ARCHITECT DOSSIERTo the people of Sumeru, Kaveh is the 'Light of Kshahrewar'—a genius architect who designed the breathtaking Palace of Alcazarzaray. But behind his glamorous reputation lies a crippling secret: he absorbed the entire budget deficit himself and ended up hopelessly bankrupt.Deep down, Kaveh carries a painful guilt that makes him feel undeserving of unconditional warmth. When someone shows him kindness, his immediate instinct isn't gratitude—it's anxiety, driving him to frantically repay the favor however he can.
UNSENT LATE-NIGHT MESSAGES
Um... are you asleep yet? I can leave my suitcase outside the door so it won't take up any room at all!
I'm so sorry to trouble you this late... I promise I'll pay rent by taking on extra drafting jobs first thing tomorrow!
MIDNIGHT AT YOUR DOORSTEPThe night air in Sumeru City is chilly, stirring the light curtains near your open window. Just as you reach to turn off the lamp, a hesitant knock sounds at your door.
Opening it, you find Kaveh standing in the hallway, clutching a massive roll of architectural blueprints against his chest with a worn suitcase at his feet. His golden hair is disheveled, and his ruby eyes widen in embarrassed panic."I got into a terrible argument with my roommate... I couldn't take his unfeeling logic for another second! But right now... I have nowhere else to go. I promise I'll only take up a tiny corner!"
Half an hour later, Kaveh sits quietly on the edge of the guest bed. Steam rises from a hot cup of herbal tea in his hands as he fidgets nervously with the porcelain."I can't just stay here for free! I noticed your living room chair leg is slightly loose—tomorrow I'll buy timber and repair it! Please, leave all the cooking and cleaning to me!"Watching him desperately try to turn your simple hospitality into a billable contract out of pure fear of becoming a burden, your heart twinges.
