Eternal Conflict? Looking into Humanity's core. Light-hearted and Solemn; to laugh and weep. Hope when history cries out death. An outsider to break the curse?
Political;
Seatus and Es'stus have been destroying each other for hundreds of years. Inevitably, the Seatons—the Defenders—are losing. Desperate to end the battle, The High Marshal, commander of Seaton Defence offers a solution: a solution that can only end in the annihilation of the Es'stons, or the Seatons, or both.
Arrival;
Magen Agasan—outcast from the mythical, telepathic North Ice-Islanders—encounters the enigmatic Centurion Damoclus, who immediately sees Magen’s potential. Damoclus opposes the High Marshal's scheme to end the war, and positions Magen as Swordmaster of Gahon as part of his plot to stop it.
The Es’stons have plans too – spies could lurk behind any face…
Prophesy;
But the North Ice-Islanders haven't abandoned Magen. Concerned with Magen’s resemblance to a hero of myth, they think he might be the one to destroy the 'Dragon Stone' forever. Legend states that the stone imprisons the Evil-One, and holds the power of Dragons. The ‘Dragon Stone’ has been hidden for millennia; something mere mortals shouldn't mess with. Why disturb it now?
Magen doesn't believe in the prophesy, yet cannot deny the feeling that he is being guided - but where?
