The Saviour.

A title that was given to the person who prevented the destruction of their world.
Revered across countless nations, they received veneration and admiration from the masses.

They were the personification of what all heroes strived to be.

Their ultimate aim.

Yet, a Saviour must experience more pain than most. Endure more suffering, agony, and despair than most. In addition to running the risk of sacrificing it all for the greater good.

In Crelerath, a world bathed in the fires of War against the repulsive Demons, an alarming prophecy was made, describing the descent of a Calamity soon fated to arrive. At the same time as the ominous declaration, the inhabitants of the world found to their horror that their enemies had become more rampant, the intensity of the assault having escalated to dire levels.

Nico, a young boy, oblivious of the dire state of his world and the tense atmosphere between the major races, dreamt of becoming a mighty warrior. However, his ambitions were in jeopardy due to his thin and scrawny build – a result of the strange birthmark on his temple.

With his world having come crashing down after the death of his best friend, Nico swore to himself never to be put in a position where he couldn’t protect those he loved. He would never lose someone again due to his own cowardice.

His method to ensure that was the Awakening Ceremony.

A ceremony aimed at allowing humans to awaken and form their mana core.

Moreover, the night before his first day in a Training Camp designed to prepare them for the ceremony, Nico had a nightmare of a group of tremendously powerful beings clashing together. Mighty beings that he would later connect to the Transcendent Overlords that ruled all creation.

Why did he of all people receive that vision? What did it mean?

Worse still, during his first lesson Nico was forced to delve deep and inspect himself and what he found… left him shocked.

His soul desired freedom. Yet not just any type. He desired…

Freedom from this world.

Why? Didn’t he have a loving family and everything he could ever ask for? Were these feelings even entirely his own?

As Nico climbs the ladder of power, join his journey as he uncovers ancient secrets long lost to time, learns more about his strange birthmark, and tries to keep those he loved safe in a dying world, yet at the same time seek to escape the world that birthed him, unaware of the cruel trick fate had in store for him.

Thus the fate of the torn saviour was born.
