Prologue:
The "Chosen Hero," they kept calling her. Since she was a child she would hear those words on the lips of everyone around her. They would stare: some in admiration, some in awe, some in fear. They would watch her every move, listen to her every word, and murmur about her every choice.
She is the one who would save them all from the demons that plague humanity. The prophecy foretold as much.
So much faith was placed in her training as a child. She received the best lessons in hand-to-hand combat, weaponry, and the art of magic. She was taught to master it, to excel in battle, and so she became a knight unmatched. She was taught the world as well. She learned about different places, their customs, their strengths and their weaknesses. She was taught to understand it, to make the most of any situation given to her. She became strong and intelligent by default. By the age of fifteen, she was the perfect warrior. Everyone knew that she would be able protect all of humanity.
It's just too bad that she had already sided with the Demon Lord.
In one evening, she disappeared from the kingdom that had raised her. She ran to the Shadowed Mountains, where she swore herself to the darkness that threatened to consume humanity's world. Her devotion was tested, but it was not something she could not handle. She was ordered to betray humanity, to take over towns and cities in the name of the Demon Lord. She easily pleased her new master. In return, he gave her everything she ever dreamed of. He gave her complete and total Darkness.
And, just like that, Nakahara Sunako, went from the Chosen Hero to the Dark Princess.
