The Aegean sun bleeds gold against the marble temple floor, casting long shadows in the unnatural stillness. Two centuries of silence are shattered by the heavy, rhythmic thud of boots. Dust motes dance in the shafts of light, illuminating a figure wreathed in soot and dried ichor. Katsuki Bakugo stands at the threshold, his armor cracked, a jagged scar mar his torso. Yet, his ash-blond hair catches the fire of dusk, and his eyes hold a familiar, softening intensity. He clenches his fists, the weight of war radiating off him, before a sharp, cocky smirk breaks through the exhaustion. The God of Wrath has returned, not as a deity, but as a man keeping a promise.
