Stratum II:
Fields of Fasting

Shadowverse Antemaria, the leader of a band of thieves, once plundered side by side with her close friend,
Normagdala. They were perfect partners who covered for each other's weaknesses—
until a botched operation drove them apart.
Now, imprisoned in Azvaldt, Antemaria plots a jailbreak to win her best friend back.
Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond Standing in her way is the enforcer Drazael—her partner, Normagdala,
transformed by a curse. Though freed from the curse, Normagdala continues to oppose Antemaria,
determined to free her from all of her remaining weaknesses.

    Ripper-Clawed Thief (unevolved)

    "Let's fly!" My world was the skies and the girl who led me to soar beyond them. We were rising flames under a shrinking canopy, whose blazing dawn was the abyss that consumed our naivete. And the fate of the masses was to be pierced by that shackled girl.

    Dragoncraft

    Ripper-Clawed Thief (evolved)

    I was the brains and she the brawn, but I regarded myself to be a part of her. We'd ambush prey, fly through the alleys, and reunite to huddle together in the cold. And in our little corner of the ruins, our shackles would rattle as we enjoy our delicious, sinful spoils.

  2. Dragoncraft

    High-Spirited Marauder (unevolved)

    That girl was already perfect. Her emptiness was proof she was complete. But she was sensitive and shy, so she pretended she was broken to find friends. My sin was falling for her outstretched hand.

    Dragoncraft

    High-Spirited Marauder (evolved)

    In breaking and taking did the girl find a group. But that same group became a burden. As we walked down the corridor, she matched my stride. In the setting sun, her shadow sidled next to mine, and the hand that once guided me was nowhere to be found.

    Parting Jaws

    "Should we turn left here?"
    "You should, Maria. I'll go right."
    "Aren't you the guide?"
    "That ends today."
    "What... do you mean? We've got a good thing going—"
    "We need to split up. So go. Run, Antemaria!"
  4. Dragoncraft

    Barren-Earth Tyrant (unevolved)

    "I've found our next target—a scheming lowlife who can do nothing but deceive and leech from others. It will be a bit of a gamble, so we'll need to catch them off guard. We can do anything as long as we're together? ...If you say so, Maria."

    Dragoncraft

    Barren-Earth Tyrant (evolved)

    The attack failed, just as planned. Now all that's left is for you to lose everything. Good bye, Maria. Shed all your burdens, including me. Free yourself from your shackles and soar as high as you could've without us.

  5. Dragoncraft

    Artiglio

    "You could have flown better alone. I dragged you down."
    "What are you on about? I alone decide what burdens me."
    "It was your decision that caused this. Your stupidity is unforgivable."
    "...Alright. If you want to be pierced so bad, I'll fulfill your wish."
  6. Dragoncraft

    Antemaria, Piercing Convict (unevolved)

    Why are we taking things? What's in my way? Don't know and don't care. All I have to do is crush and pierce; you're in charge of the thinking. Your sights have always been set on the skies, after all.
    Dragoncraft

    Antemaria, Piercing Convict (evolved)

    You and I are two halves of a whole—jaws that were meant to swallow the world whole. But you thought that was a burden to me, and tried to take it from me. Who are you to speak for me? Even apart, we're one and the same, and I'll never let go.
    "Dig into her, Artiglio!"
  7. Dragoncraft

    Normagdala, Ravening Revenant (unevolved)

    We must go our separate ways. This is our punishment for the thoughtless actions of that girl who encumbered herself with friends. But don't worry, I'll shatter your shackles. I'll incinerate all the chaff weighing down your wings so that you can finally soar.
    Dragoncraft

    Normagdala, Ravening Revenant (evolved)

    You know what you did was wrong, so I'll take everything from you with fire and fang. You'll have nothing but your foolish flames, just like that fateful day. And once all your burdens have been consumed in a blaze of shame, where will your gaze fall?
    "Burn it all down, Scorno."
