What's worse than a past that comes back to haunt you? One you don't even know. When Edin awoke in a stranger's bedroom, having forgotten everything but his name and age, he did not expect to be thrown into an ongoing war. As a gifted - a rare group of humans born with special abilities - Edin is forced to become a guardian and protect the realm of Idelhen from monsters, lest mankind fall prey to darkness. Arden Mægenstern, Idelhen's strongest guardian and the last stand against a sorcerer more powerful than most gifteds combined, takes Edin under her wing and works with him to restore his memories. A fateful encounter with a beast deems Edin worthy of becoming a guardian, and his sheer power promises an end to the sorcerer's reign of terror. However, just as he's thrust onto the battlefield, he realizes that there are other monsters than the feral creatures he's forced to slay. And they're waging a war within him. As Edin's inner demons and obscure past creep out of the shadows, the world wonders whether he really is Idelhen's next hope or its demise in disguise. Only blood will tell.

That day, they didn't know what they had lost. Izuku Yagi was born quirkless. His sister, Izumi Yagi, on the other hand, had an extremely powerful quirk that could match One For All―her father's quirk. While his parents praised Izumi, Izuku was mindlessly neglected and shoved aside like he was nonexistent. After several years of physical and psychological abuse, neglect, and rejection, he finally was fed up. ℹ️ Extra Information ℹ️ -Cover is mine. -With point-of-view changes, the time can also change; although, I try to make it apparent whenever the time has been changed. -Please point out any mistakes or plot holes you find because I want this to be as good and accurate as humanly possible (however, with some plot holes-if it's been too long-I might not be able to fix the issue) -If you're wondering why I'm re-uploading everything, it's because I edit any mistakes I notice (albeit, incredibly slowly 😅).

"Being reunited with your childhood best friend after eight years apart? Sounds like a heart-warming story. Finding out that said best friend is now a complete jerk who's determined to make your life hell? Not so much." Georgie and Connor were once inseparable. Best friends from birth, they did everything together - well, that was until Connor's dad got a once-in-a-lifetime job opportunity and the family was forced to relocate to New York. At age sixteen, Georgie's life is totally different - her main goal being to keep her head down and escape the brutalities of high school with as little emotional scarring as possible. Balancing school, work and her dwindling social life is enough of a challenge, but it's about to get a bit more complicated when her conceited ex-best friend gets thrown into the mix. Maybe friendship should come with an instruction booklet.
