Many years have passed since the tragedy brought by the Beast they called Corvus to the world of Elysium. During the battle with the Beast, there were a few who was able to inflict damage on the beast thus defeating it—temporarily with the help of each other that at first had no intentions of being acquainted with each other as they all thought that this would be a big chance to be able to rule one of the 'nations'.

Witches.. Warlocks.. Vampires.. Werewolves.. and many more.

But then a sign had made itself known that the Corvus would soon be returning to bring chaos once again, but this time, who would be able to save Elysium? When one by one, their race had started to deteriorate?


I can't breath.. my head.. it hurts..
I'm feeling the familiar painful and burning sensation spreading inside my body..

I squirmed on my bed—clutching on the pillow that I was hugging as I pant heavily with beads of sweat forming on my forhead. It's the same feeling from before. I need my medicine.. I thought as I struggled to sit up before getting off my bed and heading towards the door while trying my best not to stumble as I felt like my bosy is being too heavy for me.

"Xen?" A warm voice called out to me just as I was able to properly get down the stairs. I tried to show her a smile, "Hey Aunt Erisa.. I think I need my medicine." I spoke and she immediately went towards a cabinet where lots of vials and bottles are in. "Oh dear, you've been.. ugh, being like this more often than before. I think we need to increase your dosage." She exclaimed before coming over to me while holding two bottles. One with blue liquid and the other with a greenish one. I think I need to ask her to leave some of these in my room from now on.. I reminded myself so that when I feel like this again next time then I won't have ti bother her anymore.

Aunt Erisa handed me the one wity the green one first and motioned for me to drink up and so I did followed by the next one—which made me cringe. "I really can't get used to that blue ones taste it's just.." I grumbled wherein Aunt Erisa laughed at me before grabbing a towel and wiping some sweat off ny face and neck. "You can not not take it. It's what.. helps you with your condition."

"Yeah I know.." I nodded and took the towel from her. "I'm starting to feel better now, you may go back to whatever you were doing not Auntie." I nodded at her and she gave me another smile before heading back to the working desk she had near a window.

"It's almost time,"

"She should be awakening soon, yes? She will finally be turning 17 soon."

"Mhm.. We won't be waiting too long now. Our plan is to wake the Beast and she is not to interfere with our plans."

"I can't wait to be able to throw her in the realm of the dead! Oh! How I wish to be able to see that frigthened face of hers!"

"Now, now. Let's not get too excuted shall we?"
