Background: The world has been ravaged by war multiple times, but not like this. The era has led to the rise of a new enemy, surprising the Order (The Order is an army of well trained soldiers clad in blue armor. They reside in the Western Expanse, which stretches towards their blood-rivals, the Knights of Round (More on them later). The Order has a variety of soldiers to assist in the war, such as mages and bladesmen. They seek the union of the world under one ruler to prolong peace within their empire. The Knights of Round are against the union, knowing that they would be as slaves to the Order. They are an army clad in crimson and are much more headlong then their enemies. Regardless of the odds of battle, they still charge forward, seeking to preserve their freedom. Among them are bladesmen and warmages, mages capable of wielding a weapon in battle, but not as profound in thee arts of magic as the Order's own. They remain oblivious to the new threat on the world, knowing that the Order is the new danger's first prey. Among other groups are the Magi, a group of blue-skinned creatures consisting of a complete army of warmages, the Outsiders, who are deserters from the Order and Knights of Round alike, working together despite their differences to stay alive, the Dragoon, former pikemen in the Round's army that have learned dragon lore and often ride their dragons that they raise themselves into battle, and the Nameless Ones, a group of shadowed, always cloaked beings who's history remains unknown and forbidden to study. Legend has it the crafted the two swords of legend. The Gladius and the Eclipse. (You can't choose to be allied to the Nameless Ones, they are merely part of the storyline.) Gladius: A sorcery-imbued shortsword that originates from Levian steel (A very strong metal that is extremely had to craft and can't dent, rust, or dull) and has a regular, leather-wrought grip, which is made from ironwood and reinforced with Levian steel. In fact, it resembles a gladiator's shortsword. Eclipse: An obsidian greatsword tat rivals the strength of Levian steel. The hilt is made to resemble the moon, and ,when in pure moonlight, can absorb the moon's energy to strengthen and repair the blade, if needed. It is said that every soul this blade reaps is stored in the blade for eternity.

So, I hope you enjoy the game. And also, you can only create one character, but if you want, you can delete your previous character to create another.
Startled by Erik's sudden screaming and dark visions, I shuddered. But in this world, visions can mean something. I'd heard of wizards who could tell someone exactly when and how they were going to die, of philosophers who predicted great events throughout history, and even of peasants who saw their own destiny. It wasn't all too far-fetched to think that a soldier's dream might be more than just his imagination acting up in his sleep.
"And what, Erik?" I asked quietly, motioning that all was fine to any other Dragoons that may have woken up. I didn't want to frighten them as I was frightened, as Erik was obviously frightened. Actually, Erik was terrified - the blood had all but drained from his face and his eyes spoke of terrible, terrible things - but I forged on with my question. I had to know what he had seen. "What happened to us?"
I didn't really want to know, but I had to. In the same way that morbid interest forces us to look upon a grievous wound, I was forced to hear Erik's tale, and even the mighty wind that granted me my prowess in battle couldn't stop me from listening to what he had to say.
I can't keep up with all these updates and such, and I get on the internet seldom, so I'll have to stop..... Sorry guys.... But I have to say that I'm glad that I actually got people to play it.
