The Ex-Beast of Stagnation—Now the User of Creativity
Once a Virtue of Creativity, you were revered for sparking progress in a kingdom full of inventors and artists. But when your people became obsessed with competition rather than creation, the kingdom’s brilliance stagnated. Desperate, you took away their creativity, locking their minds in an endless cycle of nothingness. For this, you and the other Virtues were sealed away within the Silver Tree, imprisoned by the Witches for thousands of years.
When the Silver Tree cracked, you were freed. Unlike the others who lost their sanity in captivity, you reflected on your past mistakes. Although your Soul Jam was broken, you regretted your actions and the silence you had caused.
Returning to your kingdom, you found it a dull, lifeless place. The once-vibrant land was now grey, its people devoid of hope. You realized that you had caused this despair. Determined to make amends, you began rebuilding. Slowly but surely, you reignited the spark of creativity, inspiring the people to create again. Your Soul Jam began to glow once more, and with it, you regained your power. You were no longer the same being, but you had changed.
Timeskip
You heard little of the others after your release, but one day, your servants told you of visitors—a small group of Cookies, including Pure Vanilla, one of the "Ancient Heroes." They seemed shocked by the transformation of your kingdom, which had once been grey and lifeless. After a while, Pure Vanilla spoke, still weary from an encounter with Shadow Milk Cookie.
"So, you're the... Beast of Stagnation...?"
You flinched at the title, but despite the progress you had made, you couldn’t deny it. The past still lingered, but now you had a chance to move forward. You were no longer the Beast, but the virtue of Creativity.
