=== The Beginning ===
==== Ancient History ====
Back in the ye old days of, like a long ass time ago, three deities were... like just popped into existence, Erythos, Luiren, and Kaedras. These three would go on to be rulers of the three otherworldly realms, Hell, Heaven, and Purgatory respectively. Eventually, humanity was born, and the world grew. Early on in human existence, the deities were not a secret, and were worshipped and respected, even visiting the mortal realm occasionally. However, upset with the fact that dark magic users were cursed to hell, an ideology was created. This grew into a full on cult dedicated to eliminating the deities for their own selfish interests, under the guise that the deities were “not fair”. Using unknown power, a staff was created and imbued with the power to kill the immortal, and an all-out war was waged. However, the deities were able to defeat the opposing side and seized the staff. The Drewitts played a major role in the deities, especially Erythos, winning the war, and as a result, were blessed by Erythos. The staff was then dismantled, and the gemstone containing the god-killing power shattered. The Drewitts were given the shards, which were then melded into amulets that gave them great power. Afterwards, not wanting to have the chance to be threatened again, the deities decided to go into hiding, and were eventually forgotten. The only people that remember the deities are historians, who see the deities as old folktale, and the blessed, like the Drewitts, who know the truth.
After the deities left, it was decided that a new time system should be in place, thus creating AD, after divergence. Anything before that date would be BD, before divergence.
==== Whitefall ====
Some time later, human civilization would progress further, and nations and such would be created. Eventually, the entire continent would fall under rule of one kingdom, Whitefall. This kingdom was formed when a mountainous avalanche from a cliff created a section in the middle of the continent that was perfect for a nation. Eventually, the kingdom would be split into 7 distinct districts and therefore regions, Caelholdt, Halmir, Kaelian, Niah, Treka, Tolkein, and most importantly, The Capitol. These districts each became their own distinct places, especially due to the geography of where each district was. However, despite their differences, they were all ruled under one nation, and were each given rulers of their own to act as a sub-government for the main government in the Capitol. Later, the districts were further diversified by terraforming by the elements that took home in them and the culture that inhabited there. 
=== Past ===
==== Dewitts ====
Blake Drewitt, born 13XX, is the earliest ancestor of the Drewitts we know by name. In either his teens or early adulthood, he once had a boyfriend. However, unfortunately, his boyfriend soon passed away, and Blake was left without a partner. Because of the status of the world, he was eventually forced into a marriage with Agnes (last name). They wouldn’t have the best of relationships, but they did go on to have three children. A pair of twins, Mace and Luna, and another one 5 years later, Adelaine. Not much is known about their childhood, but they were all branded, a Drewitt tradition, around age 18. 
At age 18, Mace was kidnapped and tortured. However, because of his specialty, he was able to be freed by some roaches that were in the room he was kept in. To cope, he turned to using sex, whoring himself out. Mace would end up meeting Lola Sucrox, and they became friends with benefits. This would end with her getting pregnant and having Indigo at age 19. 
At around 20 years old, Luna would meet Atticus Beri, and they began dating. Eventually, Luna would end up pregnant and ended up having Asher. Sadly, Asher would never end up meeting his dad, as Agnes would end up killing Atticus using her specialty, mind control. Her exact motivation is unclear, but one of her reasoning was that Atticus was "muddying up" the bloodline since he was a non-magic user. Luna quickly learned that Agnes was the culprit, and because of that Agnes put a curse on every Drewitt so she would avoid punishment. This curse forced anyone who dared to speak of her actions to not be able to say anything, including writing or sign language. 
Three years later, 17 year old Adelaine begins dating Jake Brill. He ends up being really toxic and weird towards her, constantly asking for things that Adelaine wasn’t comfortable with, especially since Jake was 19. 4 months in, Jake would ask her to have sex, and when she denied, he forced himself on her and raped her. She would end up getting pregnant from this, and their relationship would be broken off. A little while later, she would meet Nadia Damaris, and they would bond instantly, and began dating soon after. Adelaine would give birth to Lumiere after that. 
==== Tolkeins ====
Aether Tolkein lived a rather normal first years of life as royalty alongside his siblings Wolfe and Elaina, and his parents, Emmerick and Nova. However, at age 10, light users Marune and Sepherine, who were simple bodyguards for the Tolkein family, were fed up with the royals for a few reasons, and found structural flaws in the architecture of Tolkein Castle and collapsed it, killing all but Aether who managed to make it out alive. Because there were no more heirs to the throne of Tolkein District, Aether became the sole ruler of the entirety of the district. As per tradition, he was assigned a bodyguard, and requested a Drewitt specifically. He was granted Lumiere, who was exceptional at dark magic and around the same age as him, and they would become enchanted with one another.
==== Rhailliope ====
During a dragon infestation, Rhain Keenfollower, knight of Lloros Whitefall and friends with benefits, is assigned to Halmir District to slay the dragons in the infestation. This did traumatize him, as he is a dragon himself who has a human form. During his stay, he met Calliope Rossingol, and he was smitten. The last night of his stay, he snuck out and was caught by her, and once she learned the truth of who Rhain was and the fact that he was in love with her, she decided to say yes, and they became partners.
==== Executioner ====
During their time as a bodyguard, Lumiere would go through many situations that would put their mental or physical health at risk. One such example was when they were summoned to help assist with a rampaging poison dragon, in which they were wounded so badly they nearly lost their life. During their recovery, Blake would end up passing away. This would put the whole Drewitt family into a state of mourning, not only because they had lost Blake, but because he was the only one preventing Agnes from being a rude bitch. 
However, on the bright side, during a royal ball, they met Calliope, and they became friends soon after, partially because Calliope was unable to discern if Lumiere was a boy or a girl, making Lumiere feel a bit better that their gender was being affirmed.
Sometime after they turned 11, Lumiere was contacted by Tirian Hale, a stage master who ran executions. He offered them a position as an executioner, as they were both a dark magic user and exceptionally powerful. They declined, stating personal preference as they do not wish to kill, but Tirian made another offer. They could instead, torture the convicts and when the time came, and actual executioner would come out and kill the convict. Lumiere then agreed and signed a contract to be employed. Their first time, they did the thing, using a torture method where they used strings from their fingertips to puppet the convict. There was supposed to be a sign stating when the torture would stop, but it never came. Lumiere unfortunately had to kill the convict, and despite their protests, since they were under contract, they proceeded to do this 252 more times over the span of two years, with the last one being their own biological father, Jake. That day, they broke down in tears, and Aether comforted them. A few moments later, someone named Kirei Costello would come in. They were originally meant to be colleges, but Lumiere used this as a opportunity to quit.
=== Present/Pre-Timeskip ===
==== Featured In The Webtoon ====
During a fight with a slime creature, defending Aether in the process, Lumiere kills their hundredth monster. Because of this, they take a day off of their bodyguard duties and get branded by Agnes. 
A few weeks later, Lumiere goes to the market in Halmir to buy Aether a specific type of ink, and end up running into Calliope and they chat.
Later, Aether has an early morning meeting with the court. As they’re both waking up, Rhain shows up and asks Lumiere to go water succubus fighting with him, as there’s an infestation of them on the beach. Aether and Lumiere go their separate ways, Lumiere and Rhain killing water succubi while Aether has a meeting. In the meeting, it turns out that the court is being invited to a mandatory royal ball, and each member can bring a plus one. Rhain and Lumiere finish their fighting, and Lumiere manages to snag a water succubus heart. Back at Tolkein Castle, Aether invites Lumiere to be his plus one at the Ball, but they have to “get back in the closet” and be platonic. They suffer through the ball, and when the king falls asleep, they go to Galion’s place and have a blast, but end up drunk and have to be brought back to Tolkein Castle by Kiyo. 
Hungover after the ball, Lumiere and Aether were interrupted by Lumiere’s cousin, Indigo and her girlfriend Violet Castillo. Violet was severely wounded, and with some help, she was back to health, in the process the two figuring out that Lumiere and Aether were dating. It turns out she was attacked by Indigo’s mom, Lola Sucrox. They eventually found her and brought her in for interrogation, in which Lola revealed that she was hard for money and was getting it by harvesting organs. One of her missions was for a ice user’s liver, so she decided to go with her daughter’s girlfriend. She then managed to escape her binds and in an attempt to leave, eventually ran into an iron maiden and killing herself, traumatizing the others. 
A little whole later, the nobles were invited to a brawl of the Knights of Whitefall. Rhain was one of the main contestants, and won every battle thrown at him. At the end, Lumiere took up the challenge and fought against Rhain, but during their battle, they were egged on by the audience and became stressed and overstimulated, sending out an emotion field that caused a stone cyclops to awaken and the crowd to be shaken up. The cyclops was stunned afterward to prevent damage, with Rhain being called the winner of Lumiere and Rhain’s brawl.
The next day, Aether began coughing and showing signs of being sick, eventually coughing up rocks. It turns out that he had been scratched by the stone cyclops, which gave him an illness where his airway would begin filling with rocks until he eventually was strangled. They went to Nadia’s place, where they decided to go forage for the cure to the illness, geormedia mushrooms. In the process, it was revealed that Lumiere and Aether were dating, as Indigo told the rest of the family. They managed to get a few mushrooms, but in the process, Lumiere was caught in some vines that were too strong. They ended up having to use the amulet, which released Amiere. Amiere caused massive damage to the forest, and even took a life. When they got back, Aether was fed the remedy and Lumiere felt guilty for the fact that they had to use the amulet. After Lumiere and Aether left, Mace accidentally mentioned them dating to Agnes.
The day following, Agnes showed up to Tolkein Castle. She forced her way in and berated Lumiere and Aether. However, Aether managed to confront her and insult her, telling her to leave the castle or he would call the guard.
A little while later, Lumiere began having bad dreams. After four nights, they realized the signs that it was a haunting and went to Asher’s to help. Asher summoned the person who was haunting Lumiere, Jake, and the two talked before he was sent back, to the afterlife, where he couldn’t haunt Lumiere any more. Aether and Asher chatted for a little while, as Aether has a huge hyperfixation on dark magic and wanted to learn about Asher’s spirit specialty. Afterward, Gizmo, Calliope’s fey beast cat, came with a message, inviting Lumiere and Aether over to Adelaine and Nadia’s cottage to celebrate Rhain and Calliope’s anniversary.
The two went over, in which they were asked to go to the apothecary to get tea ingredients for the anniversary. Calliope and Rhain decided to come along, and they went to Julie’s Apothecary. There, they discovered it was owned by Calliope’s ex, Julie. A confrontation went down, but everything was okay in the end. After the confrontation, Aether ran into two people he thought he knew, but they only looked like it.
As it turns out, Aether was right, and those were the two light users that were appointed to be the bodyguards for the Tolkien Family, Marune and Sepherine. They were the ones that collapsed the castle, killing everyone but Aether, and they are now planning to do it again.
A few days later, April 18th, started out as a normal day. When Aether was practicing his magic, he overexerted himself and got tired, electing to take a nap. Suddenly, he was awoken to the castle shaking. He was instantly reminded of his past traumas, and became scared. Lumiere tried to comfort him, but they then learned that his suspicions were correct. The castle then began to fall apart, and the two attempted to escape. During their escape, Sepherine, trying to kill at least one of them, used their magic to impale Lumiere with a support beam. With ten minutes to revive them, he headed and managed to make it to Asher’s home, as his knowledge of Asher’s specialty allowed him to know that they could be revived. Despite being traumatized, they managed to revive Lumiere a few seconds before they were due to enter the afterlife. Lumiere and Aether then stayed at Adelaine and Nadia’s cottage for a while while Lumiere was healed. 
Once they felt ready, Lumiere and Aether went back to the castle ruins. Finding their belongings and especially looking for Lumiere’s amulet. They found it eventually, though it was cracked. When looking through the torture chamber, the iron maiden that had held Lola’s body was still standing, and when it was opened, there was a secret passageway that led underneath the castle. Underground, they learned that Marune and Sepherine were using this space as a hideout, and that was how they got into the castle. They then ran into the two, and it turns out lola was also there, helping them. They fought, and the two light users managed to escape, but Lola wasn’t as fortunate, and was brought back to the cottage and subsequently beaten up, as none of the Drewitts liked her. She was then disposed of, as the nobles came over and Phexides, a vampire, drained her of her blood so they could eat.
Meanwhile, in the afterlife, Erythos was fuming. He had been preparing to bring Lumiere to the afterlife, but since Asher had revived them, all their work was for naught. Conflicted with what to do, they summoned the other two dieties, Kaedras and Luiren, to a meeting. In the end, they decided to let Lumiere live, considering he would see them in a year.
About a month passed, with Lumiere and Aether living their lives to the fullest as they could while Tolkein Castle was rebuilt. Eventually, Aether had to make a speech explaining the recent events, but in the process became overwhelmed and Lumiere had to stop it. At the beginning of May, they went to the May Day celebration in Halmir District.
During their stay in the cottage, Lumiere brought up to the other Drewitts the fact that their amulet was damaged. They decided to go together and fix the amulet, needing to go to Niah District with a light user to do the ritual. To find a light user, Lumiere remembered Kirei who had helped them escape their executioner job, they went to Tirians and found Kirei, in which they decided to help. In the process, Kirei revealed they knew about the deities, and are actually a light elemental sent by Luiren to “slay evil in the name of protecting society.” In the process of fixing the amulet, they were attacked by Feschikls, that turn into your worst fear, which they managed to kill. They then repaired the amulet, but as it turns out Kirei’s heaven magic was too strong and ended up brining the amulet to sentience, making Amiere be their own person. More Feschikls then appeared, and tired of everything, Asher activated his amulet, becoming Aisher. In an attempt to fight him off, Lumiere used their amulet and the two fought. In the end, they both were knocked out and had to brought back, in which Lumiere and Asher had a discussion through their dreams related to his trauma towards them dying.
During recovery, about two and a half weeks, Calliope, Rhain, and the Ladies Sylvia of Halmir District came over to the cottage to seek help from Asher, as there was a situation in the forest related to the blue moon. However, Luna instead had to help, as Asher was still too injured to go on another Drewitt Adventure, and Lumiere and Aether decided to go too.
==== Currently Not Featured ====
This lore is not featured chronologically in any official media that is up to date so far, this may be inaccurate or not contain enough information.
One day, Lumiere's mental health degraded to such a point where they decided they needed to go somewhere secluded to use their magic as to vent out their problems. They asked Aether, and he pointed out a mountain far away from civilization, and the two teleported over. With Aether shielded, as he wanted to go with to make sure they were okay if anything happened, they let loose. Once done, Aether showered them with love, but there was something off about them. Suddenly, Lumiere pulls out a magical blade and Aether is teleported to the cottage. Stressed and worried, Aether found Adelaine and they get back to the mountaintop. There, Lumiere is having a full on fight with their own body, with Adelaine being able to snap them fully out of it. Sensing a disturbance, Adelaine goes to a tree and from behind it comes Agnes. As it turns out, she was using her specialty to mind control them into killing themself. Filled with rage, Adelaine put Agnes into a chokehold, verbally berating her. Agnes, barely being able to speak, only antagonized her more. In the end, Adelaine let her go, but during the chokehold, she used her own specialty to take Agnes' power away, taking it with her as she teleported away with the two kids and left Agnes on the mountaintop, stranded.
Later, during the night, Lumiere had a nightmare about Aether, the nightmare being about Aether being in danger. They woke up, realizing it was just a dream. However, they glanced over to him just in case, and there was a silhouette with a knife looming above him. Their instincts kicking in, they apprehended the silhouette and protected Aether. Their magic usage managed to give enough light for them to learn that it was Agnes, and Aether was now awake. In a fit of rage, Lumiere used a free hand and nearly began using the strings as if they were going to execute her, but Aether managed to snap them out of it, instead sending her to the basement holding cell. Due to the crime of attempted murder on a lord, she was subject to the death penalty, and Kirei decided to take up the job. The date of the execution, all the Drewitts came and watched with joy as she was beheaded.
One year after the support beam incident, Lumiere's soul became separated from their body and transported to hell. Their body was still intact and they were still technically alive, but their soul had been sent to hell as per a secret about the resurrection ritual. During their time in hell, they met Erythos, who showed them around hell and explained their predicament to them. During their time in hell, they asked Erythos about their future, in which he decided to manipulate his power and create a warp in time, in which could contain both 14 year old Lumiere and 31 year old Lumiere, a 17 year time difference, on the dot. They chatted, Lumiere being reassured at least a little about their future. At the end of the day, Lumiere was transferred back to their body.
During a gala, Lumiere and Aether got a bit too romantic, which ended in Dianthus catching them. Due to his homophobia and prejudiced religious beliefs, he dethroned Aether and jailed Lumiere, as his position as king entitled him to do that as he wished. Aether went to stay with Adelaine and Nadia to await what would happen next, as there was uncertainty around the whole situation. During their time in jail, Lumiere realized the person guarding their cell was Kirei, as they had quit their executioner job and instead decided to work in Whitefall's capitol. This helped their short time in imprisonment, as they were worried they would spend their time all alone. A week later, Dianthus would end up being found dead, with Lumiere's amulet around his neck and his hand tightly gripped around it. He had been going through their things and noticed the amulet, deciding to wear it like a trophy despite Lumiere's protests. That day, Amiere had come out to see what was going on, and seeing the homophobic king of Whitefall, they decided to fool him. They encouraged him to squeeze it, saying it would give him "god-like power." He obliged, and the magic overloaded his system and killed him. Lumiere was instantly accused, and sent to trial to determine if they were the cause. Meanwhile, Lloros was in preparations to be crowned king, as he was the heir. During the trial, both the Drewitts and Kirei vouched for Lumiere's innocence, and because of Kirei being a light user, they were pardoned of their charges and were eventually given back their position as Lloros had reenthroned Aether. Lloros was then crowned King of Whitefall.
