she who once owned the moon

Once upon a time, in the ancient land of Greece, there lived a goddess named Selene. She was the embodiment of the moon, with her radiant beauty casting a silver glow across the night sky. Selene was revered by mortals and gods alike for her grace and wisdom. However, as the centuries passed, Selene grew disheartened by the actions of humanity. She watched as greed, corruption, and violence consumed the hearts of men. Despite her efforts to guide them towards peace and harmony, they continued to stray from the path of righteousness.

In her sorrow and anger, Selene decided to take action. She summoned the powers of the night and cast a powerful curse upon those who had forsaken her teachings. From that moment on, any mortal who succumbed to their darkest desires would be transformed into creatures of the night, cursed to roam the earth forevermore. These creatures, known as vampires, could only survive by feeding on the blood of the living. Selene hoped that this curse would serve as a punishment for their sins and a reminder of the consequences of their actions.

As the centuries passed, tales of the cursed creatures spread far and wide. Mortals whispered of the dark beings that lurked in the shadows, striking fear into the hearts of those who dared to venture out after sunset. Despite the chaos unleashed by her curse, Selene remained vigilant, watching over both mortals and vampires alike. She hoped that one day, humanity would learn from their mistakes and embrace the light once more.

As the centuries passed, Selene's despair only grew deeper. Despite her efforts to guide humanity towards the light, darkness continued to spread across the land. In her loneliness, she found solace in the company of a vampire, drawn to his mysterious allure and the promise of companionship. But Selene's love for the vampire was her undoing. In a moment of weakness, she allowed him to drink from her, unaware of the betrayal lurking within his icy gaze. As his fangs pierced her flesh, Selene felt a searing pain unlike anything she had ever known.

The curse she had unleashed upon the world recoiled upon her with a vengeance. In that moment, Selene was transformed into a creature of darkness herself, her once-goddess form twisted and contorted into a hellish visage. Her beautiful wings became gnarled and twisted, sprouting jagged thorns that dripped with venomous malice. Horns erupted from her forehead, a crown of darkness to mark her fall from grace. And her once-gentle eyes now burned with an insatiable hunger, thirsting for the blood of the living.

Cast out from the realm of the gods, Selene became a pariah among both mortals and immortals alike. She wandered the earth, consumed by her own despair and rage, a shadow of her former self. But even in her darkest moments, Selene could not escape the echoes of her past. The creatures she had cursed roamed the night, a constant reminder of her folly and the price of her hubris.

And so, the once-goddess of the moon became a demon of the night, forever haunted by the consequences of her own creation. Her punishment was a testament to the fickle nature of fate and the danger of tampering with powers beyond mortal comprehension.

Throughout the years, she no longer named herself as Selene and go by the name Kang Seulgi, the once-goddess turned demon, roamed the earth in search of a cure for her curse, she encountered countless challenges and obstacles along the way. Her demonic appearance struck fear into the hearts of mortals, and she found herself shunned and reviled wherever she went.

Despite her newfound identity, Seulgi could not escape the memories of her past life as Selene. Deep within the recesses of her mind, fragments of her former self whispered of a cure, a way to break free from the shackles of her curse. But try as she might, Seulgi found herself unable to access the knowledge she so desperately sought.

Driven by desperation and determination, Seulgi embarked on a journey across the world, seeking out ancient texts, wise sages, and powerful sorcerers in her quest for redemption. Along the way, she encountered both allies and adversaries, each offering cryptic clues and dangerous temptations in equal measure.

But as the years stretched on and Seulgi's search grew ever more desperate, she began to lose hope. The weight of her curse pressed down upon her like a heavy burden, threatening to consume her soul and extinguish the last flicker of humanity within her. Yet even in her darkest moments, Seulgi refused to give up. For deep down, she knew that redemption was still within her reach, if only she could unlock the secrets of her past and harness the power of her true self once more.

And so, Kang Seulgi continued to wander the earth, a solitary figure in the endless expanse of the night, her heart filled with determination and her soul ablaze with the fervent hope of salvation. Though the road ahead was long and fraught with peril, she would not rest until she had found a way to reclaim her lost humanity and break the curse that bound her to the shadows for eternity.

Despite being a once goddess, Seulgi prefers to keep her past self from others, she still hated the fact that the curse she had created backfired on her.
