A History Lesson
When the war started in the other dimension, no one believed it would affect them in their own dimension. They were all so wrong.

Have you ever watched something – an animated show or movie- and wondered what it’d be like if it was real? Believe it of not they are. In a different realm, at least. For everything animated there is a realm where these “characters” you’ve followed through so many adventures reside. In one realm they all mash together. All dimensions need a name, and this one was appropriately named the Anime Colliding Network (Or in short A.C.N.).
There are five major cities within the realm’s boundaries: Asbed, the incaved city to the East; Zadinea, the ocean-bound city to the South; Baken Duras, the snow city to the North; Mycen, the demon’s desert city to the West; and Vamosin Centralise, the largest cit located in the middle of the other four. Vamosin Centralise is the center of just about everything that goes on within the realm, including the building which houses all the portals to the other realms.
Each realm has their own legends and myths, but one legend remains constant throughout all the realms; how Lucifer fell from the Heavens and the beginning of Hell (whether Demons and Angels are present or not).
When Lucifer fell from the Heavenly Realm into the plane below, to forever live among mortals, he found it unacceptable. He heard of a third realm, far beneath the ground of Earth, impossible to get to except in death. Yet Lucifer was beyond death, and he would make that land his own. There were many creatures within the mortal land unknown to God; creatures of ill-intent and murderous thoughts. Demons they were, as the first fallen named them. He gathered an army of the deadly things to help his preliminary goal into the lower level. As Lucifer anticipated, the grim, fiery realm was already inhabited by beings known today as “vampires”. However, that is a different war meant for a different time. As Lucifer’s demonic army conquered, their new home was dubbed the Hellion Realm.
Heavenly and Hellion creatures are not bound to their realms, and so were able to cross into the human plane freely, becoming common among the Mortals. Although God paid no heed to these crossings, Lucifer paid close attention. ‘All I need,’ he said one day, ‘is a reason to pick a fight.’
After many years, two of Lucifer’s strongest demons (dubbed Hellions after their new realm) brought him something- someone- very powerful. An Oracle. The old woman gave Lucifer a prophecy, one which put a wicked grin upon his face:
‘One from Above
One from Below
A forbidden love and war follow
One to rise and win the fight
Rise to have all three light’
Lucifer knew just what this meant. For as long as they have been around, both the Angels and the Demons have had their own rules to follow. One of the “forbidden”, with the punishment attached severe, was to fall in love with one of the other kind. His grin widening, Lucifer ordered the Oracle locked away somewhere no one would find. To the remaining Hellions in his court he mused, ‘If this is true then I’ll await these two fools to come. They’ll start the war in which I’ll win and rule.’”
And so it came. A demon and Saint fell in love and war erupted in the realm with Earth. However, all the realms share a connection to the one and only Heavenly and Hellion realms and the demons in all realms caught whiff of the fighting. Wars broke out in which both species resided, causing the deaths of many innocents in the crossfire. A.C.N. was no different and only a few of us remain, hidden underground in army compounds. But those of them who survived hope to end the war ourselves for good. This is the tale of one girl and her companions, traveling to defeat the ruler of Hell and return their world to peace.
