Chapter 1: The Rise of the Eternal Emperor
In the time before darkness ruled the world, there was a wanderer whose name has long been lost to history. The man who would become the Eternal Emperor journeyed into the Eternal Dark Forest, a place feared by all, where even the bravest dared not enter. Legends told of the forest’s twisted trees and the ancient powers that lay hidden within its depths, waiting to be claimed by those bold enough to seek them.
The wanderer, driven by a thirst for power, discovered the Obsidian Crown, a relic from a forgotten age. Said to grant control over shadows, the crown was forged by the Shadow Lords, ancient beings of darkness who ruled before the dawn of time. When the wanderer placed the crown upon his head, he was forever changed—no longer mortal, but something far more terrifying. He had become the Eternal Emperor, master of the shadows.
Armed with the Obsidian Crown's dark power, the Eternal Emperor began his conquest. His armies of shadow swept across the land, extinguishing the light and plunging the once-sunlit kingdoms into eternal night. The first to fall was the Kingdom of Light, its rulers powerless to stop the advancing darkness. The Eternal Emperor’s dominion grew as one by one, the great kingdoms of the world crumbled before him.
From his black stone citadel, the Eternal Emperor ruled the world under an endless night. His name became legend, both feared and worshipped by those who lived in the shadows. Yet even in his absolute power, a whisper of unease stirred in his heart. For he knew that even the darkest night could not last forever, and somewhere in the world, light awaited its return.
