Chapter 1 - Chapter 0: The Beginning of Reality

The story began in a reality that was filled only with emptiness and darkness. There was no life—only darkness that dominated this reality.

The darkness that ruled the reality cracked and shone, and the First Light appeared within the void. From it. merged the First Life, a race composed of light and gold.
