Seraph, a man with a heart shielded and a mind honed into a weapon, embarks on a treacherous path known as "The Sin-Touched Void." This path, reserved only for those with an unyielding resolve, holds deep significance to his faith. In stark contrast, Aervos finds himself unable to accompany Seraph, hindered by misplaced emotions that cloud his judgment.

As Seraph treads this perilous path, he gradually discovers the extent of his own strength. With each step, he inches closer to acquiring the legendary Crimson Blade of Darkness, a dual-wielding weapon whose origins have become shrouded in the mists of time.

With the Crimson Blade of Darkness in hand and the power of the bleeding Phoenix coursing through his veins, Seraph embarks on a journey unlike any other. His path is veiled in shadows and steeped in the secrets of forgotten lore. The weight of destiny rests upon his shoulders as he faces the challenges ahead, wielding the dual blades of darkness and embodying the essence of the bleeding Phoenix—a legend reborn. Through the arcane power of the Blood-Weaving Gloves, Seraph harnesses a strength that transcends mere mortal limits. Each drop of spilled blood becomes a catalyst, empowering him with an unyielding vitality and unbreakable resolve.

Like a phantom under the moonlit sky, Seraph embodies the unparalleled speed of the Twelve Moons. With each step, he blurs through the shadows, leaving naught but fleeting traces of his presence.

United under his command, these artifacts merge to form a potent synergy, empowering Seraph to overcome insurmountable odds and claim victory in the face of adversity. With the strength of blood, the swiftness of celestial bodies, and the enigmatic allure of the heavens, As Seraph's heart steadies and his mind focuses, he channels his inner power to invoke a formidable teleportation spell. With measured words that resonate with authority, he proclaims, "By the decree of the Crimson Blades, let a door to the sacred Temple of the Gods be unveiled, granting passage to those who seek its divine presence."
