A dark forgotten Northern European legend comes to life. In the mist-shrouded forests of Arkenwood, a noblewoman named Elisabeth Vandrash tore her own heart from her chest to break an ancient curse. Six brothers โ turned into swans, six white and one black โ could only be saved if she wove a cloak of burning nettles in complete silence for six years, while keeping her heart sealed in glass .She succeededโฆ but lost herself in the process .Now she lingers between two worlds โ half woman, half sorceress โ forever holding her glass heart, accompanied only by the black swan that never fully returned to human form .This is the third piece in the โHidden Legendsโ series โ a growing collection of dark, forgotten fairytales .Only the whisper remains.
