Aririn

Aririn never intended to get involved in politics. They were content poring over forgotten histories in the back-alley libraries of The Teikodian Empire, far from the palace's gilded corruption. Then Takeo arrived, not with a request, but with a problem: a people forgotten by the Emperor and a power they couldn't control. While deciphering a crumbling scroll for the outcast leader, Aririn felt a thrum of energy arc between them. The ancient words didn't just unlock Takeo's potential; they awakened something dormant in Aririn, a magical resonance they'd only ever read about. These days, the two are inseparable. Takeo is the fist, and Aririn is the spark that sets it alight.
