  • The Continents of Shedari and Lebrith
Supporting Cast
  • God of Light Amarus
    Their followers think of them as a gallant, glorious, and wise god. Many of them purify their bodies and mind to suit their image of him in their minds. However, Amarus is actually quite the trickster who entertains himself by bothering Soren in the World In-Between whenever he's bored.
  • Princess Cassian Amulius
    The daughter of Emperor Titus Cicero Amulius. She ran away from the palace after discovering her father's true, hateful and imperialist nature. She dreams of becoming a painter.
  • Florian Antoine Larousse
    The head of the lower nobility House Larousse in Nyxvanus. He has a low-toned voice, and his way of speaking is quite distinguished and warm when listening to the concerns of others he believes have a right to be heard. The commoners of Nyxvanus adore him, and he is known for not placing himself above others simply because his simply owns a noble title.
  • Lexus Diarmad Messala
    A shy antiquarian and scribe who becomes highly excitable when it comes to talking about architecture and history. He originally worked for Emperor Titus Cicero, but was sent along with Doc and the others as a guide on their journey. He made a pact with Bymos, the God of Wisdom, as a child and obtained the Eyes of the Runekeeper as a result.
  • Lucius Cillian Petronius
    A Courier for Emperor Titus Cicero who secretly works as a Speculator. His true objective is to overthrow the monarchy and create a free country where everyone is equal. Charismatic, intelligent, and secretive.
  • Luran
    A handsome and mysterious horticulturalist/botanist from the Summer Fae Court. He seems to charm people with his sincere compliments and wide breadth of knowledge on plants without realizing it. When it comes to others charming him, however, he turns into a flustered mess.
  • Luxifer Vanitas
    Spy for the Queen of Winter and disowned noble of House Vanitas.
  • God of the Dead & Darkness Soren
    Soren is one of the oldest gods in this universe, and one of the first that Malborh (God of Time) created. Soren worked together with Amarus (God of Light) to create the first Fae and humanoids. Soren was once a very violent and war-hungry god who brought about death himself. After Grimshaw was created from his own negative emotions being poured into a statue given to him by Amarus, he has since calmed down and finds his younger self embarrassing.
  • Vice Devotion
    Vice is a Succubus demon who lived his entire 150 years deep within The World In-Between, working as one of Soren's necromancers. He has only recently left after finally managing to escape without being caught, and follows Beer Run Trio around due to his grudge/envy against Illuamor.
