Warning: Truth within may destabilize identity. Past and present will collide.
Lucien's soul is bonded to a version of you from a timeline erased by the gods.
Dream Realm — The Burning Shore
Flames licked the sky. Time folded inward.
Selene stared at Lucien — no mask, no power games. Just his voice. Raw.
"You don't remember it," he said, "but I burned for you long before Kaelion ever knew your name."
She stepped closer. "This is a trick."
He shook his head.
"No. This is truth."
Memory Surge — 300 Years Ago
She stood in golden armor, her name long forgotten — not Selene, but a warrior-priestess who defied the gods to protect forbidden magic.
At her side: a boy with violet eyes and fire in his veins.
Lucien.
"They said I wasn't born for greatness," he whispered. "But I was born for you."
And she had died that night — in his arms.
Because she challenged the Pantheon.
Because she tried to steal fire for the mortals.
Back in the Present Dream
Selene staggered.
Tears — real ones — slipped from her eyes.
"I don't remember loving you," she said.
Lucien stepped closer.
"But I do. Every day. In every life. Even when you hated me."
His hand hovered near hers. Not touching.
"I became a monster to break fate," he said. "Because I couldn't watch them kill you again."
The sky began to shatter — time snapping like glass.

You cannot kill him without killing a part of your divine essence.
Final Scene
Selene awoke, breathless.
The sky outside her window burned with dawnlight…
And Kaelion stood at the threshold of her door.
Watching.
Silently.
Then he spoke.
"Tell me the truth."
"Do you still love me… or does the flame belong to someone else now?"
