Decades ago, the Dark Moon upheaval caused a thorough reshuffling of the power dynamics within the Setar Empire.
The Former Emperor, King Inega II, and the Empire's First Knight, Hiliard, were assassinated by a mysterious force within the Imperial Capital's palace. Of course, the mysterious force wasn't mysterious, it simply had to be.
In any case, that night, the faction loyal to the Emperor fought a desperate struggle against the mysterious force. The brilliant radiance of Origin Quality illuminated the entire surroundings of the Imperial Capital like daylight, even as the moon was obscured by clouds.
As a result, the Former Emperor passed away, and the blood heirs of the royal family, including the Crown Prince, all perished... Along with them, nearly all of the mysterious force's high-end combat power, and half of the Imperial Capital were buried.
