Long Ago, there was once a Clan called the Eclipse Clan. It is said that it was a clan full of strong warriors and

that they were the best in the continent.

It is said that the people living there were thought to be immortal, some said they were like gods, for they seem

to not grow old and for their superior intellect.

And so because of their god-like abilities, the power hungry nobles of the empire decided to exterminate them and

show them that humans are more superior than the gods. And so, they started an all out war against the clan.

The duke of the empire, Sosico Stien, managed to convince the other nobles and the king to wage war against the

clan and saying,"Even though the clan maybe known for being immortal, that doesn't mean that they can't die.

Even the gods bleed, ya know wahahaha." The empire almost succeeded in their plan in slaughtering all of the

clans people. Children and women alike, every single one was killed without mercy.

They thought that the clan was finished that day, but little did they know that some of the clans people

survived, including the son of the most fearless warrior of the clan...

A hundred years have passed and the story of the Great War against the Eclipse Clan had become nothing more

than history or a myth to the people who were living in the new era...

The village and every trace of the Eclipse Clan had been sealed or covered in stones and dirt and was hidden

and forgotten by the outside world. In this forgotten village, the warrior's son had been put to a deep slumber

by the warrior's wife, the great sage. He made her seal their son's memories...

For over a hundred years the son was in deep slumber not knowing that his clan had been destroyed, for his

memories had been sealed away...

As the son is slowly awakened, he heard a voice saying "wake up, please... you need to wake up... Shiro...

please wake up..."but as he slowly opened his eyes, he saw nothing. As he tried to get up, he

thought, "where am i?". He stood up, looked around and thought "where is this?".

After getting up he started to look around to find some food since he was starting to get hungry.

Luckily, edible plants were nearby, so he started to eat them. After eating, he started to walk around and

found an exit leading outside the village. When he got out, all he saw was a wasteland, a wasteland with

nothing more than sand and stones as far as the eye can see.

Shiro didn't remember anything about the war and everything that happened because of what his mother did.

All he could remember was waking up inside the village all by himself. He waited for a while for someone

to come into the village, but it was already abandoned, so he decided to leave. Before departing, he

searched the place for something that he could take with him.

As he walked further, he found plenty of things like swords, armor, some knives and skeletons of those

from the Great War.

He didn't really feel anything when he saw those bones lying around on the ground, but as he walked

further, he felt anxious and a sense of nostalgia the the same time. This caused him to turn back.

He took some items, put them in the bag that he found somewhere, and then left the village. As he looked

back, he saw a human shaped figure. The figure waved at him, almost like it was telling him to take care.

He didn't know why, but as he started walking again, he felt sad about leaving the village. Even so, he

faced forward and said to himself, "I'll be back..."
