War. War never changes.
Even as man learned how to harness crude weapons to fight his own, a secret war had been waged, a war between spectral forces. On one side the Soul Reapers, tasked with protecting the souls of the dead. On the other, the Hollows, beings who whose hunger for souls could never be sated. For thousands of years the two sides fought, most humans could not see them even as they were stalked and defended.
In the year 2012, some said the world would end. It turned out they were right, for the world as man knew it came crashing down. A crisis gripped Soul Society, the after life, where the Soul Reapers resided; a crisis born of the inherent balance between the living and spiritual worlds. The Hollows seized this most critical of times and launched a full scale invasion of the mortal world from their own, Hueco Mundo.
Civilization collapsed almost overnight. The carnage that befell the mortal world only escalated when the Soul Reapers came out in full force; the fight that followed was bloody and brutal, all sides experienced massive causalities. The balance that was so carefully maintained for thousands of years finally came tumbling down. Both Soul Reapers and Hollows found themselves trapped in the mortal world, cut off from their own. Without a means to ferry the souls of the dead to Soul Society, more Hollows began to spring up… and the Soul Reapers, cut off from any means of reinforcement, slowly dwindled in numbers.
Knowing they would be crushed if they could not get new troops, the Soul Reapers broke a taboo; they invaded and occupied Karakura Town. The land was rich in spiritual energy, the natives possessing higher than normal spiritual awareness. The Soul Reapers revealed themselves to the population, and began to draft the most talented into their fold, training them in military tradition that stretched back thousands of years.
Once a normal city, Karakura Town became a fortress, walled off from the rest of the world. Defended from all attackers, the Soul Reapers slowly began to rebuild their numbers at the expense of their duty. For the people outside the walls were left to fend for themselves; it was reasoned that to try and protect them while also building a new force would wear them too thin and cause the collapse of their efforts. Perhaps they were right…
… But all it did was foster a distrust and hatred for those behind the walls. Without any means to protect themselves, the population at large suffered horribly; Hollow attacks were vicious, bodies were found torn to shreds and drained of all life, if they were found at all. The people cried out for salvation; the Quincy answered.
Long has there been a struggle between man and Hollow, and not all who defended against the beasts were Soul Reapers. The Quincy came from all walks of life, but they had one common goal: kill the Hollows. A war once raged between the Quincy and Soul Reapers; the Quincy were seen as a threat to the balance the Soul Reapers kept, as they outright killed Hollows, rather than allowing them to be purified and sent to Soul Society. In the end, the Soul Reapers won, at the seeming cost of the total annihilation of their enemy.
But in the post invasion world, many who awakened to their hidden spiritual powers took up a banner that was long since abandoned, taking to the Hollows in the name of preserving humanity. Every day the Quincy grow in number, and every day they look to Karakura Town; waiting for the moment when the walls will open. Some hope for help, others hope to get in for protection… and many want to take it for their own.
Even as the world burns and souls are consumed, Karakura Town’s walls are being threatened by Hollow and human alike. Skirmishes break out and end all too quickly, but it’s a sign of something more to come. Something bigger, something grander… and ultimately, something far more bloody. All sides are on edge; tension is growing. Soon, it will break and the spirits of all will be tested.
Because war. War never changes.
