The Alliance - The tales of the ArtifactsWe're going to play a game.
Welcome to our childish dispute; two daughters of the same god, tangled in a selfish match.
'Let's make it like a chessboard,' says the older one.
'I'm not good at chess,' says the younger one.
'Then I'll give you one extra pawn, but remember: you can only use it once.'
'What do I get if I win?'
'If you win, I'll leave this world intact,' says the older one, 'but if you lose-'
'-this world will be destroyed when the game ends.'
What is The Alliance?It's an GxB fantasy game serie, surrounded by mystery. Divided into 4 games, they surround 4 different Main Characters; it's changing into the Year 2748 AD, after the Fourth World War that almost destroyed the earth. Each game hides a secret journal, in which a specific number of hints, hinding in all the paths available, needs to be unlocked in order to find out what's happening. All together, the information that you've gathered are the only way to unlock the true ending of the last episode.
The Background StoryThe Fourth World War, that occurs in 2480 AD, was the most devastating war throughout history... The biological bombs almost crushed us all. Amidst of all the horror, we discovered two important things that came from this war. First of all, it ended up taking us back to a small Ice Era, almost destroying all humankind. Second of all, it brought a disaster among survivors, touching only the women; an illness had broken out, only getting worse and worse with each generation. Women slowly stopped bringing children into our world. The biological bombs created a virus... that rendered organs for reproduction dysfunctional.
For an unknown reason, a scientist named Aurora, A.K.A. The Alchemist, found a cure. After almost decimating the whole human race, the illness slowly faded. But it was said that the demon's and the angel's blood, not affected by the illness, were the only cure to save humanity. That's how, we the poor mortals, acknowledged Heaven and Hell as two living worlds. After having the proof, we understood that denying them was useless.
But what once happened was forgotten with time and hatred raised in humans hearts, filling it with rage and desire of revenge. The United World we created was broke in four territories, named : The Northern Countries, the Southern Countries, the Eastern Countries and the Western Countries.
What once was one unique Royalty ended in 4 Royal Families. Northern and Southern allied together while Eastern and Western gathered their military forces as one. During the main war, that has been going for now more than 20 years, another unexpected thing happened: an inside war caused by a single family named The Ventures, the descendants of the renowned Alchemist Aurora. Around the same time, three events occured. A princess learned she was ill and would die young, a escaped 'young' woman found a place to live after almost 150 years of being a runaway and a noble child learned she was engaged to a future emperor.
For the Goddesses playing with their lives, it was just the beginning of the game.
Episode 1 - Between Darkness and LightThere is no statement that can't be denied.
The only one that I'll never be able to deny is my own illness. Because even if all we have learned always turned out false, there is a single thing that can't be changed. I'm named Abygail Valentine. I'm a princess in this new era of rebuilding. I'm seventeen years old and the doctors predict I won't live much longer because I'm weak and ill. I was born with an incurable illness. There is only a statement in this world that can't be accepted as false... I'm going to die soon.
I was young when doctors first realized something was wrong. Reports were talking about frequent problems of fever and weakness. Pages and pages of informations passed under my innocents eyes.
"...Princess... feeling sick, having fevers, chills." "...failed all treatments... unknown reasons..."
No, I won't lose anything by leaving this world anyway. There's nothing to be worried about... I think.
