Chapter 1 - Prologue

Long ago, before the notion of Arcana Flux ever existed. humanity believed itself the peak of mortal existence. The 20th century thrived in peace and progress, unaware that the sky itself carried their undoing.

From the heavens, a colossal comet approached, unseen until it eclipsed the moon in the night sky. Nations panicked. They gathered, desperate to preserve the world. Two paths stood before them: The world's arsenal of nuclear fire… or The elites' secret weapon, a backup forged in the shadows. Humanity chose the latter.

When the comet descended upon the earth, the weapon was unleashed. But it failed. The heavens fell into the ocean, birthing a tsunami that devoured continents. Africa. Europe. The Americas. Few were spared. The comet sank into the abyss, striking the ocean floor. Tectonic plates screamed, continents drifted, and the earth itself tore apart. In days, three-quarters of humanity was erased.

And then, silence.

From that silence, light.

An indigo radiance engulfed the world, a flash that lingered for five eternal seconds. When it faded, the earth was changed—renewed, reborn. Humanity found itself altered, awakened. They called this force the Arcana Flux—"Arcana" for its mystic nature, "Flux" for the boundless energy that flowed within them. It was power, both gift and curse, and it became the foundation of survival.

From the ruins of nations rose twelve kingdoms, bastions of order in a shattered world. For a time, peace return to humanity. Technology flourished, cities gleamed, and humanity believed it had been given a second chance.

But that peace was fragile.

From the shadows of legend, creatures emerged—beasts of myth made flesh. They struck without warning, then vanished without reason, leaving kingdoms in ruin. Humanity named them Myths. For three decades, war raged. Four kingdoms fell, devoured by the endless tide of monsters. Only eight remain, as they stood defiant against extinction.

And in one of these—the Kingdom of Velvetia—a boy named Levi will awaken to the harsh truth of his world. His journey, born of survival, will decide not only his fate… but perhaps the fate of all mankind.
