In Waterfall City, the roar of the falls is said to drown out all whispers, but Aberu knows it only carries them faster. They were rallied by Eiichi Chifu not as a fisher, but as an observer, tasked with watching the city’s shifting loyalties from the lower docks. One evening, near the great fish statue, they overheard a deal never meant for their ears—a secret that froze the expression on their face for good. Since then, the fishing rod has become less a tool and more an alibi. They still serve as a guardian, but what they protect is not the city, but the terrible truth they carry. The General's suit is a constant reminder of a mission that changed the day they learned what truly flows beneath the water's surface.
