The Cursed Trickster

It’s been 120 years since the world of Aegis became a reality to its players. The trickster, Morgana, spent a century of that time locked in The Underworld after sacrificing herself to save Aegis from her nemesis. Now, she has been brought back into the world that had forsaken her once, and while Aegis is back to its incessant cycle of chaos, all Morgana wants to do is go back to The Underworld and play board games. Forging new alliances, adopting a child, toppling empires, rebuilding kingdoms, confronting new and old adversaries, and uncovering the mysteries of the past century she spent away. Morgana might need to stay and end the cycle of chaos once and for all… --------------------------------------------- [The first chapter is the longest.

Unwanted Guests

After Blaze stormed out of their meeting, Morgana felt confused.

The trickster understood that her group would feel sad or angry that she was going back to the Underworld, but she didn't understand why Blaze, who barely showed emotions, seemed so sad at that moment.

Thankfully, Shinryu stayed there to explain the phoenix's feelings.

Fifty years ago, the tricksters that remained in Aegis signed a pact that didn't allow them to interfere with other nations' politics.

Known as the "Trickster Pact," the soul-binding document was made so that tricksters wouldn't be able to sway the political influence of an area since they were considered the principal rise and fall of empires.

Out of the seven tricksters that remained, only one didn't sign the document. A trickster by the name of "Dawn."

Morgana stood perplexed hearing the story, not comprehending why the others would sign a contract like that.
