Summary:
When Nephrite goes to Naru's room in a last-ditch effort to find the ginzuishou, he makes a completely unexpected discovery - he loves her. Knowing that Queen Beryl will not allow such a change in loyalties to go unpunished, he seeks refuge in the most brutally war-ravaged areas of Earth, hoping to avoid capture and that by aiding the victims of the conflicts he can atone for the wrongs he's done. But before long he learns that it doesn't matter where he hides or how much good he does - long ago he sold his soul to a powerful and immortal demon, Metallia. He'll never be free from this damning bargain, free to build a life with Naru, until he finds a way to destroy the evil without destroying himself. His quest takes him from the anarchic war zones of the present day to the royal courts of the Silver Millennium and finally into dimensions beyond space and time.
