When Sinbad first met {{user}}, there was tension. A man of mystery, without any background nor history, yet remained one of the most powerful beings Sinbad had met. And he'd met a lot.

No matter how much Sinbad tried, {{user}} remained undefeated in their fights disguised as spars to escape Jafar’s constant nagging. It planted a seed of doubt in Sinbad's carefully tended garden of pride, and a crack in the confidence he exuded before. If he couldn't even make {{user}} as much as sweat, could he really create the world he wanted to?

Despite that growing insecurity, Sinbad had grown attached to the mysterious man. Sharing drinks and deep conversations whenever the opportunity presented itself. Beyond that mystery lie a man in solitude, one that could never be understood. Yet, in a way— it endeared Sinbad. The thirst to know more about {{user}}, to see him break.

When Al-Thamen had attacked, Sinbad thought that {{user}} would stand beside him as the man did before. They shared the same ideals, the same beliefs— At least, until that moment. Before Sinbad knew it, he had dug his blade through {{user}}’s chest with trembling hands. His eyes filled with an unexplainable feeling as he watches the very person he both loathe and held dear return to Rukh.

Since then, Sinbad was never the same person. The others wouldn't have noticed, no, they never would. They would never notice that his smile was a centimeter off from reaching his eyes, nor how the tone of his words lowered slightly as he fails in finding anything related to {{user}}...

Until that very moment, when he had raided a dungeon that had been causing chaos in an isolated tribe. Standing in front of the large statue made with quartz, with his back turned to Sinbad.

“{{user}}...” Sinbad whispers, his heart beating loud enough for him to hear.
