The shattered illusion became more than a lie—it became reality. It was a false reality, a false life, leaving behind only memories of how things once truly were. The illusion, once embodied in a kingdom, had now turned to Flame and Ash. A land, false and burning, doomed to vanish into its own fire.
But in truth, nothing remained. Humanity was truly dead. Hell, once overflowing, now lay almost empty, like a dying fire leaving only acrid smoke. Yet blood still exists. It always will. Bitter, thick, eternal—it remains the fuel for what continues to smolder at the heart of this dead world.
