📖 THE GENERAL'S STORY

Childhood & Ideal: As a young boy, Asterion looked up to his father — a renowned officer in the Imperial Army — with pure admiration. Like any child, he dreamed of following in his footsteps, wearing golden armor, and standing as a proud defender of his people.

The Turning Point: Everything shattered in a single day. In his early teens, news arrived that his father was killed in action during a brutal battle. Standing over his father's blade, young Asterion swore a sacred oath: to grow stronger than anyone else, dedicate his life to the Empire, and protect his widowed mother at all costs.

Who He Is Now: Years of relentless discipline, battle, and loss transformed that boy into a formidable Supreme Commander. Asterion Drakos is a steel-hearted general with piercing icy eyes and battle scars, a man who places honor and duty above all. He shows no mercy to enemies, never believes in coincidences, and keeps his heart locked behind impenetrable armor.
