One morning, a fisherman from a nearby village came down to the rapid river to fish, only to find a young titan washed ashore. He adopted the child, naming him Cascade. With each day spent among humans, Cascade drifts further away from his titanic nature, but his developing power never fails to remind him of his origins. A titan or a human? Someday, Cascade will have to choose.
