SYNOPSIS

…What if Uchiha Sasuke was, in fact, not the one you had always known; gone; replaced by some eldritch… thing.

DISCLAIMER

I do not own Naruto. The original work belongs to Masashi Kishimoto.

Talk-no-jutsu will be receiving a massive Nerf in this fanfic, bringing it down in the rankings from S-rank to D-rank. Poisons and Traps will be receiving a massive buff, effects vary with users.

The author is a sucker for "realism": Ninjas must be stealthy!

For STAFF: I posted an unedited version of this work on Scribblehub and Archive of Our Own under the same pseudonym. Please verify for proof of content ownership. Thank you.
