I yawned, fighting off sleep as my professor droned on about the three-body problem—even though it was notoriously unsolvable. 'Geez, why do we need to learn this?' I thought, shaking my head. Suddenly, a holographic screen materialized before my eyes, its message slicing through the monotony: "Moonfall Has Begun.

Retreat, retrea—ahhh!' The great beings of the previous era have long been buried in the annals of epic, while ignorant mortals rise, polishing their cannons and setting sail. Yet, though the times have changed, they have not changed completely. With a [Captain’s Log] in hand, Byron plunges headfirst into this mysterious, savage, blood-soaked... and crumbling age of maritime exploration. Surviving the War of the Roses, he ascends to the extraordinary through the blood of the seafaring pirates, climbing the [Ladder of Glory]. With his [Iron Law of Sovereignty: The Pirate Code], he commands the seven seas, crowned as [The Wild Hunt: The Bloodthirsty Storm King].

Because of this, you defied the heavens and successfully changed your fate. You acquired S rank in your evaluation. Your rewards are…]

This power stems from three core aspects: the Vessel, the Soul, and the Conscious Mind. Those who walk the path of Ascension come from all walks of life.

New factions rise with their own ideas of how the path should be walked, and in this modern age. The new Ascended will walk the path and face whatever it may hold.
