“I waited for you my entire life... and you were worth every minute.”

Ardyn Lowell normally forgets his dreams. He’s a normal young adult who has good friends and a happy family. He should be contented with his life, but there’s always this nagging feeling of yearning in his heart, a longing for someone that never seems to disappear.


In his dreams, however, he remembers everything. He remembers the man who always visits him, the man who always sits next to him on the edge of the fountain in a beautiful garden. He can never clearly see the face of this man, but the yearning in his heart ceases when he is with him.


But when he wakes up, he forgets the man once again, and the longing in his chest never goes away.


The day of his graduation ceremony comes, and Ardyn is late. Catching traffic on the way, he unexpectedly meets with a major car accident and dies quickly, suddenly.


When he wakes up, he’s in another world.


In this world, there exists a dark, malicious entity that threatens to destroy the entire planet and its people. This is where Summoners come into play. In order to seal away this entity, a Summoner must go on a journey and search for their 7 Guardians in order to summon the 7 Spirits that will aid them in sealing away this great evil. They must not fail, or else none will be able to survive.


As an Otherworlder Guardian, Ardyn is faced with a massive, unfortunate burden. He must search for his Summoner, and he must also discover himself and his purpose along the way.


The journey is long and filled with hardships, but they have no choice.


They have no choice but to save this world in order to live.

[BL] Guardians of Fate

Ever since the sealing process began, Evan had been struggling.

Years of training and practicing his skills could not have fully prepared him for this moment. The priests had warned him about the effects of the sealing ritual, and he had expected the same.

But they were wrong. In fact, the effects were much worse than he had been told. It was just excruciating pain all over and nothing else.

Was this the result of the fusion of all the Spirits in his body?

There was a reason why each Guardian only harbored one Spirit inside of them. That Spirit was like the embodiment of their magic, a part of their essence. Sucking out that essence meant taking away a fraction of their power.

It did not mean that they would become powerless once the Spirit was extracted from them by their Summoner, but the merging process was a necessary step in order to summon the Final Spirit, the Deiridh.
