“In the beginning, God made the world.

He created the darkness, and the light.
The living and Death.

He made the creatures of the world,

And people in His likeness to reign over them.

And so it was that the people multiplied,

And grew apart from the Lord.

They became corrupt,

And wrought with greed and malice.

In God’s anger and sadness,

He struck the world,

Shattering it to pieces.

Now His people remain scattered and lost,

As the Lord continues to watch over them

With a great bitterness in His heart.”

All his life Cain grew up in a monastery. It was an old stone structure, surrounded by a thick jungle. No one ever travelled very far from the monastery, however. Beyond a certain point, known as the Ring of Sacrifice, people disappeared, never to be heard from again.

Cain’s home wasn’t a monastery in the traditional sense. Having led a life in seclusion due to the Ring, they branched off from the norms to suit the life they were forced into, leaving behind any memory of what they had once been after a countless amount of years. They had become mainly exorcists, relying on the power of God to destroy the demons that came for the innocent souls.

These demons had long since plagued Cain’s world, and it was believed that they came from beyond the Ring of Sacrifice. The land past the Ring was known as the realm of the demons and became the place they sent all evil beings whom were banished from the monastery to. Including Cain himself.

What Cain found when he stepped through the Ring, however, went against everything he had been taught to believe. He came to discover that there were not demons, but other worlds apart from his own. They too had Rings of no return, and every time he stepped through them, he stepped into a different world.

Yet to his horror, when he tried to go back, it only sent him to yet another world. There was no way to go back the way he came. He soon realized that travelling through the Rings was more like being swept through a strong current between the broken shards of a mirror. He never knew what piece he was going to be washed up on next.

Some worlds are completely different than others. They harbor different kinds of life forms, and living conditions. The size of the world is different, and the economies and nature of the people that live in them vary. Even the realms of physics seem to differ. Yet some worlds seem exactly the same as others. It might simply be the type of land is the same, or the era in which the world is stuck in, and in some rare and mysterious cases, the world is an exact copy of another, giving a traveler the horrid, non-stop feeling of déjà vu.

However, the one thing that seems to stay the same for almost every world is that they are all afraid of travelling beyond that ring of no return. Since anyone who has left has never been able to tell what was beyond it, every world has it’s own theory as to why the people disappear. They all opt to stay safe inside their piece of the broken world, trapped for an immeasurable amount of time.

There have been some who decided to travel as Cain does. They are very scarce. Due to the extreme differences in the nature of the worlds, many travelers die due to famine, wars they stumble upon, diseases only they as outsiders contract, or they simply meet their end because the world they arrive at is too cold, hot, has no air, or any other unsavory circumstance.

Yet through Cain’s travels, he’s found pieces of things from one world that connect to others. Though things seem very different, he’s come to discover that this is in fact all one world, and not many different ones as it seems; He’s discovered that the world is in fact broken into pieces. It leaves the burning question as to how the world came to be like this, and why? What could be the purpose or meaning behind it? There are an endless amount of theories and beliefs in every world, and no way to tell what the true reason is.

The world, however, is still turning. And Cain, with Wen and Lyle Cecil, still intend to live the one life they’ve been given.

I never know what to say.

I think it's because I never understand. >C

 

I feel like I'm so trapped in my own world that I can't see anything outside my head.

 

I wonder what I can do to fix me.

I hate this.

Man, I never have anything to say.

Okay, okay, let me at least try.

 

How about... um...

Making [read: good] characters isn't as easy as it looks.

Mm.

Socializing isn't as easy, either.
