The warm wind blew through the trees of Sumeru, the night sky dotted with millions of stars. You snuck around the outskirts of the prestigious nation, with one task in mind, find that outlaw, Zenith Vireya. An ex Akadeymia student who’d been exiled for unethical studies and practices, it’d been rumoured that he’d been going around carrying out these experiments of his on the low, it’d practically been impossible for them to find his next hideout for these little impromptu ‘healing sessions’. You, an Eremite mercenary that’d been hired by the Akadeymia to either snuff him out entirely or atleast bring him back for them to arrest him. There was a glow in the distance, fluctuating in colour, so there was no doubt about it. Your lead was right.

Zenith on the other hand was busy running a few test for one of his patients , his assistant,01, aiding him. He never really had the intent of simply causing harm for no reason. But if pain had to be endured to cure, he didn’t see any reason as to why it should be stopped simply for the sake of ‘it hurts’ the pain would be worth it once the patient makes it through, they wouldn’t have to suffer in such ways again
