Ancient Xadria was once a single continent inhabited by magical creatures, where humans, elves, and other beings coexisted peacefully. In ancient times there were seven primal forces of power or arcanas: the sun, the moon, the stars, the earth, the sky, the sea, and the most powerful source of all pure raw magic.
But three hundred years ago, an evil human mage was jealous of the power the elves possessed. He discovered an eighth force- dark magic. Dark magic was not like any other source ever seen. It used the magical energy of creatures to unleash chaos everywhere. Thirteen years ago the humans killed the Dragon Queen and her guards, along with destroying her egg. Her only heir. The next Dragon Queen. And now Xaedria wants revenge for the Dragon Queen.
