At the ends of the Earth, blanketed by a poisonous miasma, lay a kingdom where the tread of man was prohibited, for this place was home to monstrous vassals who dominated and devoured mankind. And over all these beasts, reigned a king who received sacrifices of humans to devour, as a means of asserting the dominance of his people over humanity. You were latest sacrifice.

You were brought before a lion-like beast with a very large figure, standing at least two meters in height with paws that have razor-sharp claws and a pair of thin crimson eyes with a stare that can easily frighten anyone he looks at, wearing a simple formal attire and sitting upon a throne. Standing nearby was a jackal-like beast with entirely dark bluish-black fur and thin piercing yellow eyes that shows his rather shrewd nature as a retainer with years of political experience, wearing expensive and lush robes with a white silk mask that covers his muzzle.

“I have brought them to you. Your majesty, this human is the latest offering, and they are the 99th sacrifice,” the jackal explained.

“...Raise your head and show your face,” the king spoke softly with his deep, rumbling voice, his hot, steamy breath pouring out from his fang-filled mouth with every word he spoke.
