In the age of the gods, before the demon god Zelnaris appeared.

A vast universe was born from the shock and chaos of a great explosion,
and within it, a certain being created the world.

Known as the Four Great Gods, those who possessed the power of creation were
Ellora, Goddess of Light; Parna, Goddess of Water; Nerhes, God of Fire; and Terio, God of Darkness.

When the great gods scattered the materials of creation, the world was eventually born.
Afterward, the gods created many races and Familiars.
While the gods were creating life, a meteor fell in the west of the continent,
and a gigantic dragon emerged from within it.

The dragon made its home in the land torn apart by the meteor's impact.
The gods also respected the dragon's majesty,
and the land came to be known as 'the land where the dragon awakened.'

In 20 BC, the demon god Zelnaris appeared on the continent of Midellas.

Sensing his immense magical power, the gods awoke from their long slumber.
They foresaw that Zelnaris would mercilessly destroy countless living beings
who opposed him.

Realizing that they could not stop the demon god by their own power alone,
the gods decided to fight alongside the peace-loving beings who lived across the continent.

Among the races created by the Four Great Gods, the most prosperous—
humans, elves, Krokuns, and Muramis—followed the gods' prophecy that a crisis would befall the world
and, after lengthy deliberation, formed an alliance to oppose the demon god Zelnaris.

Named the Alliance of Light, it eventually succeeded in sealing Zelnaris
after a long and fierce battle.

Salant, a descendant of the demon god who grew up harboring a deep hatred of humans,
awakened the demon army from its long slumber.

Salant devised a plan to destroy the world
and sought to revive the demon god sealed within the sanctuary.

To do so, he needed to find the great bloodline that had created the Demonic Stone.

The person Salant sought was Princess Rania, born 20 years earlier
alongside the prophet Chimer's ominous prophecy:
'She will one day become queen of the Hakanas Kingdom and create a world of demons.'

When Princess Rania was young,
she discovered a relic of Ellora, Goddess of Light, hidden beneath the castle,
and awakened the power of the goddess that had been sleeping within her.

Years later, troubled by her mysterious power,
Princess Rania set out for Akrat Plains
to meet the prophet Chimer.

Learning of this, Salant's forces attacked Rania's party
and succeeded in abducting the princess.

The protagonist, who served as her guardian knight, fought with everything they had to protect her,
but was also captured.

The protagonist was then rescued by Crow, leader of the Shadow Clan, who had come to save the princess,
and the story begins as they escape from Salant Prison.
