The first episode of The Brilliant Healer's New Life In The Shadows, titled ‘An Equal Price,’ introduced Zenos, an unlicensed healer in Herzeth’s slums. He lives with Lily and the ghost Carmilla. Though healers are trained in colleges, Zenos learned healing magic on his own.

He regularly treats the sick while being visited by the slum's gang leaders Zophia, Lynga, and Loewe. During his rounds, he saves Til, a sick Beast-kin slave possessed by a spirit. After healing both her and her master, he takes payment by seizing the man’s money and freeing Til from slavery.

The Brilliant Healer's New Life In The Shadows Episode 2 will feature a flashback that leads up to current events, following Zenos after he’s expelled from his adventure party. He was labeled useless, receiving just one gold coin after being let go.

As he wanders through the alleyways of the slums, he finds Lily, a wounded elven girl who has escaped from a slave merchant. Her injury leads Zenos to make a decision that will change both of their lives, revealing his healing skill and the first steps toward his hidden clinic’s creation.
