[WP] Nurse starts to suspect dementia patient isn't what they seem. Confusion/hallucinations/personality changes are consistent but they started speaking several ancient languages. The nurse recognizes Sanskrit and ancient Egyptian. The patient has started flashing back to parts of their past lives.

[WP] The paper hits your tongue. Time passes and starts to stretch. You feel something moving in your head. Everything turns sideways and then suddenly everything comes into focus. You know who you are and why they hid you here. Did they really think you were gone forever.

[WP] A dresser was shipped to you from your deceased uncle. The paper was slightly peeling up on the bottom of one of the drawers. Pulling back the paper you reveal an envelope. The envelope contains a letter and something in a wax seal. "Niece, no time. Break seal and take to library. Find book."

[WP] "Boo, are you really trying to scare them saying that?". Millie blushed red, well as much as she could. Since her house had been torn down she had been trying to be a good ghost and scaring people at the strip mall but no one seemed scared at all. Her old friend had come back to try and help.

[WP] After Mama's death the hole in Daddy's arm grew as big as the hole in his heart. He was easy enough to recruit. They made a fake backstory and soon enough he was a "villian" and used till he outlived his usefulness. Everyone thinks the "super heroes" protect the world but it's all a lie.

[WP] His smooth voice spoke to me of ancient names, names long forgotten. Vowels dropping octaves then back. Something insect like, dripping and wet, shot out tasting, infecting me. Shock then fear was gone. His voice c I could see him to the side in a reflection but otherwise he was gone.

[WP] There wasn't a Hero retirement plan. After the lawsuit I had nothing left except chronic pain. I had been on the streets for a couple years when I saw them bringing the bomb into the building. The physical pain had faded but I was a shell of my former self. Maybe I can be a Hero again.

[WP] The wizard chuckled and turned to me. "That isn't a path that you should take. The Shadow Lion can grant a single wish but beware what you say to him. Even a wish doesn't come without a cost." Did he think I was some simple apprentice? I was born into the royal bloodline.

[WP] Phobias are caused by events in your current or past lives. Say you drowned, in the next life you would have a fear of water. You got trapped in a burning building, a fear of fire. You are a little different, you have Panphobia. The vague and persistent dread of some unknown evil.
