Angels VS Demons // SSD Internationals 2024

Storyline: It all starts with the Arcadians (The grey KWPN’S) and the Dystopian (The black KWPN’S). For centuries the Dystopian were peacefully living amongst the Arcadians as their equals. A civil war broke out due to many disagreements which led to the Arcadians believing that the Dystopian were evil. Their beliefs were wrong, but they still cast out the Dystopian and believed they were cursed. From that moment on, the Dystopian were referred to as the Cursed. (00:00 - 1:25) The routine starts very calm, only the Arcadians are a part of the start. You can see two diamond formations; these resemble love, determination and power. Diamonds are one of the strongest natural materials on earth, the Arcadians have strong beliefs and hope that these symbols will give them what they resemble. The Arcadians are just going through their normal day expecting nothing. Some Arcadians disappear throughout the start, this is because they're going to stand guard. Suddenly the sentries see something and warn the other Arcadians. The four Arcadians are unexpectedly being attacked by the Cursed; they want revenge. (1:25 - 2:50) The moment of realization came for the Arcadians, they made a grave mistake assuming the Dystopian were cursed. The four front soldiers of the Cursed rapidly harassed the four Arcadians (01:25), the Arcadians were caught by total surprise when even more former Dystopian rushed to get them. However, this was merely a distraction so that the others could try to get the Arcadians from the back. They all join in on the flower and it's a little bit calmer which gave them both time to call for reinforcements. It gets very heated once they are on the pinwheel and a lot of Arcadians and Cursed threaten to attack each other. Very caught up in the moment someone calls desperately for a truce, the Cursed disappear to discuss the matter of the subject. The Arcadians get more and more stressed but manage to calm down and think the situation through. (2:50 - 4:08) The Cursed are done discussing and are willing to debate with the Arcadians. The discussion starts steady, and for a moment it seems there can actually be a peaceful outcome. But the debate starts to intensify, and the tension keeps building. (the music does as well) The Cursed feel that they're being treated unfairly and don't agree with the Arcadians, but the Arcadians don't want to look from their point of view. Then it escalates, the Cursed are raging mad and they become reckless, which leads to them suffering great losses. (4:08- 5:01) The Arcadians shortly celebrate their victory and consult about the fate of the Cursed, whether they're going to forgive the Cursed or not. Until unexpectedly the four front soldiers of the Cursed came back. Only this time the Cursed are different, all of their rage is replaced with this last hope of getting their old lives back. Some Arcadians start to understand the Cursed leading to a divide amongst the Arcadians making them weaker. The Cursed go for one last attempt to try and convince the Arcadians that they are not evil, they enclose the Arcadians and sent out two from the middle. The cursed convince the Arcadians that both teams get some time to think, so when they come back together, they can come up with a solution. (5:01 - 5:25) With all the Arcadians out of the picture the Cursed have some time alone to discuss the situation. They come up with a solution and re call the Arcadians. (5:25 - 5:54) For one last time the Arcadians give everything they have, but that is not needed. The Cursed explain their idea and the Arcadians agree. The Arcadians are finally convinced that the Cursed are not actually cursed and that the whole situation was just a big misunderstanding. They join in together on two arrows which resemble direction and determination, the Arcadians and the Cursed are finally on the same page and want to go in the same direction, from then on, they are referred to as the Dystopian again.
