After the Great
War that divided the peoples, the kingdoms of men plunged into a Dark Age that
lasted five hundred years. To heal the lands and restore the light, the great
kings decreed that magic and all that is magical, be it creature, man or
device, shall be cleansed to dust. Creatures born of magic were hunted to
extinction. Any who dared call magic to their hands were butchered in the
streets and afterward their kin were cast out of the known lands or hunted in
the blood sport. The cleansing raged for so long that no human could recall a
time without it and it is in this time that the Dark Lord Sathar returned
from the dark beyond.
The one hope of
the peoples of Ruin Mist was Queen Mother, the elf queen of old. She saw a
way out of everlasting darkness, a path that required the union of the
divided peoples. Yet the Elves of the West did not share her vision. They
thought her mad and answered her call for help with a call to arms. Now for
the first time in recorded history the armies of the West are marching toward
the sacred city of the East and an unholy war where elf must fight elf is inevitable.
To turn back the tides of one war and prepare for another, Queen Mother must
send her most trusted warriors on a perilous journey across the GreatSea,
but what the elves will find if they can reach the far shores cannot be known
for certain.
