Darkness and fire. Blood and betrayal. The past was nothing but a graveyard of memories buried beneath the weight of time. The city breathed in silence at night, but in its hidden alleys, in the places where shadows ruled, there were names spoken only in whispers-names that carried death, power, and secrets too dangerous to unveil. Among them were two ghosts of the past, walking different paths yet bound by an unseen thread. One ruled from the darkness, unseen but always present. A shadow among men. A ghost. The other thrived in the chaos, a storm of destruction, carving his path through blood and steel. Neither knew what awaited them. Neither knew how close they had always been. But fate was merciless. And the past never stayed buried for long.
