# SLOWPACED # WORLDBUILDING Since the beginning of times, the Thearch of Gods, the “true creators”, have existed. They were benevolent and made the worlds, and did not rule over the mortals with an iron fist. They even allowed non-believers into the Paradise of Gods. However, the evils that lurked amidst the lands, born from the sins of the old, created a fierce environment for those who wanted to leave peacefully. But, there would soon be one to cast those sins away and start the beginning of a new world. “…” “I have learnt my purpose. To create the foundation for a new world, under the gaze of the Gods.” “With my Quill, my Thorn Crown, and my Scholar’s Armor… I shall become “Lord.” In Their will.”

The world's messed up. Monsters started falling from the sky. Flesh-eating creatures that almost wiped out Humanity.But then, people began to awaken strange abilities—Gifts, they called them. Supernatural powers that gave us a fighting chance. With these new abilities, we fought back, and for a while, it seemed like we were winning. Life slowly started to return to something that resembled normal. That is, until the Curses began. No one knows where they came from or why they started, but one thing was clear: they weren’t Gifts. They were something darker, twisted, as if reflecting the worst parts of humanity. People whispered that the Cursed were dangerous, unstable. Some even believed they were monsters in human skin. I used to think having a Gift would be the best thing that could ever happen to me. I dreamed of it, even. Too bad I didn’t get mine until the darkest moment of my life. And it wasn’t a Gift at all. But hey, like I said before, the world’s messed up.
