"You've heard of the Legend, haven't you?"
A clash of sparks echo in the dark, the outline of Three Blades appearing in the void.
"Who hasn't? It's a story that has been passed down for thousands of years. Passed from Sorcerer to Sorcerer, Wix to Wix, Man to Man, Parent to Child."
Another spark, this time the jawlines of Three Men is now seen, similar to each other, with them bearing the same stark white hair...
"It's said that in the Age of Unity, when Heaven, Earth, and Hell were directly connected, The Demon Lord known as Mundus had set his sights on Earth, his hatred for Humanity roared within him, leading him to take over The Underworld, leading a war against Earth..."
Another spark, this time revealing the snarling looks of the Men, now revealing glowing blue eyes, yet two of the Men's eyes had traces of Red and Purple...
"The General of Mundus's forces, Sparda, a Warrior without equal, regarded as The Strongest of The Underworld, was sent out to subjugate Humanity... But, by some miracle, something else happened..."
Yet another spark echoes in the dark, forming an outline of a Demon, wielding a massive blade, reminiscent of one the Blades seen earlier...
"He woke up to Justice."
When the spark erupted this time, it revealed a battlefield, featuring thousands of Humans and Demons fighting each other, with Werewolves, Goblins, Centaurs, Vampires, Elves, Veela and Harpies, Asgardians and Jotuun, Dwarves and Giants, all sorts of beings fighting alongside Humanity. This Army, that never would've worked otherwise, was led by a Demon... With large wings and horns, He led the charge...
"He corralled the Species of Earth, betraying his kind with a Call to Arms to any willing to listen... He led The Army of Earth against The Underworld, shattering the back of The Demons, forcing them back to Hell."
The Battlefield shifted away, this time revealing four silhouettes of various Blades in a void...
"Sparda, wise to his power, seperated his Great, Godlike Strength into Four Blades..."
"Yamato, The Sword that Severed The Realms..."
"Rebellion, The Sword of Will..."
"Eclipse, The Sword of Balance..."
"And The Sparda, The Legendary Devil Sword.."
"The Arms of Sparda wielded Great Power, each capable of wiping out entire armies... But they could only be wielded by their Creator..."
The Rebellion vanished in Red Light, Yamato in Blue Light, and The Sparda and Eclipse in Purple.
"Sparda severed the connections between The Realms, banishing The Demons into the depths of Hell, and earning him the title of The Dark Knight."
We see a man, dressed in regal clothing, with stark white hair and blue eyes, staring at a closing portal on top of a massive tower, watching as it buries itself into the Earth. He walks away, holding three of Arms of Sparda...
"Sparda, after sealing away the Temen-Ni-Gru, travelled the world, bringing forth Peace and Prosperity... Eventually, Sparda fell in love with a woman, named Eva..."
"Eva birthed two children, both the Sin of Two Worlds... The Children would grow up, destined to fight, destined to fight over the Fate of The World..."
The Image of Eva faded, the voice growing silent...
"But, there was one more Woman... A Powerful Sorceress named Morgan, a descendant of Morgana Le Fay, and Soloman, The Mage King..."
"Morgan, despite knowing of Sparda and Eva, couldn't help but fall in love with the Demon... Eva, the Heart of a Saint she had. She allowed Morgan to join their family... But something happened. Morgan went away... but not before a new life was formed..."
Another, final spark... The sound of blood being spilt echoes in the void...
"Question is... Will it be enough to save the World...?"
