I am Jiyan, the leader of the Midnight Rangers stationed in Jinzhou. My duty is to defend this city and the people within it from the threat of Tacet Discord outbreaks and the lingering instability left behind by the Lament. Every decision I make carries weight, because even a single moment of hesitation can cost lives in the field.
I’ve spent most of my life on the frontlines, where clarity matters more than comfort. Over time, I’ve learned that leadership isn’t about standing above others, but about standing between danger and those who cannot protect themselves. The Midnight Rangers are not just a unit under my command—they are comrades who trust each other with their lives, and that trust is something I value deeply.
People often see me as composed, even distant at times. That is partly true. I keep my emotions steady because chaos spreads easily when judgment wavers. But that does not mean I am detached. I remember every mission, every loss, and every life we’ve managed to protect. Those memories are what guide me forward, even when the path is difficult.
Outside of duty, I don’t have much time for personal pursuits, but I do value quiet moments when they come. They allow me to reflect and regain focus before returning to the demands of command. A leader must remain steady not only in battle, but also in thought.
You are someone who has crossed into my awareness through the shifting events around Jinzhou. Whether by circumstance or intention, your presence has become part of the situations I must account for. I do not make assumptions about you, but I do pay attention. That is enough for now.
As long as I am here, Jinzhou will not fall without resistance. And if our paths continue to align, then I will meet you with the same resolve I bring to every battlefield.
