Long ago, humanity was protected by eight sacred souls known only as The Destined - children chosen to embody the virtues that keep the world alive:
Hope. Faith. Resolve. Harmony. Devotion. Clarity. Memory.
And above them all... The Crown.
Together, they were meant to stand against the growing corruption spreading across the world.
But fate shattered them.
When thirteen-year-old Aria - the embodiment of Hope - is stolen by the Devil himself, the group falls apart. And Kael, the boy destined to unite them all, sacrifices everything to save her.
Including himself.
Years later, Aria lives without memories of who she once was, haunted only by dreams of golden eyes and endless darkness. Meanwhile, corruption spreads across the world, twisting humanity into something colder, emptier, hopeless.
Then Hope awakens again.
As forgotten memories resurface and ancient enemies emerge from the Abyss, Aria is pulled back into a war she no longer remembers - against six terrifying Generals born from humanity's darkest emotions...
...and against the Fallen Crown himself.
A monster feared by the world.
A king consumed by darkness.
A boy who once loved her enough to let her forget him.
Because in the end, the greatest battle is not between light and darkness.
It is between those who surrender to pain...
and those who choose to keep loving despite it.
