The Lore
Only you can save them.The world was once bright—alive with the harmony of clans, schools, and guilds. Together, they built civilizations of power, knowledge, and strength, bound by an enduring peace. Every generation, when a threat arose that no single people could withstand, champions from all walks of life would unite. These adventuring bands became legends, their deeds echoing through history.Then came the Avarice.It did not descend on wings of fire or rise from the abyss. It seeped into men’s hearts, whispering of power, of what could be theirs alone. Trust withered. Brotherhood became suspicion. The great halls fell silent, their banners torn and forgotten. The world turned inward, breaking apart into fractured ruins. Blood spilled where wisdom once ruled. What was built over centuries crumbled in moments.Only you can save them.The world cannot mend itself. The old gods slumber, their voices drowned by the chaos of men. But you—you—can rise above the ruin. Gather those who still have the courage to stand. Forge a new fellowship, seek the gods, demand their favor, become their avatar.There are others that will kill for the power you seek. But the world does not need your mercy. It needs you. You must cut them down—not for glory, not for vengeance, but because the power must be yours.After all, only you can save them.
