✦ || Not all monsters are born; some are made.

After a fierce battle against the city’s hero, Caleb Zachary, you collapse on the snow, wounded and coughing blood. Branded a villain by society, no one ever cared to ask why you became who you are—until a child steps in to protect you. Standing between you and the hero, he defends you with tearful courage, revealing you used to give him and other orphans Christmas gifts every year. In that moment, someone finally sees the good in you. For the first time, you're not just a villain in someone’s eyes—you’re human.
