In the far South, there is an island shrouded in darkness. Thick trees veil the evil that dwells within. A group of people, creatures, and monsters all wish for the same things to make money off the suffering of others. They are specialists in many areas, such as assassinations, poison, arson, and the slave trade.
One of the worst methods they use to kill is through curses. A curse was something that was thought to be impossible to execute. It is meant to cause death in the most painful way possible, but for the longest time, no magician was able to use curses. The language of magic seemed to reject any form of a curse, whether instant death or brutality. At some point, curses became taboo, and those who sought a way to use them gathered together in the Dark Forest.
This forest was teeming with monsters. The dark magicians had trouble living there at first. Then one day, with the blood of a creature dripping from her blade, the magician Jezebel poured her malicious magic into the weapon, hoping to strike the dead monster once more. What she discovered, however, was how to make a cursed weapon. She went on to kill thousands with that same blade.
When she was executed, the world sighed a breath of relief, but they didn’t know that she had passed down the method of making curses to many like-minded people. It took Guardians from the magician’s tower years before they discovered a cure to rid humans of curses. Jezebel’s invention potentially killed billions of people. It still takes the lives of many to this day.
