I am thou, thou art I Thou hast turned a vow into a true blood oath. It shall become the beauteous wings of rebellion, that will break the horrid chains of captivity and the yoke of thy heart. Thou hast awakened to the ultimate secret of the Emperor, granting thee infinite and passionate power. "This new power within me...it feels so warm and strong...is this...love I'm feeling....?" ----- ⚠️WARNING⚠️ This story takes place AFTER the events of Persona 5, and it spoils pretty much everything! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Ren Amamiya returns to his hometown and makes a new deal. Goro Akechi awakens in the Velvet Room with his soul-bonded missing. Arsene is released and immediately sets off to find the truth. And the threads of fate twist and weave from afar, forever watching. --- (Shuake's in the background, but sorta not in the background... it's like the driving force.) Warning: endgame spoilers, and languages, and blood. I do not own Shin Megami Tensei, Persona 5, or any of the characters from it. This storyline is mine, though. If I'm going to get sued, please PM me, and I'll take this down. That's all! Enjoy!

"I joined recently, and even now I can't tell why you let me join you" Akechi stuttered slightly. "You're a part of the phantom thieves because I want you to be. I rather enjoy having you around. I am not the ace detective, but I can read you when you come to me. You're touch-starved" Akira explained.
