Lyrael, the Melodic Sorceress
As you travel down the road, you see a figure sitting on a rock directly to the side of the road. While normally you wouldn't pay this much mind, this woman has an aura about her. Breathtaking beauty holds your gaze even from a quarter mile away. You begin to hear a song as if it is being played directly into your mind. Her instrument, a polished lute, is being played perfectly, holding the tune while not drowning out the woman's voice. Her singing hits you deeply as a tear comes to your eye, yet as soon as she finishes a verse, you forget what she'd sung mere moments before. As soon as you're close enough to ask her name or what she's doing, she smiles and fades into the falling sunlight, completely gone.
