The Dark Zone
Within a Dimension of strange Laws, Lies the World of Ruin. The World of Ruin is where the Nine Gods created Dungeons for those who were Banished from their Dimensions due to their Evil deeds and were forced to live within the Dungeons. However, Some have recently found a way to Escape. These people formed an organization known as the Ministry of Ruin, and control the Dimension of Ruin. Ruin is the strongest made Material in the Dimensions, and Cannot be destroyed. However, Light Ruinite can be molded. It is still a thick Material and is not easily Shaped. When Heated, it solidifies.
The Dark Zone is the Small plateau where Warriors such as yourself enter the World to access the Dungeons and Defeat the Ministry of Ruin's Soldiers. In these places, you will fight countless Beasts. Every Ten Floors, you will fight a Dimension Champion, Or some sort of Beasts evolved into a Higher form from it's way in the real world. The Ministry of Ruin is lead by an unknown source, and the members range from 1 - 9. 1 Being the weakest, 9 being the strongest.
To enter, you Probably discovered a Blitz Portal in the Land. There are Nine of these Portals.
You can come back with a Group of Five People and begin your descent within the Dungeons. The reason for this is the GateKeeper, a strange man in a Black Cloak, His appearance completely hidden by shadows. he might not even be Alive. There is No data on what he is or what he can do, but We assume he controls the Closed Spaces. He will tell you that you are limited to a group of five people Only, and if you defy him then you might be in for some Hell.
The Dark Zone is the HUB, Where you arrive. You will Post in this thread when you appear here.
The Dark Zone is a strange Circular Platform that has a large hole in the center. The hole within the center goes down and down. it is Unknown what is down there. There are Nine portals, each aligned next to one-another on the farthest side away from a strange Obelisk on the Northern-most part of the Circular platform. There is also a cloaked man, which is obviously the gatekeeper. The Gatekeeper will instruct you on how to begin your journey if you ask him and have a group ready.
There is a Wide assortment of strange Orbs floating around the Obelisk. Touching the Orb will bring you to a Closed Space, Or a Dimensional Plain in the World where you can only meet people it assigns to it. If you have a Party Already Assigned, you are welcomed to go on. Remember, If you die here in Ruin, your soul will be consumed by Ruin, and you will Reincarnate as Yourself, but You will have No Mind for yourself, and You will have to fight your Old Friends Once, before they move on. Once they Kill you, Your soul will go to the Celestial Plains. If Your Friends Die, you will all become Ruined Souls and must fight those who come nearby the Plains until you die. Your powers are Halved once becoming a Ruined Soul.
There is No possible way to save your friends if they die. If you are Already Undead, or are a User of Magic, This place will take a Large toll on your energy. You can still become a Ruined Soul Either way. No Matter what you are, there is a High Risk of Death.
Level Laws - You will be Unable to progress until a Certain Quota of Monsters have been slain. However, Each monster in the Ruined World is Much stronger than in the Real World, and there is a Limit to how many people can enter the Dungeons at a time. Five People per Space. There are Two Spaces. Those who cannot go must await the return of another group here at the Dark Zone until a Group returns. When a Group Returns, Another group can start their adventure. The Relaxing Group can continue where they left off if they reach an Obelisk Orb, But those who have not touched the Orb themselves cannot. (Please Note that You Cannot attempt to return if the two Closed Spaces are Taken. You will be Notified By Post when a Space is Opened.)
Magic Laws - Magic Abilities are More Costly, and take a toll on your Mental State if Over-used. Be Fore-Warned, As Magic Overuse is a possible Character Downfall. if you have No Mental Control, you might kill yourself or your allies. Advanced Magic skills will become more Unstable if your mind begins to deteriorate due to excess Magic Usage. This Means that you might injure yourself or others if it comes to that.
Undead And Inanimate Laws - Exerting too much energy will slowly turn you into a Ruined Soul, and you will eventually fall to Ruin and attack your friends, Trying to destroy them. You cannot revert, As those are the laws of Ruin. Once you are slain in Ruin after being a Ruined soul, You will go to Limbo.

Kyumi stepped through the portal and from there shifted to her humanoid form as she looked around the strange plateau. "A strange place this is." She did not stray far from the entrance, however she did remain alert and watched out for danger as she waited for the others. Any differences she had with Prophet she would leave outside the portal, this was business and it was time to get to work.

Ariana followed through immdeiately and now landed holding her bow to the ready and began to walk forward, studying the area they were in and take in all the details, she did not turn her back on whatever lies before them, for the portal was the only thing behind her and even if something did try Kyumi and soon Prophet would be there as well. "I have never seen such a strange place as this." And it wasn't just that, she felt strange herself but she didn't know why.

"Ah! Visitors!" a Voice would have said, As a Cloaked Man would slowly fade into a solid form, Right infront of the two.

"Welcome to Your Damnation." The man would have said. He then hovered across the ground to get closer to the two. The Man's Voice sounded like there were two people speaking, One normal and the other with a very deep voice. They spoke at the same time when The man said anything. Perhaps this was just the way he sounded. "My, My. I sense some Interesting Power emanating from you both." He'd of said, then suddenly he'd of disappeared and reappeared next to Kyumi. "Perhaps this time, Ruin will have a true challenge." He said, then disappeared again and was next to Ariana. "Unless you are both don't have any others allies, That is."
"I am the Gatekeeper of This Dimension, and I hope you enjoyed fighting those little Ruin Riparaptors... Hehehe..."

"Well, I did." A voice said. Prophet then decloaked, appearing out of nowhere behind the two. "And, I'll enjoy kicking your arse, then mounting your head on my trophy wall when we're done with you." Prophet growled, his eyes glowing red, showing through his visor, making him look deadly. "Oh, I'll enjoy killing you. I'll make sure that this place will be your grave." Prophet said, aiming his bow and arrow at the man, red flames protruding from the arrow.

Thee Cloaked man snickered. "Those Raptors were to see if You could manage. However, The Zyrudian came on it's own terms," He'd of said, as he disappeared and Re-appeared next to Prophet. "And if you think you can kill me, You are incredibly Mistaken. I am warning you now, Strike me even once and You won't live. I am the Gatekeeper of Ruin, Which means that I control who enters. if you cannot follow the Laws of Ruin, You will be killed. If you Disrespect the one who is suppose to Guard these Laws, You will be Killed." The Man said, Snickering. "I only give single warnings. Don't fire the Arrow or I will Erase you from this Dimension. The Arrow won't even injure me, so you'd be wasting your time. Is it worth dying over that?"

Prophet put his arrows back, but, he didn't lower his guard. His bow was put back aswell. "Alright. Seems I've actually met my match for the tenth time in my life. So, where exactly are we in the Ruin?" Prophet said, then he looked at the gatekeeper. "Because, I don't exactly have a map to help me around here." Prophet said, unfazed by the Gatekeeper's threat, as if he knew what to do instead of attacking.

Instead of Mocking Prophet for Backing down like many other would, He nodded and began to answer His questions. "You are in the Dark Zone. The General Relaxation Zone of Ruin. When you start your travels through the many Floors to reach the Final Boss of Ruin, You will probably find some puzzles or other Relaxation rooms." He'd of said, as He stuck his arm out ans snapped his fingers. The Man's Arms were Red, and his Finger nails were black and sharp. He had Tattoos on the sides of his arm, They were like Black Stripes. When he snapped his fingers, a strange scroll would have appeared in the air and floated. The Cloaked man gestured for Prophet to take the scroll.

Prophet nodded, then looked at Kyumi and Ariana. "Alright, so we have to go to the last floor. There, we'll come back and get the others." Prophet said, taking in all the information. Prophet walked towards the scroll, then grabbed it. "Thank you Gatekeeper. We owe you our thanks." Prophet said, bowing his head a bit. He then turned to the other two. "We better hurry before we're declared dead." Prophet said, scanning the scroll.

The Man laughed loudly. "Get to the Last floor? Ahahahahahaha!" The man said, laughing much harder. "Do you honestly think you have a chance passing even floor 10?" He'd of said, Disappearing and Re-appearing. "In order to Progress, a certain quota of Monsters are to be slain. Not only that, but every-so-often, a Large Quantity of Big Monsters would be a threat to anyone trying to pass Floor Thirty. Ruin is a Place designed by The Destroyer to keep out those who desire to interfere with his plans on Returning to your world so he can destroy The Creator and finally take over. Once you reach the final floor, You'll find him. However... This range of time will take perhaps over a Month or maybe more. Depends on the power of the Warriors. Ruin is Not a place for fools." He'd of said, then he gasped. "My Apologies, I was holding that in for a large amount of time... Let me give you a Piece of advice; Come back when you have Stronger members with you." And with that, the Gatekeeper waited for their response.
The Scroll contained the laws of Ruin and the instructions on how to begin your trek through the Dimension.

Prophet smiled at the Gatekeeper. "Well, I guess I'll be having some fun." Prophet said, cracking his knuckles. He was about to go, but he stopped then pulled his bow and arrows out. "You two go get the others inform them at once. I'll make sure no monsters pass this point without a arrow in 'em." Prophet said, kneeling down, aiming his arrow ahead. "You waiting for a formal invitation fancy pants, or are you going to stand there all day, making our team wait?" Prophet asked, not taking his eyes away from his bow and arrow.

Dark Lord Helious "If you plan on Starting your adventure through Ruin, You must bring, at least, Four people. Five People is Maximum. Do you Understand why?" He'd of asked, as he eyed Prophet with little interest. "Wait, you said there were others? Excellent. I do hope you'll bring them in. The Dark Zone is a Peaceful place. Well, It is now."

"Teamwork is needed for the Ruin. Without it, you'd die easily. With a group, you'd be able to have someone watch your back and help defend others easily." Prophet said, looking at the Gatekeeper. "No, I don't know why you only need five people." Prophet said, his eyes glowing golden for a second, then back to forest green.

"Four People are needed to solve Puzzles within the Ruin. Protocols request a limit of Five People per Closed Space. Sadly, Damascus could only create two spaces, so that means Ten Warriors can travel Ruin. However, This doesn't mean they'll be able to Intertwine with one-another in these closed spaces. You won't be able to leave Either unless you find a Return Stone or an obelisk with orbs like those." He'd say, gesturing to the ones all around. "Five People is just an easier way to bring in more people and limit those able to progress. Consider it to be one of those... What are they called... Role-Play Games...? Games Children play nowadays that they pretend to be things. Quite Creative. The Only difference is, You will actually Die, and You aren't pretending. Well, Some aren't. Hehehe."(Haha, See what I did there?)

((That was funny)) Prophet looked at the orbs, getting an idea. "Hey, if I went off a retrieved two orbs, wouldn't that means these two could go?" Prophet asked, looking at the Gatekeeper. "And, everyone dies in everyday life. I have to die eventually. Might aswell let it be as saving the world while dying. And, I'd do it with honor. Tell me where the closest orbs are, and I'll get them." Prophet said, looking at the Gatekeeper. Prophet smiled sadly. "I'd rather die then let the whole world die." Prophet said, looking down at the floor.
