Riyan's POV...
In the novel "Saint's Odyssey," the BloodSucker Arc served as a pivotal turning point for Raya Aero's character development—a moment that would fundamentally reshape her trajectory and bind her closer to the protagonist.
The arc was designed with surgical precision to break down Raya's walls, to shatter her composed exterior and create the emotional vulnerability that Alex Karots could exploit. It was, in essence, a tragedy orchestrated specifically to deliver a heroine into the protagonist's arms.
The haunting events were meant to leave Raya emotionally devastated, spiraling into severe depression and consumed by guilt over her sister's fate. This manufactured trauma would create a psychological opening that Alex would skillfully navigate, positioning himself as the understanding confidant who could offer comfort in her darkest hour.
