WuWa OC — Crescent!

Birthday: 20th July

Sex: Female

Country: Unknown

Influence: The Fractsidus

Crescent, one of the Fractsidus Overseer known as The Defier, the one to form a connection with the whole world around her and yet chose to become its oblivion.

Graceful and yet lethiferous are her moves as she forgets herself in an elegant dance, bringing what is dead to life and what is yet alive to death. Despite being granted the ability to morph the frequencies to any of her likes, the only path she chose was decay and only decay.

Opalescent Everlasting Glow

Crescent — Original Outfit

One of the few outfits Crescent prefers to keep as it was tailored specifically for her with the use of fabrics that aren't produced anymore. A silver trinket there and a chain here enough to make her stand out among her colleagues as she drives the world to its perfect end.

Exclusive Dish

Lunar Cake

A sweet treat that was previously famous in the old village of Crescent. Fit for a quick bite and both savory which made it a great snack for any possible time, alongside with the variety of different fillings. Easy to make and easy to eat.

Forte Examination Report - Iridescent Oblivion

Evaluation Basis: [Resonance Assessment RA-F2007-G]

The exact timing of Resonator Crescent's Awakening is unclear. Her Awakening granted her the ability to manipulate the frequencies surrounding her, whether it's an inanimate being or a living creature.

Crescent's Tacet Mark is located right on the middle of her clavicle. Post-Awakening examination has identified specific alterations in her physical attributes. These include her hair color from jet black to pristine white and a strange unidentified mark across her left cheek.

The Resonance Spectrum Pattern of Crescent mirrors no known patterns completely. Further testing revealed a 25% exceeding similarity of another sample, marked as "Void Plenilune". Further investigation of the samples required alongside a study of the exact trigger for the Resonator's Awakening.

Resonator Crescent possesses the unique ability to manipulate the frequencies of all objects around ber to whatever state she desires either via touch or not. Exact parameters of the range of this ability was not recorded and assumed to be 30 meters radius at minimum. Another peculiar characteristic of her Forte is the ability to revert frequencies' state from decay to flourish and opposite, effectively bringing previously dying creatures back to life. Further research demonstrated repeated use of such ability on one object.

Analysis of test samples has revealed a consistent, flat Rabelle's Curve followed by a sharp ascent and stabilization. Therefore, Crescent is identified as a Mutant Resonator.

[OVERCLOCK DIAGNOSTIC REPORT]

Resonator Crescent's waveform graph shows sawtooth fluctuations. The pattern of Time Domain is regular, and the peak values start at the beginning of the pattern and stay constantly high.

Resonant Criticality: Relatively low.

Resonator Crescent has a documented history of Overclocking with several cases reaching "extremely severe" tier, however, despite all that Resonator Crescent had no permanent damage from each case. Further research on the records alongside a proper examination required.

"Scream With Despair — One, Two, Three!"

Crescent. She became the blessed child of her village after that fateful night she gained her Awakening. The same fateful night when miles away from her, Sentinel Jué defeated the Threnodian and yet, the work was done already. Being captivated by the horrifying and yet captivating look of the once so powerful Void Plenilune, as soon as the horrifying wave of clashing frequencies reached her, it seemed to envelop her completely, forcing Crescent to drop to her knees and break into a coughing fit before she ran to the small house left by her parents and immediately locked the door, only now realizing that it was the strange Waveworn Phenomenon that people of her village mentioned.

After rather quickly calming down, she slowly rose and glanced at the only mirror and nearly collapsed, shaken by her own image. Her once lustrous black hair changed its hue to a glimmering white and a strange small Tacet Mark was glowing right in the middle of her clavicle. In panic, she couldn't understand what happened to her. Did she suddenly turn sick? Was it her hallucinations? She couldn't understand before running outside and stumbling upon a small bird that still stayed up despite the night. Seeing something that was finally familiar, Crescent gently picked up the creature only to watch it suddenly shriek and drop dead as it seemed to turn into a Cruisewing. The already scared child that Crescent was started panicking even more before she tried to concentrate and all of a sudden, the morphing corpse was brought back to its previous state, chirping heavily. Dropping the bird and letting it fly away, Crescent stumbled backwards, mumbling to herself.

"B.. But I didn't want it to die.. What's going on? What happened to me? No, no, I need to wait until tomorrow and ask the elders about all this.."

***

A large thud was heard. And yet another one soon. The silent house where Crescent was sitting all alone was often visited by the other villagers who seemed to go straight to her in case of any major problem. And of course, as someone who cherished all those who she grew up with, Crescent couldn't refuse a single request. Even if she was exhausted, even if she felt powerless, even if she felt disgusted by the whole picture in front of her — she continued working. When her close ones spread word about her divine ability to manipulate frequencies into various matter and state, the visits to her house became even more often.

After a while, a horrifying case was brought upon her eyes. Instead of a casual pet, animal or an Echo that she was asked to bring back, Crescent saw a corpse in front of her. A child corpse. At first, she couldn't bear it and even tried to reject any pleads only to hear the wanderer beg for help and speak of how famous she became among the vast lands. Eventually, Crescent gave in and brought the body to her guest room, setting it onto the soft padding and asking for any items of the child where residual reverberations could be also left. Looking at the small toys and then at her arms, she looked back, her glare nearly piercing the guest of her house.

— Such tremendous help is not for free. I expect generous payment which won't be Shells only, but also prayers to the Sentinel for my well-being. — she spoke, her voice calm and collected.

Upon completing her work, she watched as the once cold body started becoming warmer. The heart once again beating and the child soon opened his eyes, coughing heavily before Crescent instantly helped him up and looked through all vitals. For the very first time, instead of bringing back a lower creature she effectively "rewind" human frequencies even it took her much longer.

Of course, for such hard work she was paid generously but even that wasn't enough for her. She raised the prices and the clients were still there. She said that she required more time to restore her strength and people still waited, stay in her village. She looked at herself in the mirror and at the Tacet Mark. Three. Two. One. She screamed. She shouted with all the despair that was in her body to the brim until she couldn't no longer. She breathed heavily and heard knocking on the door, of course, her dearest close ones would want to check up on her.

And so, she put on a soft smile. She restored her voice through a cough and brought back her normal look. She couldn't let herself break down. She couldn't give up that easily. She needed to prove even to herself that she was the one who will be always tugging the strings of her fate and not anyone else.

"'Eternity' Was a Short Word"

The night was coming just as she finally finished with the last client for today and went searching around her old house for the only mirror that she hid a long time ago. Crescent was quite meticulous about her appearance as she did all she could to make sure that her youthful and charming look stayed with her even if it meant hours upon hours of self care. But today it was different. Today she was going through all her belongings until she finally found that damned mirror and looked at herself. There it was — she was getting older terribly fast even if she expected to stay youthful and bright as a resonator.

Crescent's grip became harder as she stayed still and kept glaring at herself. It wasn't in her plans. It was never in her plans and any of the possible outcomes she imagined. Of course, she had to act fast and usual make-up wouldn't help this time. Everyone would be telling her to embrace it and keep on telling her that she's beautiful, but that's not what she wanted. What she wanted was eternal life, even if it meant trying so hard that she might eventually break down. She had no one to reach out to, no help, never knew a single route anywhere and had no idea what to do until one peculiar thought crossed her mind as she set the mirror away.

"Use your own Resonance Ability on yourself."

And it was a brilliant idea until she actually tried and yelped from pain. Each and every sensation brought her pain to the point where she gasped air and fell to the ground, shaking and breathing heavily, her eyes wide open. By stars, how could she know that attempting such on herself would actually break her down? Unfortunately, she wasn't done yet. Once the trembling in her body was gone, she once again hugged herself tightly, letting the strange flowing streams of white and scarlet energy envelop her tightly and gritted her teeth, trying to withstand the pain as much as possible before another yelp escaped her lips. No, she couldn't do this. At least not now and not today. Her muscles were sore and strained, her mind was foggy and she could barely understand what's going on and how to focus clearly. And in that state, as she barely made it to her own bed, Crescent lied down, immediately passing out right the next second.

The following several months, she spent each evening experimenting on herself, seeing how much she can handle and how far she can go. Every night was a test of strength which became progressively better even though she had to explain to her dearest ones that she was totally alright and her shouting didn't mean that she actually needed help. And after all, she made a huge step in her experiments. She looked down at her arms which were no longer trembling. She glanced at herself in the standing mirror, gently touching her face.

And there it was. The perfect youthful look, her scarlet eyes shining like two rubies and her white hair glistening in the radiant moonlight that broke through her window. Crescent smiled with genuine happiness for once in a long time, even if it reeked of madness, even if the reason was horrifying, she kept on smiling. No longer Crescent would fear the time itself and the decades that passed by her for now even spending an eternity in this damned world sounded more than short. All she knew is the vast potential of her actual Resonance Ability that she deeply needed to explore and the fact that time was no longer her enemy.

"Do not compare me to anyone."

Another night, another time at the Fractsidus headquarters when Geshu Lin and Scar were sitting at the opposite corners of the recreation room after nearly killing each other for the last time. Of course, Geshu Lin as someone who had way more combat experience had much less damage but still glared with hatred at the man who was all beat up, bloody and still smiling like the crazy maniac he was, while feeling the blood trinkle down from his nose to his slightly open mouth. Finally, the former general stood up properly dusting himself off and stretching ever so slightly before his ashy golden gaze moved to the Overseer in front of him.

— I asked you the last time to not cling to me like a rabid dog once I'm off "duty" and you keep on doing that. Are you deaf or completely dumb? — asked the general, stepping closer and kneeling down to Scar.

— Oh, of course I'm not an idiot! But you remind me so much of Rover.. The rest of my colleagues spoke of his great powers and spirit and yet he chose to stay with those nobodies instead of joining us. But there we have you! You're even better! — answered Scar, still infatuated with the angry man in front of him.

And yet, at the words "You're even better" Geshu Lin didn't bother to reply and silently just yet and grabbed Scar's hair in a fist, turning him around in one move as he suddenly smashed his head against the wall. One smash, another, third and each paired up with "Do not compare me to anyone." until Geshu Lin finished speaking and heard a rather audible crack. As expected, he didn't hold back at all and that lead to Scar's skull nearly getting an actual crack, however, as a resonator, it was more of a extremely painful bruise rather than a crack. Looking at the result of his beautiful "work", Geshu Lin immediately dropped the bloody mess that Scar became and sighed heavily, not even bearing to drag him over to his dearest caring colleagues and merely shouted "Scar is in the recreation room, do something about him!" before heading to the Presidency's office in order to leave this place for a while once again and rest from the maniacs in red that always surrounded him.

This is a translation of a CN fanfiction, original writing style still kept the same!

OG Author: http://xhslink.com/o/8fHf9afe1wo

I saw Qiuyuan for the first time in the bamboo forest.

He leaned against the green bamboo and closed his eyes to refresh his thoughts.

"Um... Sorry...?"

He didn't open his eyes, just tilted his head.

“Is there a problem?“

At that moment, several Tacet Discords jumped out of the forest.

I subconsciously grabbed my sword.

He didn't move.

It was only when the Tacet Discords flashed before him that his bamboo stick made a soft sound.

A cold light flashed.

In response, the Tacet Discords dissipated.

“One strike to end it all.” he said carelessly.

From that day on, my gaze always followed him unconsciously.

On the shopping street of Jinzhou City, I saw him contemptuously looking at the dazzling array of goods, but sometimes he would stop for a while in front of the aroma of food in the Panhua restaurant.

In the Luxian Tea House, I gathered the courage to sit in front of him.

"I will treat you to tea!”

“Alright."

He listened calmly to me about what I had seen and heard during my journey, about the various people and things I had encountered, and occasionally nodded.

His world always seems so quiet.

We walked by the lake together.

I looked at his black hair blowing in the wind.

"Qiuyuan, do you... travel alone?”

“Yes."

"Don't you feel... lonely?”

He was silent for a long time, so long that I thought he wouldn't answer.

"I'm used to it.”

I suddenly wanted to immerse myself in his quiet world.

The turning point came unexpectedly.

A powerful Tacet Discord appeared in the side yard, and its howl distorted space around, creating countless Tacet Discords that made it difficult for people to distinguish between reality and illusion.

The Midnight Rangers and I were trapped.

"Damn it... I can't find the real one at all!"

Just as I was about to attack the Tacet Discord, a force pulled me aside.

It was Qiuyuan.

“Close your eyes." he said.

“What?"

"Your eyes can deceive you.”

I looked at his calm face and decided to trust him.

I closed my eyes.

The world instantly calmed down, leaving only the sound of the wind, the roar of the Tacet Discord, and his calm breathing.

"Three steps to the left, draw your blade."

I did so. The blade felt like it was hitting a solid object!

"Step back, he's behind you."

He guided my every move, and his every judgment was extremely accurate.

"Now."

The sharp blade in the bamboo stick was once again exposed.

I only heard a piercing scream, and the surrounding pressure suddenly disappeared.

I opened my eyes.

The sky was like a clear glass, and suddenly, the strange retroact rain began to fall.

The raindrops slowly rose up and finally flowed into the Etheric Sea.

“Qiuyuan! Look! It's so beautiful...!" I excitedly took his hand and pointed to the sky.

He turned to me with a gentle smile on his face that I had never seen before.

"Judging by your voice, I can be sure that it must be beautiful."

My heart suddenly fluttered.

"... You." I think I understood.

His eyes, always clear and cold, were unfocused as the light from this spectacle did not reflect off them, and I saw him for the first time.

"I can't see."

He said calmly and seriously.

“ But...” he took my hand, squeezing it very tightly.

"With you, I can 'see' everything."

[primus-lan-qing]

"It's on a special place?"

Geshu Lin — the young prodigy who has high hopes of becoming the best general of the Midnight Rangers Jinzhou has ever seen and yet there was something that even made people like him weak to the bone. What exactly was it? Of course his authority that stood higher than him in ranks and in his case it was the investigating censor, Qiuyuan. Censors were said to be mighty soldiers who could pulverize all evil that dares to step into Huanglong, whether it is a group of Tacet Discords, malicious groups of exiles or resonators who decided to go against the government. Qiuyuan out of all his comrades was the most famous one for certain perks and one of them was his sight, or to be more clear, the lack of it. The whole idea that a man couldn't even see his own enemy and the world around him truly and yet stayed so strong that he gained fame for defeating all his enemies with one strike drove young Geshu Lin wild, even after the time when he saw the censor with his own eyes for the first time. And yet, there was something that was quite off with him — his lack of any open skin on his body except for his arms and neck. Over the several years of serving in Midnight Rangers, Geshu Lin learned one thing about resonators and it is that their Tacet Marks should be always seen at all times for proper resonance energy output, however, he had never seen one on Qiuyuan. Not on his neck, his face, his nape, ever his hands seemed clear off them, although he usually kept them to himself.

And now, another day and Geshu Lin had another chance to work alone with Qiuyuan while his soldiers were still recovering from a gruesome battle near a Tacet Field. At first, the general didn't even talk much with the censor and only asked about his work before shutting up, yet the question still stayed in his head and curiosity peaked inside him. With enough bravery, knowing that he's still going just a bit faster, he finally decided to break the silence.

— Xiansheng Qiuyuan, I haven't seen your Tacet Mark anywhere, you don't have it at all? Or maybe.. It's in a special place? — asked Geshu Lin, not even waiting for answer and merely expecting another lecture on politeness.

But what he didn't expect is to hear the steps coming closer terribly quickly and a hand on his throat before he felt an electric current run through his body. For sure Geshu knew what skin-to-skin contact of Tacet Marks does to people, but the whole sensation of the strong palm that was grasping his throat tightly, causing him to jerk his head up and let out a gasp that shortly turned into a quiet moan that escaped his lips, was making his entire body weak for seconds before he finally felt Qiuyuan let go off him as the man didn't say a word besides "Satisfied?", whilst he waited for Geshu Lin to go back to normal in a few seconds and soon continued walking right besides him. The general, however, was still perplexed from what just happened as he seemed to still feel the slightest blush on his cheeks from the blood rushing to his face first and now he felt the same heat pooling just lower his abdominal area. Despite all, he managed to clear his throat and to speak up again.

— I.. Apologize for my extreme curiosity, xiansheng. I overstepped my boundaries. — managed to blurt out the general.

Nevertheless, he didn't get a clear reply from Qiuyuan next and spent the whole mission in complete silence, only hearing the censor's orders to move to a certain direction to dodge another unexpected Tacet Discords' attacks and spent the whole time returning back to the Midnight Rangers base in the same complete silence despite the embarrassment that he couldn't get out of his head even though his expression stayed completely nonchalant and visually, you wouldn't even guess just what exactly happened between those two.

[primus-lan-qing]

"A Familiar Frequency"

P.S. The first part of the work takes place in the past. The second part is present. Mind that.

The white-haired young man quickly noticed the censor who finally arrived at the Midnight Rangers base. He was much taller than Geshu Lin and his position also held more authority over the poor general who was assigned to his position by the capital. Despite his blindness, beneath those white lifeless eyes there was immense wisdom and power that made everyone instantly go at awe once he arrived. And unfortunately, Geshu Lin wasn't an exception as he's been watching over Qiuyuan for a long time, taking every chance for even a short discussion on military matters or small talk about the weather despite all. And today he once again saw the man who arrived at the base and yet stayed outside, checking on the soldiers who were also pleased to see such an intimidating, yet caring figure at Jinzhou. Finally, Geshu Lin actually made his move and moved downstairs, a spark appearing in his eyes as he walked towards Qiuyuan.

— Xiansheng Qiuyuan, I've gathered more intel on the situation with the Tacet Discord on both Norfall Barrens and Desorock Highland. Would you like to hear it? I've also brought your favorite tea. — spoke the young man rather enthusiastically, standing straight in front of the censor.

— Of course. Please, meet me at your office after you're done with the preparations. — the man replied.

Qiuyuan quickly wandered away, not even saying another word as he seemed to be deep in thought and not even minding the fact that such a minor figure even tried to find his favorite tea or arranged a one on one meeting with him. To him it didn't seem like any kind of special treatment but mere politeness for he never really thought about the fact that people could actually treat him differently or even have feelings for him. At least not the generals or else.

***

— ..If you don't kill me, sooner or later I'll wipe all of you out. You hounds of those corrupt officials and those damned Tacet Discord you vowed to execute..! — spoke Geshu Lin, nearly barking like a mad dog.

Qiuyuan didn't flinch a bit, his hand still resting on the hilt of his sword as he listened to the man in front of him. And yet, despite all these harsh words, there was something terribly familiar in him. Those faint frequencies that were yet to decay and still stayed around, the ones he felt in Geshu Lin just when he met him for the first time. To the world the former general of the Midnight Rangers may have changed, but to him he was still the same.. Even if it was hidden deep inside him.

— ... You've grown much more than I expected. And yet you still keep the same scent when I first met you. Whether it's only in your head or your heart, I'll be taking them both. — answered the censor, merely taking a step forward.

He didn't need such brute strength or show of power to actually overtake the general in front of him as he blocked several incoming slashes with ease, perfectly feeling where each frequency was about to appear and moving a bit just in time to dodge another hit before he moved backwards and heard Geshu Lin almost roaring like some wild beast. Indeed, the same passion for battle stayed inside him and yet directed not in the right way, not the way it could help people and actually save tens of soldiers instead of merely forcing them to meet their own death as they protected their homeland.

Yet another incoming blow and Qiuyuan seemed to move like the wind itself, suddenly unsheating his sword and making just a few moves before he heard a wet noise and finally sensed the familiar scent of iron, his sword slashed around Geshu Lin's still beating heard almost perfectly before he pressed it against his neck. His free hand grabbed the general's head and threw it back, pressing him against his shoulder and not letting him move before he landed the final slash, beheading Geshu Lin completely and managing to not hit the hair.

The rest of the limp body dropped to the ground nearly instantly. Qiuyuan grabbed the head by the hair, lifting it up and inhaling the iron scent of the blood dripping on the ground. Sheathing his sword, he finally used his other hand to lift up the bangs from Geshu Lin's forehead and planted a gentle kiss on top of the skin that was quickly turning cold before carefully arranging them back and closing the man's eyes. He felt the same frequency he encountered when they met for the first time and had the same warmth spreading all across his body. Although it may have been a fainting reverberation of the corpse, it was the very last time Qiuyuan actually felt love from someone managed to reciprocate it before he left the body to rot and dragged Geshu Lin's sword and head back to the capital of Huanglong, Mingting.

Thoughts: I

Why did I start travelling around the world? Well, it is only by wandering across the whole planet we can find all of its wonders. Although my home city was truly mesmerizing, I couldn't stay there forever. I cherished my people and how safe it was, but the world outside was also tantalizing. Aren't you fascinated by those countless rivers, endless valleys and towering fells? Not created by the human hand and yet.. So magnificent.

Thoughts: II

I've been watching you for a while and I'm surprised how cautious you are of your own kind. Even surrounded by countless different people, you choose to stay alone even when every other nation and city welcoms you with open arms. Truth be told, I should be jealous of that. Before I left my city.. I never saw the outside world or knew people from there. I was told that it's dangerous and even deadly, that I can't trust anyone here or get close to them if I go here alone. As my mentor once told me.. "If you fall in love, you will truly become alone" even if your intention was the opposite.

Thoughts: III

Stop staring at me. Weren't you taught it's impolite and shows how barbaric you are? What is it that bothers you? Ah.. My ears. It's merely a nice feature I've gotten as I tried to blend into your lively human society. Ah-ah, no more questions. You're out of time.

Thoughts: IV

I'm curious about this.. What will be your next destination and why? After all, each human has a reasoning behind their actions and words. As for me, I'll stay here for a while now. I've seen the great mountain Firmament, the thriving and yet so harsh Fortress of Jinzhou, the pure waters of Riccioli and now I'm here in Laguna. I think I shall return to Huanglong next and visit Mingting. After all, it's the center that holds all the beauty, isn't it?

Thoughts: V

Huh? You noticed something weird you say? Beyond my skirt? What indecent behavior from such an astonishing traveler! Alas, you've unraveled my secret. It is a tail just as you thought. However, due to specific reasons I have to keep it hidden and away from the ground. I tend to let my Forte loose and the tip starts leaving a trail of fire everywhere I go. Oh hush now, it'll be our little secret.

Feng Hua's Hobby:

Merely traveling and observation. Don't you know how vast the world is and how much you can learn about it? Recording every single thing you saw, memorizing them and getting to know such wonderful people who carry deep history! Ah.. I wish there were much more places like Solaris-3..

Feng Hua's Trouble:

Humankind often lacks manners and reaches their hands to spots where they're not supposed to be.. Alas, violence is often not an option and I have to teach a lesson even by words and pure intimidation. It's so exhausting..

Favorite Food:

Hm.. I'd say raw meat, however those baozi with lotus seeds I tasted in Mengzhou were simply delicious! Easy to take everywhere you go and quite savory, here.. If you go there, mention my name to get a free bag of lotus seeds as a snack.

Disliked Food:

I hate all the terrible coffee and a parody of tea they serve all across Rinascita.. Especially those horrifying "energy drinks" in Septimont. It feels like mud mixed with water.. How do people here enjoy this?

Ideals:

What? I don't have any ideals that you typically think of. If the world around me is fated to be destroyed, then be it. If it finds a way to survive, then be it. As for my.. Shenanigans, it's merely for fun. If you have so many opportunities, why waste them and do nothing when even a mess can become an exciting show of emotion and unexpected turns? Ah.. You think the opposite? Well then, let's see if your fate is as clear as you think..

Chat: I

As long as I remember, I've been a bad omen ever since I've left my hometown. Everywhere I came I brought sorrow and tragedy, leaving a trail of fire behind me as a permanent mark of my presence. But years passed, I've gained control over my fierce self and trickery and.. There we met. What a pleasant surprise, huh?

Chat: II

I know everything that's happening around me. Every insignificant word, move, conversation, even a silly chitchat, I know of it all. No matter how far people go, I'll always know if they spoke filth of me. You may see it as a curse, but for me.. It's a true blessing. After all, that's how I can achieve such glorious vengeance and come after people when they expect it the least! Better think twice when you decide to mutter something out loud.

About Jinxi:

The fair loong maiden of Jinzhou? To be honest, I'm surprised that she's gone so far from a mere infant that was resurrected by the Sentinel Jiao to the magistrate of Jinzhou herself. However, even her current untrained power and wisdom is not enough to spot me or at least beat me in a fight. I'm curious what she'll make of herself in the future. Hm, maybe you'll find me in Jinzhou once when you see her accidentally tripping over?

About Fenrico:

Ah, the head of Laguna City is sure an interesting figure. Risen from ashes despite how all said that he's not fit to run and yet desired to protect his homeland even by malicious deeds. I must say, I respect how he was never deemed faulty until that "Righteous One" decided to uncover his true self with that silly elf-looking bard. Oh how great it would be to play some jokes on him.. I wonder where he rests now ever since he was said to leave for the Fabricatorium..

About Jinwei:

Why would you ever start to wonder about my mentor? I'm not even sure if he's alive right now for he's probably back in the starry sky.. He taught me a lot of valuable information and always kept me safe, but then again.. I don't know if he would be proud of me. Leaving like that even at a high position.. But I respect him for all the work he put into me.

About Rover:

For sure, you're a mysterious figure, but I doubt our paths will cross again. I've heard of you hundreds of times, seen you get hurt and start over and each time.. It was so pitiful, hahahaha. I doubt you could've handled all of this alone like you always plan to and then get asked for guidance and help.. Ahh, what a miserable creature you are, Rover.

About Xing:

... How do you know about Them? I vowed to keep my mouth shut about them and never speak a word of their true identity. You know what, this conversation is over. Begone, you fool.

[primus-lan-qing]

— Tell me, is the sunset beautiful today? — said the swordsman, tilting his head to the side as he stood in the chilly wind.

The general, that sat next to him, watching the lands beyond them from a cliff, suddenly glanced at the man. The way his brooch flickered under the various fading sunrays, how his frequent white tips of his hair seemed to turn completely golden in the gorgeous light of the sunset and how he was always so collected and yet full of confidence despite any inconvenience. He seemed to be at a loss of words as his heart seemed to rush and his mouth was left agape. The swordsman huffed, turning his head to face Jiyan, his pristine white eyes reflecting the golden rays.

— Your heartbeat quickened again. Did you notice a sudden group of Tacet Discords you haven't killed? — asked Qiuyuan, mentally preparing to get his sword ready.

— I.. No, it's not that. It's just, you're so beautiful.. More astonishing than the sunset itself.. — said Jiyan out of a sudden, not even thinking thinking twice before suddenly standing up. — Ahem. About the Tacet Discords, all of them were eliminated. You're free to go, I'll be heading towards the Overwatch base.

Qiuyuan didn't seem to even shift a bit or somehow react, his mind still focused on going through each word that the general said and how his body shifted once he clearly turned his head to face Qiuyuan. In a minute, he finally let out a chuckle, a smirk formed on his face.

— Wish I could know what beauty you're talking about, General Jiyan.. — he spoke, before leaving and disappearing with the wind.

[primus-lan-qing]

I DON'T CARE THAT 2.6 ISN'T OUT OR THAT WE DON'T HAVE AUGUSTA/IUNO PROFILE LEAKS, I'LL DO WHATEVER I WANT.

"Roi — Videoclub"

Ever since Augusta became Ephor and visited the Tetragon Temple for the first time, out of all priestesses she noticed Iuno first. Despite the similar outfits at the time, something in her made her stand out. Was it the way she acted? Was it how she seemed so bold amongst them? Despite all, something was off beyond that act. Augusta didn't see just a priestess in Iuno, she saw the same weak girl like herself when she was younger. Just like when her home got swallowed by the Dark Tide and she had nowhere to go, the most marvelous gladiators found her and lead her to Capitoline Hill. And despite the safety, despite how the city seemed to flourish and thrive, she was always alert, always scared of all who surrounded her, always ready to defend herself. However, despite such thoughts, Augusta finally took a step forward. And another. Iuno quickly noticed her, but knew that it was the Ephor herself, could she possibly do anything? Probably not. Any attack would end in her own demise or worse.. And yet, she decided to wait and see what would happen. Augusta shortly approached her and suddenly set her sword down, getting on one knee as she stood in front of the priestess.

— You are the new priestess of Tetragon Temple. May I know your name? — Augusta spoke calmly, an unusual softness echoing in her voice.

— Iuno. It is a great pleasure to meet you, Ephor Augusta. — the priestess spoke, still keeping up her bold and tough act. — Have you come here for an advice? The head Priestess Lilibeth isn't here yet, so you will have to wait.

— No. And yet.. I have no need to consult with Priestess Lilibeth. — she answered, getting up and picking up her legendary blade. — Iuno, you resemble someone who holds a brilliant future even if they may not know it. Will you serve the Temple to protect Septimont and let it shine eternally?

— Ha? Me? That's quite a statement.. — Iuno chuckled as the thoughts flooded her head all of a sudden. — .. As long as Septimont stays my home, I will protect it and keep it safe.

***

— Do you remember that time when we first met at the Tetragon Temple? — Iuno asked, looking at the sky. — I was so clueless that I didn't know what you'd do! First day at the Temple and I already see the Ephor herself.. Hahaha..

The chilly wind of Capitoline Hill passed by as Augusta stayed silent, her eyes seemed to search for something amongst the dead land beyond the borders of Capitoline Hill. The far away Sanguis Plateau reminded her of all the trials that brought her to such position, that gave her enough strength to protect all what's dear to her and never ever lose it again. And yet, the High Tide was coming soon for the first time in awhile and it stirred something inside Augusta despite her unfaltering nature. She looked at the twinkling stars, at the moon was as bright among the various clouds and then.. At the moon that was sitting besides her with a soft smile. Iuno was as careless as always. She glanced at all the various adornments on Iuno's outfit, noticing how preciously they shine under the faint moonlight despite how many times they've seen each other in the night. And then, her stare was noticed by Iuno who instantly got up and checked her silks, blinking as she talked about wondering if there's something wrong with them. Finally, Augusta spoke up as the first raindrop fell on her head.

— You're.. So beautiful. — the Ephor said as she got up and stepped over to Iuno.

— It's not like I wore something new today. Ah.. It's starting to rain. Come on. — answered Iuno before she felt a grip around her wrist.

It wasn't weak and it wasn't strong enough to hurt her, but enough to keep her in place. She looked at the Ephor that was now standing in front of her and felt a cold raindrop on her cheek and then.. Sudden warmth. It was Augusta planting the most gentle and warm kiss on Iuno's cheek. Iuno stood there in silence, completely perplexed as she felt a slight blush coloring her cheeks second by second, completely ignoring the pouring rain at this point as she nearly felt hypnotized by such careful and soft touch. Augusta set her hand on the same spot where she planted her kiss, lightly caressing it before Iuno put it away and leaned over to her, setting a kiss on the edge of Ephor's lips and looking into her eyes. The priestess' eyes seemed to shine like two beautiful gemstones in the moonlight as she watched the now shocked Augusta, who didn't expect such sudden affection.

— No matter how far you go, I'll always be there waiting for you come to me again, Augusta. — Iuno spoke, reaching out her hand to slightly tilt up Augusta's chin.

— That I can't deny, the most revered Priestess. Or should I say.. Amore mio? — asked the Ephor with a slight smile on her face.

Eventually, the two had to leave and go inside. The rain only got harder and neither wanted to become soaking wet in such cold water. Iuno had to change her clothes as her silks were all wet and only then heard Augusta calling her from the bedroom. Tomorrow would be a hard day and both needed rest. Changing into a light chiton dress, Iuno finally laid down and glanced at Augusta before their fingers were intertwined. Finally entering the land of Morpheus, they slept close to each other, cherishing one another's presence and taking a silent vow to always love and protect one another.

Unexpected Events.

Calcharo has spent countless nights with Jiyan while keeping their relationship a secret. No one ever found out and no one would as both managed to keep everything hidden even while spending each night together by chance. Everything went pretty good just until the mercenary was about to leave as usual in the early morning until he heard the general call him, asking him to come over. Once Calcharo stepped back into the bedroom, he noticed that Jiyan was quite different from what he remembered. The scales on the general's arms covered him even more and a pair of dark grey horns crowned his head whilst he laid on his back as the dragon tail hit against the bed as if Jiyan was an excited puppy rather than a human. But what was the most shocking is the sight of several quite large eggs on the sheets near the male that looked like they came out of nowhere. Calcharo was amused, to say the least, yet walked came over and hesitantly touched Jiyan's horns, slowly moving his hand down until he kneeled over and frowned slightly, trying to understand what was going on. It was the first time when he saw his lover like this and wanted to ask something just now before the general suddenly sat up on the bed and moved the eggs closer to himself.

— I understand how confused you are right now, Calcharo. It is my mistake for not telling you about this. I tend to keep my dragon nature under total control, however last night I've failed. — Jiyan spoke, as he lifted up one of the eggs. — These three.. Will be our children.

Calcharo was perplexed, as he heard such a statement that was quite bold. During his whole life, he had heard of all kinds of things and was ready to to face anything, but this was something entirely new for sure. At first, he didn't know how to react. All of a sudden, the news hit a him like a storm, leaving him momentarily speechless for a couple minutes until the mercenary straightened out, sighing. The thoughts of immediately getting rid of what would be his offspring eventually worn off as he soon realized that the sight in front of him was his new responsibility. He didn't say anything, still needing some time to think carefully about everything, yet gave Jiyan a short nod before finally leaving. The rest of the day, Calcharo seemed rather concerned to all of his subordinates as he'd constantly hear questions about his well-being and strange condition. He didn't come over to the general's place that night, only studying at the Ghost Hounds headquarters, spending the whole night as he dealt with the new documents on future commissions and other orders from all across Solaris-3.

Only after a few days, Calcharo managed to find some free time after all the hard work to visit the general once again, yet what he didn't expect was to find Jiyan still on call with one of his subordinates near a special device that kept the eyes under soft light and heaters. Once the male stepped inside, causing Jiyan to look up, he walked over to the strange construction and peeked inside, without asking anything before finally switching over to his lover and shortly stepping just closer enough to bury his face in Jiyan's shoulder. It's been a long week for both of them which they clearly understood yet didn't have to speak aloud about it. Calcharo wasn't used to talking about his job and was always rather silent and distant, but even so managed to built a strong emotional connection with Jiyan. Both stood there motionless for some time until noticing that it was almost midnight which wasn't surprising, considering how Calcharo nearly passed out only for the general to quickly catch him and carry him over to the bed. They were both tired, confused, not sure about the future or what was going to happen to their relationship, yet only one thing was clear, they'll go through all of that together.

As several months passed, Jiyan woke up in the early morning, hearing some strange noise, only to find that all of the eggs started getting cracks on them as he quickly took them out and in several minutes before him lied two newborn kids, with small scales on their arms and partially legs. He still couldn't process what just happened as he quite literally gave birth to a whole offspring which were now his and Calcharo's children. The male slightly tilted his head, wondering whatever he's going to tell his lover. That he's a father now?.. That Jiyan did the unbelievable? Alas, he didn't have enough energy for that today as it was his last weekend. Only later, he'll actually show Calcharo his kids, one of them got Calcharo's white hair while keeping Jiyan's golden eyes as the mercenary was shocked for sure, yet didn't run away or freak out. It was his family now, him, his beloved general and their children.

Love leading to Guilt.

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*

Back in the past, even when Jiyan simply joined the Midnight Rangers as a medic, he quickly became the general's favorite for his knowledge of various herbs for treatment. He seemed like a real gem or even treasure among all of his subordinates. It wasn't long before Jiyan finally gained the courage to join the troops as a soldier and actually participate in battle.

One of his first battles was a true memory. For the first time in his life he faced enemies much larger than himself that could easily crush him, but even so, his spirit never backed down. Even from afar, the general Geshu Lin watched him, not thinking about interfering as he saw the rise of the soldier that could possibly become stronger than himself. He spent hours teaching Jiyan all the possible techniques he knew and making sure that all of his moves were perfectly calculated. Not a single mistake is allowed on the battle for it can cause greater damage and they both knew that for sure. As Jiyan trained more and more, still frequently working as a medic and making sure all of his comrades are in good health, he started to notice that the general seemed to keep an eye on him. Whether on the battlegrounds or at the base, he always felt Geshu Lin watching him as if Jiyan was nothing but a prey to him. Only later, even in battle the young man would notice how little to no enemies would come near him and only at a distance, the general himself stood all in dust and torn clothes, with his blade still in his hands as he breathed heavily, looking around, making sure that he didn't miss a single enemy.

Only one rather bright noon, as Jiyan headed to the medical wing of the Midnight Rangers base, he noticed the general himself on one of the beds as he tried to sew up his own open wound. Jiyan immediately came closer with a first-aid kit as he started working on Geshu Lin's wounds in complete silence until he heard the man speak up.

— You're one of my best subordinates, Jiyan. Whether as a soldier or a medic, you have high hopes of becoming the next general once I'm too old to fight, even the strongest person can lose what makes him that way. — he spoke as he watched the other's work.

— .. I appreciate your words, general. However, I don't think flattery is allowable in the military field. Your first lesson during my training was "Forget about your own emotions and attachments". — Jiyan answered shortly, focusing more on the treatment.

— That is right, then again.. I have only one request for you, considering your work in two fields at once. — the man said as he lift up his head. — I want your heart to beat only for me.

Was that a confession? A declaration of love? Jiyan barely knew as he was stunned and finished his treatment over Geshu Lin rather quick, leaving the medical wing. Later in the evening, each base of Military Rangers got the sudden message that the Threnodian had actually awakened. This all seemed like a dream. The sudden fact that Jiyan was special to someone? The awakening of the Ovathrax? Was his own destiny trying to see if he can withstand everything that she keeps throwing at him? Possibly. Nevertheless, he got ready and shortly made it to the Norfall Barrens where most of units already arrived. It'd be his ever first battle that happened at night and no one thought that they'd have to fight against the Tacet Discords only guided by the moonlight.

The battle was hard and he saw as the strengthened by the Threnodian beasts took down his comrades one by one which already seemed the to be a horrifying sight. It wasn't long until the only event took place which others swore doesn't even exist. The retroact rain began messing with the soldiers' which made the fight even harder as countless young souls couldn't tell whether they saw their own comrades or a beast in front of themselves. The general gave his last command to stand firm, despite the rain and continue fighting.

He only noticed that Jiyan looked at him with both fear and hope in his own eyes. It was a faint smile until Geshu Lin rushed closer and closer to the main body of the Threnodian, his blade getting engulfed by the black flames as he prepared for attack. And yet he knew, none of his human strength would be enough to land a mighty blow on the enemy even if he was a resonator. He knew he had to do something greater while he still hadn't landed a single hit. All of a sudden, the same flames began covering his legs as he still kept going despite all the pain. The blaze soon began spreading to his upper body as it finally reached his head, covering him whole. Not a single human could possibly bear such horrible experience, but the general didn't seem to be human at this point. A single leap and Geshu Lin finally reached the main body of the Threnodian as his whole body was covered in the black flames. On in the battlegrounds echoed the loud and clear words "I'll burn for you!" as the general landed the nearly lethal blow on the Threnodian, disappearing from sight. It seemed like no one watched the sight happened except for Jiyan himself who saw every second, nearly mesmerized by the deed.

Despite the fact that Ovathrax seemed to back down after such a hard hit, the Tacet Discords only increased in numbers. Panic soon started to emerge in the units as Jiyan with all his remaining strength rose up and watched the winds turn his broadblade into a whole large spear. He knew that he had to do something and immediately got to the highest point available in the battlegrounds, announcing for the soldiers to retreat despite the last command. With all his might, he cleansed the way off all beasts, hoping to lead the soldiers off the grounds in such a dangerous situation. Back in Jinzhou, Jiyan was met with gratitude for such an honorable act of valuing human lives. Later, even the Sentinel himself emerged to meet the newest hero of Jinzhou and announced his next decision to select him as the new general of Midnight Rangers.

After months of his new job as a general, Jiyan was still shocked by all that happened during that terrible day. One night, he'd climb on the roof of the base as he watched the farther lands, making sure that the patrol executed each beast. Despite all the gratitude, celebration and appreciation, he still couldn't stop thinking about it all. His head tilted ever so slightly as he watched the sun set, sighing.

— Would you be proud of me right now, general? — he began, walking closer to the edge of the roof. — Would you still tell me that you want my heart to beat only for you? After all this time, I still remember watching you sacrifice your own body to the flames as you wished to protect all of Jinzhou even it meant surrendering your life to the altar of the ultimate sacrifice. Would you be angry at my decision that day? Sad? Disappointed? I can't know for sure now. I'm still worried about the Sentinel's decision although I respect it for sure.

He never got the answer or even a faint whisper in the wind which always followed him. Whether he wished to hear it or at least get a sign on how he's viewed, not a single time destiny allowed the general to understand himself. For the rest of his life, Jiyan finally acquired the companion that would never leave him and that was.. Guilt.
