Centuries in the future within a realm unknown to mortals, a malicious war wages on between the Celestial kingdoms of Paradia. There are the oppressive God Collective; descendants of an ancient Celestial race who are committed to purging the Five Realms of the self-righteous and divine Goddesses. Both factions have not openly declared war upon one another, but instead have initiated multiple proxy wars against each other. These proxy wars have been fought by the Monoliths; a Celestial hive mind race that numbered somewhere in the billions with a strong warrior culture, they pledged their loyalty to the God Collective. The Goddesses were too passive to raise an army of their own, instead, they relied on a secret order of Mystics they had trained. These Mystics were few in number but were tactically superior to the Monoliths who unlike the Mystics couldn't harness the power of the Ember; the Ember was a living cosmic essence that resided within the Realms and was responsible for mortals and celestial's possessing supernatural abilities.

After a millennium of war and casualties in the hundreds of millions, the Collective and Goddesses called a cease-fire and signed a treaty that stated the two sides would govern over Paradia together. The Goddesses were reluctant at first, but after concluding that the Collective's military was exhausted and with their own forces dwindling, they signed. The Goddesses chose to sign the treaty because two of their council members had foreseen events within the future that would cause war to plague Paraida again. Only this time they would have an army led by a mysterious warrior whose face was shrouded in darkness, with neither council member able to identify them. So the Goddesses stayed vigilant as they ruled Paradia alongside the Collective as they waited for their time to come.
