Prologue
Indeed, this world is cruel. Not to just humans, and not to just monsters. Even though the monsters of this world were either slain or sealed away underground, the human population suffered a second war among themselves, dwindling down their own population, and eventually beginning something called "The Great Harvest" that takes place once every 10 years.
This is where 10 human souls from different communities are sacrificed to provide the rest of the population with magic to power their machines until an artificial energy is created to replace it. Of course, before the monsters were sealed away underground, they were originally responsible for this role, for they can generate magic without a sacrifice of a soul... I suppose the human race didn't completely think through the consequences of what might happen if they eradicated monsters.
Now while the human race squalors in their own grief and poverty, the monsters thrived peacefully down below. The newly appointed king, Asgore had already began his plans on destroying the barrier. If they could just create some sort of artificial soul to "pick the lock", then maybe that very soul can be absorbed by monsters, empowering them. If all goes well, then monsters will leave the underground, more powerful than ever before. They will bring the humans to their knees and have them suffer just as they have...
Well that's then... This... This however, is now... Now, and before.
Here, you will witness how cruel life can be. After all, in this world...
It's Kill Or Be Killed.
End
