The Void is governed by some mysterious and mystical figures who are very powerful. Of course at first, we questioned the source of their power. But we just assumed that they constantly feed on the brains of politicians in your world—making yours imbecile and gutless, and ours much savvier. Well, anyway, in this world, they’re called:

​

The Order

​

The Order are unknown entities that manifest themselves as disembodied voices within the halls of the castle. It is difficult to discern a specific characteristic to their voices, and harder still to identify the exact location from which they emanate. They do not speak a specific language yet those who are granted the privilege to hear them are able to understand. They are thought to be all-knowing, all-seeing entities who work as an overseer to the affairs of The Void, tasked with serving justice and punishment to the otherwise ungoverned members of the supernatural world.

 

But the thing is… that’s what they want everyone to know.

 

As we’ve said earlier, The Order yields an incomprehensible amount of power. Them spewing out big words of justice is just the façade. Because in reality, The Order is using us, Specters, as a tool for their unceasing reign. As it turns out, the spirits that we haunt, the ones that we eventually present to them, are given fake judgement and trial that usually doesn’t favor their side. As a result, The Order devours them, prolonging their own lifeline and authority.  

 

“Why don’t you do something about it? Put an end to their wrongdoings?” 

 

We are at the mercy of The Order. They have us wrapped around their fingers—toying with our memories, masking their ruthlessness with justice, and making us see only what they want us to, are only few of the things that hinder us from exposing their mayhem. In our rather weak defense, it’s difficult to catch a criminal who has the ability to repress your memories in a snap. Moreover, if we defy The Order, they would just consume our souls, ceasing us to exist, hindering us from moving on to a happy afterlife. Perhaps one day we could do something about this. Perhaps one day we would dare. Just put your trust in us!
