The world had moved on. In the echoes of the passing centuries, the once-celebrated hero, Aeltherion, had faded into myth. Once the protector of the Earth, a powerful sorcerer with unimaginable strength, his deeds had become stories passed down through the ages—forgotten and ignored.
Time passed, and the Earth no longer needed a defender, or so they believed. The monsters that had once invaded Earth had been driven back, their threat vanquished. Humans, in their newfound peace, grew complacent. They no longer remembered the battle that had cost so many lives, nor did they remember the name of the sorcerer who had given everything to protect them.
But all that was about to change.
Aeltherion's soul, trapped in the cycle of despair, raged against the injustice of being forgotten. Humanity's betrayal festered like a wound, and the world trembled under his immense power once again. Using the last remnants of his strength, Aeltherion shattered the fragile peace, unleashing chaos across the land. The sky itself seemed to tremble with the fury of a god scorned. It was then that the Seven Golden Knights were sent forth, a legendary order forged in secret to combat threats like him. They were the ultimate weapon—imbued with powers that rivaled even the most skilled magicians.
In the ensuing battle, Aeltherion was slain by the Golden Knights, his life extinguished in an instant. But in his final breath, he cast his forbidden spell. His body crumbled, and his soul was forced into a new vessel—a second chance—into the body of a child born in a distant, remote village.
This new body, known as Alistair, did not know the legacy it now carried. He was a boy, raised by humble farmers, whose existence was as ordinary as any other. But deep within, the soul of a once-great sorcerer stirred, awakening with the newfound life he was granted.
