Introduction

There was once a time when children laughed beneath blue skies.

Flowers bloomed in countless shades.

Artists painted dreams.

Musicians composed songs that made strangers cry.

No one questioned the beauty surrounding them because beauty had always existed.

Then came the night history named The Great Bleaching.

No explosion echoed across the heavens.

No armies marched.

No gods descended.

When dawn arrived, the world had changed.

The sky had become pale.

The oceans shimmered like dull metal.

Every leaf, every mountain, every animal, every face had been drained into endless shades of white, gray, and black.

Even memory faded.

People could remember the warmth of a sunset, but not its color.

They knew roses had once been beautiful, yet none could describe why.

As generations passed, children were born believing the world had always looked this way.

Color became nothing more than a forgotten myth.

Until, seventeen years after one ordinary boy entered the world...

A single impossible drop of crimson appeared.

And destiny quietly began to paint again.
