To explain Kamae's past is to explain the people who came before. Kamae was once a whole race of people, a diverse species who was created by the Shinjin like any other. Who grew into an intelligent species only to discover they had been created, to be spied on and ultimately they learned they were not the first. Their subsequent searches found other worlds that had a similar pattern to them.

This group of people then formed a secret group within their government to purge their world of the shinjin's "gifts" of life and drained the world of its population. From the trees, to the animals and its people. Water drained from the planets surface, land became barren wastelands of ruins and nothing was left save a giant crater. In that crater was the cradle of life, the epicenter of a new life. This "orb" of life gave birth to a new species, a species that came to be known as the Talos.

They were just as smart as their predecessors, adapting quickly to their ruined world and reforming it in hopes of making a life from it. The orb that gave birth to the world formed a body, a white husk that drifted to the moon where it lay dorment for centuries. Upon its discovery, the Talos were frightened that they had discovered a divine being. Scientists hide the body away from the public eyes, keeping it at what they called the Hollowed Yard.

The testing and study of the husk went on for years to come, decades past with no one able to explain what it was. Many theorized it was an extraterrestrial entity that had been sent to spy on them, some theorized that it was a god that died watching over them, others believed it a cursed thing and should be destroyed. No one could agree on what it was originally, and the husk was left up to speculation for years. It wasn't until the Kapala wars that things took a turn for the worst.

Countries waged war against each other over their belief systems and this lead to an arms race in a holy war. This war was later dubbed the sixty year war. It lasted for nearly six decades, creating a rift in the peoples hearts against their governments. Caste systems were implimented, slavery became a common sight and the Talos faced a drastic change in their ideals. Magic was common ground now, used to better their lives and to keep slaves in check.

Noble families developed their own magical styles, art forms for combat and refined them down. Artifacts of power were created, experiments conducted and the world was plunged into a dark history. Though the world thrived, it was considered one of the darkest dates in their history as dark arts were honed. During this time a unique form of magic was formed, it was called Ritual of Rakshasa, where the user would create a ritual to close the gates of hell to bring a soul back to life.

It was a temporary spell that enabled the summoning of a dark entity meant for the after life but forcefully jerked back to the world of the living. This entity could be enthralled to do the bidding of their master for a limited time but would ultimately devour their user. They were considered incredibly powerful entities by most mages, capable of decimating their opponents with unbridled power and lust for destruction. This entities came to be known as the Rakshesha, a Talos that looked like them but under there fake skins was a monster of frightening power.

The first Summoner of a Rakshesha was a young noble mage, a prodigy even amongst prodigies in magic. His ability to understand magic unmatched amongst his colleagues and his desire to create something no one else had made. The mage summoned the beast in an effort to usurp the noble houses, to create a monarchy for himself in his country. This would ultimately back fire as his own handmaiden betrayed him, a secret lover who disagreed with his desires for domination by such evil means. The hand maiden stole his research away, giving it to other noble houses to allow his research to be replicated. It wasn't long before more Rakshesha emerged, and a deadly war began. Demons roamed the streets of the capital city, but its name was stricken from the history books as a cursed city.

After the war, when all the nobles had killed themselves upon their own spells and the Rakshesha had claimed their owners... In the ruins of this desolate place, it was said one Rakshesha remained, freed from death by consuming many souls. Yet known dared to approach to find out. Yet the world around this desolate land which had come to be known as Ravana, the world flourished. Three great countries arose, the military mighty Skanda, the intellectual state of Saraswati, and the economic giant Shri.

The destruction of Ravana, coupled with the dark ages of their history encouraged a treaty. This treaty allowed the nations to keep an eye on Ravana while also outlawing dark magics as seen before. The husk was still monitored heavily, studied endlessly and still nothing was found. The skeletal frame still looming over the world and had come to be known by the public. Its reveal was unintentional by the three governments following the destruction of Ravana. The moons rotation eventually revealing the Husk by the suns light. Commoners began to believe that the husk was the cause of the dark wars. That the husk has reaped the souls of dark mages and that it was some evil deities corpse struck down by a divine god.

A new religion came to be from this belief, that a good and just god known as Karna had come to save them by striking down the dark god and their servants. This religion quickly spread like wild fire, the three nations adopting this religion as their primary beliefs. It promoted goodness, fairness and equality... but not all practiced this beliefs. Slavery was still prominent in Shri, and it refused to remove this as slavery was their primary source of income. Abolishing it would destroy their economy. This caused tensions amongst Shri and Saraswati, the two nations at each others throats over the issue.

Centuries past, scrambles for power arose, and fluttered out. Heroes came to exist, villains and tyrants. But the world always found its balance once more. The Ritual of the Rakshasa became a distant memory, but where there is a way, someone will find it. A band of adventurers eventually went to Ravana, scouring its carcass for riches and they found a book. The research of the noble who founded the ritual. They brought it back to Shri where it was sold for a hefty price. It circled the globe numerous times, finding its way into many hands... but it wasn't till it fell into the hands of a mage known as Yama.

A kind mage who at first saw no harm in learning the rituals, seeking to know what would cause the world pain should it fall into the wrong hands. Yet Yama didn't realize that the book was cursed, bound to unfortunately awaken the last Rakshesha within Ravana. The book bound Yama to the Rakshesha, fusing the two together over the course of years. Yama became outwardly sick, realizing he had been cursed to late and warned his students. The students informed the counsel their master would succumb to the evil Rakshesha and they marched upon his laboratory to slay him.

What they found was a hell scape, a place of fleshy walls, screaming faces and bodies. Yama had transformed into a terrible beast between Talos and Rakshesha. The beast escaped the archmagi's, fleeing to the city of ravana with many following behind him. This beast came to be known as Hidimba. The beast would arrive in Ravana with his pursuers in toe, but unfortunately they were greeted by the powerful Rakshesha that awaited within. They were caught up in a ritual, one that drained them of their life force and souls to raise the three gates of hell.

This gates were not truly gates to HFIL, but rather gates used to degrade souls to the point they were able to be turned into physical objects. This objects varied greatly from one another, some where weapons, others items of less import such as combs or a pen. This objects were then sent out into the world by the Rakshesha who named themselves Ravana after the city. Ravana hoped to draw more souls in to perform the ritual of Harihara.

Out in the world the objects of power came to be known as Artifacts. This artifacts came to rest in numerous hands, but the one that mattered was the spear of Vel. A cursed object of unimaginable power containing the soul of Yama the archmagi. This spear housed the soul of Yama, who had been corrupted to evil and was twisted. The spear of Vel came into the possession of Karna, a nameless slave who got his namesake from the coin his parents found on him.

Karna was a teenage boy who had suffered greatly at the hands of his fellow Talos, yet never gave up hope for his people to one day be united under the idea of peace and equality. Karna lived in Shri, where he was a boy who worked in a water purification center. While doing his job, the land owner barged into the building, proclaiming one of the slaves had stolen from him and he had tracked him here. The slaves were lined up to be questioned, and through keen observation, karna found out one of the children had stolen the land owners watch. Probably to sell it in the future in some vain hope it would set him free.

Karna was quickly able to take the watch from the boy in secret, before turning himself in to the land owner. Karna was dragged from the building where he was publicly flogged before being taken to the owners home. There he was tortured to be made an example out of, yet he would learn the land owner knew who stole it. He was only using Karna as a personal bit of satisfaction for his own. He took the young boy from the water purification plant where he was threatening to kill the boy in the hall. Karna could hear this, his anger at the injustice of the situation rising in his chest.

The boy was then greeted by a voice, the voice teasing him about his situation. After a heated debate over right and wrong, the voice told him it would lend its power to him if he made a show. Karna accepted reluctantly and broke free of his bindings. Karna was like the wind, sweeping through the mansion like a hurricane of retribution and saved the young boy from the evil torturers. The boy and Karna went to escape through the basement but where forced to hide in a side room.

The voice spoke up once more, luring Karna closer to it and eventually revealed a hidden door in a teasing voice. The two entered the door to find a floating spear, held in stasis with magic. A vile green spear with cracked that ran down its hilt like a sickness spreading. With the doors being smashed into with axes, Karna was forced to choose. He could let themselves be cornered and killed, or accept the vile artifacts power. Karna, sensing the spears corruption, made a deal with the entity within. He would wield its power, but no harm must come to innocent people. Yama, still holding a bit of goodness in his heart if only by a sliver accepted, and Karna together fought back the soldiers.

Karna and the boy would escape under the cover of night in the city. Karna dropping the boy off in a freedom group camp, which he had found thanks to Yama's help. Yama proclaiming they could not defend themselves and a helpless "worm" at the same time. With their charge safely out of harms way, Karna ventured into the night. With the power of the spear, Karna was able to escape his pursuers and venture out into the world.

Karna was not easily controlled by Yama as he had originally thought, rather Yama found himself at a disadvantage against such a pure soul. Karna was able to suppress Yama deep within the spear of Vel, keeping him in check. Yet each time Karna used the spear, his resistances began to falter and crumble away. Karna went on to spread justice to the enslaved, helpless and innocent. At first Karna believed he was alone in this power, but after a few weeks of wielding his new found power, he came across another.

This user was an adept mage and able to wield his weapon like a second limb. It was a scarf that could strike like a razor sharp wind, or block his spear with its stretchy fabric. Karna found himself at a complete disadvantage, and unable to deal a decisive blow was forced to treat. Upon getting safe by using his friends home, Karna confronted Yama that night. Yama then explained that there was well over 40 artifacts out there, each one varying in strength greatly and different in its own way.

He then revealed he was the strongest out of the bunch, but karna could not utilize his full strength because Yama refused to give it to him. Karna scolded yama, but the Rakshesha ignored his insults. The next day karna met another user of the artifacts, and the two came to become allies. This new found ally identified themselves as Morgana, and the two set out into the world together. He learned the mages name that had defeated him was Hush, or at least that was his alias. Nothing was known about where he came from or why he had attacked karna. Only that he was extremely good at using his artifact and was probably from saraswati.

In the following months, Karna would go through several adventures, going across the lands to fight many artifact users who were going crazy. He met several friends along the way, becoming the hero on a journey to rid the world of the evil that plagued it. Yet in the shadows of Skanda, a foul plot was unfolding. The military nation having been quiet in all of this uprisings and artifact wars. They did not step in to stop the evil objects from spreading, but rather seemed to draw away from the world.

It wasn't till Karna was wounded severely that the heroes group escaped into the nation of Skanda. There they fled to the capital of their nation, kumbhakarna, seeking aid for their friend. Karna was seen by the best doctors available and his life was saved. Yet Yama, the spirit of his spear saw evil in the nation, warning the group to be alert. Just as the group was preparing to leave, they were set upon by Rakshesha summoned by Artifact users of a secret order.

Upon defeating them, the group mistakenly believed it was the nation of Skanda who had sent them, but Yama corrected them, stating that was not the evil he felt. Yama instructed the group to leave Skanda with Karna, stating they would surely die if they stayed here. The group agreed reluctantly, taking Karna and fleeing the nation. Their journey north lead them to a small province of Saraswati, there they hunted down a rogue group of cultists threatening nearby villages.

Upon defeating the group and dismantling the cultists... they were greeted with a horrifying sight. In that late night while celebrating, they along with the rest of the world witnessed the husk proclaimed to be the dark god seemingly come to life... Its bones moving as if to pull itself from the moon. Its body tore the moon asunder, leaving a grave wound upon its surface before disappearing. No one knew why, or even how this had come to be. They only knew it was an ill omen, and no one slept that night.

Despite the terrible sight, the group was hailed as heroes and they set about their path. They traveled far and wide for nearly 2 years, their adventures both perilous and wonderful. Karna came to be known as the embodiment of the true god, his prophet and he was greeted with a round of applause and cheers where ever he went. His party had nearly destroyed, or taken most of the artifacts of Ravana, so they set their sights on the final stage of the battle.

They along with Saraswati and Shri troops marched on Ravana city, the ruins having been transformed into a Rakshesha's paradise. The troops held the monsters at bay as the heroes stormed Ravana's castle. They struck down Ravana, triumphantly cheering as the Rakshesha was defeated. Yet in his final breath, the powerful entity made a final packed. In his dying breath he summoned the husk of the moon to the city of Ravana. As he lay dying, denying his summon its kill and openly mocking the heroes. He was crushed by the falling castle. The husk's body destroying the city under its weight.

The heroes escaped just in time thanks to the sacrifice of one of their comrades. Karna arrived outside just in time to see this husk, the dark god, begin to change. It wasn't until the nation of Skanda showed up and began attacking the other two weakened nations that it was revealed the treachery. Ravana had used the lives lost in the battle to perform the ritual of Harihara, a ritual in which the souls of Rakshesha who had been summoned would conjoin into one body.

A mage explained that all of the Rakshesha did not possess bodies, but instead were ghosts or entities known as Demons as the closest thing to label them as. The Rakshesha could not go to the afterlife once summoned, as such they were left to linger on the planet unseen. The ritual was used to collect the unseen entities into a single body, and the Skandians were attempting to hastien the awakening of this new and powerful entity. One that surpassed all Rakshesha before it.

They called it Promordias, the primeval of their world and their dark god. Skanda had chosen to worship the husk over the course of years, viewing it as a god of salvation and worship. They viewed Karna as the evil prophet of a false god, claiming him to be the bringer of doom. Karna and his friends fled the field knowing they had no chance against this new god of death. The nations of Saraswati and Shri fought hard, but were forced to retreat. Their army was decimated completely few survived the dark gods awakening. The souls absorbed by Promordias fueled his birth and when he was born the evil entity devoured all of the dead, along with the surviving Rakshesha who were not bound to Artifacts or within a contract.

Karna and friends returned to Saraswati where they began to rest and prepare to deal with this new found threat. The nations of Shri and Saraswati gathered together to discuss strategy. In the meeting, Karna was allowed to observe the proceedings and give his opinion on how to proceed. The meeting was interrupted by the leader of Skanda broadcasting to the world, introducing the new god Promordias who would rule them in his stead.

Promordias proclaimed himself the first true Talos, the original creation of the processors. He revealed to them all the truth that the previous race has committed mass suicide after learning the Kaioshin's had created them. He revealed that he was their first god, their true maker and deserved their ever lasting loyalty. He then stated any who refused would be crushed beneath his might and with a demonstration destroyed a small neutral island to the south using his powers. With a time limit placed, the broadcast cut off.

The leaders of Saraswati and Shri briefly thought of giving up but was convinced by Karna to fight on. He explained that the deity summoned was born from Rakshesha, that it was an evil entity who fed on the souls of others. Yama then spoke up, agreeing while also revealing himself to the Archmagi of Saraswati. Some where greatly offended that Karna had hid this truth from them, but were ultimately pacified thanks to Karna reassuring them that Yama was on their side. Even revealing that had they not been warned by yama, they would have all died.

The only reason Yama had survived the dark god's hunger despite being in the spear was that he was not a full blooded Rakshesha. His Hidimba origins protected him from the influence of Promordias and he was able to retain some good in his heart. Yama objected to this naturally, yet did not deny the goodness within him. Satisfied, the Archmagi decided to allow Yama to stay in the possession of Karna. The time limit of one week was a generous one by Promordias, and thanks to that Yama along with the other Artifacts were able to combine into one powerful weapon and armor.

Karna, preparing for war was then told of a strange phenomenon happening within Skanda. They were able to watch using an artifact that Promordias was creating "children" and they were seen scattering about the lands of Skanda. Karna became concerned that the children of Promordias would undoubtedly come to their father's aid. Each one was nearly as strong as Karna currently was and he could not deal with them all. So they decided to begin their hunt.

Promordias meanwhile set loose his children which he dubbed sins. They scattered about the lands of Skanda to prepare for retaliations by the users of the Artifacts, and he successfully predicted the movements of Karna's group. However, he failed to account for the fact Karna possessed a unique trait that no one else had. Karna was able to "dispel" Promordias' existence thanks to the prayers of the people. The children of Promordias were dispatched one by one thanks to Karna's ability, and Karna recognized himself as Promordias' weakness. This lead to the hero being able to confront Promordias directly.

A dire battle took place, one that shook the world to its core. However before the final blow could be struck, Yama emerged from the spear of Karna and impaled Promordias. It was revealed that Yama was indeed a child of the husk, but rather than being the actual Yama, he had faked his identity. He was actually a Talos who had in life discovered the husk and fed upon its carcass. Hence why he was able to fuse with a Rakshesha in the first place.

He had orchestrated the whole ordeal of resurrecting the original Talos and by feeding upon the carcass, he had gained immunity to aging. While he was indeed very old and was nearly dead, Yama was able to live long enough for his plan to be put into place. Yama revealed his name to be Kamae, the original sin of the Talos. He had fed upon their creator and attuned his soul to the husk. By resurrecting it, he was now able to "live" within the body of Promordias.

Karna killing the children had only made things go more smoothly, and while it wasn't what he had predicted, it was not an issue. So a truly devilish entity was born before Karna. Promordias was consumed by Kamae, his flesh devoured by the spirit and twisted into a suitable vessel. Once completed, Kamae turned his attention to Karna where they agreed one or the other must die. Kamae held the advantage, his powers were akin to a god when compared to Karna, and the boy held little hope of winning.

Yet thanks to a fatal flaw in Kamae's body, Karna was able to split the spirit from the body using his artifacts. Kamae was cast out, and his body was sealed away into a vault with 72 barriers and 36 vault doors. Kamae would then go down in their history as a demonic god, wrote about in children's tales about how the dark god would claim their bodies if they were bad. Karna sealed himself inside the vault so that Kamae could not get to his body without awakening Karna first.
