...Balance

[Shelly]

everything has always been even.

Ever since the earth began, everything has had an even counterpart. The Living and the Dead, the Light and the Dark. Heaven and Hell. The scale has never tipped in the other's favor. No crooked lines, no unequal weights. the priests have made sure of that. A secret society, stretching from the dawn of time, has been devoted to maintaining these scales, keeping them in balance.

But everything has changed.

The scales have tipped severely, and the situation has gotten out of hand. For centuries, everything has been the same. but due to a small miscalculation, this state balance has been threatened. Hell has overpowered Heaven, and the Dead are beginning to overpower the Living. The people of Light and Dark have begun to appear, and nothing is as it once was. The Devil's Messengers and the Angels have begun to use the Living Realm as their battleground, and the Dead have risen form their graves, cold, unfeeling, and unhealing. The Shadows and the Prisms, the inhabitants of the realms of Light and Dark have ripped open the small tears in their dimension, and are now pouring from all sides. Chaos has ensued in this world, and the Scale Society has been broken due to it.

There are the Angels, the ones sent from Heaven to combat the evil. There are the Devil's Messengers, sent from the depths of the Underworld to claim the realm of the Living as their own. There are the Prisms, the inhabitants of the realm of Light. They are calm, ethereal beings, simply devoted to the Angels and Heaven. There are the Shadows, the inhabitants of the realm of Dark. They are beings that long for companionship, but easily angered. There are the Priests, the scholars of religion, and the ones hastily trying to patch this tattered world back together. There are the Dead, the cold, unfeeling shells that do not heal, do not sleep, do not breathe. And there are the Living, the ones of whom are most affected by this war.

in the balance of power, where do you stand?
