“Don’t look into the EYES.”
Welcome to Edena, a world once cradled by harmony, now fractured by secrets.
A vast, magical realm shaped by its many races: the graceful Florists, the instinctive Faunarians, the crafted Formari. Each race was gifted not only with unique abilities and forms.
But something changed.
A rift opened in the sky, no one knows how or why, and from it came the Curse of the ODD EYE.
It began subtly. A strange gleam in someone's eye. A sudden turn of cruelty. A lover whose warmth twisted into obsession. A guardian who destroyed all they once protected. One by one, the blessed fell into madness, and magic warped under an unseen gaze. Like a ghostly presence is behind the person.
"Eyes" began to appear in unnatural places. In trees. In water. In the minds of the cursed. Watching. Waiting. Whispering.
Entire regions collapsed. People became unstable. The Chimeras, once revered, vanished, some say corrupted, others say shattered. Half of Edena is now tainted in darkness.
To protect what was left, the lands closed their borders, shrouding themselves in myth and fear.
Now, Edena slumbers under the weight of forgotten truths.

Until one day, a girl awakens from a coma in a quiet corner of the Florist land. Her name is Elanor.
She remembers nothing but a flower, a rose. A burning world, and a voice whispering "You are the bloom before the storm."
With a flicker of lost magic and the embers of a broken prophecy, Elanor sets off to journey through each land to heal, to uncover, and to remember.
But Edena doesn’t just need saving. It needs forgiving.
Though the curse isn’t as rampant as before, always be wary of the EYE(s). They can be anywhere, everywhere, and nowhere at the same time.
Welcome to Edena, a world once cradled by harmony, now fractured by memory.
A vast magical realm shaped by seven races, each born with a unique way of seeing the world. Through sight, perception, and memory, they shaped Edena’s lands, cultures, and magic.
For a long time, peace endured.
Then something changed.
A great event now known as the Great Blink tore through the sky. From it spread a curse whispered as the Odd Eye.
At first, it was subtle.
A strange gleam in someone’s gaze.
A kind heart turning cruel.
Love twisting into obsession.
Protectors becoming destroyers.
Magic warped, minds fractured, and people felt as though something unseen was always watching.
Eyes began to appear where they should not.
In flowers. In water. In stone.
In dreams. In thoughts. In memory.
Entire regions fell into ruin, becoming what are now known as the Blindlands. Some races vanished from history, others were changed forever. Edena was divided, and the lands closed their borders to survive.
Now, the world moves carefully, afraid of what still watches from the dark.
Until one day, a girl awakens.
Her name is Elanor.
She rises from a long coma in a quiet corner of Verden’s lands, her memories fractured and her magic faint. She remembers only fragments:
a flower,
a rose,
a burning world,
and a voice whispering—
“You are the bloom before the storm.”
Guided by fading memories and an unbroken bond, Elanor begins a journey across Edena’s regions. To heal. To uncover the truth. And to find someone the world calls lost.
But Edena does not only need to be saved.
It needs to be remembered.
And perhaps… forgiven.
For though the curse has quieted, the Eyes remain.
Watching.
Waiting.
Everywhere—and nowhere at all.
