"Fairy King Oberon, your reign ends today!"
"We've co this far, and we will no longer allow you to continue devouring the Spirits for your sustenance!"
Two brave Centaur goddesses stood defiant before the old, bearded, and utterly mad King of Fairies in the Heavenly Domain of Europe, Avalon.
Oberon, the King of Fairies and the supre Authority among the European Heavenly Domains.
Once, the ancient Spirit had been a pure-hearted man who sought to unify the Spirits and Fairies.
But over thousands of years, as he aged, he realized that Nature and the Forest were slowly consuming his lifeforce. In his bitterness, he rebelled.
He turned against the gods and spirits, convinced they were all parasites feeding on his existence. He began devouring them.
Thus began an event that shook the Underworld of Europe: Oberon, the King of Fairies, launched a centuries-long killing rampage, wiping out entire lineages of Spirits and Fae.
Only those who fled into the lower mortal world, hiding within small Corrupted Domains, such as the Darkwood Fae, managed to escape. They mingled their bloodlines with cursed beings like vampires, rendering themselves no longer "appetizing" to the cannibal king.
Yet Sofelaia, the Centaur Spirit Goddess of Heavenly Light and Arms, and her sister Sofarpia, the Centaur Spirit Goddess of Elents and Swordsmanship, refused to accept his tyranny any longer. Through their charisma and strength, they united the surviving gods, even those who had once served the King, and forged the mightiest Alliance of Deities and Spirits ever seen in Europe's supernatural world.
"You foolish... children...! All of you feed on eternally...! Do you think I will accept this treason?! I am the Heart of the Forest...! How dare you...!"
Before he could finish, the old fairy king groaned in pain. Blood erupted from his mouth as another magic sword pierced his heart.
He lay sprawled on the floor of his ruined castle, dozens of enchanted blades impaling his body. At long last, after the most grueling battle these deities had ever endured, his life was ending.
Many had fallen, but the survivors could finally claim the victory they had sacrificed so much to achieve.
"You may be the Heart of the Forest," Sofelaia declared, "but we will find another way—one that does not involve devouring the Spirits of Nature or your fellow deities!"
The old fairy king laughed bitterly.
"Fools... all of you are fools... Hahah... Nnngh?! Gaahhh...!"
Before he could speak another word, agony ripped through him. He scread once more and died.
Sofarpia reached into his chest and withdrew a glowing green stone, the Divine Yggdrasil Seed he had made his core.
He had earned the title "Heart of the Forest" through sheer greed: he had secretly replaced his own heart with the seed long ago, keeping its existence hidden from everyone.
When he realized his fatal mistake, he tried to undo it but could not. He nearly perished in the attempt.
In desperation, he resorted to cannibalizing his fellow spirits, fairies, and deities—terrorizing Avalon for ages.
Until now.
With his final breath, the stolen Seed of Yggdrasil was reclaid.
The forest began to wither. Sofarpia quickly planted the seed in his corpse, using his body as fertilizer.
From his remains, a new Spirit Tree burst forth. Branches and roots spread rapidly, tearing apart the ruined castle until nothing of Oberon's wicked legacy remained.
The Centaur sisters exchanged a weary smile and nodded. The nightmare had ended at last, though much work still lay ahead.
They galloped into the skies to join the other spirits and deities.
"We did it! It's over!"
"OOOOOHHHHHH!"
Deities, spirits, and fae erupted in celebration, welcoming the dawn of a new era.
The sisters nodded to one another.
"I suppose it's our ti now," Sofelaia sighed. "I love this world and its people, but... there is soone we must et."
"Kireina-sama," Sofarpia agreed. "I can feel her presence through this world. Sowhere, she might be searching for us."
"But until then, can't we enjoy the festivities?" Sofelaia chuckled.
"Yeah! We've earned a bit of celebration!" Sofarpia laughed. "Now, everyone, let's—"
RUMBLE!
Before they could join the revelry, sothing terrifying shook Avalon.
The Heavenly Domain trembled violently as a colossal crack tore open in the sky. Countless crystals surged from within the fracture.
The crystals glowed in every color, greedily absorbing the rich spirit energy.
From the endless dinsion of crystals, a pair of gleaming rainbow eyes, frad by long eyelashes, stared down.
"Yes, this is mine! A wonderful Spiritual Realm, and even a fresh Yggdrasil! All mine!"
Before anyone could react or resist, the entire Heavenly Domain shattered into countless fragnts. Every deity, spirit, and piece of the realm was drawn into the swirling vortex.

"What's going on?! Big bro! Look at the sky!"
"What now?! We're already in deep trouble here!"
Redgaria's sister shouted over the chaos as they battled hordes of people transford into crystalized monsters, bodies covered in glowing spirit crystals, groaning monstrously as they attacked him and the surviving superheroes of Arica.
The mont the President declared that all of Arica now bowed to their Queen and Goddess, the Primordial Queen of the Spirit Plane, everything had changed.
A desperate resistance ford among superheroes and villains alike, including Redgaria and his sister, whom he had dragged along for safety.
Those who refused to comply were swiftly attacked and captured by Spirit Drones hovering in the skies.
Every citizen was forced to consu a Spirit Pill to "beco stronger and more useful for the country." Many who blindly obeyed swallowed the pill and beca spiritual beings enslaved to the Queen.
Now that the resistance had been discovered, their Domain was invaded by literal tens of millions of Arican citizens, monstrously transford into crystalized zombies.
Redgaria, his sister, the supervillains and superheroes he had reluctantly allied with—all of them were overwheld.
The mission to retrieve the Origin of Superpowers, the Esper Girl, failed. Redgaria hadn't even located her before an allied superhero inford him she had been kidnapped by two mysterious n.
One radiated blinding sunlight; the other was made entirely of darkness.
And now, as if matters could not worsen, the Domain where they hid, along with nearby Heavenly Domains and Realms, was being pulled into a dark vortex.
"What is this?! Where are we going?!"
"The Domain is shaking!"
"The Realms in the sky!"
"Look—at least the Spiritual Plane is being affected too!"
The superheroes smashed the zombified citizens apart without rcy, cheering briefly—only for their expressions to darken instantly.
Crack, crack...!
CRAAASH!
Their Domain could no longer withstand the force. It shattered into fragnts and was swallowed by the vortex that was devouring every Realm, Corrupted Domain, and Heavenly Domain across Earth.
"W-We're heading to Japan?!"
Redgaria gasped, clutching his sister tightly with summoned skeletal arms. He tried reaching out through his connection to Kireina, doubting it would work.
But then...
"Kireina, we're in trouble here—Ah!"
His eyes widened as a red rose blossod on his chest. As the rose grew larger, Kireina erged from its petals.
"K-Kireina?!"
"Eh?!"
While everyone stared in stunned disbelief, clinging desperately as the suction intensified, Kireina turned to face the endless horde of monsters and the chaotic sky.
"So many things are happening at once right now, Redgaria...! But I have sworn upon my soul to never let Them take what I hold precious from again."
Her eyes blazed with fierce determination as she confronted the chaos, the monsters, and even the sharp, distant gaze of the Primordial Spirit Queen ruling within the Spiritual Plane.
With her powers, she shielded as many as she could, reversing the corruption in the transford people, healing them, and swiftly drawing them into a separate dinsion she created on the spot.
RUMBLE!
And then, everyone was swept away.
