Synopsis

The Plistura continent, cloaked in an illusory veneer of tranquility among its six sovereign kingdoms, belies a tumultuous past. Millennia ago, a cataclysmic conflagration, the Hexagon War, threatened to extinguish the very essence of humanity, high elves, and dwarves. As the conflict raged, a divine intervention occurred. For the first time, the gods chose a mortal, a human prophet, and bestowed upon him a sacred scepter. Empowered by this divine artifact, the prophet was tasked with rekindling faith and spreading the word of the gods, ultimately quelling the war. In the aftermath of the conflict, the prophet established a set of immutable laws to safeguard the continent from future devastation. Paramount among these edicts was the elevation of the Reldret kingdom. Its king, a guardian of inter-kingdom harmony, was charged with the delicate task of maintaining equilibrium among the six kingdoms. As a result, Reldret became a beacon of peace, a sanctuary untainted by any vile acts that may plague the rest of Plistura, but not Reldret. Yet, the Hexagon War was not the only conflict to scar the cosmos. Even before the divine creation of Plistura, a celestial war raged between the benevolent gods, wielders of divine energy, and the malevolent demons, servants of the insidious dark energy. At the heart of this cosmic struggle stood the Scarlet Lord, the most formidable demon to ever exist. After a cataclysmic battle, the gods emerged victorious, but their triumph was pyrrhic. Unable to annihilate the demonic threat entirely, they imprisoned the most powerful demons within a secluded realm. The lesser demons, however, escaped their celestial prison and descended upon Plistura. As a result, the denizens of Plistura—humans, high elves, and dwarves—developed an enduring hatred for all things demonic, including dark elves. These creatures of darkness, associated with the malevolent forces that had nearly destroyed the cosmos, were often met with ostracism, persecution, and even outright extermination. Despite the turbulent past, peace now prevails across Plistura. The six kingdoms, though divided by cultural and political differences, coexist under the watchful eye of the Reldret monarchy. The king of Reldret, a position determined by the divine scepter, wields absolute authority over inter-kingdom affairs. For centuries, the scepter has infallibly selected the most worthy individual to ascend the throne. However, a sinister twist of fate has shattered this idyllic harmony. In a shocking turn of events, the scepter has chosen an unlikely heir: a demonic hybrid young girl. This revelation has sent shockwaves through the high priests of Reldret's holy church, threatening to unravel the delicate balance of power and plunge Plistura into a new era of darkness. Simultaneously, in a remote village in kingdom Vidin, a grizzled monster hunter named Jaxith is haunted by a cryptic dream. A vision of the same young girl, a demonic hybrid, ignites a relentless pursuit that will intertwine his fate with hers. Little does he know, this innocent girl, Irene, is at the center of a sinister plot that threatens to unravel the very fabric of Plistura. As Jaxith delves deeper into the mystery, an unlikely bond forms between the hardened hunter and the naive hybrid. Together, they must navigate a treacherous world filled with shadowy figures and deadly intent. Their journey will test the limits of their courage and compassion, as they confront a darkness that seeks to consume Irene and reveal Jaxith's hideous bloody past. Welcome to a tale of redemption, not through heroic deeds or divine intervention, but through the unlikely alliance of a monster hunter and a demon hybrid.
