"Once upon a time, there were two kingdoms, at war for centuries. Two kingdoms that were opposites in every way, except for the suffering born from the conflict.
Once upon a time, there was a king and a queen, weary of war. A king and a queen who knew how to set aside resentment to initiate peace.
Once upon a time, there were two princes and two princesses whose destiny was to seal the peace desired by their parents. Two princes and two princesses whose future had been decided without their consent.
It is their story that we are going to tell here."
To end decades of war, Prince Jasper of the Kingdom of Dawn and his sister Beryl journey to the Kingdom of Dusk to meet their betrothed. They are aware of their responsibility and the expectations weighing on their shoulders. However, when they meet Acacia and Willow, their hearts do not lead them where their duty awaits.

The Troubled Soul (Volume 3: Final Volume)
Once upon a time, there was a young boy who experienced constant pain. The only person who truly stayed by his side was Kallie, his sister. She was his everything. His life, his family, his best friend...his world. Then humanity had to take her away and wreck his perfect, peaceful life. As if it was not enough humans were the source of all his pain and suffering he experienced throughout his life, and the reason for all his scars and symbols, they took away the only person he cared about. Well, enough was enough. He tried leaving humanity alone. He tried living a peaceful life away from all the fighting. It was all he wanted; to live a peaceful life with his sister, but humanity would not allow him that. So, if battling was the only thing humans throughout history understood, then he would bring them a war. So now, he has a new goal. Peace treaties are made between humans but they never last. War, however, forces the loser to obey no matter what for however long the winner decides. If humanity-the entire world-only submitted to the strongest then he would dominate them all. Only he would be the strongest, allowing no other person to even come close to his power. He would burn the world down to its very foundation, eradicating everyone who stands in his way, and rebuild it anew. The new world would be transformed into what he could never have. A fair and just world, devoid of all sins, where everyone can live a peaceful life without the constant worry of what could hurt them next. New laws will be placed while the old ones are removed. All evil will be purged from the world. Any who stand in his way will be turned to ash to help build his world. If the world wanted him to be evil so badly...then he would be a malicious tyrant that rules not with an iron fist, but a diamond one. Of course, there will be many who will fight back. However, there is only one person who even has a chance at winning...and she only cares about her little sunshine.Complete
