Moribund

Moribund is a Dark Fantasy story worked on and being developed by 9. It was originally a Storyline, but after 2 failed attempts, 9 had decided to work on it as an individual project. 
== Premise ==
It's funny how fate works, doesn't it?
Moribund follows a young girl named Nyomi, venturing off into the world to rid herself from her past life, her home. As a result, she finds her way to the Grand Kingdom of Nosos, said to hold truths her late-grandma spoke of long ago. However, this Kingdom holds no elegance, safety or morality. For it's been plagued by an Infection for god knows how long, the King neglectful and the people split into two main districts. It's a dying land, many would say. It's main land dirty, filthy, hard to come by. and yet the people still make the most of it. The best they can, at least.
On her journey, Nyomi meets a plethora of interesting people that call this Kingdom home, some stick by closer than others, and some she had wished she never met in her life. Will Nyomi come out of this Kingdom alive and seek the answer her Grandmother foretold? Or will she succumb to the depths of Hell this Kingdom has crumbled into for decades upon decades?
=== Origins ===
Originally Moribund was considered a Storyline, developed and hosted by 9. However due to negative feedback and also the fact that 9 wasn't very good or experienced in hosting, and was more interested in telling an individual story than a collective one, it was rightfully cancelled. Twice.
After many puny attempts to suggest a revival, it was ultimately for naught. Determined to tell this story she so desperately wanted to show, she begun developing it as a Project ever since. 
== Characters ==
There are a big array of characters that call Nosos their home, or at least happened to visit, just like Nyomi.
* Nyomi
* Vivoro

== Places ==
=== Azurmilla Faction ===
Where 80% of the population reside. The place is neglected by the King and higher ups in general. Their homes rusted, and taxes high, the citizens make up what they can for quality of life. Due to their circumstances, the people here are rather closely knit, and help each other when they can. Suffering is frequent, and help from the higher ups is scarce, at the end of the day the only ones they have is eachother.
A very good majority of this land has been blocked off due to uncontrollable infection rates. They are safe.. for now, at least.
=== Chrysgold City ===
Where 28% of the population reside. The place is glamorous, bustling with sophistication and elegance. Truly you'd have to be the luckiest son of a gun to be at the safest distance from the infection, along with having a life of... well, you'd expect complete luxury. Matter of fact, the people where have their own issues to care of, mostly that many are not allowed to leave, and crime rates are exponentially high. Your money should not be where your wallet is, or else you can kiss it all goodbye.
Gambling Casinos are common, and visited. VERY often.
=== Floradescent Acreage ===
People often wonder where the source of food and materials come from. Well, that's where the off-distant farm land comes into play. It's the most isolated part of the Kingdom you'd come to, rural and wide. However maintaining crops and livestock has been all the more difficult over the decades. The dirt becoming hardened, the plants dying frequent, and the animals growing sick. Most of the materials are shipped off the wealthier side, after all, they payed more for it all. Most who live here are workers that keep at it day, and night, with usually little time for breaks.
It's often said people come here to run away from the Kingdom. It's unknown what happens to them, and the Farmers don't like speaking up.
=== Deadlands ===
Land that used to belong to the larger population has now been blocked off. This place is hidden by The Infection, left and right. With the air so poisoned, you couldn't breathe without your lungs beginning to collapse from simply being in it. Ridden with corpses, and those who refuse to die, this is truly a wasteland. Where the infected come to die, where the alive come to suffer. There's no cure to this Infection, and there's no known way to stop it. It keeps spreading.
And spreading fast.
=== The Waterways ===
Underneath the More Populated district holds a labyrinth of sewers and tunnels leading to all sorts of places. You can find plenty here, from abandoned items, dead bodies, people taking refuge and history lost to time. It's almost dangerously easy to get lost, considering how huge, and dark it is. It's not wise to traverse these sewers without proper preparation, or else you will become one of the many body counts this Kingdom has. 
=== Royal Solstice Gardens ===
Farther and deeper into the Wealthy district holds greens and botany more lively and cared for than any other place in the Kingdom. Only reserved for the elite, it's often said coming here boosts your morale and will. Air so fresh, you would want to stay here forever.
There is a statue of a Tall Man with shiny armor, believed to be The King's fallen Son.
=== Royal Solstice Castle ===
Not much is known about the Castle due to how secluded it is from the rest of the Kingdom. The farthest away from the struggle and anguish, whoever is inside may have never seen the rest of the Kingdom all their lives.
