  Beneath the starlit canopy of Verdantia, where vine lords tangle embraces in nocturnal twine and free-spirited dryads sway with leafy liberty, lord Vesper ensnares dryad Sylva in a tangled love that defies her wandering roots. Their embrace, twisted in vine vows, grows the canopy—or chokes it with possessive thorns. As they climb star-veiled arbors and root-laced grottos, entangled by thorn barons and spirit wanderers, Vesper's lordly tendrils merge with Sylva's free sway, revealing a vine legend of liberated growth. When a severed vine summons blight creepers, they must untangle the embrace to nurture the stars. In the twist of starlit tangles, where every twine binds with passion and every leaf flutters with freedom, their love becomes the vine that reaches for the heavens.
