One day, a formidable spirit adversary named Envis emerged. He was Riba's longstanding rival, and for years they had clashed, each vying to prove themselves worthy of creating a new species.
The details of the selection process were shrouded in secrecy and regarded as sacred. However, Riba was chosen for the momentous task of creating the new species.
Envis was consumed with fury; this opportunity was a once-in-a-lifetime chance, and he harbored a deep desire to be the one to bring forth a new species
When Ribinas was created, Envis became consumed with jealousy. Over the years, he watched bitterly as her species flourished and spread widely. Envis couldn't help but dwell on the missed
opportunity, constantly questioning his worthiness to create a new species. As Ribinas' popularity soared, Envis' resentment toward her species and Riba herself deepened. Eventually, he resolved to
take matters into his own hands.
One October night, under the full moon, Envis's jealousy transformed into a malevolent power aimed at cursing Riba and the species she had created. He decreed that Ribinas must have an owner,
bound by the magic of their species. If a Ribina reached ten years without an owner, they would perish. The strength of the bond weakened as Ribinas aged without finding an owner in time. The curse
took hold, causing many Ribinas to suffer its negative effects. With only spirits and creatures on Earth, there was no one to claim ownership of the Ribinas.
Envis exulted as he witnessed the population drastically decline. Eventually, Riba discovered that the curse was Envis's doing. A fierce battle ensued, but fueled by his hatred, Envis easily overpowered
Riba and ultimately killed her. Without Riba, the population could no longer grow through creation; they could only propagate through breeding. However, this posed another challenge as Ribinas were solitary
creatures without mates or reproductive abilities.
The Elder Gods, the ones who determine who is worthy of creating species, swiftly discovered Envis's treachery and banished him from their realm. Though they stripped him of much of his power, some
remnants remained beyond their reach. Despite their efforts to undo the curse, it had become deeply ingrained in the Ribinas, rendering it irreversible. Even attempts to revive Riba proved futile, leading them
to fear the species was doomed. However, a glimmer of hope emerged as they conceived a spell to enable Ribinas to reproduce autonomously. They aimed to enhance their fertility to sustain newborns, but the spell
faltered due to an unforeseen disruption.
They discovered that Envis still possessed enough residual power to cast one final curse, which clashed with their ongoing spell intended to enhance Ribinas' fertility for independent reproduction.
The result was that Ribinas ended up with a diminished ability to produce offspring without additional assistance. This setback exhausted Envis's remaining power, rendering him incapable of casting further
curses for a considerable duration. In response, the Elder Gods sealed Envis within a black void, binding him with unbreakable chains to forever contain his power and prevent him from inflicting more curses upon the world.
Afterward, the Elder Gods crafted special items to aid in the reproduction of Ribina newborns and ensure the survival of the species. These items needed owners to bind them with the Ribinas. The Elder Gods embarked
on a journey across different universes until they arrived in the realm of humans. They sought out compassionate owners who could form a bond with the Ribinas, ensuring their peaceful coexistence and the preservation of the species.
But how would they identify these new owners? They soon discovered that individuals could demonstrate their interest in caring for Ribinas by tempting them. The binding process would be complete when the ribbon encircled both the
owner and the Ribina, signifying a successful connection.
The search for owners then begins... Will you become the new owner for the Ribinas and help keep the species alive?
