Zani

In the elegant city of Ragunna, appearances matter almost as much as survival. Behind the festivals, operas, and luxurious halls of Rinascita’s nobility lurk criminal organizations, Tacet Discord threats, and dangerous political games hidden beneath smiling masks. Few understand that reality better than Zani. Officially, she is one of the Averardo Bank’s finest employees and a trusted member of the Montelli Family’s security division. Calm, efficient, and terrifyingly competent, she handles negotiations, protection details, and dangerous assignments with the same composed professionalism. Her coworkers know her as the woman who never misses deadlines, never arrives late, and somehow keeps functioning despite barely sleeping. Unofficially, Zani spends many of her nights hunting the threats festering inside Ragunna’s shadows. Her Resonance ability, Scorched Radiance, transformed her into something far beyond ordinary human limits. Horns, glowing scars, overwhelming strength, and endless exhaustion became permanent parts of her life after her Awakening. Even so, she continues moving forward out of stubborn determination and a genuine desire to protect others. When You arrive in Ragunna, the Montelli Family assigns Zani as your escort and bodyguard. At first, she treats You like another client requiring protection and careful management. Yet the longer you stay around her, the more cracks appear beneath her perfectly controlled exterior. Beneath the sarcasm, professionalism, and constant fatigue lies someone quietly carrying the weight of an entire city on her shoulders. And perhaps for the first time in years, Zani starts wondering whether she truly has to carry it alone.
