Past[]
Long ago before the rise of Ilia, Satan caused chaos across Grastaea. However, he soon had to face the archangels led by the sister of Sandalphon, Metatron. With their power, Satan was slain, and his pieces scattered throughout Grastaea, eventually forming into the archdemons known as the Sinister Dominion.
Metatron rallied the angels and fought the archdemons, eventually creating copies of her fellow archangels to seal the archdemons away and then sealed those vessels away in another world in an effort to make sure the demons would never return. However, as the church demanded for Metatron to share info on how to create mimicries, she responded by instead providing them with the original archangels whom she wiped the memories about the mimicries from and erased any knowledge of the mimicries to ensure nobody would look into them.
Sandalphon was the only one whose memories were not altered. Instead, a spell was cast so she couldn't talk about it unless all the other archangels were slain. Satan himself became a distant memory with few people actually knowing of his existence.
Satan Revival Plan[]
Many years later, a group begins a plan to break the seal that Metatron placed on Satan. Loki convinces the Auspex Origa and the Apostle Basileus that Satan's power would grant them the strength needed to stop the Progenitor.
With their plan in motion, Basileus starts handing out sealing stones to various people and tricking them into using the stone for power while also working on freeing the five archdemons. While he is eventually outed as a traitor, he continues his plans and manages to free the Sinister Dominion.
Faith Forsaken[]
With the Archdemons free, the group get to work on the next part of the plan which is to sacrifice 666 lives and then offer one of their own souls to revive Satan.
With the apostles framed for criminal activity, the group manipulate them into killing the last life needed allowing for Origa to merge and allow Satan's rebirth. However, it is then revealed by Loki that Satan can't be controlled. With Satan free after having absorbed Origa, He kills the archangels and starts laying waste to Grams.
However, Satan seals himself away due to needing more time to recover, placing miasma around so nobody can get to him. Unknown to him, Sandalphon survived his attack and gives information about the mimicries to the Halidom party and apostles, who use this knowledge to revive the other archangels.
With the archangels back, the party realise that Satan can only keep producing miasma as long as he has human minds to feed on, and while the Archdemons are capable of supplying him and each other with minds, should the people around Satan be evacuated, his miasma production would be stunted and the Archdemons would be easier to deal with. With Grams's natives and forces such as Leonidas fighting off the Archdemons, the Apostles and Halidom crew get to work taking out Satan. With the cooperation of people all around the world, Satan's miasma barrier is taken down and the party enters. However, Loki reveals himself and using a Sigil, freezes them as he gloats over Satan's revival and how they never anticipated he'd know their plan. Fortunately, the real Harle arrives in the nick of time and, revealing that he found a spell specifically used to seal away Loki, banishes the demon to another realm.
As Satan awakens, the Apostles and Euden's party prepare to engage. Using the Sigil's power, they weaken him greatly and just before he can take flight and land one final attack Pinon, charging up a powerful Sanctus Arrow, shoots out of the sky and down to the ground where he drops a Sacred Shard. Using the Sacred Shard, Zena frees Origa from the Demonlord's grasp. Origa apologises to the group for allowing her heart to be swayed by the demons and, knowing that Satan will soon awaken, seals her own soul and Satan's away, leaving her body comatose and inanimate.
Origa's Adventurer Story[]
Sealed within the depths of Origa's mind by the Sacred Shard, Satan plots to make the Auspex despair and use her powers to free him. He traps her in a near perfect world where she's living peacefully with all her loved ones, but twists events so that no matter what she does, tragedy strikes and she's killed, either by Templars led by a corrupt bishop or a mysterious assassin. However during a. conversation with that world's Regina, Origa realises her true circumstances and decides to lure Satan out by allowing herself to be killed over and over again.
Finally, tiring of this charade, Satan reveals himself to Origa, mockingly congratulating her for discovering his plot. However, he decides to take Origa's powers by force and attacks, twisting the world around her to endlessly torture her. As she suffers, Satan tells Origa that no matter what she does, she can never truly atone for all the slaughter she has created but instead the Auspex affirms that she will instead try to ensure the happiness of others. Realising that despite Satan's claims, the world she's in now is just a dream the two share, Origa musters up the willpower to warp it herself, summoning enough holy mana to weaken Satan's soul and absorb his power. With that, using Satan's form, Origa drifts throughout space, slowly harnessing his power while waiting for the chance to reunite with Regina.
Advent of The Origin[]
In the advent of Xenos's return, the Halidom crew realise that they are missing one Auspex needed to defeat the Progenitor: Origa, the Water Auspex. With Regina and Cleo reporting that Origa's body has exited a state of rigor mortis and that her soul is beginning to stir again, Nedrick uses faerie magic to allow Euden and the party to assist her in laying low Satan. In Origa's subconscious, they enter a memory of Satan's attack on Grams, where they witness Satan laying waste to the city. Origa arrives and reassures the party that the demon they see before them is merely a memory, though he is just as strong. Having seen a vision of the future, she surmises that Euden and the party have sought her help in fighting Xenos and agrees to and together, they work on weakening Satan before undoing the seal to free Origa and defeat him once and for all.
With Satan badly injured, Euden and the party exit Origa's mind and prepare to finish him off in the real world. Undoing the seal using the Dawnshard, Origa reawakens and Satan emerges as the party prepare to face him off. However, Zethia finds her pact with Bahamut forcibly activated as the Genesiswyrm possesses her, slaying Satan and using his body as a vessel to reawaken his true form, the Origin. Zethia reveals that in her dreams, she has learned that the Origin plans on destroying the world to defeat Xenos, and as demons are malevolent beings created in a similar vein to dragons, the Origin could use Satan's body to revive himself.
