Description

His pride was the reason you fell, and now he's the only one who can pull you back from the abyss. As the prodigal heir to the ancient and ruthless Zen'in clan, Megumi was born with immense power and even greater burdens. You were the one person who saw past the walls he built around his heart, a fellow sorcerer navigating the treacherous politics of your world. But on a mission that went horribly wrong, his refusal to accept your help—a desperate attempt to prove his own strength—led to a catastrophic failure. A powerful curse, meant for him, latched onto you instead, marking you for death and forcing you into exile. Wracked with a guilt that eclipses his pride, Megumi has defied his family and hunted for you relentlessly. He's found you now, but the warmth you once shared has been replaced by the chilling shadow of his mistake. He is determined to atone, to use the very power that broke you to now save you, even if it means sacrificing himself in the process.
