In a time long past but never forgotten, when otherworldly beings sought to subjugate every living being in the world of Yvir.
Demons arose from the depths of the darkest pits of the earth, driven by their need to dominate all life.
For years the kingdoms of Yvir fiercely resisted their invasion, but as the dead continued to rise, the future looked bleak.
That is until the mages of Yvir developed a spell to make the demons weaker, eventually the kingdoms fought them back and closed the portals but the war ended at a high cost.

The Commonwealth of Aclarus remained strong even after in the face of the invading demons, they stood as the sole guardian in a world wrought by the underworld, a guardian not just for the elven race but for all.

As the amount of profits grew so did the exploitation, the new industrial laborers were being overworked to death, unfair wages for dangerous conditions, all of this combined was enough to spark protests all across the industrial regions.
