“Trick, my most pri—zed gift.” A woman shakily muttered as she tried to evade the grim hands of death just long enough to bid her farewells.

“You’re kind, just like your father even. But in all your kindness as your father did, please do not —”

The conversation blurred into a cloud of obscurity as Trick found himself rescued from the innards of a monster by a strange Machiavellian man, a trickster of sorts.

He is soon made to realize that the life his newfound master leads him into is far from ordinary.

For centuries humanity has been plagued with the curse from the void, where void beasts; dreadful man eating monsters have tried to sink humanity deeper and deeper into absolute desolation.

However this curse is battled by special kinds of humans known as artifact hunters, Wielders of relics that sometimes seem to possess a celestial origin and great power.

One of these celestial artifacts lies in the hands of his master and after being passed down to Trick, he becomes the 10th wielder of the mystical “Trickster’s Hat.”

He must now use this new found power to try to do what humanity has failed at for thousands of years, attempt to end the curse of the void.

Yet in doing so his life is troubled by a series of conflicts as he embraces the harsh reality, that he too might have vestiges of the dark bloodline of the void. 

“Trick, you have your own curse to break.”

The Trickster’s Hat

"Really are pitiful creatures."

Nine large pillars of scarlet flames blazed in an otherworldly manner around a bizarre rune etched into the ground with a strange red substance.

A myriad of intricately drawn markings overlapped and crossed each other meticulously, until a mystifying figure was birthed.

A polygon having nine sides was now drawn onto an altar before Oneiros, the uncanny nonagon being completely sketched into the altar with an unsettlingly large volume of human blood.

"They are weak."

Oneiros mumbled softly, drawing the last of his occultic runes over the slightly elevated altar until the nonagon was fully formed, before his very eyes.
