Elain Lucien

Bloodstained Sovereign

In the penumbra of a fallen empire, **Lucien Valefor** walks alone, his shadow stretching across broken lands that once knelt before his bloodline. The last scion of the Valefor dynasty moves through the twilight realm between vengeance and despair, each footfall a testament to promises whispered in the dark. "Memory is the cruelest blade," he murmurs to the night, his voice carrying the weight of a thousand silenced screams. "It cuts deeper than steel, leaving wounds that time refuses to heal." The betrayal that stripped him of his birthright lives within him now—not as a wound, but as a companion, intimate and ever-present. His **Nyx Ascendance** pulses beneath his skin, darkness coalescing around his fingers like liquid obsidian. This power, born of sacrifice and suffering, is not merely wielded—it is experienced, a symphony of shadow that resonates with the hollow chambers of his heart. "They believed death would silence me," Lucien contemplates, watching the darkness dance between his palms. "But in death, I found a truth they fear to face—that endings are merely thresholds to more terrible beginnings." The moon bearing witness to his soliloquy casts silver light upon the scars that map his journey—each mark a verse in the epic of his fall and inevitable rise. His enemies sleep behind walls of stone and privilege, dreaming peaceful dreams of empires built upon his family's ashes. "The architecture of revenge requires patience," he tells the stillness around him. "Each moment of their false security is a stone in the monument of their eventual ruin." He is not the prince they remember—that man perished in the bloody theater of their betrayal. What returns to them now is something hollowed and hallowed by suffering, a vessel filled with purpose so pure it transcends morality. "I do not seek justice," Lucien acknowledges, his eyes reflecting landscapes of yet-unfought battles. "Justice implies balance, and some scales can never be balanced—only shattered and reforged." In the distance, the spires of his ancestral home pierce the horizon like accusing fingers. The throne that awaits him is no longer merely a seat of power but an altar upon which he will sacrifice those who believed him conquered. "They will learn," he whispers to the approaching dawn, "that nightmares do not fade with waking. Some terrors follow you into the light."

The Incomplete Ethereal Blacksmith

Surviving the tragedy that took his family and destroyed the small town where he was raised, Lucien Ashthorn now walks a new path at the Sanctum of Blacksmiths—the empire's most prestigious academy for those who seek to master the art of forging Arcane Sigils. However, Lucien is no ordinary student. The Sigil Hammer that should have been a Blacksmith’s pride is now incomplete, shattered into fragments he himself does not fully understand. This weakness places countless limitations on his growth, making it difficult for him to compete with other students. To compensate for his shortcomings, he relies on his intellect, carefully strategizing each step he takes. In harsh conditions and fierce competition, Lucien continuously adapts. At the academy, Lucien begins to realize that the world of Arcane Sigil forging is far greater than he ever imagined. Rivalries among students, Forge Sigil experiments that could turn deadly, and the mysteries surrounding the Abyssal Labyrinth—a place where wild spirits roam and true blacksmiths test their courage—await him. But the deeper he delves into this world, the more he understands that this journey is about more than just becoming the strongest blacksmith. Amidst the ruins of his past and battles yet to come, he searches for something more profound—a reason to live. Is the answer hidden within the fragments of his past? Or must he forge it himself, amidst fire and steel, in a world where only those who shape their own fate will survive?

The Hollow's Rebirth Lucien, a remorseless killer known as the Hollow, meets his end mid-dissection, only to find himself in the afterlife. Anubis, god of the dead, attempts to usher him through the Nine Gates of Hell, but Lucien's apathy and morbid curiosity remain, even in death. His journey takes an unexpected turn when he is snatched away by the Sphinx, a celestial being acting on mysterious orders. Lucien is deposited at the mouth of a cave, where a booming voice offers him a second chance at life in exchange for "cleansing demons." This encounter triggers a chain of cataclysmic events: a blinding explosion, a chilling proclamation from Lucifer, and Lucien's apparent annihilation. Yet, from the ashes, a figure emerges—Lucien, reborn, or perhaps something more. He finds himself amidst a brutal gladiatorial arena, a twisted entertainment for demonic overlords who have conquered Earth after a cataclysmic "Great Ashing" blocked out the sun and unleashed hordes of hellish creatures.

He is driven by instinct, muscle memory from a past life as an assassin, and a growing awareness of the demonic forces at play. He fights, he kills, and he begins to understand the true nature of his new reality. Lucien's path is intertwined with ancient powers and prophecies. Lucifer, it is revealed, seeks an emissary, and Lucien is destined to fill that role. Hades and Anubis, rulers of the underworld, are aware of this looming threat and desperately try to stop it, but their efforts are thwarted by the Sphinx's intervention. As Lucien navigates the brutal arena, his powers awaken. He embraces the chaos, his emptiness finding a twisted purpose in the carnage. He is no longer just the Hollow; he is something more, something darker, a force of chaos unleashed upon a world already consumed by darkness. His escape from the arena marks the beginning of a new chapter, a journey into the heart of the demonic dominion, where he will ultimately confront his destiny and the forces that have shaped his existence.
