—WSA 2025 ENTRY—

Seiya was born into a family of legends. A lineage of power. A dynasty of paragons.

He was none of these things.

Weak. Unwanted. A disgrace.

But destiny had no interest in their expectations. It had plans of its own.

Dragged into a hell beyond reason, Seiya suffered—not for days, not for years, but for what felt like eternity. Torture became his only companion. Pain, his only teacher. And in that suffering, something inside him woke up.

Not an awakening like the others. Not a gift. Not a blessing.

A truth. A force that didn’t belong to this world, or any other.

Now, he returns. Not to prove himself. Not to earn his place.

But to burn everything down.

Armed with the Staff of Chaos and the Sword of Severance, Seiya walks a path carved from vengeance and revelation. The world that cast him aside will either bow before him…

Or become ash beneath his feet.

Rise of the Rejected Deity from Chaos

While Hayne remained numb and rooted from fear, Seiya watched him, hearing his hammering heartbeat grate against his ears.

He wondered if his revelation was one enough to cause a reaction like this, because he couldn't quite comprehend why Hayne was in such a condition—looking so pale and terrified.

Seiya waited, hoping Hayne would regain himself any moment so they could leave but Hayne made no sign of recovering from whatever turmoil got him like that, so Seiya who didn't quite like the idea of remaining there doing nothing, spoke up instead.

"Can we get going now?" His voice cut through the tension and silence in the room, jolting Hayne back and drawing his attention.

Staring with wide-eyed shock at him for a moment, Hayne nodded repeatedly. "Y-yeah," he whispered.

Seiya turned and Hayne followed, leaving the house.

"Where are we headed next?" Seiya asked, jolting Hayne who had once again drifted into thoughts.
