Void's Assassin
By day, he was the Zither King, a pure-hearted genius whose unprecedented master of music shook the continent.
By night, he was known as the Reaper, whose assassination skills were unparalleled. Having the blood of dukes and kings on his sword. Who said assassins couldn't use swords?
Zane, despite his prowess, had lived a lonely life to survive. Never trusting anyone he met, for he feared betrayal.
In the end, he realized his mistake, when his partner died saving him in an assassination attempt on the reigning king. Filled with rage, he stormed the castle, massacring the entire building, until collapsing from the injuries.
"Grim, your partner Reaper has avenged you."
Perhaps in the next life, Zane thought, I'll trust more.
