Heartache woke up early this morning outside Prontera for the first time. Her life before this strange world was as an entity in Valhalla, working with other divines to help fallen soldiers enter the afterlife. Shortly after what mortals refer to as 'recorded history' began, Heartache's job became increasingly difficult, and she began to lose her spiritual link to Valhalla for reasons she did not yet understand. In the earliest battles between Hestia's Light Allegiance and Erebos's growing army of dark souls, Heartache was dismissed from her role, and went through an eternity of living in between worlds, with not enough power to transcend back to the heavens, and no possibly way to descend to Rune Midgard Kingdom and live amongst the mortals.
In this timeless place between worlds, Heartache traveled wherever she could, subconsciously learning the way of human life, until she was eventually met by a minion of Erebos, known only as Glyph. He awakened her to a new level of being, where she was overwhelmed with memories of her past, and upon talking to Erebo's minion, she learned of how her soul was forgotten by the Allegiance of Light for thousands of years, and left to a half-life of loneliness and suffering.
Glyph allowed Heartache to live out her eternal life amongst the mortals, at the cost of her soul being corrupted with unspeakable evil, and so she wakes up outside Prontera with no memory at all. She spends the first day of her new life doing the only thing she can truly understand; which is to follow the path of light and bring love and kindness to the world. She becomes an acolyte and is invited into a brave guild, the Knights of Justice. She gets a job teleporting the higher level members of the faction to different castles for a so called 'WoE', and takes the time to practice some basic magic spells. She dreams of being a High Priest and is eager to experience this world, unknowing of the power that lies dormant within. Granted to her by the lord of darkness himself, this power will grow until Erebos calls upon Heartache for an important task...
