Inspired by traditional Chinese aesthetics, the collection reimagines Rafayel and the MC through elegant black-and-white illustrations that blend manga-style linework, ink-wash textures, decorative motifs, and flowing classical costume design.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe accordion-fold format allows the artwork to unfold into a continuous visual composition, creating an experience closer to a traditional Chinese handscroll than a conventional book. Throughout the piece, Rafayel appears in richly detailed historical-inspired attire alongside the MC, surrounded by butterflies, water, architecture, and poetic imagery that give the collection a quiet, romantic atmosphere.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis particular edition is especially difficult to obtain.
