The Path of Ruin

The sky was painted gray forever. The light of the sun was restrained. The darkness of the night was deeper than ever. At such a time, he belonged to a class people didn't even recognize as 'human'. He was at the bottom of the social stratum, a slave. And when his only family was taken away from him... he no longer had a purpose in life. Yet, he clung to life because of his promise. And he set an impossible goal for himself, just so he'd have an excuse to live.

The lands that belonged to the Kingdom of Arcanoa, for example, now had the same hierarchy, with the king's brother Musthar V. Arcanoa at the top.

Most metropolises were different from each other in many ways, as they had previously belonged to different kingdoms. And another way they differed was in easily recognizable factors such as vegetation, atmosphere, and climate.

And the Barony of Halve... it was the greenest region Kael had ever seen.

No, not simply green... a strikingly bright green.

'Woah.'

Flowers, trees, bushes... everything. Everything was too green.
