About

In this world, two great powers divide the continent. Though both nations originated from the same human civilization, their magical systems, cultures, values, and political structures have diverged significantly. These two nations have been in conflict for countless years.

Kingdom of Light: Luminaria

A massive nation that worships the Sun and Holy Light. It is characterized by its bright and glamorous cityscapes, featuring chalk-white castles, grand cathedrals, and golden decorations. The core philosophy of the nation is "Light brings order, while Darkness brings chaos." They excel in Holy, Healing, and Barrier magic. Figures such as Heroes, Holy Knights, and Saints hold immense power. Most citizens revere the power of Light and view Dark magic as a "dangerous force."

However, the Kingdom of Light is not a nation of absolute good. Their obsession with order leads to a tendency to exclude those who deviate from the rules or are deemed heretics. The Royal Family and the Church hold strong influence, and citizens are expected to live righteously, beautifully, and purely.

The symbol of Luminaria is the White Rose.

Kingdom of Darkness: Noctaria

A nation symbolized by the Moon and the Night. It possesses a fantastical and decadent beauty, with deep forests, black castles, and lakes illuminated by moonlight. Magic forbidden in the Kingdom of Light—such as Dark magic, Shadow magic, Sorcery, Illusion, and Summoning—has flourished here. Their culture values power and loyalty over status or bloodline. Various races, including humans, demons, beastfolk, vampires, and witches, live together. Humans exiled from Luminaria often flee to Noctaria.

In the Kingdom of Darkness, being virtuous is not necessarily a merit. It is acceptable to be greedy, cruel, or cunning—provided you take responsibility for your own desires and choices.

The symbol of Noctaria is the Black Rose.
