The War of Visaskarma

Eight hundred years ago, as Visaskarma found itself cleaved into the warring factions of Sliholphin and Vragvirion, Keepsake of the Glory emerged as a pivotal figure. Leading the then Cosmolantis of Visaskarma, he was driven by a strategic, albeit ruthless vision to expedite the end of the war and foster peace through forced negotiations. His plan, executed with cold precision, involved sealing Vragvirion's Eight Warlords into Aliezmus, thus tipping the scales of power drastically in favor of Sliholphin and solidifying the Cosmolantis as the most formidable force in the known realms.

Betrayal and Transport to Aesarthim

The leaders of Sliholphin, however, viewed the growing power of the Cosmolantis with deepening trepidation. In a drastic move fueled by fear and political calculation, they transported Keepsake of the Glory along with his comrades—and inadvertently, several other innocents and locales from Visaskarma—into the alien world of Aesarthim. This act of profound betrayal seeded a deep resentment within Keepsake of the Glory and his comrades against those they once loyally served.

Centuries Later: The Unwritten Narrative

Nearly eight centuries later, the narrative of revenge began to unfurl as the Keepsake of the Silence and her sister discovered an unwritten narrative detailing a pathway back to their original world. While the majority of the group plotted their return to exact vengeance, Keepsake of the Glory, influenced by the passage of the narrative and perhaps a desire for tranquility, chose a different path. He and the Keepsake of the Prosperity sought to discard their past lives and embrace peace within Aesarthim. However, his peaceful existence was shattered when the Keepsake of the Silence sought his participation once more. His refusal led to a catastrophic altercation that inadvertently resulted in the erasure of his wife, Cassandra, by the Keepsake of the Silence. Overwhelmed by despair and loss, the Keepsake of the Glory was driven back into the folds of his former comrades.

Destruction at Legion-God

In a dramatic confrontation at the Fantasix Tower within Legion-God, Keepsake of the Glory faced off against Aeon and Vayne. Proclaiming their ignorance as their sin, he expressed his nihilistic resolve to end the world. After defeating both heroes and destroying the Fantasix Aliezmus, he obliterated their skysworn, eliminating the crew and solidifying his threat.

The Ambush and Alize’s Intervention

As the battle escalated, the Keepsake of the Glory, leading an army of monsters, almost succeeded in eliminating the high-monarch of Legion-God. It was only through the heroic efforts of Aeon and Vayne that the monarch was saved. During a subsequent encounter, as the Keepsake of the Glory prepared to strike a fatal blow, Alize emerged from imprisonment within the Aliezmus and shielded them from his attack. Acknowledging his mission as complete, he declared his allegiance to the Cosmolantis of Visaskarma and strategically retreated from the confrontation.

The Encounter in the Revendread Voidscape

Later, in the eerie quiet of the Revendread Voidscape, the Keepsake of the Glory discovered a mysterious statue, which he identified as a vessel of Visaskarma. Breaking it, he ominously declared the impending end of ignorance and the world. When confronted again by Aeon, Vayne, and a memory-impaired Alize, he unleashed his true might, effortlessly overpowering them, demonstrating his unwavering confidence that Alize would soon remember her past and thus, fulfill the fate he envisioned.

Climactic Reflections and Foreboding Promises

As the narrative unfolds, the Keepsake of the Glory's interactions weaves a complex tapestry of power, betrayal, and destiny. Despite fleeting moments of peace, his life remains inextricably tied to the cosmic machinations and ancient grievances of the Cosmolantis of Visaskarma. With each encounter, he leaves behind a chilling promise of a world reshaped by his hand, a world where every cherished memory and future hope may be irretrievably lost.

Apophis: Tensions Aboard the Skysworn

Aboard the newly operational skysworn, the Keepsake of the Glory oversees the aftermath of the Pendulum Aliezmus's destruction. The Keepsake of the Acclamation, weakened and demoralized with his mask shattered after a confrontation with Aeon and his companions, berates himself for the tactical slip that led to his identity's exposure. Despite the setback, the Keepsake of the Glory reassures him with a dismissive ease, suggesting that their true plans remain shrouded in secrecy, beyond the grasp of their foes. Amidst this exchange, the Keepsake of the Auspicious, ever the provocateur, mocks the Acclamation's failure and volunteers to rectify his blunders. She procures the Sacred Gem of Visaskarma from Keepsake of the Glory, hinting at a sinister strategy soon to unfold, driven by her own dark ambitions.

Daiodiaz: Confrontation and Revelation

As the plot thickens, the Keepsake of the Glory finds himself in the luminous environs of Daiodiaz, walking a path illuminated by diamonds of light that fades into the void. Here, he encounters Fable, who, recognizing his distinctive aura, addresses him by a name known only to those of ethereal understanding. Fable attempts to dissuade him from his path of vengeance, suggesting peace as an alternative. The Keepsake of the Glory, however, rejects her claims of his past decisions to live peacefully, asserting they are fabrications of her imagination. In a swift display of power, he unleashes an attack with the Sacred Gem, though Fable escapes before it connects. Undeterred, the Keepsake of the Glory vows to eliminate her completely should they meet again, his resolve unshaken.

Mementoran: Cosmic Restoration and Battle

In the grand halls of Mementoran Arcadia, following a fierce battle where Vayne and Aeon face the Keepsake of the Discordance, the Keepsake of the Glory emerges to confront the chaos left in their wake. Observing Vayne's critical state, he intervenes, restoring him to full strength. He remarks on the waste it would be to lose such a formidable warrior to the void. Aeon and Vayne then engage in a climactic battle against the Keepsakes, ultimately forcing a retreat but leaving the Keepsake of the Glory to ponder the seriousness with which he must treat these persistent adversaries.

Strategic Gathering and the Promise of an Apocalypse

Later, within the commandeered confines of the Infinity Fortress Skysworn, the Keepsake of the Glory holds counsel with the Keepsake of the Discordance and the Keepsake of the Acclamation. As they discuss their recent encounters and strategies, the Keepsake of the Glory steers the conversation toward their ultimate objectives, reminding them of the grandeur of their plans beyond mere skirmishes. Their dialogue reveals a chilling foresight into a future where their machinations could bring about a catastrophic transformation of reality itself, as they witness the fabric of the void beginning to fracture, signaling the near fruition of their dark designs.

Gashileos: Unraveling Memories and Final Threats

In the surreal landscape of Gashileos, a realm of conceptual and anti-narrative depth, the Keepsake of the Glory's past actions and motives are revisited in a memory sequence invoked by Fable as she aids Aeon's party in understanding the full scope of the Keepsake's plans. Despite the defeats of the Keepsake of the Silence and the Keepsake of the Pride, the Keepsake of the Glory remains undeterred, promising Aeon that the Cosmolantis of Visaskarma's end goals will be realized, foreboding a destruction that could unravel everything Aeon holds dear. Aeon's resolute vow to thwart these ominous plans sets the stage for a cosmic showdown that could decide the fate of all Aesarthim.
