Princess Laila and Prince Akuma are the result of something thought to be impossible.
In the land of Mysteria, everything is created by the heavenly gods from above. From the majestic dragons that live in the south, to the Snow Poppies that live in frigid temperatures.
The cherubs create new life whenever something dies. Most of the time, life is created before something dies. The strongest cherubs protect the queen from corrupted souls.
Imps, on the other hand reap souls of beings who have died, and take them to be judged by the king. If the souls our deemed pure, they will be reborn as an imp or a cherub. If a soul is deemed unpure, the soul will be reborn as a creature in Mysteria. However, is a soul is deemed dark and corrupted, it will be banished to a magic cell, where the soul will be put through living hell. Strong Imps protect the king from corrupted souls, and guard the cells where the corrupted souls resided.
The rulers of the gods are the Queen of Life, and the King of Death.
They fell in love.
And made something never thought to be possible.
They made a Prince and a Princess. Not just imp or cherub children born in heaven-there have been those before-but royal children! Royal children who are half imp and half cherub!
The imps and the cherubs celebrated these two children and all was well! Until.... the corrupted souls escaped...
They waged war on the cherubs and the imps. They took all the imps and cherubs they could get their hands on and trapped them in the living hell they were forced into.
Including the king and queen.
Luckily, most of the imps and cherubs had managed to escape.
Including Laila and Akuma.
Now the two must guide themselves through a world that's falling apart under the rule of the corrupted souls.
(Note: I will post the rules on the rp itself. Also, I know what imps and cherubs actually are, but in this world, there different. Both imps and cherubs live in heaven. And only the corrupted souls and some things in Mysteria are evil, but not imps. Really, the only reason it's not angels and devils is that's super over used.)
