There once was a ferocious beast. It took the combined forces of three kingdoms to defeat it. All three kingdoms partook of its meat as a gesture of peace, and soon they gained powers called Beast Bounties. However, what began as a celebration of one of mankind's greatest triumphs, reignited the seven desires that paved the road towards their corruption. After 600 years, nothing truly has changed, chaos reigned as factions fought for supremacy while authorities only cared about their own carnal impulses. The scars I bear burn my desire to change this twisted world. My name is Sydney Mystery, and this is my story of The Price of Gluttony.
