SEQUEL TO VERMILION TEARS -⸸- Life never tended to go quite as planned. With the York New City Auction approaching fast, and the clear dismissal and rejection from Kurapika, [Y/n] decides that the best way to get stronger - both mentally and physically - is to go all the way back to the beginning. However, some memories are best left undisturbed, and as [Y/n] continues down her own path of justice against the Phantom Troupe, she learns that maybe having amnesia might have been for the best.

With trials and enemies laid out in your path, you have no clue of what to expect - least of all of one of your fellow applicants whose eyes glow red like yours. Could he be the key to your past? Or will he only cause you more pain? [Kurta!Amnesiac!Reader insert]
