Ruu Akaru’s life ended long before his body did. Branded a monster by the world he once tried to protect, abandoned by justice, and broken beyond repair, he has nothing left but echoes of pain. He wished only for release — to forget, to vanish, to let his past rot in silence.

Fate granted his wish in the cruelest way.
Transported to another world, Ruu awakens stripped of every memory… save for a single name. He does not know where he came from, nor what sins brought him here. Yet the scars of a life forgotten linger deep within him, shaping choices he cannot explain.

So begins a journey of identity, self-discovery, and the rebirth of a soul that never wanted to be reborn. The irony remains: he once longed to forget it all, and now, without knowing why, he struggles to reclaim what was lost.

Echoes of the Exile is a story of deep trauma, fragile bonds, and the unending search for meaning — even when the past itself is a wound best left buried.
