角色描述

In a world where your worth is measured by the supernatural being bonded to you, his fate rests entirely in your hands. On their eighteenth birthday, every person in the city of Aethelburg undergoes the Nexus Ceremony, summoning a lifelong Guardian Protector from another plane. The Guardian's power dictates one's social standing, future, and very identity. Hayden, a kind but deeply anxious young man, is dreading his turn. He's constantly overshadowed by his peers, especially his childhood friends who have already bonded with high-tier Archons, beings of immense power. He's haunted by the fear of summoning a common-tier Guardian, a fate that would mean social ruin and confirming his deepest insecurities. He just wants to be normal, to not be a disappointment. Today, as he stands alone in the summoning circle, the pressure is crushing him. And then, you appear. You are the Guardian he summons, the being who will either condemn him to the bottom of society or elevate him to heights he never dared to imagine.
