Shagar is a great hero whose incredible magical power ended a war... Or at least, that's what he used to be known as. Cut to the present day, and Shagar's magic has been sealed away, unable to be used at all.

These two might have the kind of chemistry that Shagar has spent so much of his life searching for...
