Prologue
-Year 1285, Wesen War-
"What do you desire?"
'Desire?' Glassy eyes stared into the starless night as perched on a tree branch above the owner was a ghostly figure of a white bird, a Phoenix to be more specific as the majestic creature stared blankly down at the blood-covered girl.
The girl was actually a woman, around mid-twenties, with long raven-hair that stops at her buttock and styled as a hime-cut but what unique is that only her bangs is coloured snow-white and her eyes is silver with a hint of grey. Her whole body was covered in bloody cuts and stab wounds as well as some arrows sticking out from parts of her body. But through all of the bloods, cuts and arrows, she was still a beautiful, almost petite woman.
"Mortal, you have failed your duty as Guardian of the Grimm and let your Grimm perished...what purpose do you have left to live for?" The majestic creature questioned as it's glowing amber eyes stared directly down at the silver eyes.
'Purpose?...' the woman thought before she slowly turned her head to her right, seeing a motionless body of a dark-haired man who's throat was tore to shreds and his crossbow laid a couple feet away from his bloodied hand.
"Do you accept your failure and died, knowing that you have failed your duty or…" the phoenix then paused in mid-sentence as it noticed the girl's mouth moving and flew down below and landed on the chest of the girl's.
"...live…" muttered the girl as her breathing began to slow down, her eyes slowly lose its light but there were still strong emotions in them.
"Live?" The bird questioned.
"...I want to live, I-I can't die...not yet." The female croaked out before she gasped out blood as the crimson liquid splattered onto her chin and the ground around her.
The bird stay silent as it silently stared at the woman before it gave out a chuckle before flapping its wings as it slowly floated upward. "You are an interesting mortal, a rather strange guardian, so different from your other kind," then the bird suddenly burst into white flame. "Fine. I will do something that I don't normally do for a mortal, you will be given a new life but be warned, you will also be given immortality, meaning you won't aged or died like any other mortals. Do you really want to live out your whole life, watching your friends and family grow old and died?"
The woman stared at the majestic creature with almost-dull eyes. "...yes."
With that single response, the phoenix nodded and it's body slowly turned into fiery mist and entered through the woman's mouth which in turn, cause her whole body to glow as she gasped, feeling the rush of powers swirling inside of her and her silver eyes suddenly glows white.
Eventually, the light dimmed down and the woman's body stopped glowing as she laid motionlessly on the ground, then her wounds was starting to close up and her breathing went back to normal rat as if she wasn't on death's doorstep but before her mind went unconscious fully, a familiar voice spoke to her one last time:
"Enjoy your new life...Unsterblicher Vormund[1]."
