The battle above the Immortal Nirvana Stronghold in the Eighth Realm was an event that would mark the history of the realm for eons to come. It was the first open appearance of the Scarlet King—the mysterious man from the Ninth Realm—who had tricked the Knights of the Immortal Nirvana Kingdom, captured the Nirvana Crown Prince, and stood alone against the entire might of the realm. In that clash, he accomplished the unthinkable: he slew the Realm Ruler.
In the days that followed that cataclysmic event, an unnatural silence blanketed the Eighth Realm. The Alpha Omega Overgods—beings who once ruled with absolute confidence—vanished into hiding, terrified that the Scarlet King would continue his hunt. Yet no further news came. No sightings, no massacres, no ripples of his terrifying power. It was as if he had vanished from existence entirely.
That disappearance created a power vacuum, and as always, nature abhorred such emptiness.
What came next was inevitable.
Civil war.
