CATACLYSM.

The dark fog blackens one's vision, but do you know what remains in the fog itself? Well then, may the fog open up.

Behind this dark eerie mist, reveals a humble kingdom surrounded by withered trees and abandoned structures.

Scynthiv, the Nation of Cataclysm, masked entities such as malicious and mysterious figures roam this realm.

Do you dare trespass upon these grounds? Or do you feel unwelcome?

That aside, the highest point of this castle, sought a balcony, in which, a silhouette of a ravenette is seen looming over the Nation of Cataclysm, along with a shorter ravenette figure as well, who could they be.

"Big brother Belial.. Why must we keep our masks on at all times? What are we hiding from?" The hushed tone of the worried younger asks out of the deepest depths of her curiosity.

".. Just don't take it off, Claudia. It will find us, and it'll ruin us. Our sanity. Our freedom. So my dear sister... Just please— never take it off," Belial sighs, much more like a plead, yet he only wishes for his younger sister to be safe. For her own safety, for the nation's safety.

He must do something to save this dying kingdom.

— BELIAL.

Belial, crown prince of Scynthiv. He's noticed. He knows.

He's noticed how his nation is dying, he knows why. He knows.

He already came up with a plan, he believes he must save his nation, he must save his people. It makes him wonder, is this curse spreading through the other nations as well? If so, he must warn them.

Belial has known ever since the organized meeting between his mother, Hekate, and the other two of each nation, Aurora and Athena. He's most definitely planning on contacting them otherwise.

He must be responsible, he needs to prove his worth as the future of this land.

— CLAUDIA.

Claudia, younger sibling of Belial, princess of Scynthiv. Her righteous elegance and perseverance is admirable, yet she chooses to look up to her older brother, she believes and will support her brother no matter what, but she worries so for her brother's safety.. Isn't he digging into this a bit much?

She knows he's doing this for Scynthiv, but is this really what they want? For all she knows— It could bring Belial some serious trouble!

Having said, Claudia once overheard her brother in his chamber, planning something out. And apparently, he's gonna 'Investigate the deepest depths of the forest mist,' Yet that's what worries Claudia most.

Their mother, Hekate, already warned them about never going too deep into the forest, so what foolery is her brother trying to do?

But alas, all she can do is nothing. She can't interfere in his plans, she can't tell anyone.

— HEKATE.

Hekate, Ruler of Scynthiv. She has plans in mind, and it's most definitely not good.

Should you, outsider, be so enthralled with curiosity by her order?

You must find out yourself, mortal. Perhaps you'd learn something from this.

— CORRUPTION. —

Corruption... The reason as to why Scynthiv is currently losing itself, losing its color, losing its life.

It's rumored that if you get too close to the deep purple mists of the forest, you'll lose your sanity, you'll lose your freedom.

Hence why people wear masks, to not attract it, to not let it recognize you. To refrain the corruption from spreading. Safety measures, naturally.

But can that really stop it?

It is unheard from that a certain malevolent entity causes this corruption, consuming the energy of people's souls.

Yet, Belial, the crown prince, seems unaffected. This angers the malevolent entity.

It's overcome everything, even her, but this man... What's so special about him?

Disgusting. He absolutely disgusts this entity.
