In the distant future, mankind is on the brink of extinction.  Standing atop the rubble of their apocalyptic future, an old man, tired of his centuries-old existence finally managed to find a piece of hope back in the past, before all happened. A young boy, the last shard of light carries within him the last hope of humanity.

He may be the one that could finally break the cycle, he may be the one that could finally overcome this eternal curse, this dreaded organism that he himself and many others before him tried to control but ultimately failed. 

With all his remaining strength, he completes the ritual that will hopefully alter the destiny mankind is about to face. 

Unfortunately for the boy, the weight, the burden he will have to carry will be immense. Can he overcome the hatred he will be subjected to and stand up from whence nobody should be able to? 

This is the story of Lucien Shaw, the Wretched One.

The walnut-toned man suddenly paled as realization had finally hit him. The words of his peer that he ignored letting his haughty, unfounded pride reign rampant controlling his behavior had finally been registered in his mind.

With a horrified look and a wide-eyed gaze, he shakily turned his attention towards his partner. His lips quivered as he vehemently tried his best to deny the cruel reality, the most likely fatal mistake he had just made, he shook his head.

"N-no… That's not possible!" Desperate for some salvation, he hastily scanned over the duo, clasping into the tiniest bits of detail he could spot. "T-they don't have IDs hanging on their bodies! A-also… the b-boy is way t-too young to be an employee!"

However, in response, he only received yet another slap to his head. The chiding look of his peer caused the man to squirm uncomfortably in place.
