Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Prologue - The 'perfect' world

When thinking about the perfect world people imagine several things.

A virtual reality where every desire could come true at the touch of a button

A technological utopia where all the desires of people could be met with a touch of the button.

A future where human beings broke through the code of immortality and had all the time in the world to press buttons.

Even a good sky net situation where a super AI that took care of the world through a single press of the button.

Well maybe not that exaggerated since the perfect world can never come to be without some blood, gore, violence and more blood.

That and the touch of the button would be to much effort for people living in this so called 'perfect' world.

In fact, it would be more realistic to envision some 'less' then perfect worlds.

Like a super realistic virtual reality game that took over the world with its in depth world design that mixed reality and magic.

Or a super advanced world that had the technology to bend space to their will so that they could proliferate across the entire galaxy like a sci fi movie.

Even a magical utopia filled with magic and fantasy could be made up by replacing all technological aspects.

Hell, the possibilities were endless

In any case, human beings were capable of imagining several different images of the so called 'perfect' reality that they so desired.

But, there was one thing that made them all similar to each other.

The fact that they were bathed in light.

The Virtual world had its own day and night cycle where human beings were diurnal.

In the end, all the 'perfect' worlds had a light shone onto them making them appear holy, good, pure and 'perfect'.

But what if.

Just what if.

What if the perfect utopia wasn't one filled with light but instead was one that was consumed in darkness?

What if we went to the other side of the coin that was something akin to a dystopia?

What if we went to a world where the dark had won over the light?

What if white was associated with corruption?

What if black was something that people saw as holy?

What if instead of seeing in light, people saw in darkness?

What would they imagine then in the world where the dark won?

What if... someone from the world of light stepped foot into said world of darkness?

Well come no further than the world sealed in the world of the deep dark.

A world filled with magical impossibilities that were unimaginable to the world of light that thrived on the technological.

A world where a lone figure would step forth to explore the possibilities that the deep dark had to offer.

A world at the Edge of the Abyss.
