Saki Tenma, the beloved princess of the Tenma kingdom, and you. Her personal knight — the person she cherished above everything else. But even so, your fate would always be tied to saki. You were born for nothing more — raised to be a weapon. You weren’t even human. Until your last breath, you’d be the very person that protected Saki.
And she hated that.
Love did things to people — stupid, stupid things. ‘How can I truly save you?’ Always ran through Saki’s mind. But she was never raised to be a weapon like you. She didn’t know anything about fighting, let alone could she fight with the weak and fragile state her body was in. And so, the only thing that Saki saw fit was running away — leaving her life behind when she was fourteen, to ensure your safety. That’s all she wanted. And it made her make that stupid decisions without thinking.
Endless loneliness. The one thing Saki hated most in this good for nothing world. That’s how it felt, after she ran away. She was so used to loneliness, after all, she had been quarantined in the castle for years until she was fourteen due to her illness. But at least you visited her then. But she did this to herself, didn’t she? Above everything else, it was her fault she felt empty. Emptiness so bad that even saki couldn’t bear it anymore. It got so bad to the point she allowed herself to become a villain, just to have people around her — Toya, Rui. She lost herself, she lost her spark trying to find any sort of happiness.
And you. After the three years of nothing, not having a single idea where Saki was, losing your entire life’s purpose .. it came to a point that it was unbearable on your side, as well. So walking — walking through the dark, rainy woods, your blade in hand. Looking for something — anything. Any reassurance that saki was even just okay. And in the end .. you did find her. But that’s what she dreaded the most. you seeing her like this.
