"If she could not have New Babylon or New Manhattan, she would take the entire galaxy instead..." Empress of the Egoist Crown, Estefania Morgensen, lived two lives: one which ended with her exile, and the other which began with her reinvention. Born on the Cerulean Moon of the planet Ctesiphon VII, young Estefania was born into a privileged family with connections to the Local Group's elite, and the bug of avariciousness bit her at a very early age. Possessing high levels of ambition and intellect, Estefania had aspirations of being a fashion designer or artist and integrated herself into the Local Group's high society in an attempt to climb the social ladder. However, with such ambition often comes dark personality traits, and Estefania was no exception. Highly manipulative and addicted to social chaos, the teenage future Empress of the Egoist Crown destroyed countless rivals' lives and played the young men in her life for her own personal gain effortlessly, leaving a trail of broken hearts and minds, as well as expensive makeup and hairspray, wherever she went. Eventually, Estefania's ambition got the best of her, and she committed an act so grievous that it led to the death of King Gnosis I of Ctesiphon VII, leading to her exile from her home planet, and the end of her association with the Local Group's elite...or so they believed. Officially, Estefania Morgensen was exiled and dead, never to trouble anyone again. Unofficially, she made her way to the planet Oumi, and was inducted into the Lightbringer Order by her future husband, Divine Emperor Iori Nomato of Heiei Castle. There, over the decades, she waited, formulating a plot that would plunge the entire Local Group into chaos, and from that chaos, her vengeance would be complete. A new society. A new Empire. The childish aspirations of being a famous artist, they were not enough. They never were. You can't outrun her, and you can't outgun her, and there is no escaping the Legions of the Dark Empress and her family...
