ON HOLD 1001: the number of ants the two killed in an hour as children. Having something similar to split personalities can be tiring, especially when your other half doesn't act similarly. Ten is a lustful soul with a fickle view of his appearance, and he has the insatiable desire to be with women. However, he can't help but involve his dagger. Zero-One is a repetitious man who focuses on necessity first, and he dismisses the wants of Ten. However, after his needs are met, he goes after those who have yet to live, thinking back to his younger days. The two greatly wish to split, and the need only grows when Ten takes on a mission from Solirra, a succubus who's fallen in love with him. He has a month to find her sealed body, going by what she tells him while within his mind, or his lover will die. But another interest comes to both halves of the whole. An emotionless necromancer named Ire has the ability to split the two, shoving one into a new body while one remains. However, only the winner keeps their shared flesh, and an extra problem occurs for Ten other than his disinterest for anyone but his lovely Lirra.

"She chose to end her life, unaware that death would only be the beginning." When the Gates of Chaos had flood open, allowing darkness to loom over Ethereal, tearing the spiritual plane apart and tainting all of its souls, everything changed. An epic battle was fought against evil and darkness was soon trapped in a magical veil, but not before countless lives were lost. The Council of Celessorcials sought to bind the realms back together and abolish the threat once in for all. Moments prior to taking his last breath, an oracle uttered a prophecy that would lead the Council to hold trials for deceased humans with unfinished business, all in an attempt to find the darkest soul with the potential to bear great light. Centuries later, the search continues. Eira Hayes commits suicide to escape the misery that was her life and finds herself stuck in limbo, forced to face the lowest points of her life all in the name of redemption. If she passes her trails, she can move on and find peace. But if she fails, her soul will be sentenced to eternal damnation. As if it couldn't get any worse, the veil is cracking and Eira's guide, the one that can truly help her through the journey, seems to hate her with a burning passion. Fortunately, a wayward soul extends a helping hand, but it comes at a price. Eira is already dead, damned and destined for darkness. But now she is faced with a choice; succumb to said darkness, or go through the trials and risk being condemned for eternity. ~ooOoo~ An Urban Fantasy with elements of Adventure, and Romance. ______________________________________ H I G H E S T R A N K I N G 02/26/2017 - #875 (Fantasy)
