All Zylah wanted was to heal.

Lost, alone, and nameless, she seeks out a companion. Someone to cherish amidst the chaos and the Demon attacks. When she stumbles across a broken and injured Jabez, she uses her healing hands to save him, never questioning his motives for staying.

His new companion is the answer, though she isn’t what she seems.

After gaining humanity, her personality shines, and she completely turns his life and thoughts upside down. The longer he remains at her side, the more he desires to protect her – even from himself.
