No one was left who could remember how it had happened,
how the world had fallen under darkness.
At least no one who would do anything.
No one who would oppose the magical girls.
No one who would challenge their power,
or so Queen Lumina believed...

I remember it like it was yesterday. There was a dark cloud hanging over humanity. The Scetzolg Empire- that damned legion of monsters and nightmares- seemed to have came out of nowhere. Humanity was at a scramble. Nothing we had could fight them, it got to the point we launched nukes at them- all to no effect.
But then, a bright shining light appeared to us all.
WE ARE YOUR HOPE
Magical Girls. If you were around back when there was internet, you might've been familiar a few of those Japanese cartoons about them- they were like they came out of these shows with their sparkles and their bright colors an-
I'm getting ahead of myself. Apologies, reminiscing about an age that ended a little over a decade and a half ago. Where was I?... Oh. Yes...
WE KEEP YOU SAFE
These magical girls, lead by the most powerful of them all; Lumina, were able to combat the Scetzolg Empire successfully. Almost overnight, humanity's losing battle was turned around. And these seeming saviors didn't stop there! What we had considered to be world problems- things like world hunger, famine, pollution, and incurable diseases- were also cured! For a moment, humanity had achieved a golden age of peace, all thanks to our saviors.
And then that moment ended.
WE HAVE CONTROL
Lumina and her “Love Shines,” that's what she called them at least, warned humanity about how the Scetzolg Empire was still around but in hiding; that the empire was able to overtake the world so quickly from the start because our most powerful leaders had secretly been under their power. Whatever doubts we had of this were erased when the Prime Minister of the UK was exorcised by Luminia herself on live, national television.
It became mandatory to get checked for lingering Scetzolg influence. People diagnosed with “dark hearts” were dragged in front of a Love Shine to be purified. Mental asylums, prisons, and even juvenile halls were deemed breeding grounds for dark hearts, and were opened up to Love Shines to just waltz in and work their magic.
One moment you would have a deranged sociopath, and after a Love Shine flashes them with hearts, stars, and horseshoes, that person would put Mr. Rogers to shame. Ironically, we started calling those purified “Jolly Rogers”. If you ever see a Roger, you’ll know them by the unnatural sparkles permanently twinkling away in their eyes.
Quite the contrast to today's "benevolent and loving" dictatorship by that damned Queen Lumina. Skies used to be more than just happy and blue, without a cloud in sight. Christ, there used to be days were there weren't rainbows...
This planet is doomed to a darkness that can only be likened to a little girl's dollhouse. Fitting, since Lumina and her favorite Love Shines haven't aged one bit.
Even now there is hope for man!
But then, another shining light appeared. One ready to fight tooth and nail to fix this goddamn mess.
That's where we step in.
Welcome to the Dark Light Rebellion, gentlemen.
You're like the rest of us. Tired of what the world has become. Tired of our lack of freedom. Tired of everything that went wrong in this world.
Well, we're fighting back. There have been rebellions before. Rebellions crushed by Lumina's Love Knights, those damned technicolored freaks that patrol the cities with Love Shines for the rare criminal and more often than not, those with the potential to become magical girls to be brainwashed into service.
But the difference between them and us? We've found technology of the Scetzolg Empire, as well as managed to reverse engineer the Love Knights' armor into armor of our own. Seems like a few magical girls have turned against Lumina too.
We're ending Lumina's reign. We're restoring humanity to the last age. An age of freedom.
There is a fire that will burn through the streets of the city, and we will stand in the light.
We will stand in the light,
you and I.
You and I.
We can bring back the light
-Light Up the Night, The Protomen.
