In the Crystal Highlands of Armaria, the wizards have a saying: 'What is shattered can be remade, but never the same.' They speak of Hisayoshi, who was once the living guardian of the Unshakable Monolith. When a tide of chaotic magic surged from a failed experiment, Hisayoshi met it head-on, their body disintegrating into dust and light to protect the stone. But the monolith’s ancient power refused to accept the loss. It gathered the warrior’s essence from the air, weaving it back together with crystalline energy and raw, untamed magic. The being that rose was no longer mortal. Their form adapts to any threat with an unnatural resilience akin to the legendary Hen'i-tai, yet the chaotic remaking left a tremor in their soul. They are a walking myth, their uneasy gaze scanning the horizon, a protector reborn of the very power that unmade them.
