## Summary

**King Silvis Prisma** (b. Silvis Prisma) is a historical figure, known for being one of the most destructive and cruel Metalscales of modern times. He is also a one-time character in Volume I. He only appears formally in the prologue, but was mentioned several times throughout the volume, mostly by Queen Tarinne Prisma.

He resides as a banished soul, and has even trapped several souls under his own rule. He formerly resided in the Floating Palace in the downtown city of Brassridge in the Kingdom of Metallum. Before that, he resided in the Prisma-Tomen palace. He is most infamous for creating the cult, SSS. He is also a surrounding character on the Prisma family curse involving his father, Dennith Prisma, and Dennith's former mistress, Oona Clover.

He was born on November 09, 1840, and was assassinated by his daughters, Marelle and Tarinne Prisma, on December 12, 1894. He is an Industrial formerly a Metalscale, and before that, apart of the Diamond League.

## Brief Living History

As a boy, Silvis was a timid and skittish Diamond Industrial who lived in the Prisma-Tomen palace. He witnessed all of his older siblings die at only 23, and watched his parents fall into a depression. Silvis developed feelings for his fellow Diamond, Soreene Tomen. However, Soreene rejected Silvis and instead partnered with a Gold named Kratus Dulced.

This made Silvis slowly turn sour inside and he partnered with a friend of Kratus, a Gold named Cornelia Moriah. They had three daughters together, Marelle, Tarinne, and Arriette. Meanwhile, Soreene and Kratus also had three children together, two sons named Orthello and Cyedas, and one daughter named Yudith. Silvis’ time bomb eventually went off when he saw Kratus rocking an infant Yudith to sleep. He murdered Kratus and framed his death to look like a suicide.

Only a few months later, Queen Florithe Prisma fell sick to lung cancer. She picked Cornelia as her successor, much to the spite of Silvis. However, he kept his anger inside and joyfully celebrated Cornelia’s accomplishments with their three daughters. Silvis took his family to a lake house near the Ink Sea, where he strangled Cornelia to death that night. Silvis lied to his daughters about their mother’s death, saying she could not handle the pressure of being queen. And thus, she took her own life.

At the last moment, Queen Florithe picked Silvis to be her successor before she succumbed to lung cancer. Silvis became king and right away inflicted a reign of terror. He had many arguments with his fellow Metalscale, Queen Pamelina Khrom, and looked for ways to get rid of her. King Silvis created a cult called the Society for Serving Silvis.

King Silvis forced Soreene to become his partner by threatening to kill her three children with Kratus. Soreene only agreed to keep her children safe. She suffered a miscarriage with King Silvis, and later tried to flee to Tellum while carrying his second child. Infuriated at this, King Silvis slaughtered Soreene in an impulsive fit of rage. Arriette, the youngest daughter of King Silvis, witnessed this, and escaped to downtown Brassridge to hide as a fugitive. She hid with Castilla and Paladinus Yules, and served as a foster sister and friend to their three children.

King Silvis eventually found the answer to get rid of Queen Pamelina, through Berwig Banut. Berwig had previously worked with a fellow medic named Londolia Cylix in order to create a shot to give to Industrials so they would not rust. Berwig found the answer, in the form of the Rustgear Serum. King Silvis commanded Berwig to poison Queen Pamelina, and his request was obeyed. At hardly thirteen, Berwig became king, and King Silvis had him wrapped around his finger.

King Silvis then vowed to destroy the last of the Tomen family out of his anger for Soreene breaking his heart. He managed to corner and kill Cyedas and Yudith, but was unsuccessful in taking the life of their older brother, Orthello. Arriette, who had returned a few months prior, sacrificed herself by diving in front of the knife meant for Orthello. Later, King Silvis partnered with Luelle Marioh, who was eerily a first-cousin of Cornelia.

He installed many unfair laws, such as *Senior’s Exile*. Any Industrial older than 60 was banished into the Llana Desert, as to King Silvis, they had no use. However, King Silvis was a hypocrite with this rule. He allowed his father, Dennith Prisma, to stay, who was 93 and had Alzheimer’s disease. Soon, Marelle, the eldest daughter of King Silvis, joined SSS as a spy. She, along with King Berwig and Mirya Vergahn, gathered information on how to take down King Silvis.

One night, Tarinne found King Silvis alone in the Temple of Metallum giving his respects to Insomnia. She rushed home to Marelle, and told her that this was the one chance they had to get rid of their evil father once and for all. The two sisters each grabbed a knife, snuck into the temple, ambushed King Silvis, and stabbed him to death. King Silvis was ultimately shocked at seeing his own daughters being his murderers, but accepted his fate. His body was buried in an unmarked area by the Ink Sea.

## Brief Dead History

King Silvis was banished from the Divine Void for his immoral crimes. He spends his days roaming and watching over his kin. King Silvis only wanders in the city of Brassridge, he has never been reported to wander anywhere else. He is also told in ghost stories to children.

King Silvis cannot be summoned, he only appears to those he wants to appear to.

King Silvis wears the clothes he died in, which was a long red coat, lined with white fur, that stretches down past his feet and trails behind him. When he walks, this coat leaves blood behind him. This blood vanishes soon after. He also wears black knee-high boots, an orange, open-collared shirt, and long, gray pants. A jeweled, decorated crown is always seen sitting on the top of King Silvis’ head. However, he sometimes walks around with his crown in his arms, especially around other Metalscales. His lips and teeth are stained with blood, and more blood occasionally drips out of his mouth. It is said if King Silvis removes his coat, you can see the entry wounds of the knives that his daughters used to stab him.

Most of the time, King Silvis emerges to his descendants, and usually tells them advice or insults. For example, towards the end of her life, Marelle was lonely after being paralyzed from a factory accident. King Silvis fondly kept his eldest daughter company, but at the same time, insulted Marelle for her life choices.

Sometimes, other civilians see King Silvis drinking at bars and walking through the streets of Brassridge. King Silvis usually does not confront anyone, however, he is confronted because of his appearance, which is that of a king. When confronted, King Silvis murders whomever asks him of his whereabouts. The description of King Silvis is told often, so others can remember and avoid him.
