- ― Limbo
Limbo is an Apostle of Gerand Darmoor, a General of the High Flora Central Army, and a partial Specter.
Story
Past
At an unknown point in time, Limbo became an Apostle of Gerand Darmoor and underwent a ritual that transformed him into a Specter. Though it remains unconfirmed, it is likely that Limbo possesses a 'special soul', which allowed him to retain his mind and body, coexisting with his inner Specter. Limbo was highly interested in the Abyssal Source located within the Abyss, where Specter souls originated from, as the Abyssal Source contained all the knowledge in the world.
The Western Front
During the Flora Civil War, Limbo led the campaign on the Western Front of Grandis, which included operations on the moon of Verdel. Under his leadership as Brigadier General, the High Flora army began the process of wiping out the native life on Verdel, as well as to collect bioenergy from the moon. Eventually, one of soldiers - Second Lieutenant Ark - grew disillusioned with the war, realizing that Darmoor's "War for Peace" was nothing more than genocide. While eavesdropping on a private meeting, Ark was horrified to learn that Limbo had the power to transform into a Specter at will. He also discovered that Limbo was aware of the enemy's plan to launch a surprise attack on the High Flora base. Before he could warn the enemy that the High Flora were ready for them, Ark was caught by Limbo. As Ark had revealed himself to be a traitor, Limbo decided to conduct a ritual that would transform him into a Specter. However, Second Lieutenant Albaire, who was Ark's best friend, learned about Limbo's plans. Though Albaire strongly disagreed with Ark's betrayal, he did everything that he could to stop the ritual, as he had made a promise to Ark during their cadet days that he would always protect him. With the ritual interrupted, Ark's transformation into a Specter was disrupted, resulting in a large vortex forming that nearly obliterated the moon's entire surface. As a result, the High Flora evacuated and abandoned their plans for the Western Front, leaving Ark to remain unconscious for many years.
The Second Operation
Decades after the end of the Flora Civil War, Limbo planned a second operation to harvest the bioenergy of Verdel. During a meeting between Darmoor and his Apostles at the Aboris Royal Palace, Limbo reported that everything was proceeding according to schedule. One of the Apostles admitted that they found the situation entertaining, as the vortex from the failed Specter ritual had finally dissipated, with their scouts reporting that there would be little resistance from Verdel's current inhabitants. They noted that it was good news, considering that Limbo's last attack on the moon had been a failure. Limbo told them that Albaire, who had been promoted to Colonel, would soon arrive on Verdel in order to ensure that everything went smoothly.
Soon after, Albaire led the High Flora to Verdel, where he encountered Ark attempting to defend a group of nomads who were trying to escape the moon. Though Ark attempted to stop the operation, Albaire easily defeated Ark and proceeded to drain Verdel's life energy, though Ark and the others managed to escape in an old spaceship. During another meeting at Aboris, one of the Apostles asked if the plan for the Western Front had finally been completed, noting that there had been interference this time as well, with only minimal power to show for it. They added that the first time the ritual had been disrupted, it had destroyed the moon's entire surface, and with the second failure being nearly as disastrous, they felt that it was time to cut their losses. However, Limbo was pleased to know that Ark was still alive after so long, as Ark held the key to accessing the Abyssal Source.
Invasion of Maple World
Some time after the second operation to Verdel, Limbo was promoted from Brigadier General to General, replacing the silver trimmings on his uniform with golden ones. After the fusion of Maple World and Grandis, Limbo led the Specter army to the border between Maple World and Grandis, where his forces engaged in skirmishes against Eckhart and his Night Walkers, which had been dispatched to defend the border to Maple World. On Limbo's orders, several Alliance soldiers were kidnapped and transferred to Aboris for interrogation by Ypsilon. After Kaling was dispatched to Shangri-La in order to recover the World Heart, Limbo temporarily left the forefront of the battle in order to attend a meeting at the Aboris Royal Palace between Darmoor and his Apostles. There, Ypsilon reported that he had uncovered interesting information from a Cygnus Knight by extracting their memories. In those memories, he had witnessed the battle of Tenebris, in which Empress Cygnus had used her partially-awakened Transcendent powers in order to shield the fleet from Gloom's attack. Additionally, he had also seen memories of Shinsoo, which revealed that she was an Ancient God. Realizing that Cygnus was a Transcendent-in-waiting, Darmoor ordered Reina to invade Maple World and extract the powers of both Cygnus and Shinsoo. During the invasion of Maple World, Eckhart and his Night Walkers continued holding the line against the Specter army, which was described by Neinheart as the most dangerous battlefront. However, due to Reina's attack on Ereve and her subsequent kidnapping of the Empress, Eckhart and his forces were forced to stop defending the border in order to retreat and reinforce the Cygnus Knights in Ereve and rescue Cygnus.
Invasion of Carcion
Seizing the Sanctuary
Following the battle of Arteria, Limbo was dispatched to Carcion in order to take the powers of Keira, the Ancient God of Carcion. Along with himself and Albaire, he was accompanied by Shensung and Xula, two elders of Grandis who had sided with Darmoor, so that they could conduct their Adversary experiments for Darmoor. Aboard their battleship, Limbo informed Albaire that Reina had finished securing the power of the Transcendent-in-waiting, though Albaire pointed out that the power of Shinsoo had been absorbed into the World Heart. Limbo noted disdainfully that even with the power of the gods bestowed upon her, Reina couldn't even manage to secure Shinsoo's power, noting that it spoke volumes about her capabilities. He then ordered Albaire to increase the ship's speed, as they would be arriving at the sanctuary soon.
Upon hearing Limbo give the order to increase speed, Shensung approached him and smirked before asking whether he was feeling nervous that he wouldn't be able to successfully complete his mission, mockingly reassuring him not to worry, as that was what he and Xula were here for. An annoyed Limbo warned him to remain quiet so long as they were in his ship. He then wondered exasperatedly why Darmoor had requested the help of such fools, to which Shensung amusedly retorted that it was because the elders' powers were on another level entirely compared to Limbo's Specter powers. Xula then scolded Shensung and told him to have some manners, reminding him that it has been their own decision to accompany Limbo. Shensung dismissively replied that he understood that they only had to do what they had come for, to which Xula told him that though she understood that he was excited about coming outside for the first time in a long time, she reminded him that it was only the beginning for them. She then apologized to Limbo for Shensung's insolence and promised him that they wouldn't interfere with his work. Limbo huffed and told Xula to see to it that they didn't hinder his plans. Just then, Albaire reported that they had arrived, to which Limbo laughed and told him not to let a single person get away.
After invading Carcion, Limbo ordered his Specter army to attack the sanctuary where Keira was sealed. Knowing that the snake and turtle Anima of Carcion were at war, Limbo unleashed several experiments created by Shensung - Specters which had the power to disguise themselves as people - and had them transform in to snake and turtle Anima to confuse the enemy, making each believe that the other had turned traitor. After seizing control of the sanctuary, Limbo, Albaire, and the elders found Keira sealed inside a large water bubble. Limbo opened his Flora wings and attempted to use the Transcendent powers that Darmoor had bestowed upon him in order to shatter the barrier, though his attacks had no effect. Shensung noted that the barrier which Keira had created was powerful, and that it wouldn't break unless the entire thing were to be damaged for a sustained period of time. Limbo seethed at being forced to waste his time, to which Albaire offered to have the ships barrage the shield.
However, Limbo told him that they couldn't afford to use such extreme measures if they wanted to fill the crystal properly. He supposed aloud that he would use his valuable time to pluck Keira out himself, noting that such a method would undoubtedly work. He then asked Albaire how effective the experiments that the ‘monkey idiot' had created were, to which Albaire replied that they were working effectively, as the Anima had not yet discovered the identity of the experiments. Limbo nodded, noting that there was no easier target than an enemy in the midst of infighting. Limbo then turned to the elders and asked them whether it was true that the Anima were strengthened by the divine blessings of the area, which Shensung confirmed, explaining that though it was faint, the water around Carcion held the power of the gods, which was likely why the Anima were currently embroiled in a civil war. Limbo noted that it was good news for them and ordered Albaire to carry out their plan by subjugating the Anima with the experiment. He then bestowed a portion of his own portion of Darmoor's Transcendent powers upon Albaire in order to give him the strength to seize control of Carcion. After Albaire and the elders left, Limbo laughed and noted to himself that though he wasn't the type to enjoy something so sadistic, it seemed as though he would truly enjoy himself this time.
Destroying the Barrier
Limbo then continued attempting to destroy the barrier around Keira, using his opened wings to boost his strength as he unleashed powerful attacks using Darmoor's Transcendent powers. In order to weaken Keira's resolve, he ordered the elders to bring their test subjects to the sanctuary so that he could exploit Keira's care for her people by torturing them. Soon after, Shensung and Xula arrived and found the area polluted with Darmoor's power, as well as several kidnapped turtle and snake Anima lying on the floor. Shensung amusedly noted that he had been wondering what Limbo was doing with the Anima after requesting for them to be sent to the temple after experimentation. He asked Limbo whether he was screening the Anima while Keira watched, laughing that he had poor taste in hobbies. Limbo asked Shensung whether he was feeling empathy for the Anima, adding that they would be dead either way, causing Keira to stir uncomfortably within her seal. Shensung laughed and noted that he hadn't heard the word ‘empathy' in a while, adding that it seemed that even an Apostle of Darmoor could believe the elders as being capable of having humanity. At his words, however, Xula told Shensung to stop being so crass. Just then, Albaire reported that the Adversary had been sighted with two members of the Alliance and Gaon, with the news of Gaon's arrival surprising both Shensung and Xula. Limbo asked Albaire to buy him time until he could finish his work. Before sending him off, Limbo also warned Albaire not to disappoint him a second time, to which Albaire paused for a moment before nodding.
After the Alliance united the snake and turtle Anima together, the group marched united against Limbo and his army. At the sanctuary, Albaire reported to Limbo that the Adversary would soon arrive. He then apologized for failing to eliminate the Black Tortoise, though Limbo told him that it wasn't an issue, as the barrier would soon be destroyed. He then turned to address Keira and noted that she was quite soft-hearted for a god, given how easily she had yielded simply because a few meaningless lives had been lost. Albaire remained silent at Limbo's words until Limbo turned back to him and ordered him to face the enemy, though he added that he wished to deal the final blow himself after taking Keira's power. He also ordered Albaire to dispose of the remaining Anima, and to make the enemy watch, adding that he was sure that they would enjoy the show. After Albaire left to carry out his orders, Xula asked Shensung whether he was thinking of staying, pointing out that they had already gathered enough data, and that they could safely conclude that there was no suitable candidate amongst the Anima in Carcion. Shensung agreed, adding that they ought to get back to the others. He then addressed Limbo and informed him that they were heading back before things became noisy, to which Limbo merely snapped at him to leave if they were done, adding that they would only get in his way. The elders then opened up a hanging scroll that sent them into an unknown place with a dark skyline.
Power of the Gods
Soon after, the Adversary and Gaon managed to break into the sanctuary, where they were shocked to find that Limbo had successfully broken through the barrier, with Keira collapsed on the floor. Limbo was amused to find that they had manage to come this far and decided to give them an opportunity. Just as the Adversary advanced, however, Albaire landed down between them, blocking them from reaching Limbo. Using Darmoor's Transcendent powers, Limbo absorbed Keira, amazed at what the power of the gods felt like. He noted that it was completely different from anything that he had seen before, declaring that with its power, he was one step closer to reaching the Abyssal Source. He then decided to take the chance to enjoy himself with his new powers before sealing Keira into the draining crystal. He ordered Albaire to send the Adversary and Gaon, whom he called ‘those fools', over to him before flying up towards the treetop. Albaire told the Adversary to be honored that the general wished to face them himself in battle before opening his wings and flying away.[4] Though the Adversary was frustrated that Albaire had gotten away, Gaon reminded them that Keira was their top priority. He noted that Keira had been absorbed by Limbo, who fortunately hadn't yet used the draining crystal which had stolen Cygnus' powers. Because of this, Gaon hoped that they would still be able to save Keira.
At the top of the tree, the Adversary and Gaon confronted Limbo, whose body glowed with divine power. The Adversary demanded to know what Limbo had done to Keira, to which Limbo laughed and noted that the Adversary was quite entertaining, and that he wished to see for himself why Darmoor had taken such an interest in them. He then transformed himself into his enormous Specter form.[5] Immediately, Limbo pulled the Adversary into an unknown space, where he towered over them and laughed that after making countless attempts to reach the Source, he had finally succeeded in replicating an illusory space of a region close to the Source. He then challenged the Adversary to see just how long they could endure inside his space, warning them that it would be difficult, even for them, to last in a space that he fully controlled. The Adversary then fought against the Specters that Limbo created, eventually breaking out of the space and returning to the real world. As the Adversary and Gaon continued fighting, they noted that no matter how much damage they dealt, Limbo continued recovering from any damage sustained at an abnormally fast rate. Gaon realized that at the rate that things were going, they would run out of stamina, while Limbo would easily regenerate. Limbo then told the Adversary that he had been looking forward to fighting them ever since hearing about how they had gotten rid of Kaling, though he noted that they were still far from complete. Just as he attempted to finish things, however, Keira manifested before them in her watery form. She explained that Limbo had absorbed her without being able to fully control her powers, which had allowed her to regain some of her strength. She told them that she would damage him from the inside, which would weaken his recovery rate and give them the opportunity to defeat him.
As Keira disappeared, Gaon began attacking Limbo, while the Adversary took out the World Heart and attempted to absorb Limbo's stolen power. However, the World Heart refused to obey their will, giving Limbo the opening to gravely wound Gaon. Refusing to give up, however, the Adversary continued pouring all their will into the World Heart, which finally responded with a brilliant light that extracted Keira's powers from within Limbo, allowing her to manifest her physical form once again. As Keira fell unconscious, Gaon grabbed her and held her in his arms, just as Claudine, Eckhart, and the Anima arrived. The Anima immediately rushed to Keira's side and asked her whether she was okay. Keira explained that she was unharmed, though Gaon and the Adversary were wounded. Claudine began treating Gaon and explained that while his life wasn't in danger, his wounds were quite serious, for which she would give him emergency treatment. She then checked on the Adversary, who told them that they were fine, adding that they needed to secure Limbo first. Eckhart told them to let him handle it and began approaching Limbo, who was crawling on the ground and attempting to get up again. Limbo seethed in fury at being reduced to such a state by the likes of them, to which Eckhart dryly told Limbo to spare him the pointless resistance. However, Limbo declared that he refused to be captured and began gathering all his power within his body into a single spot. He then began laughing at the shocked expression on their faces and declared that he would detonate himself and create an explosion large enough to wipe out all of Carcion and everything in its vicinity. A shocked Claudine realized that there was nothing that they could do to stop it, as attacking him would result in them setting off the detonation themselves.
However, the Anima of Carcion - vowing to protect their goddess and their hope - pooled together all their divine blessings together into a large energy bubble, hoping to use it to defeat Limbo. Just then, however, Keira teleported everyone a safe distance away from Limbo before choosing to face him herself. Duhan and Hinya called out to Keira, warning her that she hadn't yet recovered her strength. However, Keira replied that it was something that she had to do, as she would no longer allow anyone else to be sacrificed. She explained that the reason why the Anima had fought against one another for so long, and why Darmoor had attacked Carcion and killed so many of her people was all because of the power that she possessed. She then declared that she would disappear from the world, and that she would take her damned power of the gods along with her. Rising into the air, Keira flew into the center of the ball of divine energy, channeling every ounce of her power into defeating Limbo. As she pushed with all her might, Eckhart marveled in awe at the incredible amount of power that she was producing. However, Claudine was shocked to realize that even in spite of Keira's immense strength, Limbo was still pushing her back.
Defeat and Escape
Realizing that they needed to do something to help, the Adversary suddenly recalled that the World Heart had absorbed some of Keira's power throughout their time in Carcion. Summoning all their willpower, the Adversary controlled the World Heart in order to expel all of Keira's power that it had stored within itself, giving it back to its owner in order to help her defeat Limbo once and for all. As the light of the World Heart faded away, Limbo collapsed onto the ground once again, his power completely spent. Keira was surprised to know that the Adversary had possessed some of her power, and she was even more surprised to learn about the World Heart and its properties, noting that much had happened while she had been asleep. Turning to Gaon, she also noted that Gaon had suffered immensely as well, though he assured her that it was nothing compared to what she had gone through, adding that he was glad that she was alright. Eckhart then approached Limbo in order to secure and interrogate him. With the elders and Albaire having already left, the Adversary and the others followed Eckhart in order to confront Limbo. Eckhart reminded Limbo that he was completely powerless, and that he ought to answer their questions if he valued his life. Though Limbo seethed at having been defeated, Eckhart ignored him and instead demanded to know why Darmoor was targeting the power of the Transcendents and the Ancient Gods. At his words, Limbo immediately growled at Eckhart not to speak Darmoor's name so flippantly, adding that lower lifeforms such as them would never be able to comprehend Darmoor's grand purpose. Realizing that they wouldn't get a straight answer, the Adversary instead asked Limbo what the purpose of the elders' experiments were with the captured Anima.
However, Limbo merely laughed and claimed that such experiments were nothing more than idle distractions for Darmoor to pass his time, declaring that their sole mission was the destruction of all life. Gaon was furious to know that the captured Anima had been killed for nothing more than a pastime, though Eckhart simply noted that Limbo could still afford to offer some clarification, adding that he would hear the rest of his explanations in the dungeons of Ereve. Suddenly, however, a flash of red lightning struck down from the sky, forcing Eckhart to jump back. In another flash of lightning, Havoc landed in front of Limbo, causing the Adversary to immediately recognize him from Cernium. Havoc looked down at Limbo and noted that the Alliance had done quite a number on him. He added that Limbo should have used the crystal right away, and that he was going to lose his job at this rate.
Limbo was overjoyed to see Havoc, laughing that Darmoor had indeed been watching over him after all. He immediately began groveling, begging Havoc to save him quickly. However, Havoc gruffly asked Limbo how he could shamelessly ask to be rescued when he hadn't even finished doing the job that he had been sent for. Havoc then used a draining crystal to absorb Keira's power before taking Limbo and fleeing. The pair returned back to the Aboris Royal Palace, where they finished giving their report on the mission to Carcion. Darmoor was interested to know that the Adversary had managed to consciously use the World Heart, to which Havoc added that the Adversary had also made a mess of Limbo. Alarmed by how Darmoor would take it, Limbo began fearfully stammering that he hadn't planned on it, swearing that it wouldn't happen ever again. However, Darmoor cut Limbo off and assured him that he wasn't disappointed in him. He then explained that it was time, noting that he could hear the prayers meant for the false gods. He then ordered the Apostles to bring them to him, declaring that he would bring forth a true paradise. From his throne, Darmoor held up a draining crystal, with many others floating throughout the room, filled with the power of countless other gods.
Morning Star Banquet
Following the battle of Tallahart, Limbo and the other Apostles were summoned to Aboris to attend the Morning Star Banquet, where Darmoor dispatched the Apostle Ressa to convey his orders. After Reina arrived somewhat late, Ressa greeted her and noted that it had been a while, adding that her arrival meant that everyone was now here. Limbo snidely remarked on Reina's tardiness, noting that she seemed quite arrogant just for having successfully completed a single mission. Reina coolly retorted that it was better than failing a mission, causing Limbo to fume in embarrassment. Ypsilon then asked whether none of the other Apostles were coming, to which Ressa explained that the others regrettably couldn't attend, as they were busy with their own missions. Havoc demanded to know why Asha and Darmoor weren't coming, noting how ridiculous the situation was. At Havoc's insolent outburst, Ypsilon immediately gave him an austere look as Baldrix warned him to speak about the God-King with respect. Havoc grinned and noted that he had always wanted to fight Baldrix and wondered whether he should do it now before laughing and claiming that it had just been a joke, though he warned Baldrix to be careful.
Ressa then defused the situation by explaining that since the God-King didn't attend such banquets, he – as the God-King's messenger – had come in Darmoor's stead. At Ressa's words, Havoc asked why the God-King had summoned the Apostles to a New Year's banquet that he himself wasn't even attending, noting that Darmoor must have something important to convey. Upon seeing Limbo's discomfort at Darmoor's absence, Ressa laughed and assured him that he didn't think that Darmoor would blame him for his failure at Carcion. Limbo laughed sheepishly and noted that the God-King was merciful as expected, to which Ypsilon cut in and replied that he had no time for useless discussion before demanding to know what Darmoor wished to convey. Baldrix then revealed that it was time to accelerate the great plan, to which a surprised Reina and Ypsilon asked whether Darmoor intended to begin the great culling even sooner. Ressa replied that since the Vessel was being completed faster than anticipated, there was no need to delay any further. He added that it was all Darmoor's will, and that he had come to convey the God-King's next orders.
During the banquet, the Adversary - who had disguised themselves and infiltrated the event - began monitoring Limbo, immediately noticing that Limbo was sweating and appeared to be quite anxious, causing them to wonder whether something was going on. Just then, Limbo called them over and noted that since they were a servant, they would know whether Darmoor would be attending the banquet or not. He ordered them to tell him quickly, to which the Adversary hesitantly confirmed that they knew. An impatient Limbo anxiously snapped at them to give them a straight answer as to whether he would be attending the banquet at all, even for a short while. When the Adversary was unable to give him a direct answer, however, Limbo sent them away, seething that a servant wouldn't know such a thing. As the Adversary walked off, Limbo began speaking aloud to himself, noting that while there was no reason to stay if Darmoor wouldn't be attending, he would also be standing out unnecessarily if he were to leave and Darmoor arrived later. He fretted over what to do, as he needed to quietly get through his next mission, praying that his failure at Carcion would be forgotten if he performed well. As he continued muttering anxiously, the Adversary noted to themselves that Limbo seemed quite worried about being held accountable for his colossal failure.

Limbo greets him as Second Lieutenant Ark and notes that the Specter inside him seems to be growing smoothly. He then adds that since it's been so long, he'll give Ark an opportunity. Just then, Albaire drops down and blocks him, allowing Limbo to absorb Keira. Limbo then orders Albaire to allow Ark through before flying away. Albaire tells Ark that Limbo seems to have some business with him. He then adds that if Ark survives the encounter, he'll make sure to kill Ark himself next time. Ark then tells Albaire to wait, explaining that there's something that he needs to say. However, Gaon interrupts Ark and reminds him that they need to save Keira. Albaire then opens his wings and flies away, leaving Ark frustrated that Albaire ran away.

When Ark demands to know what Limbo did to Keira, Limbo laughs and replies that he should at least say hello first to his boss after seeing each other for the first time in a long time. However, Ark retorts that Limbo isn't his boss, and that he doesn't work for him anymore. Limbo then asks Ark whether he's denying the noble blood of the High Flora that flows within him. He declares that Ark can never escape the call, noting that he must be feeling the power of the Abyss engulfing his body. He then adds that if it hadn't been for Darmoor's orders, he would've already claimed Ark's soul by now. Ark invites Limbo to try and take his soul if he can, vowing to defeat him and save Keira. Limbo then declares that he'll see for himself why Darmoor is so interested in Ark before transforming into a Specter.
