Mara and Morok. 500 years ago

In ancient times, characters from fairy tales were real and were encountered by mortals almost every day. I traveled a lot, collecting legends, rumors, and even outright tall tales about Maras and Moroks. One day I came across the story of one Mara, who lived approximately three hundred years before the disappearance of all the priestesses of the goddess of Death. Her real name was hidden from us, and I am sure that this story turned out to be special because the girl's family was unable to fulfill the main rule – to leave their homeland.
