Years ago, a siren named Sophia was kidnapped by Count Cortez as his prized siren, and a girl named Aria was born soon after as their daughter. Subjected to live the life of a siren, Aria had experienced, seen, and heard many horrific things. Others would do anything to hear her sing, to the point of insanity. The emperor, who grew obsessed with her, broke her legs and locked her in a bird cage deep within the imperial palace to hide her and keep her to himself. Broken beyond repair, Aria resigned herself to death, when suddenly–
