The valley of Sarvalaya basked in an ethereal glow, its tranquility a stark contrast to the storm brewing within the hearts of those gathered. On one side stood Prince Asvara, the pride of Shatrilok, the demon realm, his crimson eyes burning with both hope and skepticism. Opposite him stood King Rudranath, a figure of wisdom and authority, draped in the ceremonial golds of Aryavarta. Between them rested the Shard of Satya, a divine artifact forged to seal an unprecedented alliance between demons and humans.

But peace is fragile, and greed often lurks in the shadows. Asvara reached to seal the pact, only to be betrayed. A human conspirator, manipulated by a vengeful demon general, shattered the shard. Its magic erupted violently, striking Asvara and splitting his very soul.

The prince collapsed as his essence fractured into two beings: Rikash, a figure of raw fury and ambition, and Kael, a manifestation of compassion and wisdom. Abandoned by both sides, the fractured prince disappeared into the wilderness, leaving a world on the brink of war.
