In the world of Luk, peace was once the only idea on everyone's minds. The mere thought of violence was shunned. Luk was also home to many forms of life, but only three were dominate. There were the humans, ordinary in characteristics and individually weak, but together, can be a force to be reckon with, the Mondus, who took the appearance of humans but with blue skin and red eyes. They were known to have great intellects, especially in the heat of of any moment, and lastly, there were the Venmus, people who possess both human and animal features. They were known to be more than physically capable for anything, and even though they were part animal, most were quite domesticated. The rest relied on their wild instincts. 

These three along with many other life forms were created by two powerful sibling Gods, Amias, the God of Light, and Draos, the God of Darkness. Together, they had the power to create worlds and the life to live in them. Amias was proud of both Draos and himself after creating Luk, but Draos soon discovered just how easily influenced their creations were. So, he drove some of those creations to madness for entertainment. Amias found out about this, and his pride of his brother turned to contempt. Amias banish Draos to a failed dimension they created never to return again.

Zerick Wutend, a once respected king of the humans, knew of the power the two gods possessed, and asked Amias to lend him some of that power. Amias refused and left Zerick in anger. That anger lend him to attack Amias. Zerick had no chance of winning and was defeated, but Amias saw only the good in Zerick's actions and gave him a second chance, a second chance that should have not been given.

Months went by, and Zerick figure out the way to get to the dimension Draos was imprisoned in. He convinced Draos to lend him his power by promising him his revenge on Amias.

Zerick returned to Amias with Draos's soul within him in vigorous madness. They battled for hours, darkness versus light, exchanging blow for blow, but in the end, Zerick stood on top in victory. He attempted to absorbs Amias's soul, but Draos's soul prevented it. No one could absorb darkness and light in them. So, Zerick banished Draos back to the failed dimension, driving Draos angry to wanting revenge on Zerick. Zerick then absorb Amias and used his power to advance his people.

For over 30 years, Zerick was a tyrant. He enslaved the Venmus, and started discrimination over Venmus and Mondus amongst the humans. His reign continued several more years. Can anyone stop the mad tyrant?
