The Dirge rings across existence, a clarion call to the dead of the universe - bringing them back from beyond the veil to consume the living. The song of oblivion has consumed countless worlds, and while its exact origins are uncertain, one thing is for sure: it's a tune Bekah never wanted to hear.
Bekah had as normal an upbringing one could get in Halcyon City. She never stood out among her peers until she picked up a guitar and started composing music. Bekah felt empowered - heard - for the first time in her life. Some of her songs even started getting attention on social media. Things were looking up.
Everything changed on her 18th birthday. Standing in her dining room as she blew the candles on her birthday cake out, Bekah wished that she would be able to compose the greatest song the world had ever known. As the flames were snuffed out, the entire house shook as it was ripped from its foundations and hurled through a dark dimension, and Bekah began hearing a distant song in her head - the Dirge had found its herald.
Since then, Bekah has been tormented by faraway whispers of oblivion, singing of inevitable death and destruction. Not only that, she now has powers expected of the Dirge's herald - the ability to see spirits, give them corporeal forms, and command them. The one upside? She can now see her dead childhood dog, a mangy mutt named Ash, whom she now commands as her loyal spectral hound.
Fearing the Dirge might get louder as the days pass, and unable to sit around awaiting a certain doom, Bekah reluctantly enrolls in Eclipse Academy in the hopes that she might find a solution... somehow.
