Prologue
Long ago in an ancient time, there was a demon, who lead a clan of dark creatures, spreading worldwide fear and destruction. But on the 100th day, the demon was defeated by the Keeper of the Orb and his disciples (the Orb is an artifact that is said to have created the world they live in), since then the demon was known as the King of Ninety-Nine Nights. Peace though wouldn't last, the Keeper of the Orb was murdered and the Orb itself split in two, becoming the Orbs of Light and Dark. The Human and Goblin disciples blamed the other over their master's death, took the Light and Dark Orbs respectively and declared war on each other, the conflict would be known in history as the War of Division, eventually the war ended with the Human forces (with aid from the Arff, elves of light) victorious against the Goblins, who retreated far away. The war's end marked the beginning of a great era for Human prosperity.

Time has eventually passed since the War of Division, but now a new war is about to commence. The Goblin King, Dwykfarrio, has amassed a great army, along with the Goblins, he has gained the alliegence of the Orcs, the Arphann (elves of darkness) and the Outland tribes. But rumour has it that Dwykfarrio has also gained support from an ancient demon long thought dead. As the Forces of Dark are beginning to penetrate Human territories, the Maiden of Light, Ectvarr, summons the Temple Knights to organize and lead an army to fight back against the Forces of Dark.

...

And it is then when the tale of the War With No Name begins.

...

...

...
