Ariel never wanted to be a hero.
As a child, he witnessed his home consumed by an Abyssal Rift, his family slaughtered before his eyes. In his agony, something awakened deep within him—the voice of a goddess, ancient and powerful. His Legacy of the Moon surged forth, granting him immense power but leaving him with unbearable grief. To the world, he became a future hero. To himself, he was a failure.
Now, as a disciple of the Lightbound Order, Ariel is trained to be a warrior of balance, yet the weight of expectations crushes him. He is praised as a savior, but in his heart, he knows he was too weak to protect those he loved. Haunted by the past and uncertain of his future, he walks the line between control and destruction, between destiny and defiance.
