_Transcendent

A recurring dream from a fateful night haunts Varian. 

With a past he couldn't forgive himself for and a future he abandoned, his life in the present is in tatters.

But when you're alive, there's hope. 

The hope comes one day in an unexpected form. 

The painful past, the meaningless dream and the unexpected way forward force him to make a choice.

Stay broken and remain in the sorrow of the past he couldn't change. 

Or. 

Pick himself back together and try for one last time, to find the truth about his own dream and its connection to his unforgivable past, all in the hopes of forgiveness of himself, by himself.

Divine Path System

The sea of Varian's soul was a mix of seven different colors, perhaps directly from his seven different paths.

The water in the sea—at least that's how it visually seemed—was a mix of multiple colors, expanding every second, pushing farther and farther into the void.

The 'spirit' sat in the depths of the sea.

The usually free spirit now had a golden shackle covering it from head to toe.

It's not a normal grade contract. Even if peak rank 9s help, the contract would stand strong. In the worst case they manage to crack it, it'd damage Varian's spirit and had a great chance of killing him.

Since it's a direct attack on his spirit, his consciousness, his great physical regeneration would be of no use.

Of course, as an <Ignis>, Varian could recover from the damage. In the worst case, he could store a bit of his spirit, blow up the rest to break the shackles and start regeneration.
