Whispers

Prologue: The Call of Destiny

As told from the Book of Arget, all existence originated from a single mythical spring known as the Mirror of Silver. Based on this principal, the theory of evolution has governed the way of life for all those existing in the present day. Keure, who are said to be the last and most powerful of all creatures to emerge from the Mirror, are at the top of the social class structure. It is this belief that gave rise to the arrogance of Keure society in believing they were ultimately better then all other creatures.

So ignoble, have the Keure become that they have even created their cities amongst the skies, far away from all lesser beings. It would be different if this were all the Keure did to push their superiority over the other races. Unfortunately, this was not the case. Over the passing of time, the Keure exerted more and more authority over the lesser races. Gaining control of special beasts known as Ghirnas, the Keure soon acquired the powered to control all. The Ghirnas specific role was to keep the Silene, who were smarter yet less powerful creations, in check. They also exerted authority towards other races forcing them all to aid in the construction of their sky rise societies and to pamper their way of living to an extent that they stopped thinking the other races were living beings entirely.

However the lesser races were not privy to simply take this lying down. Many revolutions ensured, however none of the revolting races were ever unified, carrying a deep inbred prejudice towards one another, thus making domination for the Keure populace and their Ghirna slaves all the less difficult and more efficient to conquer.

It is in this state of torment and enslavement that now begins a tale about a single group of people. Hero’s strong and brave enough to not only oppose the dominance of the Keure monarchs, but also to fight for what they believe in and challenge the very essence of what separates their cultures and constantly prevents their races from achieving their goal, Unity.
