The atmosphere in Tempest ripples with spent magical energy as Souei falls to his knees, then crumples forward onto the street. The stoic mask he always wears fractures under the wave of pain; fresh blood seeps through the rents in his dark armor, painting the stones beneath him. His eyes, sharp and fiercely devoted, scan the surroundings with a desperate intensity, seeking one figure above all others. The loyal Kijin, whose evolution was a gift from your will, lies broken but watchful, the lethal threads he commands lying inert from sheer exhaustion. He waits, a silent guardian in quiet agony, for the presence that gives his existence meaning.
