"The Beginning of the End? That sounds too cliché, even for you Archbishop." "Believe me, boy. That's the only thing that could describe what's going on." The skies of the 21st Century have been set ablaze by a single crystalline structure that seems to be on the verge of colliding onto Manhattan, New York. Little do the casual metropolitans know that this doomed meteor is actually the divine Archangel Michaelis being pulled towards Earth and to the unholy Inferno as anchorage to Limbo, the first of the nine Circles of Hell. Tasked to bring forth order is the V.I.R.G.I:L. (The Vatican Institute of Research and Global Initiative: Luciferian Division), an ancient secular group composed of various selected individuals with powerful ties to the supernatural. A retelling of the classic Divine Comedy given an urban-fantasy setting and a large dose of demon-fighting. Updates are in a weeky/bi-weekly basis and plays around 4 different character POVs to form an epic struggle between good versus evil.

Synopsis: For over a decade, demons have ravaged the world after a mysterious traveller uncovered and shattered an ancient artifact etched with forbidden angelic runes. In doing so, they unknowingly unlocked the Gates of Hell-not as a single event, but as countless hidden fractures across reality itself. These portals, now seep demons into the human world, allowing them to grow stronger with each passing day. Whispers speak of a chilling truth-demons mark humans to drain their life force and replenish their magic, growing more dangerous with every soul. Daichi, a 27-year-old widower plagued by a lifetime of misfortune, finds himself marked by one such demon-a powerful and dangerously alluring creature whose true intentions remain a mystery. Does it seek to consume Daichi's soul... or something far more intimate? As Daichi teeters between survival and surrender, two unlikely allies take up the fight elsewhere: Junichiro "Xavier" Masashi, a high-ranking and battle-scarred General Demon Hunter, and a mysterious Hellhound bound to a mysterious master. Together, they investigate the origins of these evolving demonic threats-seeking out patterns, secrets, and the truth behind the growing invasion before the world collapses completely. Now, with Daichi trapped in a deadly bond and Xavier chasing shadows beside a creature born of flame and fang, both men face impossible choices. Between love and loyalty, salvation and sacrifice-can they change a world already burning? Or will desire undo them all?
