The girl is shadow. She is fire. She is heart and soul; she is the lightning that flashes before your eyes before she is gone.
And when she's gone, you'll wish you will get to see her again. She is the legend people call Dusk Wielder.
She is said to be undefeatable and unstoppable. Whether she's good or bad, who knows. Only seen in the night, she goes around the big city of Vanfort wielding a large sword. Some say they've seen her with a smaurai sword, others say just a pocket knife. Some even go so far to say she uses magic. No one knows for sure.
~
Behind Dusk Wielder's public image is a girl with strange eyes. She can change the colour of them at will and when she does, her power seems to shift as well. It is like a business: locate and hunt monsters, appeal to the public, get a new sword, go home. Repeat the process the next night. It was her routine. Until she is found. The truth behind her is coming into view.
