Over a thousand years ago, the world was a battlefield. People with different powers fought relentlessly, and war and chaos became a daily routine. It was an age without peace until a mysterious woman—believed by many to be a divine messenger—arrived and changed everything. She proposed a competition to determine the five strongest abilities, and the victors would be crowned as rulers. The competition was fierce and merciless, but in the end, five champions emerged: the Lightning King, the Weapon Nation King, the Fire King, the Ice King, and the Air Queen. As a reward for their triumph, they were gifted special crowns that granted them immortality. The only way they could lose their crowns—and their lives—was by being defeated by their own bloodlines. With their newfound powers, the five rulers created nations, carved out territories, and established family lines. Under their reign, knights, branch leaders, princes, princesses, commanders, generals, and lieutenants formed a new world order. However, as with all things, peace came with its price. There was never good without bad. And now, the paths of the five nations are set to cross again. Which will you choose? The prodigies of the Lightning Nation, the bloodthirsty warriors of the Weapon Nation, the fiery determination of the Fire Nation, the analytical tacticians of the Ice Nation, or the peaceful killers of the Air Nation? All roads will converge in the "Five Nations"
