Chaos Requiem: Cursed Five & The 6th Variable
”The world no longer needs heroes. It needs a monster to slaughter other monsters.”
For three generations, the Five Pillars—chosen guardians of the sacred path—carried out their duties to perfection. But perfection is a fragile lie. The 4th Generation of Pillars vanished in a blood-soaked tragedy, leaving behind nothing but unanswered questions and a fractured seal. Now, the Fiend God Ibris stirs once more, and the Sorcerers have emerged from the shadows to spread a Contamination that rots the very soul of nature.
As the chaos reaches its zenith, an ancient prophecy awakens. The Five Pillars are called once again. But this time, nature did not choose heroes. Instead, it summoned five outcasts: rebels, butchers, assassins, thieves, and blasphemers. Five souls discarded by society: The Cursed Five. They are the world’s final, desperate gamble.
Yet, fate has one more trick up its sleeve.
Enter Rhea Saschie, the "Red Death." A witch hunter who sneers at prophecies, mocks the sacred, and wields a hoard of "dirty tricks" that defy every law of the Resonants. He is the 6th Variable—a glitch in the script of destiny, or perhaps, the only one truly meant to end it?
Amidst a symphony of death, Rhea must carve a path through blood and shadow. He stands trapped between an empire that seeks to chain him, a burning thirst for vengeance against those who stole his homeland, and a Fiend God who hungers for his life.
Rhea lives by a single creed: ”Do what you believe is right, and think twice about what you believe is wrong.”
