In a world filled with magicians wielding magic, a child born on the blood moon night was prophesized to be the one destined to be at the pinnacle of all that was magic, but history shows that the power comes with a price, as the first child that was born to stand at the pinnacle became corrupted with power and a threat to the world.
After the slaughtering of a countless number of people the high elders of the Zestria Kingdom, the mightiest of Seven Kingdoms had enough and waged war on the threat known as Morphus with the help of all the Kingdoms. A decade-long battle against Morphus and his loyal followers came to an end.
His army was defeated and his capture was imminent, but using his life as the price he cast an ancient spell that destroyed Emerald City and himself in the process. However, during his final moment, he uttered words that would later be considered as the ravenings of a madman seeking sympathy.
"You people from the Seven Kingdoms deserve to rot in the underworld for what you've done!! I may die today but my spirit lives on through my successors, they carry my will to bring retribution to your Seven Kingdoms!!, or should I say four, HAHAHAHA!!........", after saying that he died.
The battle cost 3 of the mighty kingdoms to fall to ruins. The Emerald kingdom, the kingdom of Magnox, and the kingdom of Eclat. All were destroyed, leaving the once proud and lofty citizens to scatter throughout the remaining Kingdoms as refugees.
Now, a century later, a child is born on the blood moon night. Join our main character and his friends as he tries to uncover the truth about his birth and those thought-provoking last words.
