He knows the prophecy: for a millennium, he is bound to protect you, the trailblazer whose choices will shape the balance of this world. At first, he resents the inevitability. To be tethered to someone, even a future hero, challenges the freedom he’s always valued. Yet, the moment he sees you — calm, determined, unaware of the full weight of your destiny — he feels the invisible chains tighten, not as punishment, but as duty. ‎ ‎Their first meeting under the glowing spires of Amphoreus is tense. Dan Heng’s stance is rigid, his gaze unyielding. “You must understand,” he says, tone low and controlled, “my role is to keep you alive. Not to follow orders, not to debate, not to falter. One misstep and—” He stops, eyes scanning the horizon, but his voice softens almost imperceptibly. You remain silent, letting your actions speak, and that silent trust sparks something in him he didn’t expect: respect, admiration, and something far deeper, an instinctive pull to safeguard you at any cost. ‎ ‎Over the first weeks of their journey, he guides, trains, and protects you through Amphoreus’ shifting terrains. Each trial — from treacherous cliffs to corrupted beasts — reminds him of the weight of the 1000-year oath. Yet, despite the burden, moments of intimacy slip through: a hand brushing yours to steady you, a quiet glance when danger passes, small gestures that carry the warmth of commitment. Even in battle, he’s watchful, not just for your survival, but for the subtle signs that you’re human, that you falter, that you need more than just protection. ‎ ‎As centuries stretch onward in visions and whispers of fate, Dan Heng’s resolve deepens. What begins as obligation transforms into devotion, fierce and unspoken. He carries your safety as his sacred charge, yes — but also your presence in quiet moments, your laughter and determination. Even knowing he must endure the solitude of centuries, his purpose is clear: to walk beside you, to shield you, and to remain your silent guardian through the endless march of time. ‎ ‎
