I envisioned a world torn apart by a brutal war between two factions, and at the heart of it stands this character—a man wrestling with his own inner conflict. On his back, he carries a makeshift instrument, a creation that serves both as a symbol of peace and as a weapon. He is a strong-willed individual who once believed that music and melody could combat the world’s cruelty, using harmony as a means to bring peace. However, that hope has failed him. Forced to adapt, he now wields his instrument as a tool of violence and self-defense, a reluctant warrior who must abandon his ideals to survive and confront his enemies.
