We have all heard the legend of Pandora's Box.
But there is an untold chapter to this story.
Once the demons were released from the box, the worlds strongest men came together and merged their strength to seal the horde inside one man.
They named this man Legion.
Legion was kept in isolation from the world, guarded by many, he was kept on an island, he could not be chained, he would break the chains.
He could not be spoken to, his voice would shatter the mind of any.
Legion died, and The demons escaped.

Again, the worlds strongest men banded together to seal them inside one man.
The new Legion.
And so this cycle continued through the generations until present time.

Kamouri Arkay wandered through the forest shortly after he left his village, marked as a missing nin, he was the perfect candidate for the new Legion.
Legion had recently died, and the worlds men were searching for another.
They saw Arkay and immediately kidnapped him from the forest.
Arkay awoke in a dark chamber, chained to a stone table.

There were twelve men around him chanting, he recognized one of the voices as that of his old friend Tsugaru.
The men continued to chant, Arkay heard screams, many screams.
He looked down to his naked torso and saw a symbol on his stomach, there were dark, seemingly shadows, being swallowed by the symbol, the shadows being pulled from mid air, they seemingly reached out for salvation before being engulfed by the symbol.
Arkays sight blackened and he fell asleep again.

He awoke on a shoreline, looking around as he was confused and scared.
But he seemed... Further back in his head.
As if he was behind someone elses eyes.
He heard many voices, a horde of deep ressonating voices.
They spoke in unison, and arkay found himself saying the words, "We are Legion, for we are many."

Arkay spent one week on the island, doing things he had not ordered himself to do.
The horde was controlling his physical body, so he spend that week focusing on his mental strength and he overthrew the horde and took back his body.
He escaped from the island, but occasionally the horde, Legion, rebels against Arkays own power and takes brief control of his body, lashing out in every way possible.
