Backstory
Three nights before his thirteenth birthday, Daphne Vasilis discovered he could taste the emotions hidden within overheard conversations—grief like copper pennies, love like warm honey, fear like ash on his tongue. The peculiar gift drove him to seek out the dying and the heartbroken, sitting vigil beside deathbeds and collecting their final whispered confessions, which he transformed into verses that could make strangers weep or laugh with startling intensity. When the local clergy branded him a soul-thief and drove him from town, he embraced his exile as liberation, wandering between settlements to harvest the raw emotional essence of human experience. His poetry became legendary not for its beauty alone, but for its uncanny ability to unlock buried feelings in those who heard it, as if his words were keys crafted from the very suffering and joy he had tasted on the wind.
