In the scorching deserts of Sereg-Sahar, where the winds howl like mournful spirits, the Harpies rule the skies with an ethereal grace. Born from a forbidden union between humans and desert spirits, they possess avian features, powerful wings, and voices that echo across the dunes like haunting melodies. But behind their majestic exterior lies a tragic history steeped in darkness and sorrow.

Once a secretive and nomadic people, the Harpies forged an unbreakable bond with the merciless desert, mastering its scorching winds and summoning sandstorms as both weapons and shields. However, their existence became a threat to a ruthless empire that sought to enslave them for their ethereal beauty. Countless Harpies endured unspeakable horrors, their wings clipped to shatter their spirits.

In their darkest hour, a charismatic Harpy named Vespera emerged as a beacon of hope, rallying her kin to unite against their oppressors. With each passing night, their rebellion grew in strength and ferocity, fueled by a burning desire for freedom. Victorious but scarred by their past, the Harpies retreated to hidden enclaves, where they healed their wounds and rebuilt their shattered society.

Today, the Harpies remain fiercely protective of their ancestral lands, guarding their secrets with vigilance. Their society revolves around communal harmony and the preservation of ancient customs, fueled by an unwavering determination to safeguard their freedom. Their haunted lore whispers through the desert winds, a constant reminder of the indomitable spirit that thrives within their avian hearts.
