'Divinity Online'. The new breakthrough in the Full-Immersion Virtual Reality technology. After decades of work, Divinity Corp had achieved the impossible. Creating a massive video game world that people can enter and live in as if it were Earth. Their goal was clear, to create a world other than Earth that we can call home.


A place where the laws of reality vanish, and the true ceiling of power shifts completely.


Naturally, the shockwave Divinity Online created across the entire globe was unlike anything else. Every single person has heard of it, even those who have had no interest in video games before.


Giant corporations and even governments immediately rushed to start planning to invest in this new world and just like that, billions of people had their eyes on one single date: the 19th of July.

Arthur, like everyone else, had heard of the game and was as excited as everyone else to try it, if not even more. With how much he grew bored of his life on earth, this fantasy world was like the divine call he had been searching for. However, there was a very small problem.


He had no money to buy the machine required to access Divinity Online. His wretched life had turned him into a broke teenager with no parents, and no relatives. But, by some kind of luck, he got his hands on one of those machines.

Not knowing what was awaiting him in that world, Arthur was simply seeking one thing... A new opportunity in life and to find a purpose he could work for when he had none so far.


[Welcome to 'Divinity Online'.]

[Assimilation Started...]

The island was as quiet as ever as students returned to their rooms to sleep. Nobody stayed out late since they were too exhausted after a long day of studying and fighting. They couldn't even find time to play around except on the weekend. 


The schedule of the curriculum was simply that intense and there was no room to lose focus or waste time. Even those who didn't like studying found themselves forced to follow this strict schedule so that they don't end up getting demoted or even worse… Expelled from the academy as a whole.


In the darkness of the streets, only illuminated by the light poles scattered on both sides of the road, a silhouette moved in the dark heading toward a certain place.


Due to the silhouette's speed, it was almost impossible to notice her without looking very closely and very intently and even then she could easily pass through and one wouldn't detect her.
