The Architect of Balance

The world operates on balance, that is the one rule of this world. Every person bounded by it's power has to maintain this status, no matter what. To protect this is why the people of the abyss exist. The special entities that are said to be neither alive nor dead, neither male nor female, they are their very own species, one entirely governed by magic. Asato is just the one next in line for the post of the Architect though. But there are forces that want to create imbalance all over the world which do not bode well for anyone involved. From times even before Asato took over the post, forces of power had started to move already. With the case of the latest body leading him down on a wild chase which starts more questions than it answers, the whole things start to get tangled into a mess which is happy to tangle itself even more as the time is passing by. What does it bode for the world which is starting to loose it's balance?
