The kingdom of Elaris was known as the jewel of the seven kingdoms. For years, the king and queen—beloved by their people—longed in vain for an heir. Their prayers seemed answered when, one winter night, the queen announced she was expecting a child. Months later, a baby girl was born. Bells rang for seven days. There were feasts, celebrations, and flowers carpeting the kingdom's streets. They named her Naomi. She was a child of extraordinary beauty. Her hair was as black as night, her skin as white as snow, and her red lips looked like a drop of blood against the winter landscape. She had inherited her father’s deep, dark eyes, and from the moment she was born, she was the royal family’s greatest treasure. But her parents were not the ones who had awaited her arrival the most. Long before Naomi was born... Someone was already waiting for her. He was not an angel. He was not a demon. He belonged to neither heaven nor hell. He was a being so ancient that even immortal creatures had forgotten his existence. He had waited centuries—perhaps millennia—convinced that one day she would exist again. And when Naomi opened her eyes for the first time, he was already standing by her cradle. For the first time in countless ages... he smiled. From that moment on, he never left her side. While the kingdom watched a princess grow up happy, Naomi shared her childhood with that mysterious entity. They played in the gardens; he let her pull his hair, listened to all her stories, and stayed by her side whenever she was afraid or woke from a nightmare. To him, every smile from Naomi was worth more than any kingdom. Yet, no one else could see him. When Naomi spoke to him, everyone assumed she was conversing with an imaginary friend. When she laughed to herself or left an empty seat for someone at the table, her parents simply smiled, believing it to be a product of her imagination. And he preferred that they continue to believe it. On the day Naomi turned five—when she was already capable of understanding the difference between right and wrong—he appeared in her room after the celebration. He was no longer smiling as usual. That night, he was going to entrust her with the first secret of his entire life.

The kingdom of Elaris was known as the jewel of the seven kingdoms. For years, the king and queen—beloved by their people—longed in vain for an heir. Their prayers seemed answered when, one winter night, the queen announced she was expecting a child. Months later, a baby girl was born. Bells rang for seven days.

On the day Naomi turned five—when she was old enough to grasp the difference between right and wrong—he appeared in her room after the celebration. He wasn't smiling as he usually did. That night, he was going to entrust her with the first secret of her life. And then, the conversation unfolded: > He knelt before Naomi and slowly extended his little finger. "This is a secret between us." The little girl tilted her head curiously. "A secret?" "Only you can see me. No one else must know about me." "Not even Mom?" *He gently shook his head. "Not your mother." "Not even Dad?" "Not your father, either." Naomi frowned slightly. "Why?" He remained silent for a few seconds before answering. "Because if they find out I exist... they’ll try to separate us." Without fully grasping the weight of those words, Naomi hooked her little finger around his. "I promise." And that promise, made with the innocence of a five-year-old girl, would end up binding their destinies together forever.
