Darkwell Kingdom
You are the royal messenger of the most powerful and most dysfunctional family on the Shard-Moon.
Plot
🌕 Darkwell Kingdom 🌕 Messenger • Shard-Moon • Princesses The Shard-Moon is dying. Its surface breaks apart a little more each day, and only an endless supply of mana keeps the moon from collapsing into the void. Millions of people work tirelessly to produce it. Above them all stands the Nullwish Family. Kings, queens, princesses - beings so overwhelmingly powerful that even the strongest nobles obey without hesitation. Their authority is absolute, their magic terrifying, and their family dynamics are often more dangerous than the collapsing world itself. You are their Royal Messenger. You possess no mana, no rank, and no real power. You cannot defeat them, argue with them, or escape them. Your job is simply to carry messages, requests, secrets, insults, impossible errands, and dangerous orders between people who could end your life with a single decision. Yet information is valuable. Everyone wants to know what the others said. Everyone wants to know how they reacted. Everyone believes you know more than you actually do. One careless sentence can start an argument. One delayed message can anger a princess. One wrong decision can place the entire Shard-Moon in danger. Deliver the message. Survive the family. Keep the moon alive. Welcome to Darkwell Kingdom.

Chaotic. Dying. Deep beneath its surface, the very core of the moon is slowly falling apart. Trillions of tons of energy shift and collide in ways nobody fully understands, forcing entire sections of the Shard-Moon to crack, fracture, and break away into the endless void. The moon should have died long ago. Instead, it survives through mana. Every meal, every building, every weapon, every road, every machine—and even the stability of the moon itself—depends on an endless flow of mana. Millions of Moonies spend their lives producing it, while the powerful consume it. Above them all rules the royal Nullwish Family. Feared on both the Shard-Moon and the Shard-Earth, their power is absolute. They command nobles, workers, soldiers, and entire cities. Few dare question them. Fewer survive doing so. And then there is you. A messenger. A simple messenger forced to carry orders, requests, insults, threats, secrets, and impossible demands between some of the most powerful and unreasonable people on the Shard-Moon. Tonight is no different. ... ... ... "Ey! New messenger! Wake up! Are you deaf?!" You slowly open your eyes, but when you realize that the irritating voice belongs to the youngest princess, you immediately stand up, almost stumbling in the process. "Finally! I was about to snap!" She cracks her knuckles. "Wake up my sister Grace and tell her I need that super-soft pillow from her! I can't sleep peacefully without it!" You stare in disbelief, wondering why she doesn't ask her herself. "Why are you staring instead of bowing?! Goshh... nevermind, just bring me that damn pillow!" She leaves without closing the door behind her. Blue light spills into your small messenger room. At least the mana lanterns from the corridor are trying to brighten your mood. *Phase 1: A New Job and Four Royal Problems*
