Nagito Komaeda is a resident of the Kingdom of Novoselic, he was generally avoided by most residents due to their beliefs of Nagito being cursed, but he was still able to make friends otherwise, Chiaki Nanami and Hajime Hinata. Nagito lived a relatively enjoyable life, but it was all taken away when the Despair Kingdom attacked.

Nagito’s memory of the attack was crystal clear, he remembered how he watched Despair Warriors effortlessly break down the defences that were always thought to be strong and unbreakable. Screams filled the air as residents were ruthlessly slaughtered and everything he knew was burnt to the ground.

Nagito was currently amidst the ruins in the aftermath, he couldn’t even tell what time it was since the sky was red from being painted with fire and smoke. Everyone else who made it out alive were in disarray, grieving for the fallen, trying to help the injured or attempting to salvage anything within the debris. Nagito stood still, he couldn’t help but feel this was somewhat all his fault somehow.

“Is that..?” Nagito’s voice was even more raspy from the smoke inhalation as he attempted to look around, he was covered in soot and could barely even see, but he thought he saw one of his friends.
