"Do you know what a hero is?" Twenty five years in the future, everyone has gone on with their lives. With the arrival of Makoto, youngest son of Nyx, and a new threat to the world looming over the horizon, their days of peace are about to twist and turn in ways no-one will expect. Trapped in a new conflict, maybe Makoto will find an answer to his question.

Makoto Yuki is a 'natural born' Persona user, Tumblr trash and philosopher; he's powerful, gets existential crises daily and ships himself with a robot. In fact, wait! Because everyone is trash! Nobody makes sense! Watch them. Watch this group of imbeciles try to save the world from the Dark Hour. And cry. Because Ken is the only one with a shred of sanity.

A child; a creature; a crisis: A tale as old as time. Minato Arisato, according to legend, has been chosen by the creatures to carry out a destiny that can pull back the throes of darkness plaguing the land: The Lost. The Iwatodai Region calls out for a saviour, but can he and his creatures build the strength and skill to overturn its bleak fate?

Minato has had the ability to talk to Shadows for more than half his life. A Persona user and a wielder of Shadows, how can SEES trust their leader? Will he care? Will he turn to apathy? To love? To sweet agony? Is it help he seeks? When no-one else could, I heard his whispers. I shall answer. (Note: Under revision. Earlier chapters may differ from new chapters. Read at own risk.)

Just Persona plot bunnies, drabbles and one-shots. Because of You: Because of you, I can never be normal again.
