   Summary

   Marc didn't want to be a hero again.
   He had failed once. He almost ruined everything once. He didn't want any other chances.
   But yet, there he was, using the miraculous that one day had been from his beloved, that now he couldn't even bring himself to look at the eyes.
   He had something to fight for, after all. Even if he didn't believe he was worth it.

   But maybe an encounter with an mysterious street artist would change things a little bit.
