Books!
So many wonderful books spilled from thousands upon thousands of shelves. Enormous walls rising further than the eye could see offered their knowledge for a fleeting figure that rushed through countless ever-changing stairwells and shuffling floors in search of their one perfect book.
Trailing shortly behind was a timid girl who clutched onto a comedically large book by her chest. She followed Jury along, her mouth uttering soundless words as they were engulfed in a mesmeri...

A bright light descended from the darkening skies. The series of supernovas that painted the skies were mesmerizing. They shed light in a world that knew nothing but darkness.
The dozens of painters ahead and the innocent lives gazed up into the air in fascination. For just a moment, their minds were taken off the cruelty of it all.
Tears welled in the corners of her eyes. Of all the pain she needed to endure, this feeling of relinquishment somehow managed to strike her the hardes...

A bright light suddenly enveloped the children as an invisible explosion erupted. It was a nonlethal explosion, but it felt as though she was caught in the middle of an artificial supernova as her eyesight was instantly turned white for as long as a minute.
Frost’s entire mind was focused on dealing with the pain of her bouncing heart. Her Touch of Golds crushed it into a fine paste against the loose brickwork as another dozen wrapped her chest like bandages, hoping to keep her regene...

Frost’s name was called more times than she could count.
She threw her body in ever conceivable direction, all the while the Hired Arm sent a violent volley of bullets into the direction of the encroaching Aspirations.
Behind the small wall of hearts in the faraway distance were the musicians. They ran in tow with countless innocent lives, creating living paintings such as horses and wolves that galloped across the landscape.
She knelt by Res and Jury’s side, checking fo...

Darkness clouded her vision. No matter how hard she tried to move in her dark ocean she would only be met with a wave of cold dullness. It felt like she wore nothing. The tickling of her Coat of Prejudice and the constant tightness of her leggings were strangely absent.
… Nav…? Where am I?
Nav did not answer.
Nav? Hello? Nav…? Are you there? Jury? Anyone?
She was completely alone in this strange voyage in the dark. Minutes passed for what felt l...

Nothing could stop them now. A kilometer climb was all that separated them from the brimming star. Leitmotif’s woes fell on deaf ears as Frost propelled everyone across the final stretch.

< [Beaten Desires] >
< [Gushing!] >
The Dark clouds, the dreaded shockwaves, and the heart-manipulating attack only bolstered Frost’s drive. Invo...

“So you’re aware of how they’re made!?” Frost charged at him, sending her Touch of Golds to wrap her six-armed nemesis.
He simply stood there nonchalantly. Almost mockingly, knowing that no matter what they did he would remain unharmed.
No matter how hard she squeezed or strangled his body it did not break. Not even his fingers could be moved.
Such was the unfairness of the Invulnerability Condition.
“I wonder. But you would know, Amalgam! ...

It became clear that these giant clumps were the source of the Heart of Ours 25,000 ATT.
They bombarded the city like fleshy meteors, bursting through the black haze of Shattered Dreams that enshrouded everything including the light.
The rays of light only shone whenever the meteors broke through, or whenever Res attempted to clear them out using her electric beams. The upper half of the spire remained hidden from plain sight.
Craters of red mist remained. Pieces of the wall...

Stella was among these people who desperately wished to be free from this hell. It wasn’t until Frost arrived that she understood the concept of happiness. She always believed it to be something she could achieve so long as she obeyed the organ stealers.
That she’d truly be happy if she became a star.
What did it mean to be a star? What was a star? She knew that it was a light. Maybe a person or an object that people looked up to for guidance, like Leitmotif. She was told by t...

Just as the City of Vocals saw its own battles, so did the Triple Paw Complex. The kilometers that stretched along the stranded wastes between both settlements saw warfare wage.
Armaments were brandished over the heads of willing Adventurers and the bravest of denizens who took up their arms to fight for their right to live a life free of torment. Weaponry was sparse within their ruined homes, and the massive scimitars used by the Bloody Festival were too large for many to use.
Bu...

The emotions in her heart exploded in spectacular fashion. Her Touch of Golds licked the air further than ever before; her total body span now exceeding 100 meters from one end to the other.
They slithered through the narrow passages, latched onto walls and mounds, and flicked chaotically in tune with her burning heart. And yet the destruction she caused was minimal. Horrified screams naturally engulfed the city at the mere sight of the behemoth; but those that were touched by the golde...

The monsters responsible for the Painter’s torment were equipped with these whip-like weapons above their carapace helmets, and they stroked the air in their direction when they sensed their presence. Their size was double that of the Suppressors, and they had a total of 6 muscular arms capable of crushing stone barehandedly.
