The Cerberus Tripart-Cerberus

As you might have noticed above, Cerberus is a three-part series, meaning that there is a Cerberus 1, 2, and 3. The first of the series, simply titled "Cerberus", revolves around a character named Volsung, who is a "human boy with fox ears". He is -not- kitsune. If he were, he'd have a tail as well. The ears have a speacial meaning to the story, which I'm not sure I'll reveal just yet. Anyway, Volsung wakes up one day under a tree and finds that he has no memory of who he is, where he's from, anything. He wonders from place to place and soon finds that the world he's in is actually a video game to many people (though not everyone). Determined to know who he is and why he's in a place that apparently isn't real to the thousands of strange characters running about, he and a significant other (in the original story it was a girl named Kit, but I'm considering throwing in a guy instead, still trying to decide) travel across the world searching for clues to his past, as well as his ties to a crazy, sadistic stalker named Yiska [E-s-ka] who appears from time to time to monolog and strike fear into the hearts of the two. As the story progresses, it's found that Yiska and Volsung are far more connected than first thought and are locked in an infinite battle between balance and chaos (more on this later).

That's the main jist of the story, it's much deeper than that, but I'll touch on the rest later. If you have any comments or questions feel free to comment me.
