# History

In a world struck by hunger and years of war between nations, kings and houses for control of the few remaining fertile territories have left a dark, barren and hopeless land. They have left a dark, waste and hopeless land. Each passing year is a long and grim punishment to the eyes of men who see an uncertain future, as if a dense fog is obscuring their sight and twisting their souls. A name is the only wealth that can grant a man a certain status and recognition. The rest of men have nothing, human life is not worth, in too many occasions life is less than a piece of clothing with no holes in it or a bowl of cold, thin soup.&#x20;

Yet, amongst so much pain and despair, a whisper travels across the continent. A shy rumor of a little explored land, a nameless island, said to give men a new beginning. A place where the past does not matter, where new legends can be forged and where certain materials are hidden with which to make weapons and armor with properties beyond human imagination.&#x20;

It is said that reaching this land is not easy, men must let themselves be captured by slavers in the west, as only those have the knowledge to cross the dense mist and the sharp cliffs that surround it. Only the strongest of men survive the journey across the sea to end up imprisoned and awaiting their chance to prove their value.
