Closed Due to Lack of Involvement and Commitment
Once upon a time, we were terrified of the monsters under the bed. We would cry to our parents, asking for their help and for their protection. We would spray holy water and eat garlic, hoping to prevent horrors we could not imagine, horrors we could only visit and realize in our dreams. It was a simpler time, when things born of shadows lurked in the dark, and never came into the light of day.
What comfort that was.
What do you do when your nightmares become reality? When your dreams become sorrows? What do you do when the lines between fantasy and reality are impossibly blurred, leaving science to become myth and myth to become science? Do you run, do you hide in the shadows you once feared? Do you join the hoard and march on, creating new nightmares each second?
It does not matter whether or not you are ready to answer that question, for the end has finished. It is a new era, a new world, a new beginning. The light has been snuffed out, obliterated, and left to the fate of all things forgotten. It is a reign of darkness, a world order founded on chaos.
What divides us gives us hope, prominence, and courage. There is no question of unity. There is no question of loyalty. It is only of survival, of escaping the darkness with some semblance of sanity.
Will you be devoured by the dark?
Will you survive?
Not even I can tell.
It all had began with a simple mistake. Young vampires and werewolves gave into their instincts, turning more and more humans each day. The rate was exponential, exceeding anything that their respective communities could have hidden. It petrified those who clung to the Olde Ways, unable to cope with the fact that light may shine upon them.
A young vampiress, the Lady Grey, rallied a majority of the vampires to arms. These vampires no longer hid in the shadows, but began to infiltrate the mortal governments. With Brexit and rising conservatism that led to mass riots, protests, and resignations, Lady Grey and her followers rose to power. Other sects responded to this grab for power, forming their own factions and houses. A rival vampire group, disapproving of Lady Grey's destructive and nihilistic tendencies, formed the House of Chronos. Werewolves, realizing their predicament, made a desperate plea for unity, but it was too late.
Three massive wars were raged between what would come to be known as the House of Grey and the House of Chronos. Each war, the other houses would be asked to pledge their lives in the conflict in order to avoid genocide at the hands of the ruling houses. The bloodshed and casualties continued for a hundred years, with countries falling and buildings being turned to rubble.
A new world has emerged. Our story focuses on the area that was once the United Kingdom, divided among the factions. The House of Grey continues to rule with an iron fist, despite the ongoing war with the House of Chronos. Cities held by vampire have massive constructions erected above them, steel domes that block out the sun. Energy is harvested from solar panels fixed on top of these, with humans, werewolves, and hybrids risking death in order to repair them.
In the midst of war and chaos, however, a movement is growing. Spurred by hybrids and those who wish to see a societal change, this rebel group is known as the House of Janus. They are a secret network, thought to be no more than an idea in reality. Rebellion is looming on the horizon, ready to reclaim this land of night, and allow the sun to shine once more.
