Description
This is a picture of a wizened old woman who is much more than she appears.
The image was created with Midjourney, then tweaked and modified with Photoshop.

Here is a short story (created by A.I.) about her:

The landscape was vast and desolate, stretching on for miles and miles, dotted with jagged rocks and the occasional twisted tree. It was here, at the edge of the world, that the old woman known as the Memory Keeper made her home.

She was a wizened old crone, with skin like leather and eyes that had seen too many years. Her arms were lined with scars and her flesh seemed to be decaying in places, as if she were slowly wasting away. She wore old, tattered clothing, and around her neck hung layers of large, heavy beaded necklaces.

The Memory Keeper spent her days sitting on a rock, staring off into the distance with a somber, wise expression. She never spoke, and the few who ventured near her were too afraid to approach.

One day, a young traveler named John came upon the Memory Keeper. He had heard tales of her and her mysterious powers, and he was determined to learn the secrets she held.

As he approached, he saw the old woman sitting on her rock, staring out into the void. He hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath and approached.

"Excuse me," he said, his voice trembling slightly. "Are you the Memory Keeper?"

The old woman did not respond, but she turned her gaze to him and nodded slowly.

"I've heard that you have the power to see into the past," John said, his voice full of hope. "Is it true? Can you help me find out what happened to my family?"

The Memory Keeper nodded again, and John felt a shiver run down his spine. He had heard that the old woman's powers came at a price, but he was willing to pay it if it meant finding out the truth.

The old woman gestured for John to sit down beside her, and he did so, his heart pounding. The Memory Keeper reached out a gnarled hand and touched his forehead, and suddenly John was transported to another time and place.

He found himself standing in a small village, surrounded by people who looked like they were from a different era. He saw his parents, young and vibrant, and he felt tears well up in his eyes.

But as he watched, he saw the village come under attack. He saw his parents killed before his very eyes, and he felt a pain in his heart that was almost too much to bear.

When the Memory Keeper withdrew her hand, John was back on the rock, staring at the old woman with wide, tear-filled eyes.

"Thank you," he whispered, his voice choked with emotion. "Thank you for showing me the truth."

The Memory Keeper nodded once more, then turned her gaze back to the horizon. John stood up and walked away, his heart heavy with the weight of what he had seen.

But as he walked away, he couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. The images he had seen had been too real, too vivid. And the pain he had felt... it was unlike anything he had ever experienced before.

Suddenly, he realized the truth. The Memory Keeper had not shown him the past. She had shown him an alternate reality, one where his parents had been killed and he had been left alone.

And now, he was trapped in that reality, unable to return to the life he had once known. He fell to his knees, overcome with grief and despair.

The Memory Keeper had taken his memories, and with them, his very soul. And now, he was doomed to wander the desolate landscape, a ghost of his former self, for all eternity.
