Many years ago the country was ruled by
the Twelve Legions. Their reign was brutal
and harsh. Many lived impoverished and as
slaves. Only in the far northern region was
there a leader who openly opposed the cruelty
inflicted upon the people, and that leader
was Saga Swordsman, Lord Chen. His clan was
the Sky Clan; one of the most prominent clans
in the Realm. There had been many legends
about the incredible abilities of the twelve
High Masters, and about the sacred stones
that were shared with the Twelve Legions.
These stones, it was said, gave the Legions
their powerful hold over the people.
It was during a fierce uprising, when one
of the southern tribes began fighting back
against the tyranny of the Legion Lord controlling
their territory, that Lord Chen decided to
put an end to the evil grip of the Twelve
Legions. He devised a plan to take back the
control of the sacred shards and combine
them once again to give the Sky Clan the
power they would need to finally put an end
to the inhuman suffering of the people.
The battle that was feared would last decades,
ended within only a few days. The power of
Chen’s sword was too great, even for the
combined effort of the other Legions, and
peace finally came to a nation that had for
so long only knew pain and suffering.
In the years that followed, the nation flourished
under the watchful eyes of the Sky Clan.
Then one catastrophic morning, it all ended.
The Mountain, Fujimiya had heaved a great
plum of smoke and commenced to cover the
entire region of the Sky Clan.
For years the people had believed the Saga
Swordsman and the rest of the Sky Clan had
perished in that fatal blast, and with the
loss of Lord Chen the land was left without
a leader. Once again the 12 legions rose,
but without the power of the shards that
they had once possessed, they could no longer
control the tides of war, and the land began
to bleed as the cries of its people spread. |
