For the past 10,000 years, the Suralis Empire has stood as a beacon of power and authority under Lumen's Will—a divine decree binding all beings to the laws of God's Heir. At the heart of this empire reigns the Amrayana Royal Family, chosen to uphold the divine order and govern humanity. With human lifespans stretching from 100 to 300 years, the current monarch, King Agastya Amrayana, is the 51st ruler of this ancient dynasty.
A kind and benevolent sovereign, King Agastya is also a Golden Tree of Light, a mark of divine favour shared by the generations of Amrayana rulers. This spiritual gift directly connects to Lumen's Will, granting him powerful divine authority. However, it also leaves him vulnerable to political pressure.
The noble houses—ambitious and ever-hungry for influence—seek to bind their bloodlines to the royal family. Their ambitions rest heavily on the king's second daughter, Charuvisha Amrayana, whose future has been entangled in a political web since birth.
From the moment she was born, Charuvisha was destined to carry the empire's heaviest burden. Bound by a centuries-old pact, she is promised marriage to the Vampire Royal Family—a union to uphold the peace between humans and the supernatural.
This arrangement dates back to a rebellion led by the former regal queen's brother, the former Duke of the Eastern Forces. His betrayal shook the empire to its core, and it was only through the intervention of the Vampire King that the rebellion was crushed. In return, the vampire ruler demanded a human princess for his heir, forging a bond the empire couldn't break.
Despite the weight of her duty, Charuvisha is more than a political pawn. She is poised, intelligent, and fiercely devoted to the empire's future. Her every action is shaped by the knowledge that the empire's survival depends on her ability to navigate the treacherous world of politics and power. As the favoured disciple of the High Priest, Her abilities grant her mastery over earthly affairs and a profound connection to the divine realm.
Divine Radiance- Charuvisha can emit a holy light from her body that purifies corruption, repels dark forces, and strengthens allies. When activated, this radiance can create an area of divine protection, making it difficult for weaker enemies or demonic creatures to even stand in her presence. At its highest form, Divine Radiance allows her to manifest wings of light, granting her unlimited flight and increased divine power.
Celestial Ward- A divine shield that automatically activates when Charuvisha is in danger. This shield absorbs and reflects magic-based attacks and significantly weakens physical blows. It can be extended to protect others, forming a luminous barrier around an entire group or structure. If the shield is shattered, it releases a powerful shockwave of divine force, knocking back enemies and disorienting them.
Luminous Command- As the heir of the Lumen Empire, Charuvisha can invoke the authority of the Will of Light, allowing her to command lesser light-based entities, temple warriors, and spirit-bound protectors. This ability allows her to awaken latent power in allies, amplifying their strength, endurance, and magical abilities for a limited time. It also grants her the power to seal dark entities, imprisoning them within sacred symbols or relics.
Seraphic Call- A prayer-based ability that allows Charuvisha to summon celestial messengers or divine beings to aid her in battle. These summoned beings vary in strength, from small orbs of guiding light to full-fledged Seraphic warriors depending on the urgency of the battle. The call can also cleanse demonic possession, forcing out corrupting forces from afflicted individuals.
Solar Judgement- A high-level divine technique where Charuvisha channels the sun's full power into a devastating attack. When activated, the sky above her burns with celestial flames, and a golden spear of light forms in her hand. The spear can be thrown with unerring precision, piercing through even the most substantial dark barriers. Upon impact, it explodes into purifying flames, reducing cursed creatures or demonic beings to ashes.
Ethereal Purge- A powerful exorcism technique that banishes dark spirits, curses, and soul corruption. When activated, Charuvisha can channel the Lumen Empire's holy energy into a crescent-shaped wave of golden fire, cutting through unnatural forces. If used at full power, this technique can purge entire battlefields of undead, demon-spawn, or abyssal entities.
Divine Insight- As a disciple of the High Priest, Charuvisha has been granted the ability to see through falsehoods, illusions, and hidden dangers. Her eyes can perceive the true nature of people and spirits, allowing her to recognize disguised enemies, detect corruption in others, and even foresee glimpses of possible future events. This ability also enables her to read ancient celestial scripts and unlock forbidden knowledge passed down by the divine.
Seraphis, The Luminous Guardian is the Spirit of Divine Light and Protection. His Abilities allow him to protect Charvi. Holy Aegis creates an unbreakable shield of divine light that protects against all dark magic and spiritual corruption. Purification Surge allows him to emit a wave of celestial energy that heals allies and burns away any taint of darkness. Celestial Dominion Grants Charvi the ability to temporarily wield the full might of a divine guardian, allowing her to unleash ultimate purification attacks and drive back abyssal forces. These abilities imbue Charvi with celestial energy, truth-seeing eyes, and powerful purification techniques.
She is considered the strongest human-born wielder of divine light in her generation. Her powers are not just for combat but also for leadership, diplomacy, and maintaining divine order within the empire. Beneath her calm exterior lies a heart burdened by the knowledge that her fate is not hers. But she has never let that bind her heart. She is fearless, open-minded, and deeply devoted to her empire and its people. She follows her heart unwaveringly and remains true to her conscience.
Traditionally, the empire's throne would pass to the eldest child, but Vishrayan Amrayana, or Veyan, has openly rejected his inheritance. As the firstborn, Veyan is expected to lead, but his free-spirited nature and penchant for indulgence make him an unsuitable heir. His defiance makes Charuvisha the next in line to ascend the throne.
Among King Agastya's five children, each holds a unique place within the royal hierarchy:
Vishrayan Amrayana (Veyan) – The eldest son, whose disinterest in the throne masks an exceptional intelligence and an uncanny ability to manipulate the court's politics. Though he appears to be a carefree playboy, he is faithful to his family and is known to protect his siblings from the shadows.
Charuvisha Amrayana (Charvi) – The second child and official heir, known for her composure, sharp intellect, and unwavering sense of duty. She is the most politically valuable royal family member, and her future marriage to the vampire prince is a crucial safeguard against rebellion.
Saryavisha Amrayana (Sarya) – The third child, a warrior princess who thrives on the battlefield. Fearless and fiercely protective of Charuvisha, she rejects the court's politics and believes the empire's strength is forged in war. She is the only royal sibling who openly defies the vampire marriage pact.
Yugavisha Amrayana (Yureon) – The fourth child, a gifted healer with a profound connection to the divine. As a potential heir, he is meticulously trained by the Royal Teacher. Despite his gentle nature, Yureon possesses an iron will and is rumoured to have inherited powers beyond ordinary humans.
Amritvisha Amrayana (Amrisa) – The youngest, a teenage prodigy in music and prayer, said to have a voice so pure that it echoes through the divine realms. She is a devout follower of Lumen's Will and is considered a blessing to the royal family. Though quiet and gentle, her insight often surprises those around her. She is also playful and spirited in front of her siblings. Being the youngest, she jests and frolickers around her family but becomes reserved and a different individual among the crowd.
Despite their royal privilege, all five children are raised under the watchful guidance of Queen Samaira Amrayana, a woman of humble but artistic origins who holds the prestigious title of Royal Poet. Her journey to the throne began with a single performance—an ethereal hymn that moved the heavens and captivated King Agastya's heart. Though she is not of noble birth, her mastery of the Four Arts of Divinity is unmatched, and her wisdom shapes the moral compass of the royal household.
Queen Samaira's love extends beyond her biological children. The two youngest, Yureon and Amrisa, were adopted after the death of the king's second brother. Despite their adoption, she raises them as her own, ensuring they are equally prepared to bear the empire's responsibilities. Her unwavering sense of justice and discipline has cultivated a deep loyalty within the royal household.
The Royal Teacher, the king's fourth brother, oversees the education and spiritual development of the royal heirs. As the second most influential figure in the empire, he holds the power to shape its future. His teachings emphasize academic mastery and moral discipline, ensuring the Amrayana children are prepared for their divine duty. With four children, his bloodline remains deeply entwined with the empire's fate.
His eldest daughter serves as Charuvisha's aide, a position of immense trust and responsibility.
His three sons fight alongside Sarya on the frontlines, earning a reputation for their fearlessness and loyalty.
The king's third brother governs as Duke of the Southern Forces. Though apathetic to the throne's politics, his two sons remain Veyan's closest confidants, supporting him despite his rejection of royal responsibility.
The royal family is known for their unity and dominance over the largest part of the continent. It is the nearest to the Temple of Divinity. The royal family has always been the epicentre of political and spiritual conflicts along with the source of knowledge and expansion of critical change in the entire continent.
It has been a vital source of power towards the divinity thanks to the largest amount of followers of the Lumen's Will being Humans. Humans have been the largest and the most important part of the divine will as they are the ones who strive for protection and devotion from the Divinity.
Rumours whisper that only The Lumen Spirit, a prophesied figure, can unlock the Pillar's true power—but no heir has emerged in over 5,000 years.
Yet the empire's stability is fragile. The eastern rebellion simmers beneath the surface, and many question whether the vampire pact will truly secure peace—or hasten the empire's downfall.
As supernatural forces stir and ancient prophecies foretell the rise of salvation and destruction, the Amrayana family must navigate a world where loyalty is fleeting and power comes at a price.
In the midst of it all stands Charuvisha Amrayana—a princess destined to unite the realms or shatter the empire's fragile peace.
