The sun was beginning to decline on the horizon, casting an orange glow over the Forest of Nefaria. Researchers from Marcellia and Montavia had been searching for days, following ancient maps and forgotten legends. Their goal was to find the legendary Divine Stone, capable of healing wounds and diseases.
Finally, after hours of walking, they came to a clearing. In the center, on a stone pedestal, rested the Divine Stone. It was more beautiful than they had imagined. The stone glowed with a soft, warm light, as if it contained the very essence of life.
-It is incredible," said the leader of the Marcellia researchers, Arin, smiling.
-This stone can change the course of history.
The Montavia researchers, led by the sage Luka, approached the stone with reverence. They examined its surface, searching for clues to its origin and properties.
-It seems to have a unique energy," said Luka.
-We would have to study it for days and get more out of it.
After several days of inventigating its power the joy was short-lived. The Marcellia researchers began to talk quietly among themselves. Their eyes became cold and calculating.
-We cannot allow Montavia to have access to this stone," said Arin.
-It is too powerful. We must take it.
Montavia's researchers realized too late the treachery. Marcellian soldiers emerged out of nowhere, armed, surrounded them in seconds ready to attack.

Montavia's researchers realized too late the treachery. Marcellian soldiers emerged out of nowhere, armed, surrounded them in seconds ready to attack.
-Treachery!" shouted Luka.
-You can't do this!
The massacre was swift and brutal. The Marcellia soldiers killed several Montavia researchers.
The scene ended with the image of the Divine Stone being carried towards Marcellia, while darkness loomed over the Forest of Nefaria.
Several weeks later the king of Montavia was worried about not hearing anything from his investigators.
-No letters have arrived for several days," said the king to his subordinates.
-Call up a platoon of the best soldiers and send them to Nefaria, right away!
Barely two days had passed since the soldiers left.
- King, a letter has just arrived from Nefaria
-What does it say," said the king nervously.
- It says that they found a very desolate image, all the researchers were massacred, there is no trace of the Marcillicans. They think it was treason and they took everything that was there.
-This is the end of our alliance," said the king, with tears in his eyes and enraged.
-Marcellia will pay for this betrayal, we will recover the Divine Stone
-We will go to war, said the king, with his teeth and fists clenched.
Several years passed since Montavia decided to invade Marcellia, many deaths and destroyed cities were left on the way, until the king of Montavia no longer had resources to continue in battle, all had been destroyed by the defensive power of the army marcellicense and more having divine stone Sanaea
The king of Montavia decided to leave the country, giving as winner to Marcellia and with it the destruction of all the bridges that connected them. Thus began a history of rancor, revenge and pride.
