Imagine a world, the perfect world, filled with technology that seems to be only possible in your wildest dreams. Except, it isn't a fantasy anymore. All of humanity's technological dreams, finally realized. A world with teleportation devices, taking you wherever you need to go. Flying cars, technology that has eliminated disease and cancer, everyone healthy. Anything you imagine, becomes a reality. And it belongs to one kingdom, Adakon. The perfect kingdom.

The story starts at the heart of the kingdom, the city of Agalda, home of the royal family. The kingdom, covering most continents, is one of the most powerful in Earth's history. It may be a utopian kingdom, but it has had it's share of dark moments though. Once upon a time, the kingdom was not a utopia. But one man changed that. He was incredibly smart. He pioneered new creations in the technological world. Thanks to him, the kingdom grew and grew, becoming more and more powerful. Soon it seemed it was at it's highest. But something changed in this man. He locked himself in his lab underneath the palace citadel, unseen for months. Most thought he was dead.But when he came out, he was different. Some say he went mad, but no one really was sure that was what happened in his laboratory. That is until a week after he emerged.

There was an explosion, just to the west of the royal palace, right above the man's lab. A shrill screech was heard across the citadel and town below. All stopped, unsure what the sound was. A cross between wild cat and some robotic nightmare crawled out of the hole in the ground, joined by another, and another until floods of the horrific creatures were swarming the streets, killing anyone and anything in sight. Screams began to become mixed with the shrieks of the monstrosities. Soon the streets were lined with red. Then silence.

The screams stopped. The metallic noises were silenced. Then everything spiraled downward. They bolted for the palace. The people were fine, but the walls protecting the home of the royal family were not as well off. All of a sudden, the man emerged from the beasts, appearing to be leading them. Slowly he walked to the palace doors politely knocked. When the door obviously weren't going to open, three creature came forward and morphed. Their legs started to shift, revealing the inner wiring of the robotic cats. It moved until the legs were allowing them to stand as man and their hands grew, becoming flatter, more round. Soon they were all small battering rams equipped with extra power to take down any sized door.

The pounding had just started when the palace grew on the sides and released a powerful burst of electromagnetic waves, so powerful that it could be seen by the naked eye. All invaders flew back, hitting the intact part of the wall. The man hit his head and fell unconscious. His beasts, on the other hand, exploded on the spot from the internal damage. The man was taken and banished by the king, his once best friend, to the mountains of Karoth, the most dangerous mountain range in all the land. Being sent there is worse than being put to death, for it is a torture device in of itself.

Unknown to the rest of the kingdom, death was the right option. In Karoth, the man died, but his hatred for the king and his lust for power did not. He lived on in a form of pure evil. He became Erebus, master of the dark. He would become Adakon's greatest enemy, one that the nation would turn the nations world upside down, and change it forever.
