Full Summary: After Chaos is defeated, the Dragon Shinryu declares 'The War of Wars': Cosmos and Chaos's warriors team up with warriors representing them and their assists to different worlds and fight their enemies to the death! (Dissidia X Anime/Game Misc X - overs/ Web Shows crossovers). Contains: gory violence, lots of swearing, chaotic stupidity, etc.
[23/9 A/N: After re-reading the initial version of Tainted Repentance while writing the AO3 version, I decided to update the version by changing/ removing/ replacing most of the ones I wrote with new, original characters for upcoming animations and those who appeared in my other stories in both FF. net and AO3, as well as rewriting grammatical errors. Further notes regarding the changes and contexts will be below each chapter]
So warning; the majority of characters are NOT original but parodies of themselves with a different appearance and/or personality (e.g. a serious, no-nonsense main villain from the canon into a humane/ good version of himself/ herself, and vice versa) by my not so serious imagination...like everyone else who writes creative stories for their liking.
Also, the story's old reviews before this rewrite were from the initial version so please don't be confused or rude.
So hope you enjoy this ridiculous Dissidia Final Fantasy X Multifandom X RedKHII crossover story.
CHAPTER'S REWRITE DATE: 29/3/2023
PART 1: THE WAR OF WARS
War exists in multiple forms, including those in power
such powers even those of gods to bear for war
Cosmos the goddess of Harmony
and Chaos the god of discord
summon warriors of distant worlds to fight in savage cycles of battle.
However, on the brink of ending the war in Cosmos's favour,
the dragon God Shinryu does not accept Chaos's defeat
and brings in a new cycle
That will be as dangerous and strange as the previous wars….
Amid nowhere where the sky is dark red and orange with clouds and everywhere besides a tall and high circular platform is nothing but giant swords and lava erupting heavily from the ground, called the Edge of Madness; ten warriors, nine men, and a young woman watch as the god of discord himself; Chaos writhes in pain while floating in mid-air from his defeat by the hands and efforts of the Warriors of Cosmos, ever since they have fought all of their enemies from their worlds and the manikins in the everlasting war that has been repeating in war cycles.
But as soon as the ten watch Chaos is slowly consumed by the flames from the lava until the demonic god has been incinerated from the molten lava and ashes, finally, disappear into nothing...
A roar of a beast or a dragon instantly fills the air when the ten warriors quickly look around to see the Edge of Madness beginning to flow around the massive area by dark mists of darkness which catch their shock and confusion, just as the sudden appearance of a gigantic, golden dragon glowing with light emerging from underneath the platform or out of nowhere below to fly around the platform in a rapid speed, alongside some more but smaller and longer versions of the golden dragon itself like a tornado.
The startled warriors shift their heads from left to right with their shock, suspicion, and confusion increasing on their faces of what is happening as they can hear what appears to be a deep baritone of an unfamiliar voice hissing in fury through their ears and minds.
"No! Damned warriors of harmony, this shall not be over! In the name of the War of the Gods, I, Shinryu, invoke a new war from another world outside any living realm…the war known as the War of Wars! For the true victor of the new war between harmony and discord!"
'What!?' The warriors mentally gasped in horror at the declaration but just as either one of the ten warriors was about to object to the voice, possibly belonging to the dragon that was trapping them in the strong vortex of wind, everyone was quick to notice they are also covered with a bright white light under their feet, yet in a slow pace to grow their confusion more when one by one, a warrior disappears in the light before the other; until all ten fighters have vanished from view.
The glowing golden dragon stops its flight to first glance at the now empty throne and platform of the now disappearing Edge of Madness until it instantly throws its head back and unleashes another but louder roar, while its body glows brighter with golden yellow light just like its body and it's tiny counterparts, to the point the light could blind anyone or a large number of people if they remain in the place, to quickly vanish in a flash alongside the decreasing volume of its roar, leaving the now deserted Edge of Madness to be consumed by the darkness…
'In the name of the War of the Gods, I, Shinryu, invoke a new war from another world outside any living realm…the war known as the War of Wars! For the true victor of the war between harmony and discord!"
Remembering the words and furious tone in the voice of the dragon before disappearing from the Edge of Madness after everyone's efforts to defeat Chaos and his warriors of the ten's enemies, and end the war in Cosmos's favour, the Warrior of Light is the first to get his conscious back to his formerly unresponsive mind when he groggily flickers his eyes and let out a groan as he slowly collects himself to find himself sleeping on the ground with his body, arms with the familiar feeling of his Crystal, and legs planted.
Sluggishly raising himself on his hands and knees before his feet, his Crystal safely held in his hand, The Warrior of Light slowly glanced around to see that he was not the only one awake from seeing his other nine comrades either on their knees or already standing on the ground of where in the world the ten are, with everyone's faces showing such surprise and confusion as they glance at the Crystal on their hands and the Warrior of Light can understand why as he is also as puzzled as the others are for what happened.
'Why? We successfully fought Chaos and our enemies to win the war for Cosmos…but why would that dragon want us to fight in another war? Does this mean our enemies shall be resurrected as well?' The Warrior of Light mentally questioned with his thoughts bearing sadness and little anger for why such a situation had now started although he did not have anything to think further when he heard Squall Leonhart's voice asking the others with curiosity in his stoically frustrated voice. "Hey. Why were we sleeping in some forest?"
Hearing the question, the Warrior and the others quickly glance around the area to finally see where the ten are currently located, curiosity sparked through everyone's minds of the place; a large and wide clearing of a forest surrounded by the sight of giant trees, taller than any tree everyone would have ever seen in their worlds, littering around the atmosphere with the air and the ground shrouded with healthy green leaves and grasses, and the sky is a warm colour of dark blue and orange for dawn approaching through the purplish – like clouds, and far from their location is the sight of an enormous, colossal building towering over all of the trees of the entire forest with a questionable amount of floors and strange type of glass doors on each floor as windows, and the colour scheme of red, brown, and black with all the roofs of the entire building green.
"W - Wherever we are, what we should be thinking about is why would that giant dragon say about another war and drag us in it! I thought we were supposed to return to our worlds!" Onion Knight mentioned with the sadness in his voice transitioned into anger for the 'dragon' that seemingly brought the ten to this unfamiliar place and declared another war, his words brought the only female warrior of the group Terra Branford to agree with a nod of her head and speak her worry of the matter to the men, softly clutching her Crystal in her hands. "The dragon…could this Shinryu disagree that Chaos should have to be defeated?"
"But why would it want that? If we failed to fight Chaos, he and the other enemies would have destroyed everything from our worlds and even ourselves and every single one of others!" Tidus objected in sorrow and anger as everyone turned their heads to face Cloud Strife when the latter was glancing up at the sky and spoke out what he thought in mind of the matter, a stoic scowl on his face as usual as Squall and the Warrior of Light for everyone to not be surprised. "More importantly, what does it mean 'The War of Wars'? As well as another world 'from any living realm'?"
That thought in mind brought everyone to think of those words for Firion to slowly droop his head down for a bit before he muttered out with a sigh and shrugged his shoulders for the confusion of this War of Wars just as everyone else is perplexed by it as well. "I believe we may not know. If only we could ask anyone or even Cosmos for some answers."
Unfortunately, it seems Firion and everyone in their group were not expecting to have their questions answered as soon as the former said it….
"Then, do you want the answers now instead of waiting for some goddamn person?" An instant voice of a man demanding with irritation made the group shudder in apprehension and hastily turn around to the source with their weapons materialized on their hands and replaced them to hide their Crystals in a flash of light only to realize that the ten were not alone when they instantly glare at the large group of people counted to be less than twenty, men with some are younger and only two girls and an older woman, surrounding them in the clearing when they appear out of nowhere.
Some of the men are standing while the others are sitting on either the tree branches of the smaller trees or the bushes, and one man is sitting on top of the coiled tail of the odd and winged creature everyone is familiar to be a lamia, being the first to attract the warriors' shock with some of their faces, mostly Firion and Terra are blushing madly in fear while Zidane flirtatiously smirk at the winged lamia.
Suddenly, in the blink of an eye, the Cosmos's warriors realised their chest and heart were glowing a bright colour, not the same colour as each other, before they watched in surprise at a line shooting through the glow and reaching towards the hearts of twelve of the members of the other group, leaving only the remaining three to watch with little puzzlement when seeing the glow of Warrior of Light, Firion, and Terra's hearts have two lines connecting to two different people instead of having just one like the others.
"Warriors of Cosmos. This may seem weird or quite a surprise, but we are your representatives for the War of Wars, which I can understand that you kids don't even know about that name." The owner of the voice from earlier, who is shown to be one of the few tallest people of the group present even to the Warriors of Light which collected their shock, spoke with a displeased or bored glower towards the Warriors of Light who slowly lowered their weapons down despite the curious and wary reactions on their faces, seeing the possible leader's heart is glowing a matching purple colour as Cecil Harvey's while the Warrior's own heart is glowing a bright blue colour and connecting it with the same colour of the hearts belonging to two men with one having brown hair and green hair in the other.
This unfamiliar leader of the new group has short and spiky or slicked-like bluish-purple hair to the back of his neck, pale blue eyes, and pale white skin yet his lower arms and hands underneath his sleeves are pitched black, a muscular, well-toned build and dressed in odd attire; a black, floor-length, silken black robe reached above his bare feet but seductively opened to reveal his legs and thigh-high black shorts, his black sleeves, made of crow feathers, hangs below his knees and hiding his lower arms and hands, and the entire robe is secured by a living python snake matching the same colour as his hair as his tail by wrapping itself around his waist holding his robes and around his body with its head and chin resting on his right shoulder. On each side of his skull and hair is the top half a black-coloured animal mask hanging without a string, a bull mask on the right side and a ram mask on the left side of his head.
"We were only told about it but never know why, as we just defeated Chaos for Cosmos's name. Can you please tell us what the War of Wars is, and why we must take part in it?" The Warrior of Light asked.
"Just to not waste any time, and good thing I was informed of it before we showed up; the dragon Shinryu is furious about Chaos's defeat that it wants another war cycle with ours; a war that will be as dangerous and different from your previous battles. But instead of crystals, all we need to do is to go through different worlds, and fight both your enemies and ours who are representing them." The man in black robes first gave a nod when he explained the situation to Cosmos's army, who seemed to be either amazed or concerned in worry of the new war, even when they noticed the man's dark or pale blue eyes narrowed with such murderous and callous expression when he continued, "We may have a lot of allies and enemies assisting both sides during the War of Wars, but it would be better and faster than ten of you bearing a burden of not saving comrades, and ending the War of Wars in a small group."
"…I may doubt what you said about bearing burdens, but if this is what Cosmos wanted, then we have no choice." After a minute of silence, as everyone could only think and process the information provided to them, Cloud was the first to finally break that sentence as he spoke and stoically accepted the information gathered for the warriors of Harmony, with a nod while his allies seem to accept this as well when Terra thought aloud with her face bearing a sad frown. "Cosmos has done a lot for us to help defeat Chaos…" before the Warrior of Light finished her statement with a soft nod. "So let us fight our enemies and end this war once and for all!"
"Hmph." Was all the taller man could say when everyone couldn't hear him mutter to himself when he lowered his head with a calm frown, 'Are all these brats so upbeat?' before he lifted his head to face Cosmos's warriors and questioned them without changing any expression. "So do you kids want to know your representatives' names, or not?"
Startled by the sudden change of time from the possibly impatient man with a sound escaping in some of their mouths in surprise, the first of Cosmos's warriors to introduce himself is Tidus who walks towards the person bearing the same sea blue glow of light on their chests; a young woman possibly sharing the same age as them or a bit older, with emerald green eyes and fair skin, boyishly short and wavy purple hair to her neck, and dressed in a green tank top, black shorts, and black sneakers. To Tidus's surprise but not caring to be kind, his representative has silver prosthetic arms and legs. "Names Tidus, Blitzball ace of Zanarkand!"
"Jules Ivy-Jinn! Nice to meet you!" Tidus's representative, Jules Ivy-Jinn, happily introduced and shook Tidus's hand as Zidane noticed a boy and the older woman of the group walking towards him, seeing both boys' hearts are a glowing bright green line linking each other, with a nervous smile on the new boy's face when he introduced himself with a nod even when noticing Zidane is staring his awe at the boy's older partner. "My name is Eric Asmodeus Zechs and, as I was an adult earlier before I was split and turned younger to fight my adult self, this is my wife Osérin Beelzebub Scatena. I was told you must be Zidane and I look forward to fighting in the war with you."
This Eric Asmodeus Zechs is a young and fair-skinned boy who looks a bit younger than Zidane but still dwarfing the Genome, confusing the tailed boy about Eric's slightly effeminate face that initially mistook him for a girl, has long blonde hair tied in a high ponytail with two bangs each parted from his face and two short fringes or tufts of his hair sticking on top of his head between the bangs, exotically green eyes that look like they can glow, and wears a simple baggy dark green shirt to his waist with the sleeves rolled past his elbows and a V-shaped collar, darker green or greyish-green pants, and grey sneakers.
His partner, which immediately shocks Zidane for their revealed relationship and his representative is physically child-formed, is beautiful, tall and voluptuous with glowing red eyes and black sclera, long and wavy glowing bright blue hair to her feet bearing large strands draping at the right side of her face and past her chest, nearly hiding her right eye, dark brown skin and wears a wide, ankle-length dark blue robe with long sleeves that hide her entire arms and hands, an open chest and leg area revealing her indigo, sleeveless turtleneck sweater and silken black dress skirt with the slits on both sides showing her legs, and black high heels.
As much as he wants to learn more about Eric being an adult and his revealed wife, Zidane calmed down to chuckle from his grin and gave his representative a thumbs up in his hand, showing his Crystal in hand. "Heck yeah! I can tell you must be good with the ladies."
"Oh, he is…but it always ends up with Eric being an unfortunate target of people wanting him as a doll. No matter if he's a kid or a man; including his foster dad." Eric's partner, Rin, nodded in agreement with a seductive smirk and softly stroked her right-sleeved hand on Eric's head and blonde hair, prompting him to close his eyes with a soft muffled noise from the contact. Zidane could either muse on Rin's words regarding people wanting Eric or pout his jealousy of his representative having a sexy wife, that he almost didn't notice Rin nodding at Cecil's representative when mentioning Eric's foster father.
"The name's Seighart! Killer Mad Hatter of Underland!" A tall man with messier brown hair under his large and greyish–blue top hat that bears a rose and two cards sticking at one side of the hat, fair or pale skin, greyish–blue eyes, and his attire is an elegant–looking suit that matches the same colour as his eyes with matching pants, black boots, and fingerless gloves, confidently presented himself by flailing a pair of silver guns he was holding with a crazy yet calm grin on his face, as his heart glows a bright silver line of light which is linked to Squall Leonheart's chest. But instead of greeting his representative, the only thing Squall could do was groan inside his mind about meeting his representative.
'Why do I get the feeling I'm having a crazy man representing me?'
"Evan Fong but call me Vanoss!" A young man possibly in his twenties with short black hair and dressed in a red hoodie with a white undershirt, blue jeans, and red and white sneakers walked towards Cloud to catch his attention and stopped in front of the latter to lift a hand when seeing both his and Cloud's hearts are bearing a bright bluish-green glow, a small grin on his face as Cloud could only stare at his representative with a tint of curiosity in his stoic face for a few seconds before he slowly takes his hand for a shake. "I'm Cloud."
"Hi. I'm Dipper, and this is my twin sister Mabel. We're not actually from Purvana, but it's nice to meet you and hope we'll work together to go back home." The youngest boy with brown hair under a blue and white cap and dressed in a short-sleeved red shirt under a dark blue jacket, grey shorts, and black and white sneakers with white socks introduced himself with a nervous smile while lifting his left hand to show his twin sister with long hair and dressed in a pinkish-red sweater with a design of a shooting star with a rainbow, short skirt and black flat shoes beside him, who only greet the other woman with a smile and a wave of a hand, as their chests bear a bright pink glow with Terra's.
Although concerned about seeing her representatives' young age and Zidane's counterpart in a dangerous war, Terra quickly gave her two representatives a small but kind smile when introducing herself. "Nice to meet you two, my name is Terra."
"Lukale Aizen. This here is my Assist and best friend Kanou and his Servant Ashiya Douman, also considered as part of my best friends. Nice to meet you, Bartz." The tall man, not as tall as Cecil and Firion's representatives but towers over the ten warriors, introduced with a calm smile to the surprised Bartz looking at him with awe.
Lukale's extremely long chocolate brown hair was tied in a massive braid that even draped past his feet to nearly touch the ground with countless white lilies flowers, some of his spiky-like bangs slightly framed to the left side of his face, matching brown eyes, slightly peach or pale skin, matching chocolate brown eyes, and wears a long-sleeved and wide, violet purple and soft fabric jacket to his knees with a V-shaped collar black linings and matching ankle-length, flowing or baggy pants with a black silken sash around his waist, black gloves and boots that looks like socks and sandals mixed, black strips of cloth around his forehead, and a white bandana around his neck and chest although Bartz can see a black choker around Lukale's neck.
Beside him are two men who do not have a representative and are similar in height to Lukale, with the one called Kanou having a stern sneer on his face like Firion and Cecil's representative with dark peach skin, a skinny yet well-toned body with long legs, short spiky – like darker brunette hair, and dressed in a simple yet untidy dark blue businessman shirt that leaves the first few top buttons unbuttoned, black pants and formal shoes. The back of his right hand bears a red mark that looks strangely like a single eye.
As for Ashiya Douman, he seems both polite and terrifying by his appearance and the menacingly calm smile on his handsome, slightly pale face; muscled than Kanou with his knee-length hair contrasting each other; the right side of his hair being white and bears whirl-like curls while the left is black and also wavy but with countless swirls-like strands, multiple silver bells hang on some of the strands, faint green makeup on his eyes and lips, eerily long green fingernails with a tint of black on his fingers, green pear-like earrings. He wears light pale green robes with wide sleeves that could hide his arm and hands with his right arm free from the sleeve to show his nearly bared body and a black shoulder pad-like fabric with a red cloth on his chest, a baggy, white and red striped sleeve, and faded green wrappings around his wrist, a purple collar-like cloth around his neck with tiny golden orbs at the ends. A pair of black leather-like strips on his body peeking underneath the robe and a golden piece on his collarbone in an X with green linings, a red, black, and green patterned skirt with a black and golden lining strip suspending over his left shoulder while another hangs down and multiple golden orbs at the ends, and white shoes with red soles.
Seeing his and Lukale's hearts bear a bright baby blue light, Bartz expressed amazement like a young child would have when he thought aloud with excitement. "Wow! You look like we could be related! But it's nice to meet ya and your scary best friends, Lukale!"
Lukale closed his eyes with an awkward–like smile and a tiny sweat drop appeared on his head when he muttered a quiet 'Um…' while his friends Kanou and Ashiya Douman reacted for both being called scary with the former's eyes twitching once and the latter had his pure black eyes closed with that smile for a few seconds…before Bartz watched in horror of Lukale screaming in fear and quickly jumped on Ashiya's awaiting arms in a bridal pose with almost everyone watching in their horror of Kanou leaning forward and grinning sadistically at Lukale.
"Oi, Luka! Why the hell is your kid thinking me and Ashiya are scary right after we met?"
"I don't know! Why don't you ask him?! Ashiya, please don't let your Master kill me!" Lukale's fear shifted from arguing towards Kanou in anger before begging Ashiya, even as the latter spoke or sang in amusement, his voice strangely sounded a bit like the pseudo-leader of the new group. "Nnnnnh! I'd love to help you, Lukale…but your representative did call me and Master scary, and I'm offended."
"I think that's why you both are fucking scary, you psychopaths!" First watching Bartz's representative shouting in anger at his representative's Servant, Cecil shifts his attention towards the taller man in black robes when the latter walks towards him and calmly introduces himself. "Thanos Asmodeus. One of the Immortals and the Devil of Purvana and ruler of Hybrid Hell. I have an Assist but I need to find her first…."
Although the older man, and revealed Devil of this Purvana realm, does not seem to show any enthusiasm with that glued sneer on his face, it does not bother Cecil when the Dark Knight also wishes to make acquaintance with his older representative with a small warm smile hidden inside his helmet. "Cecil Harvey. It is an honour to meet you, Your Highness."
"I don't want to be rude by the fact you're a kid and your name is Onion Knight, so my name is Jared but you can call me Cynical." A young man with short brown hair, light skin and wears a green jumpsuit with short sleeves and the ends of the suit reach past his knees, has a white and black jacket with a hood over it, a pair of white and black fingerless gloves, a crown necklace and crown chain hanging around on his torso, and a pair of big shoes with the colour scheme of green, black, and white exclaim himself with a confident yet nervous – like smile when he and Onion Knight bear a bright greenish-red glow on their chests, although his words earn the young knight to give a faint sort of a pout while he thought to himself. 'And yet you are anyway…'
"Hiro Adonelle, not from Purvana but I'll make sure I'll help with the best I can. This is my Afearation, Melusine." The large man who has the winged lamia calmly or stoically presented himself and his winged lamia walked and slithered towards Firion, who froze in fear of the man representing him and was nearly startled by his deep voice.
Also sharing the same height as Lukale, Kanou, Ashiya, Seighart, and Rin, Hiro Adonelle has his knee-length bubblegum pink hair tied in a braid like Lukale but the hair drapes over their right shoulder, a muscled well-toned build, handsome although he does have a bit of femininity in his features, stern white eyes, wears a sleeveless black vest with Firion noticing a word SWAT written in white nearly hidden by his braid, a short-sleeved shirt underneath his vest and black baggy, tactical pants underneath his long, yellow cloth tucked inside his pants and flowing to one side of his legs, bearing a single design of a large purple hoop at the centre. His left hand holds a large black, fabric case that looks heavy, but Hiro has no trouble carrying it.
After seeing his heart sharing the same crimson red glow as Hiro's which the light ends on his muscled chest, which oddly looks like a female's chest possibly from his clothed body, Firion warily glanced at the winged lamia Hiro called it an Afearation and named it Melusine.
A giant fair-skinned lamia with matching pink hair and white eyes as Hiro's alongside the matching scaled pink tail and a pale belly, a pair of pale green dragon wings, and big and clawed, dark pink inhuman-like hands past the elbows, long and black stitch marks all over themselves in different directions, mostly the face which looks as if a man and woman's face is split in half, and around their arms and waist where the inhuman hands and tail starts. The right side of Melusine's face is male while the left side is female. Their hair has side bangs parted away from their conjoined faces and drapes past their shoulders with the remaining half tied in a bun leaving some strands sticking out as a pseudo-ponytail. The only pieces of clothing for both their slightly muscular body and large breasts are a pink cloth-like shirt draping past the chest area and a white apron around the front of their tail like a loincloth.
Nonetheless, Firion quickly calms down and greets Hiro back with a kind smile while offering a hand to shake with the larger man, for Hiro first glances at the hand with his sneer slowly softens before the latter accepts the handshake. "Firion, leader of the Wild Rose Rebellion. It is a pleasure to meet you, Hiro." Although seemingly pleased, Firion noticed Hiro's mouth twitch into a nervous smile while Melusine said nothing but tilted their head with an emotionless-like curious expression…
"I'm sorry if I'll disgust you and your friends…I'm both a man and a woman. And Melusine represents me in that sense." Hiro apologized with a chuckle from the sudden shock that flashed on not just Firion when he frantically looked at his representative up and down but still holding Hiro's hand, now starting to understand the revealed figure's slight femininity and his Afearation's complex appearance, but also his friends who look either astonished or amazed.
"Woah, Firion! Your representative is both a man and a woman? I don't know if I should be impressed or see you as lucky since I also thought Eric was the same." Zidane remarked in astonishment once Hiro hurriedly removed his hand from Firion despite the latter's hesitance, not meaning to be rude to his representative, before the weapon specialist turned towards his friend. "Zidane!?"
"How's it going, bro? My name is Pewdiepie, but you can call me Felix!" Warrior of Light, after watching his comrades interacting with their new representatives and their assists, turns his head to face his representative…or representatives when seeing the two men with the same glow of light on the three's chests after the brunette–haired man introduces himself as Pewdiepie while his friend with green hair spoke with a grin and an Irish – tone. "And my name is Jacksepticeye, or you can call me Jack for short…"
Pewdiepie or Felix has slicked brown hair with slight facial hair and wears a blue jacket with a white undershirt showing a blue logo of a fist, black jeans, and blue and white sneakers, while Jack or Jacksepticeye wears a dark grey cap over his green hair, a blue jacket with a hood and short – like sleeves, a pair of brown pants and white and black shoes.
Even if they or some of the others do not look like they can fight, the Warrior of Light could find this better to take this risk than having EVERYONE inexperienced enough to fight when he gave the three of them, including himself, a soft nod of approval before exclaiming while everyone does not seem to notice the bright glow in their hearts is dimming to nothing without a trace. "It is an honour to be of acquaintance, I hope we shall work together to defeat Shinryu."
To be continued…
A/N (context with the initial version):
- The character Eric Asmodeus Zechs was originally a different, older character named Eric Embryo, but I want to focus on a single character and his (headcanon) child self. At the same time, Rin was Firion's representative rather than Eric Zech's Assist; changed because of wanted to both add on my Cross Ange: Living Hell lore and add on my original characters.
- The characters Jules Ivy, Hiro Adonelle and Melusine are from my original upcoming/ future animated shows with the former from Redemons and the latter two from my new 'Instigator' series.
- Ashiya Douman (Kanou's Servant) did not appear at all in the initial version because I've been playing Fate/ Grand Order since Nov-Dec 2022 (JUST to get Ashiya). But I ended up loving and obsessed with playing the game. There will be a few more Servants appearing in this story.
