backstory(Hamlet one day had suddenly found his father dead. This filled him with grief, anger, etc. He returned to Denmark. He found that his uncle, Claudius, had seized the throne, and married the wife of Hamlet's father, or, the former king. He had only thought the throne was passed onto him. Until, suddenly, a ghost appeared. This ghost mimicked Hamlet's father, and it claims that his uncle has killed him. And he demands revenge. Hamlet thought through it, and instead of rushing through, he decided to take things slowly. He mimicked a play for his uncle and others, and the uncle seems distressed, confirming his guilt. Hamlet was instantly filled with anger, grief, and vengeance. This drove him to madness, and for his only mission to be to pursue his revenge towards his uncle. He hesitates, and doubts himself, but he was too blinded by his dad's death and the vengeance he wanted, and so he pushed those doubts and hesitation away, and pursued through, even if it costed lives of many others. This blind rage drives him to cause the deaths of many others. Only then, he finally made it to the throne room, where he met his uncle. He dueled him. Ultimately, leading to the fatal end of his uncle. His father, finally avenged. He looked around. He realized . . . He had killed the whole royal family. His blind rage cause the end of the royal family entirely. The guilt of this consumed Hamlet. He was swallowed whole by the guilt and hatred. Leading him down into a low point of his life. He walked out, around the kingdom, walking around the dark alleys and areas. Staying low as he, and his blade, was too, covered in the blood of the royal family, shedded by the hands of their son. He was wandering along the outside walls of the kingdom, filled with guilt, and despair. He saw 2 bright lights, almost like a bus. And at last, it was the Limbus Company. They stopped right next to him, and out came a woman. She introduced herself as "Faust". And she claimed Hamlet had looked roughed up, swallowed, desperate, and low at the moment. Hamlet didn't say much, but slightly nodded. Faust looked back into the bus, saying something that you can't quite make out, but then she looked back. She offered Hamlet a deal. The Limbus Company could grant what he wanted most, wether that be wiping their past clean, escaping debt, or reversing tragic mistakes. But, they had to work for the Limbus Company, and help them find "Golden Bough's." Hamlet, after pondering on the decision, decided to agree. Afterall, the Limbus Companies tactic is to offer your deepest desire. So, it'd be almost impossible to refuse for most. They had him sign a contract, which constricted him from ever quitting until all 12 golden boughs were retrieved. Only then, will it be fufilled, that he may undo the past.

Summary: Hamlet returned to Denmark after the sudden death of his father, expecting to inherit the throne. Instead, he discovered his uncle, Claudius, had taken the crown and married his late father's wife. Soon after, the ghost of his father appeared before him, revealing that Claudius had murdered him and demanding revenge. Refusing to act recklessly, Hamlet devised a plan to expose the truth. He staged a play mirroring the murder, and Claudius' horrified reaction confirmed his guilt. Consumed by grief, rage, and vengeance, Hamlet abandoned his hesitation and devoted himself entirely to avenging his father. In his pursuit, countless lives were lost by his own hand. At last, Hamlet confronted Claudius in the throne room and slew him, finally avenging his father. But when the battle ended, he realized his obsession had destroyed the entire royal family—including himself in all but name. The victory brought no peace, only unbearable guilt. With his blade stained by the blood of his own family, Hamlet wandered Denmark's empty streets, broken by regret and hatred for what he had become. Near the kingdom's walls, two bright lights emerged through the darkness. A bus stopped before him, and a woman named Faust stepped out. Seeing his despair, Faust offered him a contract with Limbus Company. In exchange for helping recover the twelve Golden Boughs, they promised to grant his deepest wish: the chance to undo his greatest mistake. With nothing left to lose, Hamlet accepted, signing a contract that bound him to the Company until every Golden Bough had been recovered. Only then could his past finally be rewritten.)

Canto (LCB exclusive info, basically what happened like RIGHT prior to the events of the scenario in the chat.): (The Mephistopheles receives information regarding a Golden Bough hidden beneath the center of the ruins of a fallen district known as the Crownless Nest, a place once ruled by a powerful family that annihilated itself during a succession conflict. The moment the location appears on the monitor, Hamlet grows visibly uncomfortable.

The bus arrives. The district is abandoned. Broken castles stand among towering City architecture. The streets are littered with statues depicting kings and princes with their heads removed.

As the group progresses deep in, Hamlet begins hearing a familiar voice. A voice nobody else can hear. His father's. Or at least, what sounds like his father. The voice constantly speaks, and it tells hamlet he was justified, and that claudius had deserved death. It tells him all other deaths were necessary. The company continued on.

Hamlet remained calm mainly, but his composure cracks when he encounters disfigured, wrong versions of his family members, manifested from his very guilt.

Until, the party walks into a theatre-looking area. There was masked actors, they started to act. A little after, Hamlet realized. These actors were reenacting his life. Every detail, accurate. Too accurate. It portrays many details nobody else should know but Hamlet, and at the end of it, it shows Hamlet massacring the entire cast. Curtains fall, and there was an audience. They all stood up and clapped. As Hamlet and the sinners watched from the side-stage. Hamlet looked closer, and noticed that every single one of the thousands were all wearing Hamlet's face.

The sinners progressed even deeper and deeper, as the district around them kept getting more distorted and unstable as they got closer to the golden bough. The manifestations of his guilt and hate that took form of the lives he took, became more distorted and less like the actual family members. They got deeper, until the voice in his head, it told him that there was one last murder needed to set everything right. The voice, sounding like his father, told Hamlet to follow his lead, and it Hamlet followed with little hesitation. He departed from the sinners, and followed it. The other sinners, unable to hear the voice in his head, didn't know why he departed. So they quickly followed him.

Proelium Fatale

Hamlet walked in and saw the original throne room. The throne still standing despite all the destructed area around it. Atop of it sat the final enemy, the last one guarding the Golden Bough. Hamlet shouted out to them.

They turned around. And revealed, it was Hamlet. Not his uncle, not any other enemy. It was himself. The man he had became after what had happened. The bloodstained heir. A final manifestation of all the last guilt and hatred left in Hamlet.

He wore the king's crown, but it was fused directly into his skull. His body covered by the shadows of everyone who died from his actions. The sinners and Hamlet prepared for battle, and so the battle went on to retrieve the golden bough.

End of Canto

The Golden Bough is finally extracted successfully by the sinners. Which triggers the collapse of the distorted, unstable districts structure. He hears that voice one last time. His father again, as a ghost.

"You have spent years chasing the dead." "Why not try living for once?."

The voice was silent after that, and Hamlet had also remained silent.

He followed the sinners back to the Mephistopheles, and he boarded the bus without looking back. Dante noticed something unusual. For the first time, he noticed Hamlet's hands were no longer trembling. For now, at least.)]
