Only Nuns Model of the Month","description":"There are roads across No Man's Land that no regiment dares to claim. They are too quiet, too blackened by forgotten miracles and older curses, their stones polished smooth by wheels that have not belonged to the living for centuries. Veterans know these roads well. When the distant growl of an engine rises through the mist, they step aside without command, lower their weapons, and wait for the rider to pass.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThey call her Flamebound Alice.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eLong before she became a wandering spirit, Alice Whitmore was a British dispatch rider, entrusted with carrying messages between isolated strongholds, ruined monasteries, and forgotten outposts scattered across the endless front. She possessed neither noble blood nor great renown, only unwavering devotion and an almost unnatural gift for crossing battlefields that swallowed stronger men without leaving so much as a trace. Through artillery fire, poison fog, and fields woven with rusted barbed wire, she rode beneath the sign of the Cross, believing that every message faithfully delivered preserved another fragment of hope in a world steadily surrendering to despair.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eHer final journey led into ground abandoned by both the living and the dead.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eSome whispered that an entire company had disappeared there without leaving behind a single body. Others believed ancient relics buried beneath the trenches had been desecrated, cursing the earth itself. Alice never questioned the order she was given. She fastened a leather dispatch satchel across her shoulders, placed the small crown of thorns she always carried beneath her riding helmet, whispered a final prayer, and disappeared into the ash-grey horizon.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eShe never returned.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eYears later, wandering pilgrims found only fragments of the road where she had vanished. Her motorcycle still stood upright, embraced by coils of rusted barbed wire fused into iron as though they had melted beneath impossible heat. Upon the saddle rested nothing but a blackened skeleton crowned with thorns, its empty eye sockets forever fixed upon the road ahead. The dispatch satchel had disappeared without a trace. Whether its message was delivered, destroyed, or remains forever lost is known only to God.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eDeath should have released her.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eInstead, the same forgotten curse that gave birth to the Forgotten Host gathered another forsaken soul into its endless procession.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eNow Alice rides without destination and without rest. Flesh has long since surrendered to ash, yet sacred fire continues to burn through her hollow frame, pouring from her spine and curling around the ancient motorcycle that bears her across battlefields untouched by time. The flames consume neither steel nor cloth. They cast no warmth upon the living. Instead, they illuminate broken roads, ruined shrines, and abandoned trenches with a light that resembles the dying glow of cathedral candles.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eUnlike many spirits of the Forgotten Host, Alice is not driven by blind anguish or endless lamentation. She neither hunts the living nor seeks vengeance upon the dead. She simply follows roads erased from every map, compelled by an oath whose words have long since faded while its burden remains carved into the marrow of her soul. Every ruined crossroads seems strangely familiar. Every shattered milestone promises that the destination lies only a little farther ahead. She rides with the quiet certainty of one who believes that somewhere beyond the smoke and silence, someone is still waiting for a message centuries overdue.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThose who witness Flamebound Alice speak less of terror than of overwhelming melancholy. Her passing is heralded only by the low murmur of an engine that should have rusted into silence long ago and the soft crackling of sacred flame dancing across blackened bone. Even artillery seems strangely muted in her presence, as though the battlefield itself lowers its voice before a soul too faithful to surrender and too forgotten to receive peace.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eAmong battlefield priests and keepers of forgotten chronicles, there persists a quiet belief that Alice never truly lost the dispatch she carried.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThey claim it remains hidden somewhere beyond mortal sight, preserved within the very flames that consume her. Whatever words were written upon that final page have become inseparable from the curse itself, transformed into a command that can neither be fulfilled nor revoked. She no longer carries a message across the front; she carries an obligation that has outlived kingdoms, armies, and memory itself.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eThere are stranger tales still. Lonely sentries speak of finding abandoned helmets neatly placed beside fallen soldiers after the Rider has passed. Pilgrims claim to have discovered broken rosaries gathered into careful piles along forgotten roads where no living traveler has walked in generations. Others insist they have seen the skeletal rider pause before ruined chapels, bowing her crowned skull in silent prayer before vanishing once more into the smoke. Whether these are acts of fading humanity or merely echoes of habits too deeply engraved to die, no one can say.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eIn the final hour before dawn, when the mist hangs low across No Man's Land and even ghosts fall silent, a ribbon of holy fire can sometimes be seen crossing the horizon. It never slows. It never turns back. It simply follows a road that no longer belongs to this world.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003ePerhaps the message she carries was delivered long ago.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003ePerhaps there was never anyone left to receive it.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eOr perhaps Heaven itself has forgotten the destination, while the messenger alone remembers that the journey is not yet complete.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003e\"Some souls are forgotten by the world. Others refuse to forget the road.\"\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003e🎨 A dream for painters and grimdark collectors\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eOne model – “Flamebound Alice.
