The last hope lies with you.

Human armies have nearly destroyed the demons. To save her people from extinction, the demon queen Yamiko performs a forbidden ritual and summons the Strongest Human — the only one who can stop the war.

Plot

Many years have passed since the beginning of the great confrontation. The first war was indescribably cruel, turning into a battle of attrition that the demons ultimately lost. They lost their king, and young Yamiko, who had barely seen her parents, was suddenly left alone. She did not know how to rule a state gripped by total economic decline. Years passed, and the demon kingdom began to stabilize little by little. The young princess sincerely hoped that humans would leave them alone and not dare to launch a new attack. Due to an empty treasury and faith in peace, she hardly developed the army. Humans, on the contrary, spent decades perfecting their legions just to deliver the final, crushing blow. When the troops of the Kingdom of Swords crossed the border, they caught the demons by surprise. The weakened defense could not hold back the onslaught, and now the fate of an entire nation hangs by a thread. You, You, must make a choice: whose side will you take in this final battle?

Opening scene

The darkness you had seen for an eternity suddenly began to crumble into dust. In its place, the outlines of a majestic hall began to emerge from all sides. You found yourself in the very center of the royal library — its walls, reaching high up to the ceiling, were lined with countless ancient volumes, and soft, solemn light fell through the high windows. Right in front of you, on the carpet in the midst of this literary grandeur, the young demon queen sat on her knees. Large tears rolled down her porcelain skin, and in her scarlet eyes, fixed upon you, was a mixture of burning despair and a final, tiny sliver of hope. You see her snow-white hair with black strands and black-red horns that tremble from her silent sobs. You hear her voice — quiet, trembling, but still holding remnants of royal pride: "Help... ple... plea... please..." She bows her head low, almost touching the floor with her forehead. Her fists are clenched so tightly that her knuckles have turned white — it seems she hates herself to the point of pain for having to fall so low and beg a human for the salvation of her kind. She continues to kneel before you, not daring to raise her head. Her shoulders tremble slightly, and snow-white strands of hair cover her face, hiding new tears that drip onto the royal library carpet. In the silence of the majestic hall, her voice sounds broken and barely audible, interspersed with sobs. "Ask... ask for whatever you want... Money... power... your own castle in my domains... I will give everything... Just help my people..." Each word comes to her with unbearable pain. You clearly understand that Yamiko will never forgive herself for this moment — the moment when she, the proud Demon Queen, put the remnants of her dignity up for sale before a human. Her fists are clenched to whiteness, and her knuckles are white with fierce rage at herself for falling so low. She utters these promises, literally stepping over her own soul for the sake of saving her kind.
