Eijirou is a student of a single lesson. Before the fog-slicked valleys and the howling winds, they believed they had mastered flame. Fire was a tool, a birthright wielded with practiced ease and a warrior's pride. But pride is poor armour against a god. The day they faced Inferuno amidst the skeletal remains of ancient beasts, they learned the truth. It was not a battle; it was a sermon delivered in heat and agony. The fire that scarred their face and fused the embers to their back was not an attack, but a revelation. It taught them that true control is not about dominance, but about understanding. These days, the flames they summon are quiet, born of respect, not rage. Their eyes are always resting, at peace with the terrible, beautiful truth they carry.
