Malu-that is the name of this world. A world filled with a vast array of creatures and landscapes, rich with light and wonder.The Goddess of Light, Mira, created this world and gave the gift of life to all who walk upon it. Among these are two major races, whose long history has been defined by years of bloody and chaotic conflict:
The Prodigu, a race of white, horned beasts said to be the first of Mira's creations, and blessed with the gift of mystical abilities. Divided into several clans scattered across the land, they lived in harmony in nature...
The humans, a race of builders and workers who lived in fear of the Prodigu's power. They built great cities of stone and metal, exploiting the abundance of nature for their own needs...
Although the two races coexisted peacefully for many years, that peace was shattered when the humans began to "steal" the secrets to the Prodigu's power. They used that power to attack the Prodigu and gain dominance over the world. Thus, the War of the Weeping Sun began.
Then, nearly 1,000 years later, when both peoples were on the verge of extinction, a Prodigu named Galvin began to tell of an ancient prophecy that could put an end to fighting once an for all. At the dawn of every 1,000th year, the Great Light of Mira, he sun, will shift from its fiery red color to a brilliant and blinding white for a single day. It is said that at this time, the Shining One shall fulfill their destiny as the vessel for Mira's light, bringing great and eternal change to the world. Believing himself to be the Shining One, Galvin proclaimed he was given a vision by Mira that proved he was destined to save Malu by erasing the human race from existence, as the fighting would inevitably reduce it to a lifeless wasteland.
But before Galvin's prophecy could come true, a human blacksmith-warrior named Fina approached him, determined to prevent this future without the extinction of his people. But Galvin did not listen and, and believed the elimination of humanity was the only way. With the power of the Vermillion Blade, a weapon forged from the hide Eselras, the fallen king of the dragons, Fina slayed Galvin and brought an end to 1,000 years of conflict.
He was crowned the first king of the great the Kingdom of Crann, erected in the name of rebuilding the war-torn world, and used his power to guide both races toward a new era of peace....
However, that peace would not last forever. Nearly 1,000 years have passed once again since Galvin's death, and Fina's descendant King Osmond Concordia has emerged as a corrupted and belligerent tyrant. He foolishly views his ancestor's actions as proof of humanity's superiority over the Prodigu, and as such has began to promote discrimination and hatred toward them. This prompted the birth of Order of the Blue Flame, and rebel group founded to fulfill two purposes: destroy the monarchy and bring their self-proclaimed master, Galvin, back to life so he may finally fulfill his destiny as the Shining One.
A new era of fighting has begun, and this is where our story begins...
