In his place stands a man forged by war, fire, and impossible choices. Yet Atua does not abandon those He calls. The bond between us has never broken. I feel it tightening with every step, pulling me back toward Amiran and a fate neither of us is ready to face. What waits ahead is not coincidence, but design.

Torn between who he was and who he must become, Amiran faces impossible choices: obey the ruthless general who tried to break him—or risk everything to hold on to what little humanity he has left.
