Tragic Past:
At the age of four, August witnessed the aftermath of his parents' murder. That night shattered him. He never cried — instead, he ran and hid under the staircase, frozen in place until dawn. He never spoke of what he saw.
In fevered dreams, he now recalls a mysterious boy his mother was trying to protect — a boy hidden in a royal wardrobe. August never knew who he was. This memory haunts him more than the blood.

Elias – The only person who has been able to pierce his emotional walls. They share a deep bond forged in fire and mystery.
