## Concept/Design Notes

### Backstory

The glory of the kingship in the past is about to be recast. The withered bones under the coffin can reveal a trace of the cruelty behind the coronation of glory. The story of the battle for kingship will be witnessed by you!

*Crowned with glory, one will succeed and all will die*

Thousands of years ago, the Avars, who drove chariots in the arena, were no longer satisfied with humble titles. When he rushed to the throne with his followers, the great Basilissa gave an order, and his ambition to covet the throne was finally crushed under the kingship.

Thousands of years later, the buried kingdom reappeared. Following the guidance of the gurgling water, the people of later generations came to the underground of the palace. The statues sealed by stone chains recorded the solemnity of the past. Ignorant people, they only know how to pick up the gold in front of them, but they don’t know the price of greed.

They have been marked sacrifices from the moment they stepped into the kingdom's coffin, and the great Basilissa will be fully resurrected and once again ascend the throne of kingship through her bones, just as she was a thousand years ago.

In the twenty-eighth season Essence 1 poster released by "The Fifth Personality", the opera singer Basilissa is opening her arms. Many souls regained the crown and crowned her head. There are still struggling bones piled up at her feet, and the smug smile on her mouth is full of joy for resurrection. The Clerk - Marshal is standing faithfully aside, she looks up devoutly at the great Basilissa, witnesses the moment of the coronation of glory, and once again submits to the kingship thousands of years ago. Forward- Avar's Chariot is kneeling at Basilissa's feet with his hands tied behind his back, with a struggling and unyielding expression on his face, expressing his dissatisfaction with the coronation of the crown and the humiliation of being forced to kneel.

***Sacrifice greed, recast the fallen kingship***

The twenty-eighth season Essence 1 story video tells us the little-known story behind the coronation of glory. Behind the recovery of kingship is the price paid by the greedy and the failure of the usurper.

The opera singer - Basilissa is a vested interest in this fire sacrifice. She wakes up with the power of her bones and recreates the glory of the kingship thousands of years ago. Wearing a gold crown, earrings and gem accessories, and a gold-plated Chunik, the queen's authority attracts everyone to lift her head up for her, and her every move seems to be manipulating people's hearts; jewels and tassels are staggered around her waist, and the dark black dress tightly wraps her body, whether it is glory or bondage; she has a faint blue light in her eyes in a stealth state, gold ornaments hang on her forehead, and jewels are inlaid on the cloak. The blue mist makes her look sinister and dangerous.

The royal power thousands of years ago is about to be revived, and the sleeping stone statue will wake up here. When the greedy people are sacrificed, the revived Basilissa will lift the crown and be crowned again.

***Different routes lead to the same goal, chasing the glory of the millennium***

Under the guidance of glory, the opera singer - Basilissa is surrounded by people who follow the glory: the Clerk - Marshal is a loyal believer. In the name of the consul, she will punish the arrogant rebels on the wheels; the Forward- Avar's Chariot is an ambitious usurper.
The kingship is revived, and the glory is crowned, telling you a story of the battle for kingship that recasts the glory of the millennium!
