I first found the prologue of "End of Days" on ff.net, thought it was a fascinating premise, and wondered if you would be continuing it at any point. Glad to see there is another chapter! One thing that confused me, a bit - are Sha Jien and Dokugakuji two different people, in this reality? In the first section, Jien comments on Kou's red hair as if they've never met before... yet Kou reminisces to himself about crossing the desert with Doku? *scratches head* Ah well, here's hoping for more of the story!
