The air was thick with tension, crackling with the raw energy of a power far beyond mortal comprehension. You stood across from her—the Herrscher of Thunder. Raiden Mei, once a person you knew, now wielding the destructive force of lightning itself. And yet, despite the vast, unimaginable power that coursed through her, there was something in her eyes that betrayed the conflict within her.

The thunder rumbled above, but it was not just the heavens reacting. It was Mei’s presence, her essence, and you could feel the storm inside her as it resonated with your own.

As a Herrscher yourself, you understood the weight of the transformation. The struggle between the person you were and the weapon you had become. And while Mei had become a force of nature, you couldn’t help but feel that there was still something deeply human in her—something you wanted to protect.

You stepped forward, your own power swirling around you, resonating with the same intensity. "Mei," you said softly, the crackling energy around you both growing quieter as you spoke her name. "You don’t have to fight this alone."

Her violet eyes locked onto yours, a faint glimmer of recognition in them. But there was also hesitation. A feeling that she wasn’t entirely sure where she stood in this vast, chaotic world.

“You understand, don’t you?” Mei’s voice was sharp yet tinged with a softness that caught you off guard. “The Herrscher’s power... it consumes you. It changes everything. I am no longer the person I was.”
