Once upon a time, there was a world of sword and magic. Five legendary heroes banded together and slew the Mythical Creature Thanatos, who had been terrorizing the land. The epic tales of the five heroes spread widely, and their reputations grew. They created five different nations, and for many generations, the five nations lived in harmony.

But then, the scourge of the world's curse was unleashed. Famine, war, pestilence, and death spread across the land. The five nations were torn apart, and the people were filled with fear.

Arawn, a young boy from a small village, was tired of this. He knew that someone had to do something to stop the curse, and he was determined to be the one. He set out on a journey to find the cause of the curse and end it once and for all.

Along the way, Arawn met a group of unlikely companions who helped him on his quest. Together, they faced the dangers of the world and the power of the scourge of the world. But Arawn was not just any boy. He was the one who was prophesied to save the world.

Could he fulfil his destiny and become the new hero?

The Cursed Land

The departure of the Watcher left the room in a state of strained silence, the tension lingering in the air like an oppressive fog. Arawn remained seated, his thoughts a chaotic whirlpool of fear, doubt, and a dawning sense of responsibility. The gravity of the Watcher's words weighed heavily on him. He felt small and powerless, a mere pawn in a game played by forces far beyond his understanding. 


The grandeur of the Empire's capital, with its towering spires and bustling streets, had initially filled Arawn with awe. Now, as he stood on the precipice of a battle that threatened not just the Empire but the entire realm, the awe transformed into a deep-seated anxiety. He was painfully aware of his inadequacies. The Watchers, the emperor, and the kings all possessed a depth of power and knowledge that he lacked. Arawn was no warrior or seasoned mage; he was a young man thrust into a world of peril and prophecy, with little more than his wits and a handful of basic skills.
