In the beginning, there was Heaven and Hell. Two paths, both separate and intertwined, preserved the balance.
Before, one chose either Sublime or Diabolic, and stayed on that path. However, as the days passed, the two paths became worn, and those who traveled on them grew tired and troubled.
Thus began the great “Shift of Alignment”.
In the texts of the ancient Immortals and Demons was the tale of Transcendents, they who strode on both paths. This knowledge changed the course of history forever. Now, students on the paths, whether advocates of heaven or agents of hell, have the chance to begin anew.
