In the vast, unending space of the universe stood a single planet with a powerful history, Trisusreum, which was ruled by one queen and her large family. Eons ago, there were Gods known as the Rocktronicas who created this world with their overwhelming power, originally it was only meant to house inhuman creatures, but as the elders passed and turned into living statues, a rite of passage was signed, allowing humans to access this realm.
It was in 2017 that both human and inhuman creatures lived in a somewhat peaceful environment under Queen Zovera Rocktronica. However, no one expected just what the queen had planned for her people.

"Ah, I have so much to do!"
In a large, two-story library within the Rocktronica castle, as the sun rose out the window, a woman with long purple and blonde hair, and a matching regal outfit, was seen pacing back and forth, from bookshelf to bookshelf in search of the texts she needed to master before the day truly began. "So much to do, so much to do!" She said hurriedly as she took another book from the shelf she was near, flitting through the pages to find the passage she needed to memorize.
"I Arcadia Velis, command thee, break thyn dimensional walls, creating a passage from this realm to another..." Arcadia, as she was known, recided as she waved her hand in an elegant and almost magical manner. "Hmmm..." She stroked her chin gently as she thought over her words. "Maybe a little more of a commanding tone would make the spell more powerful..." With gusto, the tall elf resumed her back and forth stroll along the wooden floors.
"I really need to get this right, if the portal is even slightly weaker than it should be, then it'll fail, and I'll become a laughing stock!" She sighed with the stress of the task, lifting her head as she pinched the bridge of her nose with furrowed brows. She felt a stiff headache forming behind her eyelids, a sign she had spent too long with her nose in the books. "Ugh, I need a break."
Unable to continue, she slumped down onto her couch with the book in hand. "God, I hope nothing dangerous comes out of it..." A shudder of fear passed down her spine at the thought of a demon, much like the ones she faced during the Annual War, coming through the vortex. With a shake of her head, Arcadia closed her eyes and allowed her body to relax on the makeshift bed, slowly letting herself to drift deeper and deeper into slumber.
Eventually, she book fell from her hands and she too followed it, disappearing into the realm of her dreams.
"...y...hey... HEY ARCADIA!"
The poor woman let out a sharp scream as her eyes snapped open with shock. Duke Nukem, Zovera's cousin, was standing far too close to her, his eyes hidden behind a pair of sunglasses, but the sneer prominent on his features. "Get up, y'lazy bitch! Zovera's been waitin' for ya for ten minutes!"
"Fuck off Duke!" She sneered back, blinking away the last of her slumber as she sat up and rubbed her tired eyes. "Nng...What do you mean Zovera's been waiting-" Suddenly the realization of what day it was hit her in the face like a tonne of bricks. "Oh crap!"
Duke nodded and left while the poor bookworm scrambled out of bed, not even bothering to change out of her violet, lilac and gold corset and skirt combo as she picked up her magic books and dashed from the room towards the exit. "Crap, crap, crap, crap! Oh, Zovera is going to kill me!" She thought as she gritted her teeth and pushed her legs to move faster. "If I keep up this pace, I'll be out of the town and at the forest opening in less than ten minutes! Aaagh, why did I choose today to sleep in?!"
As she thought, it took her merely ten minutes to reach the edge of the town outskirts, jogging exhaustedly out of the safety of the castle walls, she saw Zovera, Duke, Doom and the many other soldiers who waited for her arrival.
"S-sorry I'm late!" She called out with a rasp as she slowed to a stop at her Necronic ruler's side, placing her hands on her knees and all but folding in half with her head low as she fought to catch her breath.
Zovera Rocktronica, a towering monster of a woman, tall, slender and wearing very little in terms of armor, glanced down at her less impressive Mage. "You'll be punished later..." She said seriously, looking ahead at the opening they planned to use to their advantage. "Now just hurry up and begin the summons..."
"Y-yes, My Queen!" Arcadia wasted no time in drawing out a series of circular patterns which she needed to begin the event. By the time she finished, it looked almost like a symbol used by devil worshipers to summon Satan. "I, Arcadia Velis, command thee..." She walked slowly around the circle, moving her arms in graceful, slow motions as strange wisps of red and black energy surrounded her and the summoning grounds below her feet. "Break thyn dimensional walls..." A small hole ripped into the fabric of reality, slowly growing in size until it looked like nothing more than a swirling red and black vortex. "Creating a passage from this realm to another!"
Arcadia's eyes quickly snapped open with a confident air surrounding her. "Awaken, thyn portal!" With a snap of her fingers, the vortex caused strong tremors to erupt beneath their feet, swirling faster and faster as the sounds of screaming and laughter were heard from the other side.
Suddenly creatures unknown to the queen's subjects began to shadow dash and rush into their realm. At the sight, the Mage put her precautions into place, snapping both her fingers which in turn caused a translucent purple force field to surround her, protecting her from the dangerous individuals which rushed through the vortex at her queen's orders.
Zovera raised her hand and swiped it down, giving the signal for her soldiers to rush in and capture the creatures who made their way into the world. Some of the men even ran into the vortex itself, dragging the more reluctant beings out with force.
Among them was a man with long, black hair and a black mask covering his mouth. He struggled with obvious disdain against Duke's hold as his eyes scanned the area to find the source of the sudden attack upon him and his friends. His eyes locked with Arcadia's then, mismatched green and blue stared into lilac for just a moment before Duke slammed his elbow into the back of the man's head, knocking him out without mercy.
The somewhat cautious bookworm watched with a fleeting gaze as the other creatures were taken away either unconscious or not, and in that moment she felt nothing but a sinking sense of discomfort which settled deep within her gut.
What had she just gotten herself into?
