The Southern Empire of Kyrdas is a rogue nation. Ruled by Emperor Sarvasa, the richest man in Serestia, they are masters of nature, magic, and advanced technology deciphered from the sacred texts of the Ancients. For thousands of years, Kyrdas has continuously abused their power and have erected a super city for the lavish lifestyle of the elite. This created an unforgiving and hostile environment for the poor and resulted in the rise of slavemasters and mercenaries which then paved the way for the age of fighters. Meanwhile, in the middle of another mission, Viroe stumbles upon some traders who hail from Kyrdas. They were smuggling suspicious yellow gemstones into the northern city and little did he know that his life was going to change the moment he decided to involve himself with the dangerous affairs of the empire. This is the story of the desert outcast who will soon be the leader of the assassin council. Meet Viroe, the desert outcast.

Serestia, a magical world fashioned by the gods, has been under the control of the Archons for thousands of years, and the kingdoms that divide the land co-exist with these enlightened beings who dwell within their impenetrable walls. Amid the chaos and endless war, a long-awaited prophecy tips the balance and threatens not just the Archons but everyone else. The reincarnations of the legendary Renegade and the Elementalist find themselves pursued by the magical kingdom of Rasfera, the holy kingdom of Ydduj Celeri, and the ancient kingdom of Verheiden. With the help of some friends they meet along the way, the brothers embark on a journey of discovery and purpose in a world shared by Humans, Archons, Ancients, and gods.
