Skornia was a powerful and prosperous empire, home to many diverse languages, tribes, and ethnic groups. Its vast lands were rich with treasures and histories, among them the legend of Empress Li - the greatest ruler in Skornia's history. Born Adela Prez, she was not of royal blood, but rather a victim of circumstance who fought for freedom and equality in Skornia. Centuries before her birth, Skornia fell under the control of the Philnia Empire due to a grave mistake made by one of Skornia's emperors. And thus, Empress Li emerged as a symbol of hope for her people, determined to restore Skornia's independence and prosperity.
