Somewhere, a screen flickers, changing from it's usual static to the image of a young, dark-haired girl. She looks down at the destroyed ground below her, revealing her wolf ears to any who might see. Her hair sways with her gaze, hanging down across her face and lightly covering her red eyes. She stands there for several moments, mouthing silently before looking straight out and offering a weak smile.

"Hello," she begins, "I am Princess Rayne. This is not my world; I am only here to warn you. If you can leave you should do it now, while you are still yourself. This world will take far more precious things than your life if you aren't careful."
She pauses and looks toward the debris-covered ground once more. For a second her face seems to slip, her face contorting into a look of complete terror. She takes a deep breath as if gathering courage and looks back out before her again and continues, "This world was not always like this. It was once peaceful and safe. But now it is haunted by the horrible memories of the Soulless World. We called it the World of Blood, a place corrupted by evil where even the strongest and bravest became insane and terrified. That world is gone now, but the pain-stricken events leading to its fate still exist, tormenting this world and forcing it to the same fate. Already creatures with no purpose but to kill anything they see have filled these lands, but far worse things lie out there if you dare to venture across this world. If you have even a small chance at escape, use it now before you lose yourself here, before this world taints you as well!"
Her eyes sparkle with honesty, then fear, and finally tears. She closes her eyes and lifts her clawed hands to cover her face as she yells out her final refrain, "Before you become like them, like those who tried to save me! I'm so sorry! To all of them and to everyone still alive! Please forgi-"

The screen suddenly cuts to a new scene. The same girl stands there, looking out across the destruction littering the ground with a faint smile and soulless eyes. "I am Princess Rayne," she states, "And welcome to this world."
The image shuts off, leaving nothing but blackness and a faint humming, leaving you completely alone with whatever lies in wait for you in this world.

The screen flickers again, and a figure appears once more. But rather than the sad, disheveled girl from before, a man stands amidst all the destruction. His face is handsome, dominated by his beautiful gray eyes which seem to radiate some sense of sovereignty. But these eyes seem inhuman, showing an age much older than his 20-or-so appearance. He flashes a smirk, swells his chest, and speaks.

"Hello. I am Hikaru, king of demons, and I would like to welcome you to the world of Lenoria. If you do not know who I am, you will soon enough because this place is where I will win the biggest war any world has seen. And so I make you an offer: declare your loyalty to me or die. Unity under demon rule will be achieved, but I am no racist. Even humans who prove their fealty will be given a spot in the leadership of my army. Those who serve me particularly well may even find themselves ennobled. However, those that do not are the enemy and will be obliterated as so many before them have been."

A blinding flash engulfs the screen, followed by a series of images progressively more violent. Demons cover the images, destroying everything in sight and ripping anything living limb from limb. A few images show humans brutally cutting down anyone who stands in their way, and in every image Hikaru is somewhere in the background, grinning a cold grin filled with sadistic happiness. He continues speaking as these examples of his victories play out.

"I trust you to make the right choice. My demons are ordered to take anyone who declares their loyalty to an officer for commissioning. Fight for me and you will find yourself rewarded beyond all imagination. Fight against me and you will die. So, what will it be? Join me and the strength and power I bestow upon you will never diminish. Or perhaps you would prefer to stay alone here in the dark?"

He laughs, and his laugh shows both his authority and malignancy. He offers a final evil grin and the screen flickers out once more, covered for a moment by static, and then nothing, left to return to its endless cycle once more. And once more you are left completely alone.
