Hundreds of years ago, the five blood keys were kept safe:
The Key of Life
The Key of Justice
The Key of Courage
The Key of Hidden Knowledge
The Key of Eternal Destruction
These keys were buried within a cursed stone, far from the greedy eyes of men. The mighty King Elios decided to entomb these keys beneath the earth to keep them out of human reach.
With the power of just one key, much could be unleashed. Only the king and his trusted entourage knew the secret of these keys.
However, this state of affairs did not last long. On an accursed day, the king's entourage betrayed him, killing him and stealing the keys. They divided the keys among themselves, but due to their blackened hearts, hands that would not cease shedding blood, and each one's lust for personal glory, they quarreled among themselves. Each wanted all five keys for themselves. As the law of the jungle dictates: only the strongest survives.
Thus, the strongest seized the mightiest keys, while the weaker ones escaped with the lesser keys. Following this, tyranny and murder spread, fear and decay reigned throughout the kingdom, and the king's people were scattered.
