The world teeters on the edge of darkness, where cursed entities born from fear and pain lurk in the shadows. The Sanctuary, an ancient order of Hunters and Dolls, is all that stands between humanity and the void-a malevolent force that twists creat...

In the Sanctuary, few names commanded as much respect as Team 8: The Ironclads. While other teams specialized in stealth, subterfuge, and arcane magic, the Ironclads were a living embodiment of brute strength, resilience, and indomitable will. They were the bulwark of the Sanctuary, the team called upon when overwhelming force was required, and when cursed zones threatened to consume entire regions.
When the void threw its most devastating forces into the world, the Ironclads would meet them head-on. No matter the odds, no matter the enemy, the Ironclads stood firm, an unbreakable wall between humanity and the encroaching darkness. They didn't just survive battles—they dominated them, turning even the most hopeless situations into victories.
The team was led by Darius, a towering warrior known for his unyielding strength and tactical genius. His partner, Valeria, was a powerhouse in her own right, known for her ferocious combat style and unwavering determination. Together, they formed the core of the Ironclads, a force that could not be stopped.
Their Nokorii, Bastion, was more than just a spirit companion. Bastion was their shield, both physically and metaphorically, offering protection and support in the most dangerous of situations. The Nokorii was large and imposing, its body resembling a stone sentinel, with glowing eyes that watched over its team with a fierce protectiveness.
The Mission: The Fall of the Bone Legion
The cursed zone had been growing steadily near the edge of a settlement called Ashdown, a village that lay dangerously close to the expanding void. For weeks, the settlement had reported strange sightings—shadows moving in the distance, and figures appearing in the mist at night. But when the Bone Legion appeared, the village knew it was facing something far worse than mere sightings.
The Bone Legion was an army of skeletal warriors, cursed and raised by a void necromancer whose power came from the deepest pits of the void. These cursed skeletons, animated by malevolent energy, had already destroyed several outlying farms and settlements. Now, they were advancing on Ashdown, and no team but the Ironclads could hope to stand against such a relentless force.
Arrival in Ashdown
Darius stood at the edge of Ashdown, his massive arms crossed over his chest as he surveyed the land. The cursed zone was visible in the distance, a swirling mass of dark clouds and eerie light that seemed to devour everything in its path. The Bone Legion was still out of sight, but Darius knew they were coming.
"Do you feel it?" Valeria asked, her voice steady but tinged with anticipation. She stood beside him, her twin swords strapped across her back, each blade glowing faintly with the void-resistant runes engraved on them.
Darius nodded. "They're close. We don't have much time."
Behind them, Bastion paced, its massive paws leaving deep impressions in the dirt. The Nokorii's stone-like body glowed faintly with protective energy, and its violet eyes were fixed on the horizon, ever watchful.
