Back in those days, when man did not yet roam the earth, the mightiest of the creatures ruled. The king of the earth and the sky. The mighty Gryphon. They ruled over all the creatures of the earth and sky. Holding the head and wings of an eagle and the mighty body and legs of a lion, these creatures were nearly unstoppable.
But when darkness fell upon the realm of the Gryphon, the leaders turned to sacrifices and things of the sort. The land was in chaos, the mighty Gryphon had fallen to evilness, and it was up to the subjects of the realm to stop it.
