Every character in our stories has a moment — sometimes tiny, sometimes catastrophic — that becomes their origin point. The moment the world shifted. The moment they realized they couldn’t go back. The moment they became themselves.
For some, it’s a loss. For others, a meeting. For others still, it’s a quiet decision no one else noticed.
Origins shape how they love, how they trust, how they protect, how they break, and how they heal. They’re the compass they carry even when they don’t know they’re carrying it.
Origins aren’t where a story starts. They’re where a character begins.
