In a post apocalyptic wasteland, decimated by thought to be long forgotten forces, only one city remains. A glorious shining safe haven in an otherwise chaotic world.

Inside the walls and defenses of the city referred to as "Airidghrian" by most, there is retribution... for a cost.

Outside of Silvershine, a ruination of a world. Bandits, plague, treacherous natural and unnatural disasters, and much more pillage, desecrate, and lay waste to defenseless survivors and wanderers. This world is known as the badlands to all except for the unfortunate souls trying to survive in the outlands across the Crag, a massive trench filled with the worlds former ocean that surrounds the badlands.

It is almost impossible to cross the Crag. Nobody has been heard of who has done it. Until the year 573 T.R.A. A man with no name appears on the rim of the Crag, claiming to be from the other side.
