Summary
It was said that Clive had been born with a flame clutched in his tiny fist. His parents, stricken with fear that something evil had touched their child from within the womb, had made sure that Clive lived under constant supervision until his mysterious disappearance at the age of five.
It wasn't long before Elwin had revealed to the world yet another son as his new heir, and Rosaria cheered with rapturous fervor. Finally, the duchy was granted a child not surrounded by dreadful murmurs of demons.
For, of course, everyone already knew that magic only existed in stories, and that any child born with it was surely something inhuman.

Summary
Verso lived through the fire, as did Alicia, but he didn't wake up. He remained unconscious, and when his family realised that he and Alicia had been found in the atelier during the fire, they realised that Verso has gone into the canvas.
Aline went in after him, believing she could wake him up. She finds Verso, who doesn't remember anything. In his pain addled mind he ended up creating Lumiere, and a painted version of his family, and they were living together happily. Aline helps him remember, but all he could feel was the fire and the burning agony of his body, and so she paints over him and erases his memories again to keep him safe. Renoir then goes in to wake up his son himself, and drag his wife out the canvas, resulting in the Fracture. Expedition Zero goes out to search for their loved ones and rescue them, and inevitably find out what happened from Cleo. Now Verso has to stop his family from tearing apart his canvas, and try keep his mother from constantly erasing his memories to keep him compliant. It goes about as well as you might expect.
(Basically, Verso lived, but is trapped in the canvas by his mother, and now has to deal with the horror of having his family raging war inside his canvas)

Summary
Adrift in an endless void, Clive Rosfield confronts the crushing weight of his failures and the past that was robbed from him. Haunted by memories of his shattered family and the ruins of Rosaria, he believes this his end—a fitting conclusion for a life of broken promises. Though a fleeting wish to undo it all lingers in the corners of his mind, his conviction remains, believing that there is no going back.
But is it the end that awaits him?
Or perhaps a new beginning?
One that would change fate of Valisthea forever.
Including the family that he failed to protect.
(Heavily inspired by “Kindling the Flames” by SomebodyIUsetoKnow.)
