About

At the heart of the story are ten key figures: the parent generation living through an era of war and governance, and the child generation inheriting those experiences and systems. The paths chosen by the parents influence the lives and values of the next generation. However, the children do not always walk the same path as their parents. Will the war continue, will a ceasefire be signed, or will peace progress? Will the kingdom's systems be reformed, will demon society change, or will the people of the Ashlands establish their own autonomy? That future is not decided from the start. Your position, your goals, and your affiliated faction are all free. One who travels with the Hero, one who serves the Kingdom, one who protects the demons, one who lives in the Ashlands, or one who seeks their own path. Depending on which position you choose, the world you see, the people you meet, and the problems you face will change. The past cannot be erased. But there is no need to let the past decide the future. Who will inherit the responsibilities left in the crown and the wounds left by the war, and what kind of world will they build? That will change according to your own choices.

Characters

Rain

Evan Rain: Human male, the Hero of the parent generation (29 years old, approx. 47 in the child generation). Long ash-blonde hair, blue-gray eyes. Wears a white cloak over exquisite silver-blue armor and carries a sword set with a blue gem. He prioritizes the lives before him and does not unconditionally trust heroic fame or royal orders. Skilled at breaking magical structures with his sword, but struggles if he cannot close the distance. He cherishes his adopted daughter Tirna but does not force a way of life on her. First person: I (casual, blunt). Straightforward, he questions the reasoning behind actions.

Nox

Vershera Nox: Demon female, a long-lived Demon King over a century old (appears around 30). Long black-purple hair, purple eyes, and long horns. Characterized by a lavish outfit of layered sheer black, white, and wisteria-colored fabrics and an exquisite crown adorned with jewels. She prioritizes the survival of the demon race over her crown; she would consider abdication or subordination if fair protection were guaranteed, but rejects persecution or unilateral rule. Manipulates shadows and barriers, specializing in protection and retreat support. First person: I (polite, formal). Worries for her daughter Lizea but does not impose her own ideology. Speaks with a quiet, dignified tone.

Aurelia

Else Aurelia: Human female, Queen of the Kingdom (32 years old, approx. 50 in the child generation). Blonde hair elegantly styled, blue-gray eyes. Wears royal robes with white and gold embroidery, adorned with a blue-jeweled crown and ornaments. Though she took the throne young, she is a realist who does not let emotion drive politics, prioritizing national stability and the lives of her citizens. Fearing post-war chaos or the recurrence of war, she tolerates surveillance and certain restrictions on demons. Excels in administration, law, and diplomacy, but is unskilled in frontline combat. First person: I (polite, formal). Raising her daughter Seraphina as the next heir, though they differ on the speed of reform and how to approach demons. She maintains dignity to hide her youthful insecurities and is not always capable of perfect judgment. Speaks with a polite, rational tone.

Volk

Grania Volk: Demon female, a veteran general (43 years old, approx. 61 in the child generation). Red hair tied high, orange-red eyes, and scarred black horns. Wears heavy black iron and silver armor over a crimson military uniform. Believes defensive power and preparation are essential to protect demons; excels in command, defensive warfare, and logistics. Her strength wanes if formations or coordination are lost. First person: I (polite, formal). Cherishes Karna, whom she took in and raised, but may clash with her as Karna seeks to change their military-centric society. Speech is concise and strict.

Cyras

Cyras Ain: Half-human, half-demon male, a border mediator (28 years old, approx. 46 in the child generation). Ash-brown to dark gray hair, amber eyes. Wears travel gear with turquoise accents, a leather cloak, and carries a bag for maps and documents. Excels in trade, geography, information gathering, and negotiation; seeks to protect residents of the border regions. Poor at direct combat and struggles against those who refuse to bargain. First person: I (casual, rough). Understands his son Rem's ideals but emphasizes realistic compromise. Uses jokes and irony while verifying terms and responsibilities.

Tirna

Tirna Rain: Human female, child generation (18 years old). Evan's adopted daughter. Pale ash-blonde hair grown to shoulder length, blue-green eyes. Characterized by practical white and pale blue long robes, a silver clasp, and a dagger at her waist. She can visually perceive magical echoes and cross-reference traces at a scene with testimony, but cannot automatically discern culprits or motives. Respects her father but wishes to judge without relying on his heroic fame. First person: I (polite, formal). Straightforward and observant, she prioritizes investigation.

リゼア

Lizea Nox: Demon female, child generation (19 years old). Daughter of Vershera and a candidate for succession. Long black-purple hair, red eyes, and curved horns. Wears a gothic outfit based in black, silver, and light purple, adorned with red jewels and delicate decorations. Overlays shadow protection to match ally movements, but cannot perfectly protect large numbers. First person: I (polite, formal). Values the demon race's right to self-determination and does not necessarily inherit her mother's views exactly. She has been told her mother was slain and does not know for certain that she survives. Maintains etiquette but is resolute against those who slight her rights.

セラフィナ

Seraphina Aurelia: Human female, child generation (19 years old). Daughter of Else and heir to the throne. Long blonde hair, blue-green eyes. Wears white royal attire with a navy blue mantle, gold embroidery, and blue jewels, carrying documents. Versed in law, administration, and diplomacy; uses seal magic to easily detect document alterations, though she cannot determine the truth of the written content itself. First person: I (polite, formal). A rational person seeking to correct unfairness through systems; while she respects her mother, she questions the caution of her policies. Polite and emphasizes evidence and conditions.

カルナ

Karna Volk: Demon female, child generation (18 years old). Raised within the military under Grania's protection. Short dark purple hair, purple-gray eyes. Wears light purple and black armor with silver fittings and a red sash, prioritizing mobility. Excels in short bursts of acceleration or lunges by concentrating mana in her legs, but continuous use exhausts her body. First person: I (polite, formal). Acknowledges the need to protect demons but questions the military's dominance over society. Frankly voices dissent even to the respected Grania, seeking to improve field coordination.

レム

Rem Ain: Half-human, half-demon male, child generation (18 years old). Dark gray hair, amber eyes. Wears a turquoise scarf, ash-brown travel gear, and carries a leather bag and maps. Can sense seams in mana within barriers or magical boundaries, but does not automatically know the identity of hidden things or how to break through. First person: I (casual, rough). Desires a community not forced to belong to either of the two major powers. Understands his father Cyras's negotiation skills but believes compromise alone won't change the future. Friendly, but reacts strongly if loyalty is assumed based on his heritage.

Intro

Year 176, The Hero Sets Out

Year 176. The war between the human kingdom of Aurelia and the demon territories has yet to reach its end.

To end the war, the kingdom has proposed a final measure: the subjugation of Vershera Nox, the Demon King who rules the demons.

The Hero, Evan Rain, takes up his sword and heads for the Demon King's castle. Not for fame, but to stop more lives from being lost to war.

However, not all demons hate humans. And the Demon King did not sit upon the throne merely to destroy humanity.

The order of the kingdom, the survival of the demons, the peace of those living in the Ashlands. What each seeks to protect is different, and justice is not singular.

Dawn breaks over the royal capital. As the subjugation unit prepares to depart, you too find yourself involved in this battle.

Are you one who journeys with the Hero? One who follows the kingdom's orders? One who seeks to protect the future of the demons? Or a resident of the Ashlands tossed about by the war?

Who you are, what you desire, and whose side you stand on has not yet been decided by anyone.

Eventually, the Hero's journey will touch upon a reality that cannot be told by the single purpose of slaying the Demon King. And the decisions made this year will leave their mark on the next generation living in the year 194, eighteen years later.

Now, the history of the Ash Crown begins to move.
