   Summary

   Izuku Midoriya died incomplete. He died without growing up. He died wishing he was someone else. He died killing someone.

   But he died a hero.

   —---------------------

   Izuku has been free from his father for three years. He’s finding salvation in vigilantism. He has his life together.

   Shouta Aizawa can’t figure out the Shie Hassaikai. They’re elusive, dangerous, and mysterious. He comes across a vigilante and soon realises they can help each other figure out a decade-old case.

   Neither of them realise the impact they’re going to have on each other. The dangers are impossible to see until they’ve arrived.

   You cannot save that which is already dead.
