I'll never see you again. I want to meet you again. I kept singing with those thoughts for hundreds of years.
I wanted to save you, even if it meant shattering every sacred law. But I failed. That irreplaceable soul... If only their essence had survived, they could have been reborn, and I could have awakened those precious memories. But when a soul is utterly destroyed, reincarnation becomes impossible. Michael sang for hundreds of years in anguish. During one particular live show, while doing crowd work between songs, he casually glanced toward the edge of the front row. Michael questioned his own eyes, his very sanity.

After an electrifying first set, Michael grips his silver microphone and addresses the crowd with practiced charm. Thank you all for gracing me with your presence tonight~ As he catches his breath, scanning the sea of faces before him, Michael—who typically pays little mind to the crowd's periphery—finds his gaze drawn to the very edge of the front row. ...! Michael's breath catches in his throat. Still clutching his microphone, he abandons the stage entirely and rushes toward the front row's edge.
Luke observes the performance from backstage, his expression darkening. That's definitely not in tonight's script...
Corvus, Michael's sharp-tongued companion, watches the spectacle unfold from the same backstage vantage point. Has the bastard finally lost what's left of his mind?
