The Dark Side Of Fate

Every January 11th the Skeleton Tower waits. A photographer steps inside chasing whispers. A candle burns. A city holds its breath. Behind the glass is something older than the Thames, patient, hungry, and smiling with too many mouths. One flame stands between London and the drowning. One choice stands between mercy and eternity. And once you light it… you never truly leave.

In the tumultuous realm of Terres Nei, an ancient battleground, the forces of darkness led by the malevolent priestess Venganza Arcana and the enigmatic warlock Seklas have waged an unrelenting war since time immemorial.

Their dark ambitions almost come to fruition when a portal to the demon realm, Nibiru, begins to open.

Through a strange twist of coincidence, Maleek finds himself trapped in Terres Nei just as Venganza attempts to open the portal to Nibiruheim.

Now stranded in Terres Nei, Maleek embarks on a perilous quest to return home. In hopes of finding a way back home to Earth. Yet, caught between the suspicions of both the denizens of Terres Nei and the dark forces seeking to dominate it, Maleek must navigate treacherous alliances and prove his intentions in a land where trust is a rare commodity. As he grapples with the challenges of being viewed as an interloper, Maleek's journey becomes a test of survival, courage, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of otherworldly adversaries.

But they’re still good to know.”

In a universe which exists at an atemporal time, filled with infinite realms and dimensions. With an astral abyss comes the struggle for supremacy.    Races conquer the weaker species, lording over them like demigods, the quest for more resources turned the astral seas into a burial ground full with tales of wars.    In a universe filled with colossal beasts, monsters and mysteries, lies the foundation of the age in which Project Kied is based.    With the more powerful empires always thirsting and battling for more territories, they merge into leagues, orders and confederacies, to mutually channel their resources towards achieving their goals.    But a realm within the midst of this chaos suddenly disappeared as though it had never existed, its tides faded, taking along with it a race called the Nordens.    This set of lifeforms have had one basic characteristic with which they identified themselves, which is their State - Peace and Matter - Light.     Milleniums after, when their existence to the other realms had now become a myth, a child was born with a State and Matter that went against the status quo. By name Project Kied, he was confirmed to be of the State - War and Matter - Dark and Night.    Temporarily sent on exile after destroying his pillars of light, Kied finds his higher form - Equivax - while sailing the astral seas and he is trained by Equivax into becoming a cosmic pirate, who are the only form of resistance capable of challenging the feudal orders.    But Kied is fated to be more than a cosmic pirate, just as Norx Hade Zex had said, "... THE DARK CHILD OF WAR".     Will he be brave enough to pursue his destiny regardless of the trails and challenges ? Can he fearlessly grin at the death of day ? For in the beginning it was night.
