Taquila

## Media

**Taquila** was one of the three Holy Cities of the Witch Federation, and the last city to fall during the **Second Battle of Divine Will** and was abandonned 400 years ago.

## Geography

Located on the Fertile Plains, Taquila is encircled by the Misty Forest.

Like every other **Holy City**, Taquila is built above a lode of God's Stone of Retaliation.

## Background

**Taquila** could accommodate 50,000 people, and was the most thriving Holy City on Fertile Plains after hundreds of years of development.

A city of over 100,000 people resembles Arrieta in the early days.

When the Witch Federation retreated from the Fertile Plaines, Taquila had 250,000 people.

"Even when the magic power tide touched the bottom, Arrieta had at least 10 newly awakened witches every year... Taquila's number tripled that."

The Taquila leader was Natalia, also called the **Queen of Taquila**.

## Chronology

Towards the end of the **Second Battle of Divine Will**, Taquila faced all of these issues—following the collapse of many major cities, more and more people flocked to the **Holy City**. Overpopulation did not strengthen the city's defense, but instead paralyzed the entire city, the demand for food and water increased dramatically. Secondly, there would be more public safety issues following an increase in slums. The Union had to forcefully remove a group of refugees to settle the crisis.

A railway leading from Neverwinter to **Taquila** has been established for war.

**Taquila** has been reconquered after the **Battle of Taquila**, and is now used as military outpost.

## Features & Layout

The ruins of Taquila covered an area that was five or six times larger than Iron Sand City

The top of the wall, though damaged, was still as wide as 20 plus steps which was wide enough for two four-wheeled carriages to travel side by side. In the walls covered by moss and vines, they saw a few round holes and wondered how much force was required to create such damage to these huge stone walls

Agatha thought that even the castle in Neverwinter could not compare to **Taquila's Quest Tower** in grandiosity.

The Tower of Babel which was both the highest building of the city and the center of the Union.

## Trivia

* A map leading to Taquila was in possession of the **Eltek family.**

The Siege of Longsong Stronghold

The **Siege of Longsong Stronghold**, also known as the **Rebellion of Longsong Stronghold,** was an attempted rebellion by Jacques Medde to seize control of Longsong Stronghold from Petrov Hull, the current manager of the Stronghold and Roland Wimbledon's representative. The battle was also the first time the 'Second Army' participated in a military conflict.

 Overview

The remaining nobles of Longsong Stronghold wanted to reclaim their territory with the assistance of Timothy Wimbledon. The rebels was given half baked firearms produced by Timothy in order to combat Roland.

## Chronology

### Prelude

Timothy has not yet given up on his conquest towards his brother's territory. Therefore, he provided firearms to the rebels in order to combat against Roland's forces if they ever do come and defend.
Viper

Viper has a sword fight with Brian. He was not a member of the Border Town patrol. He is later killed by Nightingale.

## Appearance

He was not a tall man, but his hands were too big in comparison to his body, when his arms were hanging down from his sides his hands almost reached his knees, his eyes were so strange.

## Swordstyle

Just like his name, this guy was really the incarnation of a serpent. He would always attack from a strange and tricky angle, in addition to his extremely long arm span. He directly forced Brian into a bitter struggle. Brian was forced back again and again, and he could never find an opportunity to counter attack.

The Sigil of God's Will

## Sigil of God's Will

* Item
* Activation
* Beam

**The Sigil of God's Will** is the most powerful kind of Sigil, according to Agatha. Its power would be enough to wipe out the Border Town castle, once activated. However, it requires an alarming amount of magic power. During the time of the Witch Federation, only Transcendents had enough magic power to activate it by themselves. As the Magic Stones used to create it all come from Senior Demons, it's quite rare, in fact, in all of Taquila there were only three or four of its kind.

When charged it will show rainbow lights and shoots a powerful straight beam that decimates its targets. It is said to be immensely powerful by Agatha, supposingly able to destroy Roland Wimbledon's Castle in one hit/beam/strike. It is normally used as a weapon of war towards the Devils during the Taquila era, but it requires massive magic power to successfully charge the sigil.

Nail

**Nail** is a First Army soldier. Before joining the army ranks he worked at the mine and was responsible for operating the steam engine.

## Personality

During the battle against the Church at Coldwind Ridge, he hesitated to shoot a Pure Witch as she looked so young. This matter affected him deeply, and he attempted to resign afterwards but was rejected by Iron Axe. Even after leaving his position in the machine gun team and becoming an observer, its influence didn't fade.

## Background

Nail was a young miner, which was why his foreman Iron Head allocated him less work.

## Chronology

Nail was assigned to control steam machine and warn everyone before exhausting it. He didn't notice Iron Head and scalded him by accident. He took the injured miner and brought him to the field hospital.

Soon, he left work at the mines and joined the Militia on Iron Head's advice. Not long after he joined, it was reorganized into the First Army. After participating on the town's defense against Duke Ryan and the troops sent by Timothy, he was promoted to a team leader in the Flintlock Squad.

He participated in the Battle of King's City and the battle against the Church at the Coldwind Ridge. After the latter battle, he resigned from his position as a gunner and became an observer, responsible for protecting machine gunners.

## Relationships

#### **Iron Head**

The foreman at the North Slope Mountain took care of Nail whenever he could. When the first steam engine was sent to increase the production, he chose Nail as the operator. After the Militia successfully defended the town during the Months of Demons, he suggested Nail join them as it was a much more promising job than being a miner.

#### **Brian**

After Brian's knighting, Nail was the only one of the team who talked to him, calling him His Excellency though. Nail often spoke that he talked with Roland.

Underground Hermes Castle

The **Underground Hermes Castle** was a secret base of the Church, hidden in the natural sinkhole. It served as the real core of the organization. Only the Pope and his successor were allowed to enter and leave the castle.

## Structure

### The staircase

The Underground Castle started from a circular staircase leading into the earth.

The staircase, with a depth of at least of four towers atop each other and a diameter of about 20 feet, was built in a natural sinkhole and was large enough to hold a lord's castle. The top of the sinkhole was lit by the skylights on the highly-arched dome above, while the center of the sinkhole reflected a faint blue light. The deeper it went, the brighter the light grew.

The path was cut out of granite, formed by many rectangular pieces three fingers thick. It was wide enough for two people walk side by side. One end of each granite piece was embedded into the rock wall while the other end was in the air. In order to prevent accidental falls, there were wooden fence posts that were connected by rope at the side of the hole.

At the bottom of the sinkhole was a huge white stone disc, smooth as a mirror. Through a cleverly designed construction, the light coming through the windows within the dome was so reflected that it directly hit the millstone. Thanks to this, even without lighting a torch, the bottom of the doline was never dark.

### Depth of the mountain

Apart from the main road to the south there were many side forks which further divided. Some tunnels were used bu the church, while another were sealed.

The main road led to to the depths of the mountain. There was a checkpoint every 100 meters, every district between two barriers served a different function. The outermost district was a living quarter for the warriors who guarded the underground. The second district was reserved for the archive for documents, manuscripts, and where the surviving volumes of ancient books were located, the third district was the prison for people which the church needed to keep hidden from the rest of the world. After the third checkpoint was the Pivotal Secret Area, from which all the discoveries and inventions of the church originated.

## Defence

On the stone surface directly above the stairs were embedded God's Stones of Retaliation. Every hundred step down the stairs there was a guard from the Judgement Army. Every checkpoint of the castle's main area was guarded by the squad of five most loyal judges, sworn to live the rest of their life underground. Within the castle, a platoon of God's Punishment Army was ready to meet the invaders head-on.

## Background

Construction of the Underground Castle was accompanied by tremendous efforts and losses. The masons in the church were suspended on ropes so that they could carve grooves deep enough and insert the slates in them one by one; more than 300 people had died from broken or slipped ropes.

## Chronology

Mayne visited king Wimbledon III and told him news of Graycastle's inner conflict before poisoning him.
Vanilla

**Vanilla** used to be a Pure Witch of the Church. She is now a member of the Witch Union.

## Personality

Vanilla is a timid person. Despite starting off as a pure witch, due to having awakened only shortly before the battle with Graycastle, she does not feel any hostility to other witches and joins the Witch Union after the Church's defeat.

## Background

At some point, Vanilla would have been adopted by the church in their efforts to gather witches. She awakened shortly before the battle with Graycastle and was kept by Zero in her strategy to absorb Roland.

## Chronology

Vanilla is one of the few witches Zero did not sacrifice to make more God's Punishment Warriors as she was needed to locate Roland's position during the battle. After the battle was finished, she was discovered quivering alongside a passed out Isabella and Margie.

[Hide Spoiler] During Isabella's interrogation, Roland reveals to her that he allowed Margie and Vanilla to join the Witch's Union since they had never directly caused anyone harm.[Show Spoiler]

[Hide Spoiler] Vanilla joins Mystery Moon in her second detective case although Lily believes that she was just too nervous to say no.[Show Spoiler]

[Hide Spoiler] She eventually helps Graycastle's Intelligence Agency to get proof on the suspects of the murder of Smarty (the one who informed Graycastle of Sky Lord Hackzord's powers), due to the same blood scent being in the letter and in the murderers bodies.[Show Spoiler]

Around chapter 1431, she... [Hide Spoiler] joins the Armor Unit to fight against the Sky-sea Realm.[Show Spoiler]

## Abilities

### Awakening

**Enhanced Smell:** She can sniff out various unimaginable smells when she cast her ability. In her opinion, bloodstains after a month would still emit a faint stench and there would be a strange odor on furs when animals were in the rut.

## Relationships

### Church

Vanilla was a pure witch for a very short time before the Church's downfall, and it is unclear how attached she was to it at the time.

### Witch Union

[Hide Spoiler] Vanilla joins the Witch Union during Roland's two month coma. She is not often seen interacting with the other witches, but she does seem to be getting along with them as evidenced by Mystery Moon going to get her for the second detective case.[Show Spoiler]

## Trivia

* Her power could be considered useless. But Roland could find a way to use her magic for detecting hazardous materials or scavenging.

Retnin

Retnin was a former chief alchemist in the Alchemist Workshop in the King's City of Graycastle, who then later started working for Roland Wimbledon in the City of Neverwinter.

## Personality

After starting working for Roland in the chemistry field, he showed a special interest in creating bombs and explosives.

## Background

Retnin worked in the Alchemist Workshop from very young to achieve his top position there. It took him 34 years to go from apprentice to chief.

## Chronology

After Roland Wimbledon became the new king of Graycastle, he visited the Alchemy Workshop along with his chief alchemist, Kyle, who offended the three chief alchemists there with his claims about alchemy and chemistry. After using his superior knowledge of chemistry, Kyle managed to recruit quite a number of chemists to work in the City of Neverwinter, including Retnin.

## Relationships

### Kyle Sichi

Kyle once applied to join the Alchemist Workshop of the King's City years ago as an aspiring alchemist. However, his invention failed to work during the review process, which Retnin was overseeing as the reviewing alchemist. Retnin got outraged and kicked him out, while seizing most of his money as compensation.

When Kyle visited the workshop years later as Roland's chief alchemist in order to recruit the chemists there, he told Retnin that he was "just claiming what he deserves" after successfully convincing the alchemists. However, he still didn't refuse Retnin's request to join alongside the others.

Rodney

**Rodney** is a soldier of First Army's Artillery Battalion and veteran of Border Town's Militia. He serves under command of captain Van'er.

## Chronology

Initially artillerists trained with one cannon to prepare it to shoot, from cannon cart detachment to gunpowder loading, without actual firing. Additionally they trained to set cannon onboard of Littletown. After the week of training artillery teams were allowed to shoot cannon balls at turns with angle changing.

## Trivia

* In controversies he always sides with his brother.
Hermes

**Hermes** (赫尔梅斯) is a newly built fortress city atop the mountain. The Church officials call it the **New Holy City**.

## Background

Hermes was established 20 years before Roland's transfer to resist Demonic beasts at Months of Demons. Initially there was nothing, but during this time, the Church paved a road from Old Holy City up the mountain to transport supplies and construction materials and built fortress city with spectacular buildings and impressive walls.

## Appearance

It was like an insurmountable natural moat, standing across the path through the impassable mountain range. The pass to the top was flat and wide, it was wide enough for dozens of people to pass through side by side. At the beginning of the path, there were cliffs formed by a glacier on both sides, but the later part was a plateau.

This was why the church desperately wanted to build the new Holy City to the top of the mountain.

Using this terrain, they built a line of defense that was almost impossible to break through.

They were able to transport so many stones and timber from the foot of the hill to the top. In just twenty years they were able to build a city in Hermes, the power The Church had exhibited was astounding.

If they didn’t build the stronghold in Hermes, all countries on the continent would have had to face a catastrophe. They were also responsible for the convention against the Demonic Beast Horde.

Every year during January when the demonic beasts attack, the Four Kingdoms which border Hermes must send troops to support The Church and fight together under The Church’s verdict.

## Buildings

In addition to the mountains and rocks around Hermes there was nothing here besides a little church at the bottom of the mountains. But now, they have not only opened up a road for a carriageway up the mountain peak, but they have also established a large-scale fortress city.

The Holy City’s new Hall of Military Affairs makes the theater in Graycastle look like a shack. Gerald compares it to a piece of exquisite art. It’s so spacious that it could swallow five theaters. However, not a single pillar supports the exterior walls. The walls are held up by eight behemoth-like demonic beast bones. Between the curved bones are many smaller bones which are connected by hemp ropes, and the roof hovers in midair as if it were on a pole.

Guardian

The Guardian is a being as old as the world's cycle (around 10 million years), whose appearance changes depending on the beings observing her.  She stays at the Bottomless Land waiting for the person who has the key to open the passage to the bridge to the Realm of Mind.

## Personality

Even though they just met, Joan believed that the Guardian was a nice person and that it would not lie to her.  Roland, on the other hand, seems to think her behaviour to be a troublesome issue, since the Guardian isn't expressing any hostility and might have a completely different concept on good and evil from human, then they might be treated like humans treat birds: no one treated birds as enemies, but sometimes helped some injured ones or saved some from cats and other times killed a group of them if they stole grains.  Hackzord also seem to find her rather amiable, though lacking the imposing grandeur of a demon of high standing.

## Chronology

She first appeared to Joan as she arrived unintentionaly at the Bottomless Land and helped her to heal her wounds. At that time she presented itself as a very pretty woman with two strands of black hair cascading to her chest and who was wearing a white dress. She eventually treated Joan's wounds with a medicinal cream and wrapped them with her dress.

Later a POV part-chapter of her is released, which shows that she wished to meet with Joan again. By that time, she also believed that it was too late, since the last tranquility the sea would have till its end was happening at that moment. According to her this Battle of Divine Will might be the last one of the cycle.

Afterwards, she meets Hackzord appearing as a female higher ascendant demon, with distinguished fingers and hair, dressed in light and white cotton robes. She eventually leads him to the bottomless pit due to his request to see the bridge to the Realm of Mind,  and eventually disappears after being attacked by him.

During Graycastle's attack against the Deep Sea Demons in the Bottomless Land, she eventually appears to Anna as a girl dressed in pure white and advises her to leave while there's still time. It appears that she knows about the Oracles and reveals that the Battle of Divine Will is an attempt to seek the answer. Right before disappearing, she tells Anna that if Roland really possess as much strength as Anna claims he does, then he would not need the bridge (Bottomless Land) nor the key (Complete Legacy Shard).

## Trivia

* Due to her understanding Joan, and Hackzord she might: have a way to communicate mentally, have a translator type magic or be very well versed in all types of languages. When tallking to the Guardian, Anna's voice didn't seem to come out from her throat, which might support the mental communication theory.
* As noted by Hackzord and Anna being attacked whithout realizing anything around them while talking to her, her apparison to them might be on the Realm of Mind.

Osha Clan

The Osha Clan was a former Mojin clan that is notable for originally being the clan which had Echo and Iron Axe before it was disbanded. However, later in the story, the clan was re-formed.

## Chronology

The Osha clan was originally a Mojin clan which had Echo as a Divine lady of the clan. However, after her brother was killed in a Holy duel against the Iron Whip clan, the Osha clan was destroyed. Most clan members were sent to the Endless cape where most did not survive. Iron Axe settled in the Western region of Graycastle and Echo was sold off as a slave.

However, after Roland sent a military expedition to the extreme southern region, Iron Axe created a new Osha clan with Echo being the divine lady and leader. This was done by taking over one of the watchdog clans at one of the smaller Oasis in the extreme south. Through this, for the first time in recent memory, the Osha clan challenged different clans every single day and won them all. This propelled them to become the most powerful clan in the extreme south and thus the de facto rulers of the extreme southern region.
Timothy Wimbledon/Power & Abilities

## Abilities

Timothy is very cunning and intelligent, capable of predicting and controlling the movements of his older brother and taking advantage of the latter's plans. He also has a brilliant tactical and strategic mind, being able to co-ordinate and lead attacks against his sister Garcia and her rebel forces, until she was eventually forced to abandon Graycastle and relocate to the Kingdom of Everwinter. He was also responsible for multiple (failed) attempts to bring down his younger brother Roland and the city of Neverwinter.

As the king of Graycastle, Timothy had access to all the wealth and resources of the King's City, Eastern Region, Northern Region and later the Southern Region after Garcia left with her Blacksail Fleet. This allowed him to boast one of the most formidable armies at the time (see Timothy's Army for more information). However, Timothy and his forces were still no match for the Western Region's industrialisation, the overwhelming firepower of the First Army and the magical abilities of the Witch Union.
Thunder

**Thunder** is the greatest explorer of the Fjords. He is also the father of Lightning.

## Appearance

Thunder had the typical short blonde-colored hair of Fjords locals, just like Lightning. He was brown-skinned and had a stocky body, rugged-looking appearance, and thick sideburns that were conjoined with the stubbles covering half of his face and his chin.

## Personality

Thunder is a courageous man, always searching for new things to discover across the ocean.

He is also a deeply loving father, wanting to discover as much as possible, so that his daughter, a budding explorer, will have less to discover and less danger to experience.

To the amusement of Roland, Thunder also has a flair for disguises (litterally). When incognito to avoid Lightning, Thunder dressed in a flamboyant manner to hide his face.

## Chronology

When visiting Graycastle, Thunder often used a disguise to prevent Lightning from recognizing him. His inspiration for it was a deceased explorer friend named Sander Flyingbird which introduced him on the explorer path. Though his friend hadn't made a significant discovery and consequently lived and died in obscurity, he died saving **Thunder** from a Sea Ghost attack.

## Abilities

Thunder is a skilled leader and sailor, being able to boost the morale of his crew singlehandedly. His experience as a sailor is unsurpassed, and he is known as the greatest explorer because of his exploits.

Thunder is also skilled in deception, being able to use make-up to change his appearance and alter his mannerisms well enough that not even his daughter can recognize him.

## Relationships

### Family

#### Lightning

Thunder loves his daughter dearly and always brought her along on his adventures. After being separated, he sent his old friend to look for her and was relieved to find out she was safe in Border Town. He has decided to explore everywhere in the world, even at the expense of taking time away from being with his daughter because he wants to lessen the amount of danger she will experience when she inevitably follows in his footsteps.

## Trivia

* Thunder's acting made Roland believe that there were people who possessed this extraordinary talent. Roland only knew one other person who had the same level of acting skills and that was May.

Langley

## Media

**Langley** unlike most of the court officials who were under the previous king's command, he was Timothy's henchman. He was responsible for the search and capture of witches in King's City.

## Personality

Langley was foolish, coward and an incompetent man. He entered the court thanks to Timothy, who was in need of subordinates and was trying to get the king's favor with all his effort.

Proof of his incompetence was capturing and killing women at random in his witch hunt; he never had any substantial proof. Also, it was **common knowledge** that a God's Stone of Retaliation would *react* to a witch; however, he never used one in his interrogations and just tortured the women instead.

## Chronology

Weimar asked Timothy to cease the witch hunt campaign because Langley's subordinates had captured and tortured common women who weren't witches. In response to Weimar's accusations, Langley told all guilty personnel were punished with lashings and a fine of 25 silver royals.

While making excuses he almost exposed Timothy's intentions behind the witch hunt, to the latter's annoyance. Eventually he was ordered to verify the arrested women with priest's help before torturing them, otherwise he would be thrown into moat as fish feed.

Searing Flame Island

**Searing Flame Island** is the largest island of the fjords located in the far east and is an uninhabitable island because of the perilous environment; a volcanic land where lava constantly ejected from the bottom of the ocean and formed huge columns of steam that tended to block the view and burn crew members from ships who near it.

After generations of exploration, a full map of that area had been drafted. Adventurers simply need to follow the correct route and enter the Island at a right time in order to avoid the dangers.

Azima said that during their trip to Searing Flame Island, there was nothing except hot dry sand.  Roland hypothesize that the sand was bauxite.

Following Timothy's death, Wilion refused to submit to Roland Wimbledon, both to avenge Timothy's death, as well as to maintain his power as a noble.

## Chronology

Valencia was the first city to build a prototype cannon based on the ones Roland designed for his First Army. Unfortunately for them, the Valencia Cannons are extremely inferior to even the first generation 12 pound canons used by Roland's First Army.

When the First Army, under the command of Iron Axe, arrived to forced Valencia to submit to King Roland, Valencia attempted to fight the First Army by blocking the river, flooding the river banks, and using their two newly built cannons to repel the invaders. Unfortunately for them, while a flooded river bank did mean the First Army could not bring cannons ashore, Roland has already developed fully operational Mortars by this time, and Valencia's defenses were quickly destroyed.

Duke Wilion his chief knight and 7 knights and 12 squires prepared to launch a suicide charge after the First Army took the city gate, but only the duke and his chief knight actually made the charge, while the others fled. The suicide charge quickly ended in a hailstorm of machine gun bullets before they could reach the First Army to do any damage, and they died in vain.

The remaining militant nobles quickly surrendered. But because Nightingale wasn't there to use her lie detector test to find out who was guilty and who would be loyal, and they didn't have the time or resources to wait there and sort it out, Iron Axe set the castle's prison ablaze, killing all the captured nobles inside. The other nobles in the city then fled, completely seeding control of the city to the first army and the city hall officials trained in Neverwinter.

Snow Powder

Snow powder is a type of gunpowder that burns slowly.

## Overview

It was essentially gunpowder but with the wrong formula.

## Production

In this time period, snow powder was mixed into a ratio of 3:1:1 and it also sometimes contained some strange materials (such as mercury, butter, honey, etc.) which were sometimes mixed into it at a 2% ratio.

## Uses

Snow powder is used for court celebrations.

## History

In fact, this era had all the conditions for guns to appear. Alchemists often created a powder, which was called snow powder.

In the next one hundred years, the prototype of guns - usable for war, would probably appear.

Good to note, as of chapter 914, we have gotten the information that maggie flies around 60km/h and that it would take her to fly from Hermes to Neverwinter just less than 3 days to fly there after sunset not picking any food whatsoever. if they meant that she flies for 24 hours a day it would be around 4000 km. if they meant only around 14 hours its still around 2520 km. meaning that from Snowsky Peak to the Extreme South is most likely between 4000 km and 7000km.
Timothy Wimbledon/Relationships

## Family

### Ayling Wimbledon

Timothy seems to care and love his father the most out of all his siblings, due to the care his father had given him. When the church first sent Aphra to mislead Timothy into believing his father is dead, it caused Timothy to direct his hatred towards witches and he soon began the witch massacre campaign which will soon cause innocent deaths of various witches and women in King's City. However, his plan will eventually lead into his own downfall as he attracted the wrath of Hill Fawkes, who reported his gunpowder plan to Roland.

### Gerald Wimbledon

It was noted the the two were close when they were younger. Initially unwilling to kill him on the account of their past relationship, he decisively ordered his execution after the unexpected death of their father.

### Garcia Wimbledon

It was noted the the two were close when they were younger, often playing together in the castle gardens and showing concern over her well-being. Now, Timothy is pressured by her growing forces and strong desire of the throne leading him to forcefully deceive his people into taking pills from the Church to serve as cannon fodder in order to enforce his rule. He views her as an obstacle and actively tries to kill her.

### Roland Wimbledon

Timothy was never fond of Roland, taking pleasure in making his younger brother's life miserable. He often thought of him as a useless fool even after the successful defeat of the Duke. Once, he locked him in the castle dungeons and neglected him only to return after taking delight in his pathetic appearance; the mocking that ensued caused young Roland's deeply ingrained fear and cowardice to follow him throughout adulthood.

However, the two brothers grew to despise each other as Roland continued to resist Timothy's rule for the majority of the Graycastle reunification wars. Unable to understand Roland's inexplicable advantages and his love for witches, Timothy started to think that Roland had sold his soul to demons and it is because of that that Roland has access to more advanced gunpowder technology even though he only rules over an 'impoverished' Border Town.

When the two met again in the castle dungeon after the fall of King's City, Timothy immediately realised that Roland was 'not his brother' and thought that his body was taken over by demons, refusing to believe that the 'fool' of a brother that he once knew was the same person responsible for the successful siege of the supposedly impregnable King's City (which was technically true because by this time Cheng Yan had taken over Roland's body).

### Tilly Wimbledon

Although Timothy was never really close to his younger sister, he was aware of her high intelligence. He wanted her to assist her in King's City due to her high IQ, only to discover that she has disappeared in the city his father has dispatched to.

Mother of Soul

## Mother of souls

The **Mother of Souls** or parent bodies are beings responsible for managing the production of Red Mist through their respective Birth Tower and the towers' growth over time. There is at least one for each demon city. The Demon Civilization was only possible due to their existence and is almost entirely dependent on them.

## Appearance

It resembles a ball with sludge-like tentacles growing all over its body with a symmetrical pair of compound eyes over its head. Its size equal three central carriers. It also appears to have a root which generally stays connected to a Birth Tower.

## Background

The Mother of Soul was the origin of everything, the most important individual out of the whole clan. It would only reach its maturity when magic power reached its peak and when the Divine Will emerged. By that time, the Mother of Soul would be fused with the raw God's Punishment Stone. Within a few years, the God's Stone mine would transform into a high tower that would further produce more Red Mist via magic power.

It apparently lives below each Red Mist Lake around a Birth Tower and to the Witches it appeared to be either a variant demon or a Chaos Beast birthed from a Magic stone.

## Chronology

It was mentioned by Celine while she was on board the Deity of Gods and soon further explained by Mask. The parent body inside the Deity of Gods was modified by him to control not only the production of Red Mist through the use of Magic power but also the flight control of the Deity of Gods.

After its God's Stone of Retaliation reserves were running out that specific Mother of Soul, which was now fused with Eleanor, got transfered to the North Slope Mountain's mine near Neverwinter.

## Power and Abilities

Its body and magic power are as strong as the King and other Demon Lords, and has the ability to produce Red Mist through its fusion with a Birth Tower. Through Mask's experiments he is able to make it able to control the entire floating system of the Deity of Gods by sacrificing its rational capabilities.

## Trivia

* It is first refered to as parent body, but soon after it is almost exclusively called by Mother of Soul from there on.

* Mothers of Soul seem to have a sterile subtype, which are born out of the period when the Divine Will emerged. They can also fuse with God's Stones to form smaller Mist Storage Towers, which cannot generate Red Mist anew, but can store it (by nourishing the microscopic biota within it) for a long time.

Senior Demon

**Senior Demon** (whom Demons themselves call '**Upgraded'**) is an elite type of demon.

## Appearance

Senior demon is dressed in a weighty but delicate armor, with a giant heavy sword on his back. The face is totally covered by a helmet made of metal, in perfect match with demon's armor. On both sides of the helmet engraved sophisticated patterns. Several sharp horns, which looked like Blackstone Pagodas at first sight, stuck out from the top. The part where his eyes should be are gleaming with red light, making the demon look vicious and aggressive.

## Power and Abilities

### Magic

There are many varieties based on magic stones. Most can tank bullets with ease because of their armor.

Some of them are Supermagic:

Supermagic is just a title, instead of a certain kind of ability. Every Senior Demon has many kinds of abilities, and different from witches, demons don't have to get their abilities through awakening. Someone in the Union once witnessed a Senior Demon, who had led the enemy to attack Taquila many times, that evolved two different Magic Cyclones inside its body in merely several years. That means it gained two more abilities during that time. No one knew how it did that. The demons seem to be more naturally talented than us in manipulating the magic power.

A Supermagic doesn't refer to a demon with certain kinds of Magic Cyclones, but refers to an extremely powerful Senior Demon, who can release power to create the effects similar to those of a God's Stone."

To be more accurate, it interferes with magic power.

The Supermagic is able to break through the defense of the God's Stone of Retaliation and can obstruct or diminish the magic power attacks. They can also dispel or stop magic power effects. They're really tough opponents for all the witches."

## Equipment

* Magic Stones: they usually have many Magic Stones.
* Black Stone Giant Heavy Sword (web Novel):
* Black Stone Long Sword (Manhua):

## Trivia

* By Third Battle of Divine Will their status lowered.
