Although the lands of Aeros were torn apart over a hundred years ago, a great scar still divides the people where the kingdoms were sewn back together. Unlike the Elves to the north, the great Human race did not react well to their populous developing fantastical abilities. Quickly, the kingdoms were torn asunder and even the King and his spirit warriors were not able to keep the foundations of his kingdom from cracking.
The Kingdom of Orlanio was the first to take up sword to the cause of restricting Mage freedom, decreeing that Mages were too dangerous and should not be granted the same freedoms as others.
Even though she's the Grad Duke of Orlanio's niece, Allaria cares little for the politics outside Orlanio's walls. She is much more concerned with pushing back her Uncle's timeline for shipping her off to court. Seeing as she is nineteen years of age she had been doing quite well until one night ruined it all and sent her life down a path she never saw coming.
Times in Aeros are becoming more and more dangerous as a new power is growing and Allaria will soon find she has an important role to play as the wars brew and the Phoenix rises.

"To truly appreciate beauty, one must witness its destruction." - General Guths General Guths lives by this mantra. A veteran of the frozen fronts and a connoisseur of human despair, he has turned warfare into his private art exhibition. His enemy? The Rose Kingdom, whose armies are composed entirely of young, breathtakingly beautiful women. For Guths, they are not soldiers; they are perfect, fleeting masterpieces, waiting for his touch to immortalize them in agony. "I will break you, even if I have to use my own bones as the hammer." - General Lilith Lilith von Aether watched Guths turn her beloved sister into one of his exhibits. Her once-noble heart has frozen over, replaced by a single, all-consuming purpose: revenge. She will use her own army as cannon fodder, make pacts with devils, and betray every ideal she once held, all for a chance to shatter the man who shattered her world. This is not a story of good versus evil. This is a story of two broken souls, orbiting each other in a spiral of mutual destruction, forever bound by the beautiful things they have lost... and the beautiful things they are willing to destroy.

Chronicles of Avaloria
Nearly three centuries ago, the once-mighty human-dwarven alliance of Ostrovia was destroyed during a brutal series of civil wars and political malfeasances. Ancient blood magic and dwarven machinery fueled the death and destruction. Kings turned on one another, and the great wizards were corrupted by their own power. In the last days of the fall, the orc tribes, united by chaos and bloodshed, descended from the mountains and destroyed the war-torn kingdom, becoming the new dominant race of the land, leaving humanity on the brink of extinction. During those final days, a group of desperate survivors set course on a bold expedition into the perilous and uncharted Sea. Against all odds, a single ship crashed upon the shores of Avaloria... a realm steeped in ancient magic and guarded by a living forest teaming with dangerous enemies and undiscovered wonder. Now, nearly three centuries later, under the steadfast leadership of Aldros Valtir, the descendants of that fateful journey labor to rebuild civilization in the new world. At the edge of the wild frontier, young Aelar Varos has grown up in Harrow's End, a modest village, clinging to the untamed forests of Avaloria.

Cedric Valtir, eldest son of the King and heir to the throne, is loved by his men and women in equal measure. In the bustling heart of Valoria, where the lively corridors of The Silver Stag echo with hope and revelry, Cedric bridges his regal past with the promise of a new future. With his effortless grace, keen intellect, and warm humor, he inspires his people as he listens to their dreams and fears, even as whispers of impending threats swirl around him. But what will fate have in mind when he leaves the walls of the city that defines him?
