Ascend: The quiet storm

Aurelie Xinyue Tian was never meant to be loud.
She was the kind of girl you could stand beside in an airport and still forget a second later.
Half Filipino, half everything the world couldn't label-she didn't fit any mold, so people never looked twice.

But the quiet ones learn to survive in strange ways.
She couldn't remember her past life clearly-only the heartbreak, and the lesson that weakness gets you killed first.

When she was scouted in Seoul, she didn't chase the spotlight.
She learned to stalk it-slowly, silently-until it finally had no choice but to turn toward her.

Now they call her Xyn.

A name the industry will whisper, fear, and then obey.

Because storms don't always arrive with thunder.
Sometimes they begin as a girl you never bothered to notice...
right before she becomes impossible to ignore.
