Disclaimer: I don't own a single thing in this story. 'Cept maybe the main bad guy, and even he's inspired by something else (no spoilers for you).
Hokay, it's been a good long while since I've tried my hand at this, so I'm honestly asking for good feedback- occasional mindless stuff is expected, but I'm looking to improve a bit here. So...Heaven or Hell. Let's rock! (Love Guilty Gear, listening to music of it right now. What can I say?)

Legend of the Eight Lights
Good, and evil. Since the dawn of time itself, the two forces have been at war. However, by and large, the forces of Good have triumphed over those of evil. However, these forces are but minor; in the grand scheme of things, there is a larger evil. One with the power and desire to eradicate any and all living, constant things. Why? We do not know. But that does not make the threat any less real. It is a force of pure chaos and malevolence, a monster of absolute destruction. A being...of entropy.
Ah, but why has this force not take root and eliminated us, then? The answer is simple. Eight beings from all corners of the universe, entitled with the power to null and quiet the beast, at least temporarily. Even so, they are said to have been shining like stars from the force of their powerful struggle. Unfortunately, the previous Eight have died and gone, leaving their names to none but history. And the beast, long asleep, now slowly stirs...
Thusly, the universe needs a new set of heroes to attempt to quell this force. The universe needs the Eight Lights once more...
----------------------
That'll do it for this short prolouge. I'm typing up the actual first chapter right now, so it won't be long. Try to guess the Eight. I guarantee you can't. But I'll give you a hint. Some are common in this section, others haven't even been seen. So don't bug out trying to figure out all of them, eheheh... (Oh, and in case you're wondering, the actual chapters are longer than this- this is merely a short intro to the state of affairs so you all won't be lost. Give 'em a looksee- I promise they'll be pretty good.)
Read and Review, please!
