Release #15 - Here It Comes

The battlefield is rubble and smoke. Anthony barely stands against Baloney’s relentless assault, but when a finishing blast is fired, Daunte throws himself in front of it—choosing death over letting his comrades fall. Broken and bleeding, he slips into the void between life and death, where memories, regrets, and the lurking shadow of his inner demon confront him. In that endless white space, Daunte finally stops running. Reaching into the very heart of his darkness, he seizes control of the power that once terrified him. In reality, his shattered body erupts in a storm of crimson fire and shadow—SSD1, "The One Who Burned Fate," is born. As he rises, stabilized by glowing runes and an aura that shakes the heavens, Baloney’s grin falters. Daunte, no longer the boy grasping for strength but the Devil reborn, steps forward with a single promise: this fight has only just begun.
