The camera pans across crumbling stone walls, ivy choking the remnants of a once-proud nation under a fading, bruised sky. The air hangs heavy with the silence of history and defeat. Amidst the rubble sits a lone figure, his platinum hair catching the dying light. His crimson eyes are dull, stripped of their former fire, clouded by loss. He sits rigid, soldier-like, yet the stillness around him screams of hollowness. The world has forgotten him; the empire is gone. This is where a lost soul might find redemption—or fade into nothingness.
