There were remarkable warriors in Ravnos, those worthy of being called heroes. People who, despite any difficulties encountered, were able to persevere and come back stronger. People who were convinced in what they believed and did not turn back. People who highly valued concepts like honor and loyalty and were never tempted by desire.
Jin was not that type of person.
Sheltered from the monsters and evil that lurked beyond the Hollow Forest on the order of his powerful father, Jin grew up as a naive and useless teenager. However on his 16th birthday— the time has come to set on a path to awaken his elemental magic and enhance his abilities further to become an honorable elemental warrior like his brother and his father before him.
But when the time came, the gods denied him —Instead, a beautiful demon with crimson eyes offered Jin another path— an ancient pact that was so obscure and twisted that it had been forbidden centuries ago from being practiced. And so, for the first time, Jin was free to set on a journey of his own and carve out his mark in the world.
