Heart of the Unknown

[Focal]

Story: A young man who has no idea of who he is, where he was born, or even how old he is. But he will soon find out more than he'd prefer. For this boy, Tiro, has the Heart of the Unknown.

The Heart of the Unknown: This is a kind of virus, but is very rare, and can only be grasped by the ones with a mysterious past, such as Tiro's. But when Tiro finds out where he was born, he also finds out he has heart troubles. He thinks nothing of it, and decides to find out more. Day by day, Tiro discovers more, but loses more than he could possibly imagine: his very heart and soul. For once you've found out everything you need to, the Unkown will take over your heart. Forever.

Tiro's story: After Tiro finds out there's something wrong with him, he also decides to find out more about that. Especially after he lost control over his body, and when he regained it, he found himself holding a blood-stained sword, which was driven through his best friends heart. What might it have been that made Tiro regain self sense? The shock of this sight? Or is Tiro stronger than most people? He decides to find out (again). After many days of searching, he finally comes across something.

In a book? He reads about the Unknown in a book in the library in the city of Chanba on the continent of Maloran. He reads all about how it takes over your body the more you find out about yourself. After Tiro finished reading this, his eyes turned from brown, to a stone cold gaze, one that a demon might have. DarkTiro stands up, and slaughters everyone... on the continent...

DarkTiro: Now we know that the Unknown is more powerful than Tiro, it decides to start an organization, one proving that they are better than Ace/Lord Dakron, the Demon King. He founds the Chaos Alliance, and searches for many groups to join. He manages to get the Demon Executive that is currently working for Ace. He acts as a spy. Tiro also manages to get the Grim Reaper, but his loyalt lies with Ace. Tiro isn't too happy with this, and destroys him. Later, Tiro manages to take over many dark sides, such as Vampires, Orcs and the Undead.

Alex & Max: Two brothers who come from a long line of heroes. They were first sent out to save the crystals from destruction, form the Soul Crystal and restore world peace. Not long after that, they took on the quest of finding the Secret Prince before Ace got him. Once again, they succeeded. And now, this is their greatest challenge yet. Will they succeed? Or will they not be able to match DarkTiro's possible unlimited powers?

"Some day, Krono, this will all be over. Once Ace is defeated and sealed away for all eternity, you and your brother can take up the throne as rightful king and prince. But first, we still have to find Roland and Ace," said Hugh, and elderly, but very wise man.

"Yeah, but... what if Ace gets to him before we do? What will happen then?", asked Krono, brother of the Secret Prince, Roland.

"Do not worry about Ace for the moment. He is the least of our problems now. For I am sensing something far more dark... something more dangerous." Hugh said.

"Is that even possible!? I mean, Ace is the Demon King after all. He even rose from the dead!" yelled Krono, kind of surprised by Hugh's thoughts about Ace.

"Sigh... that may be the case... but what I am sensing, if I'm right about what it is, we are in grave danger. Not even Ace can stand up to this, Krono, and I am not underestimating Ace's powers! I don't even think that all of our strength's combined could take on this threat..."

"But, Master, what is this threat?" asked Krono.

*Hugh sighed*

<I wish I could tell you Krono, but I don't want to worry you,> thought Hugh.

"Krono... all in good time, boy... all in good time..."

On a different part of Shiyara, in the continent of Maloran, a tournament is being held. The Heroes Brawl is a tournament that is held once every three years, and it decides who will be the Champion of Maloran, and be crowned as the hero who will protect Maloran against evil. Everyone tournament, many people enter, thinking that they have what it takes to become the righteous hero. Many of the newcomers fail, and only one man has succeeded in becoming the Champion in his first tournament.
This man's name is Tiro, and he has been Champion three times in a row, and is now entering in his fourth tournament. He has been the protector of Maloran for nine years, and is ready for another three. Although he is still very young (for Tiro is only twenty-seven), he is extremely skilled, and has saved Maloran from many creatures. Now, back to the tournament.
Once again, Tiro managed to get to the finals without much trouble, but the same counts for his opponent. Sally, a tough women of twenty-two, is trying to prove that not only men can protect an entire continent.
Tiro believes it's a fine goal, but isn't prepared to lose.
The battle begins, and ends quickly. The crowd isn't too pleased, but they are glad that at least someone they trust and know will still protect them.
"You're not too bad, Sally, but you should know that I'm too strong for anyone here. I don't mean to brag or anything..." Tiro said.
"It's all right, at least I made my point. Good fight, Tiro."
"TIRO, WE NEED YOUR HELP!"
Tiro quickly turned around, and was gone in a flash.
He found a trail of bodies, not dead luckilly, and was able to track down the person who had screamed.
"What's wrong?" Tiro asked.
"A band of Skeleton's attacked us... we would have driven them away our selves, but these weren't lower Skeletons, these were Skeleton Mages, and the high ranked slayers!"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of them."
Tiro headed out towards the east, where the Skeletons were supposed to be heading...
