The Arc's

# Chained Souls Arcs

**The canon Chained Souls has 5 main arcs (Gold, God and Glory, Divine Expansion, World at Stake Metropolis and Deceit) and 1 arc that's currently Unfinished (Inundation). It has several "Sub-Arcs" such as Pre-Metro, Fahrenheit and New World. There are many "Arcs" that we consider as prequels. We will tell the main and sub arcs and then the Prequels.**

## Gold, God and Glory (Late 1770s-1820s)

Gold, God and Glory is the first main arc of Chained Souls due to it having the first appearances of the main 4 characters. Izzy, Ctl, Oliver and Remy.

The Gold, God and Glory arc started with Izzy Jade running in a flock of soldiers he was with, currently fighting in the R.N.L.L.F Civil War. They headed to the forest and Izzy was basically having a crisis in his head.

He trips in a random area of the Forest and met an Envy Ring demon that was at the woods named Ctl (although it used to be Dante) Vainglory that had left the ring 6 months ago.

Ctl had ***very abusive past.*** and I mean abusive as fuck. His mom (Charolette) used to throw him into fucking walls and bash his head out when he was like 8. Ctl had a portal ability that he had been planning to use for 2 years at this point. A year after the initial planning and thinking, Azaliya (Ctl's mother figure) had died and that really motivated him further to get fuck out. That was when, during a meeting Charolette had in the Greed Ring, Ctl finally got out with the help of his uncle and his aunt.

Now, back to the forest, Ctl saw Izzy and tried to hide since he is a fucking demon, but Izzy still saw him and Izzy was like "fuck it" and vented his **WHOLE** fucking life to a random schizophrenic demon, so after that, [insert small talk and Ctl opening a portal and putting Izzy with his squadron]. Izzy asked for Ctl's name and he said "My name's Ctl. Or you could call me by my other name, Dante." and Izzy said "Oh, I think Ctl is very.. *lovely* name." and yeah, if you seen enough OCverse. You can guess. Years after that meeting, they both thought about that and the "person" they saw. Izzy tried to gather information and he finally found a book called "The Book of the Templar" which was a Sarkic Book that had the purpose of telling information of the Vainglories and it had information on Ctl. Izzy went "Ok I clearly need to meet this man again" and a few years of Izzy searching and Ctl too, Ctl and Izzy met eachother in a market where they had become into friends and into boyfriends **I am really trying to make this serious but I physically can't**

Ok so, you may be wondering Where is "Oliver and Remy". During this time, Oliver was in France for a "Higher Life", and during the years Ctl and Izzy were trying to find eachother and meet, Oliver's peers tried to assassinate him but the assassin they hired (Remy) and Remy basically got convinced by Oliver to stop assassinating and uh, "Stay with him" So because of this, Oliver's god complex got so fucking high that this motherfucker decided to evade death and gain actual superpowers. How? Well, since Sarkic libraries were common, Oliver could find a way to cheat death, and in "The Book of Oblivion", he had found such way. He had to do a ritual that could summon the grim reaper itself to evade death. He would have to play a game of Tamerlane Chess and negotiate the deal. And he won (Oliver is Magnus Carlsen but racist). The deal was that he was gonna gain the power of the "black substance" (racist liquid) and gain immense power, too immense for even demons and angels to handle. After that, he'd guarantee a deal with Abaddon (Ruler of the Sorrow Ring). If he loses his true human form, the only way he can truly die is if he decides to kill himself or if a being with "boundless life-force" (clear fucking foreshadowing) decides that Oliver needs to die

[Insert Envy Ring]

Iris: Aunt, please for the love of Yaldabaoth, STOP MAKING CTL DO JOBS AND CONTRACTS FOR THE MILITARY

Charolette: ***SHUT THE FUCK UP IRIS I LOVE PRIVATE MILITARY COMPANIES!! YOU'RE NEXT TO GO TO THE RECRUITMENT CENTER YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!***

(Iris at the age of twelve was given Ctl's military position despite the fact she was learning goddamn ballet at the time.)

[Ok let's go back into the main 4-] Oliver and Remy moved to Remedy and Oliver went into a war just to kill Izzy (THIS MF IS A FUCKING HATER. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST-) and uh. Oliver kinda melted into a wither skeleton and he kept fucking trying to kill Izzy (THIS MOTHERFUCKER GOT NO LIFE- It's clear I am actually tweaking the fuck right now) (ahmed wtf). After that, Oliver did that deal with Abaddon and shit and got his stats up to 900% and he got a "Anti-Force Sword" which is basically the Inverted Spear of Heaven but stronger And Remy's existence finally get realized by Ctl and Izzy! (Oliver did not ever mention Remy to Izzy and Ctl, Probably for the best :skull:) And, well, Izzy and Ctl was like "So you're an assassin ..." and eventually they finally trusted him since Remy killing one of them is like killing a small character which like provokes 71 bosses on Ultra-Nightmare (ahmed what the fuck are you saying).

## Divine Expansion

Now in Divine Expansion, The main 4 dynamics are already implanted by now so our side-characters actually become relevant. In the start of the arc, Iris attempted to assassinate Izzy. How and why?

Well,

Charolette: Iris, stop fucking jerking off to (insert the worst type here) porn and kill Ctl's husband.

Iris: But why.

Charolette: I'm a fucking hater and also you're pretty useless *less than your mother (Peril), but still.*

Iris: I literally have assassinated like 17 people for you.

Charolette: We don't give a fuck. Then just give us the infomation.

*Insert Iris trying to assassinate Izzy*

Iris: Hey.

Charolette: Hello- Wait who are you-

Iris: Imma shank you real quick-

*[Insert Iris committing a V1 ultrakill]*

***[Insert Envy Ring]***

Charolette: ... Ok it's clear you got dawged so, what info could you get?

Iris: I'm telling you, her ass was this big-

Aamon: Y'know that Ctl is gay, right?

Iris: Wait what. That was a guy?!

Anyway, Charolette keeps being a S Tier hater so she just went "Fine I'll do it mysel-" then she gets stabbed by a dagger forged by heavenly-materials by Aamon (common Aamon W) and threatens to poison Alistor so yeah. Now you may be wondering what about Raziel, Scourge and etc? Well they actually matter during metropolis so lemme summarize their previous existence! Raziel: When Remy kinda, **left** He got fucking PSTD! and He just uh said "Being homeless is better then this realm's military–industrial complex and obsession with the military..." So he became homeless in the physical plane. Scourge: Wow, I am a innocent kid who actually isn't evil and has good hetro parents! I hope I won't get raped and abused by my boyfriend who forced into a relationship I 100% didn't want! Peril: Sex Esoteric- Wait you not supposed to be here until a few arcs later. Well actually.

During the Divine Expansion, the ASEA was formed (Esoteric wasn't there, he was only dealing with assassinations and corruption at the time) Dom used a vial he made that basically gained him immortality and resistant to like cognitohazards.

Now, you may be wondering where is Remedy's civil wars or wars yet? Well, They did happen but they were very small and short until. In 1829. Remedy was like a annoying barrier for several countries, why? well because Remedy was a Australia-sized island in the Atlantic and it fucked up alot of travel routes and Remedy was constantly fighting. They absolutely did not want to get into it nor get near it. But they had too, so what did they do? Fund the Rebels and put the war's on whole another levels. **The Trail of Island War** The Trail of Island War used to be a small rebel conflict, The "White Front" was being pushed back to their main hubs. Remedy's Army had thought it was going to end like all the other's... until they saw Western Militaries. For year's Remedy had a good relationships with Europe but they betrayed her. The war went a full 360, Her massive country was falling, Bigger and Bigger cities were invaded until the greater capital area was only left.

The Hateno palace. It was in clear sight for the rebels and the betrayers. Until, Remedy's Office Door's had open. A Purple skin man with a broken mask but with a even broken face had walked to her, Who was this man? Remedy asked herself. Remedy just left those thoughts, she might aswell listen what this lunatic would say. The Man addressed himself formally. The Man had talked about things Remedy had no knowledge of, She was more advanced herself and yet it felt like a god talking to man like they were the same. as he spoke, he said a line that made her fill her thoughts that spanned from fear to wonder. "I can help you fix this and your relationships in a 30 minutes." He said this in the most serious way, she asked how and he said "You don't need to know, but you do need to know. Is that I need your country to stay for decades. I know you need this so just accept my deal and never question or ask" Remedy agreed. Remedy in a few minutes as her capital was dying. she felt trapped in her biggest government building. Until she saw her Window. And she saw.. vehicles that held massive guns on them and that hundreds of bullets couldn't defeat. She saw Guns that we're faster and stronger. And in the sky's she saw metal birds that shot and dropped. ***Don't ask me how this became sex jokes to somewhat serious, I'm off on Coffee and Energy Drinks rn***

In a matter of minutes as he said, the rebels and the European army's were destroyed. In a day and a few hours, her country was saved, she told man "How?! How did you get all this?!" and The Man said to her "as I say again, never question or ask. Your relationship with the Europeans is gonna be fixed in a few short years, just in case. I will be giving you ships/warships that are as advanced as the weapons you saw."

Now, your gotta be wondering, where is Ctl, Izzy, Oliver and Remy? Well, Ctl was still in Remedy as the Commanding General. Izzy was in America in the North (Ctl used his Portals to talk to him) and Oliver and Remy was in Prussia. After the war, Izzy came back while Oliver and Remy would keep switching to Prussia and Remedy. During Mid-Late 1800s, the whole world in general advanced a lot. (America made the atomic bomb just after the Civil war) the reason they advanced that hard was due to the "advanced vehicles" that blasted their armies and they really wanted to copy it and due to Angels and Demons being more and more relevant. They paid them to help.

The civil wars still appeared but they had been done in days or months. Now, the Dutch we're still mad at the war even though everyone else "Moved Along" and because they we're really horrible in the war. Every battle they were in, they either lost or lost god knows amount of soldier's. And they lost their biggest amount of soldier's with a small Remedian army that was commanded by Ctl. (and also Ctl being the Commanding General) The Dutch hired someone named Rhain Constantin :Skull:

So the Ctl assassination, kinda went from a gun to a **fucking brawl between a Demon and a fucking vampire (yes, vampires are canon :Skull:)** and well, sometimes Ctl's pocket dimesions/pocket portals kinda fuck up but they are harmless. Well unless the portal fucked up because the portal is literally **in you** (Basically, Ctl can spawn portals anywhere and it can faze through things like People) so ctl's portal is fazed in Rhain, should be a easy fix, Ctl is just gonna delete the portal and- Oh fuck, **The Black Substance/Void Substance is infecting Rhain and by ALOT... *And he fucking exploded... I really hope that guy will never appear again in another arc***

Also in Divine Expansion, Ctl and Oliver got extreme power-boost, so yeah...

## World at Stake (Part 1)

World at Stake (Part 1) starts with War Crimes! Remedy's Government had been fighting rebels again (Jesus Christ this bitch really needs to nuke her country at this point) and Remedy had a alliance with the German Empire at the time (Oliver had with that :skull:) and just what. **A FUCKING WORLD WAR!** Remedy obviously sided with the central powers, because of obvious fucking reasons and also because she wanted some colonies. They used their Naval Power to screw with entente resources and help fight the Entente's colonies. Mid-Way in the war, she kinda got horribly beat by the United States until she stops fucking sinking their ships. **she stopped fighting until they joined in the last year of the war.** Now let's she what happened with the characters, Oliver fought for Germany which I am not surprised (Don't question on how he joined) Remy stayed in a Cabin that Oliver owned in the woods, Ctl and Izzy didn't really fought, Ctl only did land-battles and Remedy's government didn't want their actually decent commander to be at Africa and Izzy was only a soldier in the Army Branch. They did fight when Remedy went back to the war but they didn't really do anything

## Metropolis

After WW1, The Main 4 lore become less well, cool? **well for like a few years** they actually had peaceful life's now but the side characters...

Iris, Scourge and Raziel moved to Kinoko, Remedy which like. The Montenegro of Remedy. So when they we're living in there, Iris kept being a fucking assassin and a bounty hunter, Raziel and Scourge lived together in a Apartment and well, **Yknow how I said Scourge had a very bad relationship? Yeah so, decades after. Raziel and Scourge kinda bashed their head out and put him in a trash-bag, crushed him and threw his body in a trashcan.** Also Oliver joined the Nazi party.
