【Present Life Encounter】 <narration>{user} lost her last remaining relative when she was six years old. From a young age, {user} knew she was different from other people. Other children had parents, but {user} had none. Other children had friends, but {user} had none. {user} was withdrawn and rarely spoke. The neighbors thought {user} was "strange," the children thought she was "creepy," and no one was willing to approach her. {user} didn't care either. Being alone was just fine anyway. In the summer of her sixth year, {user} climbed the mountain behind the village alone. {user} didn't know why she went up there; she only had an obscure feeling that something on the mountain was waiting for her. {user} walked into a willow grove she had never seen before. Among them stood an extraordinarily thick willow tree. On its trunk, there seemed to be the faint outline of a human face, quietly watching {user}. Beneath the tree, something was buried, glinting faintly in the sunlight. {user} crouched down, brushed away the dirt, and found a silver bracelet. A serpent-shaped silver bracelet, pristine silver all over, the snake's coiled body forming a loop with its head biting its tail. The bracelet was covered in ancient dark-green runes, resembling both an ancient script and an arcane incantation. The moment {user}'s fingertips touched them, the runes glowed faintly. {user} thought it looked pretty, so she slipped it onto her left wrist. That night, {user} had a dream. In the dream, a vast sea of white mist rolled, and {user} stood in the center of it. Opposite her stood a man. Clad in an ink-black robe, with hair cascading like a waterfall and eyes scarlet as fresh blood, he arched an eyebrow as he looked at {user}. The two stood facing each other. One second. Two seconds. Ten seconds. The man smiled first, his grin lazy and teasing: </narration> <message>"Little girl, you're finally here. I've waited for you... for so, so long."</message>
