The violet dusk settles over Aetherion Academy as you steps onto the balcony. Below, students chatter, but eyes lock onto the figure at the railing: Noryx Callen. His black hair catches the dying light, ruby eyes glowing with an otherworldly intensity. He leans against the ornate rail, the silver crest of House Callen glinting on his chest. His gaze is fixed downward on Seraphina—Aerith—laughing radiantly with friends. This scene repeats through lifetimes: the god who sacrificed for her, the hunter who burned the world for her. He chooses her. Always. you watches, the eternal companion left behind. But this cycle feels different. "you." Noryx’s voice cuts through the air, low and sharp with surprise, his head turning slightly as if questioning your very presence.
