Alrathi was once a thriving world with a vast, diverse assortment of terrains and people who inhabited them. Peace often changed much like the seasons as Kingdoms rose and fell, a culture of bloodshed created by an endless cycle. Civilization across the entire land was but a fledgling when the first un-dead rose in the mystical kingdom of Altamea, a land known for magical break-throughs. Legend says that the old king, fearful of his own death, made a pact with a very powerful demon becoming the first Lich-King. No records exists of his reign before he made the decision. Corrupted by the power bestowed upon him, he waged an endless war to supply his un-dead army known as the 'Silent War' due to the eradication of entire civilizations. Kingdom after kingdom fell under his terror, not even the mighty dragons could turn the tide as millions perished. At last, as every race banded together in the last city of Ris-Volun, an enormous city developed as a fortress, waiting for this apocalypse to take them, a band of heroes emerged from the darkness. These heroes blessed by the gods bonded with ancient dragons to stem the inevitable. Their greatest champion, Cisna, sacrificed herself to end the Lich-King's life at his throne in Altamea. The demon that had been pulling the strings revealed himself at this time nearly wiping out the band of heroes. At their finals moments, the gods finally intervened banishing the demon into the void. An academy was founded years later in honor of those heroes, training magic and the art of handling dragons and familiars to prospective youths. It was the intention of the founders that these students would one day save Alrathi from another apocalypse and defend her from evil. These individuals became known as 'Paragons' and it became their duty to explore dangerous new lands and protect the people from monstrous threats. Instead of reclaiming their lost territory, the remaining people of Alrathi expanded their haven of Ris-Volun more and more as the outside word had turned harsh populated by monsters in their wake. A thousand years have past since the Lich-King's defeat, and in that time the races of Alrathi mustered the courage to form new Kingdoms driven by the over-population of Ris-Volun however the lands outside the grand city's walls remain quite dangerous and unexplored. The now ancient kingdom of Altamea remains untouched by the new expansion efforts, due to equal parts superstition and very real dangers. However just as civilization is once again gaining a foot-hold, an old evil is waiting in the shadows as the new kingdoms of Alrathi return to their old ways of war...
