<p> The apocalypse is near... -No. It already arrived centuries ago. </p> <p> Billions of lives across the world were snuffed out in an unspeakable tragedy that tore through the world. Humanity never recovered since. </p> <p> Yet, that has all been forgotten now. The past was the past. And besides, no one cared enough to remember such miserable tales. When even surviving to the next day was uncertain, human empathy was crushed beneath the instinct to survive. </p> <p> Now, the only speck of civilization left in the world was a dense mound of misery known only as the City. It was ruled by the shadowy Heads, and governed by harsh and unforgiving laws. </p> <p> In the center of the new world, at the heart of despair, existed heaps of corrupted souls; the worst scum that this lawless era created. </p> <p> The strongest of them were given their own special title: "Impurity of the City". A designation given only to the most dangerous beings of the world. </p> <p> Each of these creatures, whether humanoid or otherwise, could shake the very foundation of reality with the power they held in their palms. </p> <p> They were the world's peak. A peak formed of blood and souls. To ascend the peak was to fight against the heavens themselves, to pile corpse upon corpse until one finally reached the stars. </p> <p> And challenge the gods. </p> <p> ... </p> <p> In this bleak world, a desperate boy found himself in an alleyway. Unfamiliar scents and sights assaulted his senses. </p> <p> His joints groaned softly as he pushed himself to his feet. </p> <p> "Where... am I?" A shivering whisper blew past his lips. Smoke stung his nose. The stench of blood crawled in his veins. </p> <p> His future was lined ahead, a path of blood and bones. </p> <p> Three expressionless porcelain masks. An empty smile, decorated by glassy doll eyes. Millions of eyes sewn into the sky, dazzling galaxies. </p> <p> So many Stars lit the night; these were the obstacles he had to face. </p> <p> And so began the Impurity's Ascension. </p>
