Chapter 3: The Essence of Chaos: In every great kingdom, there is always a form of corruption that enters in. As for the rulers of Ring, this was not yet a reality, but there was one thing that they feared; it was called the Vast Void. What was to be discovered there in the blackness? The OSOs put the question aside for a time, figuring that nothing from the void threatened them before, so nothing would ever threaten them. How wrong they were; little did they know that their team of dispatched nobles had found the very thing that would bring the four OSOs to their end; it was called the Essence of Chaos. While the Nobles were in the vast void, they found something floating in the darkness. It appeared like a gelatinous black fluid that would change shape constantly, as if it were in a form of unstable corruption. It was an element that was undiscovered and unknown by the inhabitants of Ring, and it was dangerous. The unknown entity soon latched onto the nobles’ ship, and it somehow began to seep inside. The nobles feared an infestation as the essence approached them; but suddenly, the unknown substance stopped moving altogether. With little time to lose, the nobles quickly grabbed it and trapped it inside a small, clear, cylinder container that was provided to them by BNC. Not knowing what it was, and fearing to report it to the OSOs at the time, the nobles contained the unknown specimen and transported it in secrecy back to Ring where they began to experiment on it and study it; little did they know that the essence was actually a living organism, a parasite in fact. This parasite would latch on to a host and would plaque the host until they were fully converted into a hideous fiend, soon to be called a Chaotic. Once the Host was a Chaotic, they merely needed to wound a victim to infect them as well. This infection spread throughout Ring rapidly, which would cause a war to emerge…
