Nightshade History

Nightshade: Main Antagonistic Force

Nightshade's Origin:​ 

• No one truly knows how or when Nightshade began

• Some of the old elves refuse to believe that it could have been before their time, they certainly never heard of it in the shadows 

• but when you ask the right elves they will admit that there was never a time where they didn't feel some eval lurking in the shadows even if their name was always kept well guarded 

• even if no one really knows when it began it seems that everyone knows it was not started out of an eval intent, but quite the opposite 

• the founders saw the same issue of division and hatred that my main characters see in their time

• yet with nightshade, over time, as corrupt people got into power, the direction started to fade and although their purpose of bringing the world back together held strong it was bent and twisted

• until nightshade and everyone in it truly started to believe that the kingdoms were beyond repair. there was too much distrust, division, differences, and hatred for them to ever heal 

• therefore Nightshade set out to tear down the world, peace by peace they would weaken and separate the kingdoms until they were too far gone to fight back 

• then they would tear them down and build up one kingdom, under one monarch

• and that is the mission of nightshade and how they went from something akin to New dawn and became the monstrosity they are today

Nightshade's plan:​ 

• Tear down all the kingdoms 

  • Stop communication 

  • Stop trade 

  • Isolate kingdoms 

  • Start taking and training children 

  • Integrate into the kingdoms 

    • Into the top high ranking positions 

    • And into the civilians to know what the gossip and opinions of the normal people were. 

  • Then send kingdoms into a frenzy 

    • Kidnap heirs from the kingdoms

  • Blame kidnapping on other kingdoms 

    • Frame it as the last straw 

  • While the armies are away weakening each other

  • Activate agents and kidnap monarchs 

  • Use heirs as blackmail to make monarchs sign contract that hands over their children’s right to rule to Adria. 

  • Adria would make the decree to build a new city where everyone would come and be together 

  • She would be the one and only queen 

  • They will make a new United Kingdom under one ruler. 

• Rebuild as one​​​​​​
