Sovereign of Eternal Night
Before the first divine light was lit, there was darkness. Not evil — primordial. The God of Darkness governed what existed before the gods built their hierarchy on top of it. When he found the Primordial Void Stone, an artifact containing the raw energy of existence-before-creation, six gods and the Moon God moved together and killed him mid-cultivation. They called it righteous. It was fear. His soul did not die. It descended — reborn into the body of Mo Tianyin, a nameless outer disciple in the Frost Moon Sect, one of hundreds of sects under the Moon God's vast domain. He has no divine power. He has no status. He has a darkness older than heaven buried in his bones, a shadow cultivation path no divine instrument can read, and a list of seven names. He is in no hurry. He has been in the dark before. He knows how to wait.
