The Awakening

“The dead rise not to live again, but to remember who they are.”

Realm: Whisper & Shadow
Symbol: Spirits ascending in dawnlight, hands reaching toward a horn of silver sound
Meaning (Upright): Renewal, reckoning, rebirth, high calling
Meaning (Reversed): Denial, fear of judgment, stagnation

Lore:
When the trumpet of the World Tree sounds, the sleeping souls of every age awaken.
They do not rise to be judged by gods, but to witness the truth of their own deeds, laid bare like constellations in the firmament.
The Awakening is not punishment - it is remembrance.
It calls the seeker to rise into their truest nature, to answer the question:
What have you become?

When drawn, it heralds a new dawn of purpose; reversed, it warns of hearts that refuse to listen to their own call.

Prophecy Verse:
"When the horn sounds, all masks fall.
The soul stands naked before its own reflection."
