A deceptively simple story about the battle between destiny and a devastated time traveler who spends his whole life in hopes of being able to fix things that went wrong in his past, only to end up giving up on this goal as he loses everyone he loves and runs out of any sliver of hope left. However, this relinquishment will start a new chapter in his life, a chapter full of joy and contentment. Will this glee stay in his life? Or will he lose everything, as he always has?
Simply a time travel story, but much more than that.
