The world as we know it has ended. Chaos and havoc have left nothing but a trail of destruction in their path. When World rulers couldn't put aside their differences it left everyone in the dark. Evil descended for a hundred years, putting an end to everything we knew. Every book was burned, every machine destroyed, every country was in shambles. Millions of lives were lost in that war. No one was unaffected. But those days are long over. New leaderships began to arise. Kingdoms were formed. 

     Join a young blacksmith with dreams of living better. With the new lives came back the status systems. Even though without his skills the kingdom would fall he was on one of the bottom steps. The only way to move up is to become a solider, but he would never pass the knowledge portion. It was impossible for anyone below a level 4 to be a solider and as a man there was no marrying higher. Just when he thinks there is no hope he meets some mysterious strangers who completely change his world.
