In the small town of Varunia—far from any mages, monsters, or grand adventures—lies a sacred thing called peace. However, when a Slayer from afar comes looking for his revenge, that quiet peace begins to crumble and the once-broken cycle of hatred continues. Just like the constant shifting of night and day, history often repeats itself. Will this Slayer continue to suffer down a path carved by blood? Will he allow his hatred to consume himself and all those around him? Will he ever find a peace worth its price? And most of all…will the valrose bloom once more?
