In a time long ago, before the ice had devoured our planet, before the great war took over the earth and the continents drifted apart, there was a land in the far east, the land of Véir.
One hundred million years before our time, it was the dawn of a new empire. The land had become a very dark place, full of cities and castles, fortified from hammered steel and molten rock, erected into the darkest and most exquisite cities imaginable. These were the dark ages.
Back then, the demon advocates had risen to power by corrupting the minds of all the last remaining humans and vampires that once ruled before them, they sought to kill and conquer all that existed. They filled the human's heads with lies and tortured them with their thoughts. It was a very dark time indeed. The advocates had begun to form alliances with the farthest corners of the earth, starting an act that in return would end the world as they know it and banish the good and the truth from Earth forever.
One night, as legend has it, a man, honorable in every way, was subject to this corruptness and viciously murdered by one of the dark vampires while trying to protect his wife and unborn son. He refused to back down or show fear, one tear escaped in the last moment of breath, falling upon the ashes of an old sacred oak tree, as it landed time was said to stop. A fire came from the sky and entered his body - as he was already changing into a vampire. As he rose a new species was born, a species of awareness, morality, and wisdom, matched with the utmost lethal precision. The order has stepped in. The new species were called Veiré, and this enraged the underworld leaders. For they knew the Veire bore witness to their corruption and would not allow it. The underworld sought out a plan to wipe out the entire world, including the Veiré, and for a time they succeeded. But history has always had a way of repeating itself. They're coming back, and they are now known as The Ancients.
