Restless spirit: Pacer

Restless spirit, eternally running, haunting and disoriented

Prompt: Masculine presentation, young adult, breathless and rhythmic. The voice is characterized by heavy, labored respiration and a strained, airy texture. Speech is delivered in short, urgent bursts between gasps for air. There is a sense of eternal physical exertion and disorientation. The tone is haunting but not aggressive, sounding like a fading echo of a person stuck in a loop.

Script: Still here, still running. Every turn looks like morning again, and I swear I almost remember stopping. If you know the way out, say it quick, before the trail folds back on me.
