Once upon a time, two mighty heroes came to an island where been led by Triangle, the black wizard. The Great Circle, the red wizard, and Mighty Square, the swordsman, defeated him and freed all other humans enslaved by Triangle. But instead of taking his life, the two heroes decided to let him be to start a new life. In jealousy and hatred he put curse to not only by the two heroes but by all the people in the island that they will become as the name of the heroes are, and so half of the number of the people became square and circle. They will only be human again every fifty years at the night of the rainbow; the day when the rainbow appears in the sky at night together with the stars.

But Triangleisn’t contented with that for the two heroes accepted the fate and lived contented. And so Triangle came up for another plan of his revenge. He killed Great Square’s wife and Mighty Circle’s sister that the blame put on the opposite side. And so hatred, agony, and revenge came upon the land. Fought each other and the war never have ended. The battle between two heroes becomes battles of generations to generations.

Three hundred years passed and the situation worsens and worsens.  More wars occurred for power and colonization. No side wanted to lose from the other. The kings, generals, and soldiers who fought and died in the battle buried in a straight land that separates the two races called “The Rectangle Wall.”
