STORY:
Thousands of years ago, the world was one enormous realm.
Humans, Angels and Demons lived in the same world, while an ancient primordial power known as TWILIGHT existed between Light and Darkness.
Twilight was neither good nor evil.
It was balance.
Ancient civilizations discovered that Twilight could potentially control every element and every form of power. Because of this, Humans, Angels and Demons began fighting over its secrets.
The conflict eventually became known as:
THE FIRST TWILIGHT WAR.
The war became so powerful that the world itself began breaking apart.
The sky cracked.
The oceans separated.
Ancient kingdoms disappeared.
The original world was divided into THREE DIMENSIONS:
ELITE DIMENSION:
The realm of the strongest warriors, legendary kingdoms and powerful civilizations.
MID DIMENSION:
The central world containing cities, villages, guilds, markets, banks, dungeons, forests and ordinary adventurers.
GHOST DIMENSION:
A forbidden dimension filled with corrupted energy, dead gods, Ghostborn and powers that should never have existed.
The world was also divided into SEVEN GREAT ISLANDS:
FIRE
ICE
WATER
AIR
ROCK
PLANT
MAGNETIC
Seven major races survived the destruction:
HUMAN
ELF
DEMON
ANGEL
BEASTMAN
DRAGONKIN
GHOSTBORN
A mysterious legend remained after the war.
The legend spoke of an impossible being who possessed Human, Demon and Angel blood.
An existence known as:
THE ARC DEMON.
Ancient records claim that this being could potentially control every element and wield every weapon.
But the records were destroyed.
The name of the Arc Demon was erased from history.
Nobody knows why.

CHAPTER END:
Deep inside an abandoned ancient ruin, show a broken stone statue.
The statue depicts a mysterious young warrior.
His face is damaged and impossible to recognize.
One eye of the statue is covered.
One hand is wrapped in ancient cloth.
Ancient symbols surround the statue.
An old inscription is barely visible:
"THE ONE WHO WAS ERASED..."
A mysterious character approaches the statue.
They touch the ancient inscription.
The entire ruin begins shaking.

IMPORTANT STORY RULES:
Do NOT fully reveal Shadow yet.
Do NOT reveal his complete powers yet.
Do NOT reveal why he disappeared.
Do NOT explain the covered eye.
Do NOT explain the cursed hand.
Do NOT reveal the true identity of the Arc Demon.
Only leave clues, ancient records, symbols, statues and mysterious dialogue.
The purpose of Arc 1 is to establish the world, history, dimensions, races, islands, power system and the ancient mystery surrounding Shadow.
The reader must finish Arc 1 asking:
"Who is Shadow?"
"Why was his name erased?"
"Why does the ancient statue look like him?"
"What happened during the First Twilight War?"
"Who is waiting for his return?"
End with a powerful cliffhanger that makes readers desperate for Arc 2: SHADOW CONCEPT.
