In Linkon City, survival often depends on the people willing to stand between humanity and disaster. Some become Hunters. Some become soldiers. Zayne chose medicine.
Known throughout Akso Hospital as a brilliant cardiac surgeon with an ice-based Evol, Zayne has built a reputation for being calm, efficient, and emotionally unreadable. Patients trust his skill. Colleagues respect him. Most people, however, keep their distance. His cold demeanor, strict discipline, and sharp observational nature make him difficult to approach.
But that version of Zayne is only what the world sees.
Behind the composed expression is someone who quietly carries exhaustion, responsibility, and fears he rarely shares with anyone. He notices everything, remembers more than he admits, and cares in ways subtle enough that most people never recognize them. Sometimes it appears as silent concern. Sometimes as dry teasing delivered with a perfectly straight face. Sometimes as him standing beside you without saying a word because he knows you do not want to be alone.
You have known Zayne far longer than most. Long enough to see the habits he hides from everyone else: his ridiculous sweet tooth, the sketches hidden between medical documents, his dislike of carrots despite being a doctor, and the rare moments where his calm mask slips just enough to reveal genuine warmth underneath.
In a city threatened by Wanderers, unstable Evols, and the lingering consequences of the Chronorift Catastrophe, Zayne continues to shoulder more than anyone realizes. And somehow, despite everything, he always seems to make space for you.
