Love Thy Divinity

The 18-year-old Yamato suddenly found himself in the after life, but is unsure on how exactly he ended up there. However his reaction lacked the surprise or confusion one would usually expect form someone in his situation, as he would soon prove to be anything but ordinary. Having always failed finding meaning in his life and those of others, his emotional numbness and tendency to view most people and activities as beneath him becomes apparent when he meets the angel Yuki. Meant to judge his life and actions, things take a turn when he tricks her into agreeing to a wager that would change his and her fate. Achieving victory over the angel, he acquires her devotion and servitude, though he soon discovers the true face her devotion to be pure obsession instead of the benevolence she showed him at first. After a confrontation with God himself about his changed fate, he and Yuki are sent to a new world in hopes of finding what his previous world lacked: meaning. Yuki however has made it her sole purpose to win him over, baiting the slightest bit of affection out of him, genuine or not. Even just experiencing theatrical romance scenarios, which she artificially creates at the cost of others, becomes a normal occurrence. Though not reciprocating her feelings just yet, Yamato cannot stop himself from being captivated by both her beauty and emotional intensity, seeing her as someone who might finally give him the emotional experience he seeks.

Exiled from his world, Vurckair Vecturion arrives to Ell'Thane; A planet where magic reigns supreme to an extent he has never had the misfortune to witness before. Knowledge is power. This dogma doesn't apply in Ell'Thane. Whoever has the power, will be able to seize knowledge. Nevertheless. Ignorance is what has set it's roots on this world in the form of the Lanigiro. A current of thought that believes in the eradication of Magic. Seeing this gift as an illness. Funnily enough, they use the very same Magic to commit terrorist attacks, taking the lives of countless people. And this is the problem. Ell'Thane is dependent on a balance that comes from the Singularities, energy cores present in every living being, unique and unrepeatable. But dying without triggering the Singularity creates holes in space, and this breaches lead to places where gemstone monoliths called Quartzals, sprout Braddiers. Wisps who possess people in acts that eventually will ensure the destruction of the world. However. Ell'Thane is not just a magical world; its sentient. Bestowing upon all those with a Singularity the blessing and curse of a magical connection that serves as a streaming platform to share information, increase general awareness, and actively help others, regardless of distance. That is why the more people watch you, the more Support Points are generated. Except there is a small catch. Support Points earned by any means cannot be used for direct personal gain, if not mandatory occupied to assist others. But such simplicity is far from the norm. Because in a world where status and individual power are placed above mutual cooperation; Teamwork, is a long forgotten term that is forcefully coming back. Not by finding common ground, but due to reaching a dire conclusion tied to self-preservation. Which is why Vurckair must decide between becoming an integral part of Ell'Thane; Or ensure its demise; So he can go to another world. Because as an Exiled, he belongs anywhere…
