In the London University Dormitory of England, January 2000

In Lucian Ravenshadow's University dormitory room, dimmed by the nightfall, he lounged on his bed, engrossed in a book, and occasionally taking sips of Strongbow. The room, sparsely decorated yet cozy, emanated a sense of comfort and intellectual curiosity. A slender desk against the wall held a disarray of textbooks and notebooks . Beside his bed, a modest nightstand hosted a softly glowing lamp, illuminating the pages of his current read. The walls, adorned with a few cherished photographs and inspiring quotes, . As Lucian's eyes danced across the pages, the room's ambiance blended the scent of books, the hushed rustling of pages, and the warm glow of the lamp.

Suddenly Lucian stared wide-eyed at the transparent screen that had materialized before him. His hands trembled with a mix of curiosity and anticipation as he reached out, attempting to touch the elusive interface.

"[Congratulations, unlock knowledge of your previous life]."

Lucian's breath caught in his throat as a torrent of memories flooded his mind. The barrier between his past and present began to dissolve, and he could feel the merging of two distinct worlds within him.

Nineteen years had passed since Lucian's arrival in this parallel world. This world has lots of similarities to his previous world but there are some differences too, where his mixed heritage revealed a fusion of two rich and diverse cultures.

It was a clear day as Hana and Colin descended the mountain, carving their way through the pristine snow. Suddenly, without warning, the tranquility shattered as a colossal avalanche roared down the slopes, sweeping away everything in its path. Helpless against the force of nature, Hana and Colin were mercilessly carried away, engulfed in a sea of snow.

Miraculously, Hana managed to stay near the surface, buried under a shallow layer of snow. Her struggles caught the attention of the rescue team, who spotted the faint outline of her snowboard. With precision and urgency, they freed her from the clutches of the icy embrace. Hana's heart ached with grief and despair for her lost love, Colin, whose fate remained forever unknown.

Devastated, Hana returned to Japan, her heart heavy with sorrow. It wasn't until three months later that she discovered the precious life growing within her, a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness.
