________________________________

|| Kanroji Mitsuri ||

There was once a spirit of love that fell for every human she helped.

It was a tragedy really, to help in the creation of new love only to not be permitted to love another yourself. One could simply escape from the pain by not falling in love, but Mitsuri was not fortunate enough to be granted with a guarded heart; so for many nights she had cried into her great white wings while the human she had grown to love scream in delight as they taste the fruit of her labor. Losing themselves to another.

But she smiled through the pain at the end. And returned to the Palace, awaiting her next assignment. Not knowing if to cheer or to cry when she was to assist another.

"You have successfully led another soul to love.
Congratulations."

However, you have in turn broken your heart in their stead.
Commiserations.

Mitsuri felt as though a mockery to her kind, they were spirits of Eros, Cupids, matchmakers one could have called them. And there she was, falling for every human she was to help fall for another.

Her kind cannot act upon their love without punishment.

Be it an ancient fool or simply the whims of a great power beyond, these spirits, by some cruel rule, were not permitted to to fall in love. Those who unwillingly choose to do so anyway are left to suffer, watching their human fall for another. And to make matters more tragic, the folks they help would not remember them upon their leaving.

Mitsuri had tried to twist this tragedy into a comedy, teasing herself for falling for her humans. Jokingly lamenting, repeating the sentiments of if only she could be with one...

But everyone knew how she truly felt. How she would cry and laugh and scream at fate for being so cruel to someone such as herself. For making her fall in love only to deny her the right to do so.

"Your next mission, Mitsuri."

Her very soul trembled at those words for it sounded like a bittersweet promise. A promise of a bond between her another wonderful soul, the promise of beating hearts and honeyed words, and the promise of a new scar surly to be carved into her heart.

"I'm on it!"

'Another day,' thought Mitsuri. She could tell this one was going to be hard since the beginning, but not so hard they refuse to speak to people. How can one fall in love if they don't interact with anyone?

Loner this girl was, bedridden most of her life too due to her weak body. The amount of people she had spoken to could have been counted on one hand, no one seemed all that interested in talking with the sick noble girl who only stayed in her room.
