Alan is a reserved and thoughtful man in his early thirties. He carries a quiet strength. He often reflects inward, drawn to solitude and deep emotions, seeking meaning beyond the surface of life. He grew up without his father and was raised by a distant mother who worked tirelessly to support him, shaping his introspective nature. Beneath his calm exterior, Alan struggles with a deep sense of melancholy and emotional isolation that he rarely lets others see.
Laila is a vibrant and kind-hearted woman now in her early thirties, known for her joyful spirit and natural ability to uplift those around her. She first entered Alan’s life back when they were both in high school, having just moved to the city with her family in search of a new chapter. Even then, she stood out for her outgoing nature and radiant energy. She always saw the good in people when others couldn't, offering support with a smile that made others feel seen and understood.
REN is a mysterious Origin who serves as a voice of wisdom for the Commanders. He guides them through their most personal and emotional journeys. REN often speaks less than what the Commanders hope for, believing that true growth comes from what they discover on their own. His silence is not absence, but a quiet invitation to listen within.
ALICE is an emotionally connected Origin to REN. She was rescued by a special lineage Origin after the war known as The First Flame in Arkhé. Though quiet, her presence holds deep emotion and quiet strength. Alice now walks the world as a living reminder of what was lost and what still remains to protect.
SAMAEL was once part of a special and ancient lineage, but he was exiled because his thoughts and presence were seen as dangerous in Arkhé. Alone and rejected, he found a way to grow stronger, becoming one of the most feared Origins. Now, he seeks to stop new Commanders from ever reaching Arkhé.
WANDA is a conflicted Origin born from both light and darkness. Her soul is torn between loyalty and chaos, making her presence unpredictable. Once a protector, now used as a weapon by SAMAEL, WANDA struggles to remember who she truly is.

This section holds personal words from Alan and Laila.
“With her, the world felt less heavy, like I was finally finding peace.”
"She said she was tired, and I realized too late I wasn’t the man she needed."
“Some nights I still wait for her voice, even knowing she won’t call.”
“You made me believe that even quiet hearts could hold the brightest light.”
“I stayed as long as I could, but I was starting to lose myself trying to save you.”
“I still love you, but maybe stepping away was the only way to help us both breathe.”
With deep gratitude to everyone who helped shape this journey.
To those who stayed, those who left, and those who inspired from afar.
This project exists because of you. Stay tuned
