illustrated quote
For thousands of years, the Titans were the lords of this land. The Dragonlords drove back their armies; then fell to Sydon’s hand. Five Gods from the heavens came, as the Oracle had foreseen. And a sacred oath was sealed with the blood of the Silver Queen. Five hundred years have passed, but the peace has been in vain. The time has come for war in Thylea once again.
