Synopsis

Prologue: The Fall of the Eclipse Clan

The night was silent, save for the crackling of flames that devoured the once-great Eclipse Clan stronghold. Smoke billowed into the sky, blotting out the stars, as screams echoed through the valley. The Eclipse Clan, revered for their ability to wield both light and dark magic, had been betrayed.In the heart of the burning fortress, a young woman clutched a newborn child to her chest. Her robes, adorned with the sigil of the Eclipse Clan, were torn and bloodied. She whispered an incantation, her voice trembling as she placed a small, glowing shard into the infant's tiny hand.

"Kael," she murmured, tears streaming down her face. "You are the last hope of our clan. The world fears our power, but one day, you will show them the balance between light and dark."

The sound of footsteps grew louder. She turned to see a figure emerge from the shadows—a man clad in black armor, his eyes glowing with malevolent energy. Zarok Nightshade, the betrayer.

"You cannot escape," Zarok said, his voice cold and mocking. "The Eclipse Clan ends tonight."
