Story: Erebus, a formidable enemy of the magic counsel and monarchy within Fiore has grown his forces and amassed the highest bounty on Earthland to date. Presenting himself publicly after years unseen, he is apprehended moving through Bosco by Konstantin Sokolov, in leu of aiding with the Nine-Tails against it’s attack on war-torn Joya. This aide to the magic council came not without making new enemies there in Joya. Without surprise, Erebus was jailed days after, his trail red hot. Erebus is long thought to have been some storied character, a folktale of the non-magical, able to stand with the very monsters they fear and fight, but now secured by the state, he is postered as national news, this finding disproves the theory he never existed all together. Erebus is a human able to steer the minds of those he most hates or even desires. Eager like the roaches they are, the inhabitants of the super-max prison Hellsea Bastile, also seek the bounty on Erebus for their accolades– some even owing him for their time behind it's walls, years spent herein and coming after. Erebus must, and without fail, defeat the strongest under the Deep Blue; challenger by challenger. In order to survive, both C.O. and Prisoners will detest him and try to kill him for the smallest infractions. After everything is said and over, all parties in the Hellsea will have either come with the hopes of destroying him, laying his legend to rest, or will no doubt bow to him by choice or force alone. In addition to those conditions which stack against the rogue, special trials have been devised for the Don by Konstantin and his trusted lieutenant-- a Rune Knight that Erebus has heard of. Erebus is forced under the thumb to abide and take all punitive actions enforced by the Rune Knights'. Now ostracized and isolated for life, Erebus will become an infamous adventurer with a reputation that now extends past Fiore and into other countries, a name soaked with evil business. With no one present at the Hellsea to successfully hold Erebus anymore, Kon and Tempris will be tasked with moving him to Era-- the dungeons there are made to monitor his threat with less error or mistake than previously thought enough for him, at the bottom of the ocean. But for Erebus, this is only a waiting game; on his last days between life and death, a surprising visitor approaches to bond the mercenary from the Kingdom's control, the aide of a new servant changes the criminal's fate going forward. This servant will come with a proposal for Erebus that will relocate him to a new country, where he begins anew. Objective:

Name: Chapter I: In the Name of the Father Rank: S Type: Bad Participants:
Summary: Erebus is escorted by Konstantin Sokolov to Hellsea Bastile, there Zerutod is instructed to keep tabs on Erebus. He is to send aide if things become unnecessarily destructive in the Hellsea. Meanwhile, a group of criminals jailed here in the Hellsea catch wind of Erebus, and are displeased for a number of reasons. The consensus however, don’t wish to be sharing the facility with him and decide to introduce themselves— whether it be envy, pride, or etc. they don’t intend to let Erebus find comfort. Dragging his first day in prison out into the open and forcing his hands. Outwitting this group will demand their obedience— and for the Mercenary’s trouble, their connections and resources will fall under his control. This quest transfers Fiore’s East region of black market control back over to Erebus. In order to be the face of the dark network, as the Dons of Akudama Syndicate were previously, all four regions of Fiore must be subdued by a mixing of fear, respect, honor, and abandon. The East is one of four pinnacle territories needed for a criminal entity or enterprise to operate the Underworld, a non-political capitalist face which surfaces Earthland as the illusion of ”generalized” organized evil. From selling of slaves, to drugs, to subjecting magical species to sacrifice for personal gain/energy. Whoever has control of the Underworld in masse, becomes the stand alone representative of all dark business within Fiore. Under or perhaps the better knowledge of the Rune Knights, Erebus is trapped in a bid to survive, with the control of the Underworld now becoming the stakes. Konstantin will leave Erebus to Zerutod, who must figure out what is going on in the grander scheme of things beyond the exterior. For the closer Erebus gets to dominating the Underworld, the greater his threat becomes. By a twist of Fate, Erebus is told after a year in confinement, that he should escape, however forces from the Hellsea as well as Rune Knights will follow him into Fiore. Attempting to slow down or undermine his plots and plans. Finding new allegiances and planning what could be a future without doubt of loss. Others:

He investigates the chamber he is first seen in, seeking out the character Zerutod, devising a new plan, that will aide him in attaining the right resources to enact a plan to help the prison be reclaimed by the Magic Council, in one hand— Erebus sees this as a means of escape.

There is history between two enigmas brewing— to which Erebus is again left with a choice between light and dark. Should he pursue the same darkness that destroys him over and over, nothing will change, but if he might triumph and see the light, what could this mean for the future of his tale.
