Five kingdoms lay tucked on a lone continent. All rivals, yet peace has been among them for centuries. The kingdoms all wield a special magical attribute; Shadow, Fire, Water, Wind , or Earth. Every generation, the King's and Queens of each land send their heirs high into the northern mountains of Ulma. They are to be trained by a council old as time. The council are feared above anything else due to their unending elemental powers and their ability to see into ones future. Among the council lay an army, fierce and loyal to only them. Five heirs are sent to the mountains to train along side these soldiers and to be mentored by the great council. Except something is amiss in Ulma, something that will shake the world.
