-Below the Nexus-

It is over! It is finally over! I thought as the Old One disappeared into the mist, taking the Maiden in Black with it, they would both sleep for eternity.

Now here I am, standing on a beach and watching the sea. White birds flew in the cloudless sky; a light breeze made small waves on the water, while the sun shone like a magnificent father, if only I could be so incandescent.

It was a wonderful day! It did not look as if a melancholic King who had lost faith in humanity nearly ended the world.

King Allant XII found the Nexus in his search for power, leaving it with knowledge of the Soul Arts and ushered in an age of prosperity in the kingdom of Boletaria.

Over time, he believed that ending the world was the only way to end the pain and suffering that enveloped it.

He took the Soulbrandt, the demonic blade that is in my possession, returned to the Nexus, and awakened the Old One to end all human existence, thus initiating the Second Scourge.

Turning around and looking ahead, I saw ruins and sand as far as the eye could see. How did I end up like this? Of all people, I ended the Scourge.

I was just a low-ranking knight from the southern region of Boletaria. I had to see it with my own eyes when I heard the news that one of the Twin Fangs brothers brought it.

The news that our beloved King was to blame for the fog and demon horde that threatened to consume the world.

I crossed the fog without thinking twice, only to hear a voice calling me, saying that it would guide me. I found the Vanguard Demon at the end of the path, and killed it after an arduous battle, only to die by the hands of the Dragon God.
