[Incident Report #0] The Widowfire Incident: The Awakening of Dark YouruptFiled by: Head Maid Rose

  For the Records of Lady Chihaya’s Eternal Library

  Overview:The Widowfire Incident marks the critical event that led to the first appearance of Dark Yourupt. Taking place two years after the end of the Final War, this tragedy began as a routine return trip across the Singularity Line—a boundary separating ordered creation from unstable outer zones. Yourupt, then the last active Royal Guard, was accompanied by his wife Aurora and two students—Rin Arashi and Kaelion Durmist—as part of an initiative to rebuild the fallen Royal Guard.

  What should have been a hopeful mission turned into a disaster that would change creation permanently.

  Event Summary: While returning from a week of training beyond the Singularity Line, Yourupt’s group was ambushed by a group of unidentified hooded figures. These attackers were later confirmed to be led by King Zephyros, the son of the late Dragon King Draco, though lost during the collapse of the Vermillion Realm.

  Aurora stayed behind to hold the attackers off, giving Yourupt and the two students a chance to escape. She was eventually overwhelmed and killed. Shortly after, Yourupt was surrounded with no escape, and both Rin and Kaelion were slain in front of him.

  This was the final breaking point.

  The Birth of Dark Yourupt: For years, Yourupt had endured immense grief, survivor’s guilt, and the burden of being the last Royal Guard. The death of his wife and students shattered the last part of his restraint.

  The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

  In that moment, Dark Yourupt—a dormant version of himself born from repressed suffering—fully took over. Unlike previous appearances where his void side would surface temporarily, this transformation was complete, permanent, and catastrophic.

  Dark Yourupt abandoned all former duties. He rejected balance, peace, and memory. He blamed the structure of the realms and their rulers for the pain he had endured. His first act was to begin a campaign of destruction against the Unknown Realms, hunting down sources of power, stability, and authority.

  Aftermath and Implications: The Widowfire Incident did not immediately draw attention beyond local dimensional observers. It was not until several realms in the Outer Belt were attacked and destabilized that other powers took notice of Dark Yourupt’s emergence.

  While this event did not destroy any conceptual realm, it set the stage for the larger catastrophe to come—the Vermillion Incident, which would follow months later.

  Lady Chihaya has confirmed that the Widowfire Incident marks the last recorded sighting of Yourupt as he was known. From this point onward, only

  Dark Yourupt remained.

  Conclusion: The Widowfire Incident was not a large-scale battle or realm-wide disaster. It was something smaller—but no less important. A personal loss that ignited one of the greatest threats in recorded history. It is a reminder that even the strongest among us can break, and that in those fractures, something worse can emerge.

  Let this record serve as a warning to all future guardians and historians: do not ignore the cost of unresolved grief.
