One thousand years ago, the holy world of Terra was a modest land filled with fantastical creatures, vibrant domains, and a community of races dedicated to familial relationships, unity, and peace. But one day, the blue sky was blotched with dark clouds, and the world shook with a fierce tremor. The inhabitants of Terra felt a monstrous and vicious presence emerge from the very depths of the world’s core. A being unheard of in this time of peace. A godlike entity that tipped the balance of nature and man, dark and light, good and evil. The Elves, Dwarves, Humans, and other races had different names for this beast, but they agreed on a singular title to encapsulate this unnatural phenomenon: Demon King. It pillaged the people and ravaged the land, raising an army of undead creatures, demonic killers, and corrupted souls. The world's races were defenseless from the onslaught, and all hope seemed lost. But, as if the heavens responded to the cries of the mortals, six heroes blessed with divine gifts were born unto the world. After ten long years, the heroes repelled the Demon King and sealed him and his armies deep beneath the Elven forest. The tree of life encases the villains in a prison of mystical roots, never to be seen again. But that was what the world believed. Now, a thousand years since the final battle, the Demon King emerges once more, and his reign is more fierce and terrible than ever before! A new set of heroes is born, seeking to end this terrible monster’s reign for good. The battle for the fate of the world continues; this is their story.
