*Nox Noctis – prologue

Existence has changed...

Years have passed, and society has changed dramatically. Humans have become extinct and only I exist. Werewolves and vampires let a worldwide revolt against the humans, and an eternal eclipse has risen. The Earth was swallowed by darkness and now, what appears to be, a black sun floats in the endless void of space.

Existence has changed…

Your so called, present is now a distant past. Everyone is dead or a sin against god, my life now feels like the greatest sin of all. God may have a plan to twist the fates of many to destroy what’s left, or to change the environment of Earth to fit his sick and twisted mind.

Existence has changed...
I am now infamous across the globe as the final sentient being of a race that should face eternal damnation. Now I live in, what seems to be, exile with only my two friends to stand against the world with me (though they now be sins similar to me).

Existence has changed...

They both were human once but were morphed to be beasts like the rest of the world. The werewolf named Michael is the muscle and egghead, though he is a massively self-centered jerk who would sacrifice my life to be stronger. Then there’s the Vampire calling himself Stephen, he’s an excellent gun-slinger and can cast lethal spells to kill whomever he wants at far-distance, but he’s constantly looking at a mirror and complimenting his own looks and being one of the biggest narcissist pig that the lord has ever spawned in history.

Existence has changed…

The location of this tale takes place in, what was Ottawa, a city by the name of “Guriandal” (pronounced guri-un-dale) which happens to harbour my safe house; the Northwest half of the city was claimed by werewolves, the Southeast half by the vampires. Guriandal was completely consumed in chaos, darkness, and ominous glooms. The three of us maybe be infamous, but that doesn’t prevent us from wondering the streets of whichever area we please, but with the hounds of the guards hot on our trail, just waiting for us to slip up and leave evidence for them to accuse us and brand us criminals. Until that day, we are innocent... at least that’s what it seems.

Existence has changed…

I still live because I can cast healing magic and cast spells to make me or my friends stronger while weakening enemies. I also have a large arsenal of weapons at my disposal to destroy any obstacles that await me down the road of my destiny. But inside, inside me, I feel... scared of myself and what I can become.

Existence has changed…

Together, we seek a type of treasure called “Nox Gems”. Crystallized darkness in the form of gems of pure black and emptiness, and legend has it, when all six gems come together, they summon a powerful entity. The entity is of an unknown race and has a description of mystery, but mythology proves true, when the entity is summoned, it can grant it’s summoner with any power he or she wishes. Wealth, strength, looks and charms, to bend elements to your will, to control minds, even time manipulation! This entity can grant it to you. But it’s difficult since the gems have been scattered to several locations fabled to be near the city mentioned. We have investigated and confirmed that they are all here, but exact locations remain unknown.

Existence has changed…

Michael searches for power and to be engraved in history as the most powerful being to exist with power, brutality and wisdom surpassing all others. Stephen searches for the ability to raise his long lost love from the grave and, with her, the rest of the dead to rule a kingdom of the resurrected as the “Lich King”. I search for immortality to defy god and show it that humans are a race that shall never cease to draw breath, and will forever roam the Earth as undying.

They say every beginning has an ending, and every ending a beginning. This is where the story begins, but we shall pull on the thread that is destiny and see how it unravels the ending.




*Nox Noctis = night (latin to english)
