Space is vast, unfathomable—an ocean of shadows where humanity has advanced without understanding what lurks in its depths. Twenty-two years ago, a planet appeared out of nowhere. It was on no star map. It had no orbit, no light, no signs of life. Yet, it pulsed. Now, the ship Astraea-7 is on its way to meet it. The mission is clear. The crew knows why they are there. All except one. Haruto never asked to be part of this exploration. But his presence is no coincidence. He is the key—though he does not know it yet. As the ship crosses the planet’s threshold, signals distort, communication breaks, and the silence is filled with something else. Then, it happens. For the first time in human history, the abyss answers. And in the depths of the shadow, a voice whispers: “Welcome home.” Thus begins Haruto’s journey of self-discovery, where he will uncover the echoes of a forgotten past and the shadow of a future he has yet to understand.

As Mia drove through the bustling city streets, her heart began to race—not from the traffic, but from the chilling knowledge that a bomb had been planted in her car. The news had come through a frantic message on her phone, a warning from an anonymous source that sent her spiraling into a state of panic. She gripped the steering wheel tightly, her knuckles turning white as she fought to maintain control. With every red light, her dread deepened. She knew that the moment she stopped the car, the bomb would detonate. The thought of leaving her Lysander behind filled her with a profound sense of sorrow. They had so many plans, dreams of a future together that now felt impossibly distant. With trembling hands, she picked up her phone and dialed Lysander’s number. “Mi Amore?” Lysander’s voice came through, laced with concern. “What’s wrong?” Mia smiled sadly, he could always tell when something was bothering her and yet she was going to leave him. “Lysander , I need you to listen to me,” she said, her voice quivering. “ You’re a very great person. I never thought I would find this type of love. I only thought love like this was just a fairytale. But you….you….” Mia paused taking in a deep breath. “Anna? What’s happening? Is something wrong? You’re scaring me.” Tears rolled down her cheeks as she turned her head towards the backseat where the bomb sat. How could she tell this to Lysander? She was going to die and leave him. She was going to leave him alone with the thoughts and dreams they shared. Silence hung heavy on the line, and Anna could almost hear the rapid beating of her heart. “I just found out…… I… I don’t have much time,” she choked out, tears streaming down her cheeks. “I’m so sorry, love. I won’t be able to see you again.” “Don’t say that! We’ll figure this out! Just tell me what’s happening? ” he urged, desperation creeping into his tone. “No, please, just listen. It’s too late now. I love you so much, and I want you to remember that. You’ve made my life so beautiful. I wish I could hold you one last time.” Her voice broke as she fought to keep her composure. “Anna, don’t—” “I have to go, Lysander . Just know that I’m always with you.” With that, she hung up, her heart shattering into a million pieces. She looked at the cliff ahead of her and stepped on the gas, the car racing towards the cliff. ************* In the heart of a bustling college town, twenty-year-old Anna Mia Harper is juggling classes, bills, and a growing sense of despair as an orphan navigating life on her own.

“Aku bisa membantumu menjadi apa pun yang kau inginkan. Apa yang paling kauinginkan?” Dia bertanya dengan suara lembut sambil menyapu rambut dari dahinya. “Kau benar-benar berpikir bahwa aku akan dengan tulus memeluk seseorang serendah dirimu?” Malu, dia menghindari tatapannya dan mengepalkan tangannya sampai memutih. “Bahkan pikiranmu konyol. Kau sangat menyadari identitasku…” “Ya, aku tahu.” “Kalau begitu katakan. Siapa aku?” Tangan yang memainkan rambutnya, bergerak turun melewati dagunya, dan berakhir di sekitar tenggorokannya. Menguji kekuatan cengkeramannya, dia perlahan mulai memberikan lebih banyak tekanan dan memaksanya untuk melihatnya. Napasnya terasa sakit saat dia mengangkatnya dengan memegangi lehernya hingga tumitnya sedikit terangkat dari lantai. “Aku juga memegang nasib adikmu di telapak tanganku.” Dia bisa melihatnya di matanya, sesuatu di dalam dirinya telah hancur. Matanya, yang dulunya menyerupai langit malam berbintang, tidak lagi memiliki bintang. Saat dia melihat cahaya di matanya memudar, dia mengendurkan tangannya. Dia tidak akan mencoba melarikan diri lagi. Dia tahu ini secara naluriah. Perasaan ini, yang mirip dengan disiram air hangat, jelas merupakan apa yang dia idamkan. Itu tidak seperti nafsu. Ya, itu jelas merupakan keinginan. Setelah dia mengakui perasaannya, dia mulai ingin memiliki seluruh dunianya. “Jika aku tidak bisa memilikimu, aku akan menghancurkanmu.”

We both wanted good for the people, for the world. We are both two sides of the same coin, yet, fate decided that he will be the one the light will shine on. Perhaps it was me too, perhaps it was my karma for flowing the rivers of blood with my sword. But still... It was fate that squashed the humanity in me first!
