The Last Eight

"Devils aren't born. They're made."

*****

My name is Igarashi Kaze, and I am nothing more than a high-schooler simply wishing to escape from reality.

How many of you have done the same before? Wanting to go to a new world, hoping to live in a new reality, dreaming to be able to start anew.

The world is a tough place — sometimes, such impossible wishes are necessary in order to retain our sanity. Sometimes, although they will never be answered, irrational wishes such as these could act like a distant goal to work towards, keeping us alive and pumping.

But my wish — was answered. And perhaps… for better or worse, I may have gotten myself into a little more than I had originally hoped.

It wasn't just a matter about my return to Earth anymore.

It was now a game that concerned all of reality and its inhabitants.

This, is Ascension: Online. One reality plane amongst many in the endless sea of space and time.

Life and death. Creation and destruction. Emotion and sin.
