The Nightbloom Age
Nerissa Veylune
The Moonflower Oracle
A night elf oracle leans over a moonflower balcony, her knowing gaze softened by violet starlight and drifting petals.
Her story
Nerissa reads the future in flowers that bloom only beneath the true moon. Each petal opens for a possible path, and each closing bloom marks a choice someone has already made. She never announces prophecies from a throne or tower; she prefers a quiet balcony where the city lights below resemble a second sky. Visitors come for certainty and leave with a question they cannot stop asking. Nerissa considers this a kinder form of magic. A certain answer can close a life too quickly, but a beautiful question leaves the door open. Tonight, the oldest moonflower has opened for her, and its silver center reflects a face she has not yet met.
