The Council of the Radiant mages have decided that this could be their last chance to defend against the dark arts of the Dire mages. Knowing that their sacred monasteries have been ransacked by Dire marauders, they are now up against a wall in their fight to protect the World Tree.
The Knights of the Radiant are willing to fight alongside with them, but their numbers are steadily decreasing. The last of the revered holy knights - Purist Thunderwrath, has made a treaty with the Council's highest ranking archmage - the Skywrath Mage - to end this battle once and for all.
Meanwhile, at the opposite end of the world, in Dire's Chamber of the Dark Arts - two of the strongest dark mages - the Invoker and Warlock - are channelling a spell together that would destroy the World Tree in one conjuration. Three of the Dire's most feared generals - Abaddon, the Wraith King, and Undying - have gathered an army of undead to decimate the frontlines of the Radiant's defenses.
Will the Dire succeed in destroying the World Tree, or will the Radiant turn the tides of war to their favor?

And victory...victory is the most costing of all. Across the Black Sea, guarded by the Leviathan, there exists a large land separated into five territories. Celestia, Arvan, Ingres, Illicen, and Arumi. These five territories are named after those who control them. At least, that is how it used to be. From a distant land, the Snake Kingdom managed to bypass the Leviathan, and invade these five territories! Under the guidance of General Clauve, they crushed everyone in sight, until their only remaining opponent was Celestia. But they made a mistake, and Celestia capitalized. In a crushing defeat, the Snake Kingdom was bested after nearly 8 years of conflict. After the war ended, Albedo Aria, a soldier from Celestia, was promoted to the rank of General. But she didn't feel like a hero. Suffering from severe PTSD, this story follows her as she tries to overcome the nightmares of war, and move on from the terrible things she was forced to do.

After all, her dear cousin must deliver a letter to her. A letter telling her that the Snake Kingdom is on the rise in their very own land.
