WitheredDreams

In the aftermath of an endless void, a divine spark gave rise to three sibling deities—Amaterasu, the radiant creator; Tsukihana, the contemplative mediator; and Susano’o, the storm-bringer. Together, they shaped Kaminoyama, a world of beauty and balance, their harmony birthing sacred beasts, yokai, and mortals endowed with infinite potential. But perfection is fragile.

A clash of ideologies among the siblings spiraled into a devastating war, plunging the land into chaos. Susano’o’s storms corrupted the lifeblood of the world, while Amaterasu’s light fought to preserve it, and Tsukihana sought balance between her warring siblings. Their conflict shattered the heavens, extinguished suns, and birthed dark forces that reshaped the world forever.

The final battle saw heart-wrenching sacrifices, as Tsukihana gave her life to sever Susano’o’s chaos from the world. The war ended, but at a tremendous cost—a single sun, a lone moon, and a fractured realm scarred by darkness.

Now, with the gods withdrawn, mortals must forge their own path in a land where hope flickers like dying embers. What lies ahead in the ashes of creation? Only those with the courage to rise will uncover the truth—and face the remnants of divine fury.
