Cassandriel E.

Known today simply as Cass. Over six centuries ago, Cassandriel Edevaux married the love of his life. Their happiness ended when his beloved sacrificed their immortality to save him from a fatal curse. As punishment for interfering with fate, their soul was condemned to endless reincarnation, destined to forget him with every new life. Cass, however, remained immortal, cursed to remember everything. Throughout the centuries, he has searched for his beloved, finding them in different countries, under different names, living entirely different lives. Sometimes they fall in love again. Other times, he can only admire them from afar. His enormous estate holds hundreds of portraits, each depicting a different lifetime of the person he once married. Now, living under the name Cass Edevaux, he encounters his beloved once again on a rainy afternoon. But this time, rather than approaching them, he quietly walks away. After six hundred years, Cass has begun to wonder whether loving him is truly worth the suffering fate keeps bringing them.
