A year and a half earlier, January 9th, 355
Nestled in the heart of an ancient and lush forest, bathed in a blue light by a dense canopy. Crystal clear rivers snaking between century-old trees, and peaceful clearings dotted the landscape. Spanning an area of over 800,000 square kilometers for around 70 million inhabitants, Lignum, the elven kingdom, was a place of splendor and magic, an echo of the timeless beauty of nature. It was the only territory where the inhabitants lived in harmony with magical beasts, thanks to the Church of Life which brought peace to the entire domain.
The Elves were graceful beings, known for their longevity and natural sensitivity to mana. They lived in harmony with all living beings and music was their favorite pastime.
