Some citizens claimed to have witnessed the remnants of a city far in the west. It was said that the once-thriving metropolis stood as reminders of what humanity could accomplish when working together in harmony. Today, their crumbling structures seem to whisper tales of a long-forgotten battle between hope and despair.
Rumors swirled about the tragic event that led to the downfall of their civilization. They proclaimed it ‘The Great Failure.’ It is a story passed down through generations, and although the details of the tale have been altered with each retelling, one thing remains a constant: the cry for a hero who could bring balance to the world.
These lost souls are but a few of the many left behind to carry the weight of a centuries-old sorrow. Legends tell us that even the strongest-willed warrior could fall to the overwhelming despair that claimed the city. When scales are tipped to one side, even the sheen of gold begins to tarnish.
In a world whose grip has slowly tightened, whispers of that distant tragedy serve as a grim reminder of the unknown and unknowable consequences that lie in waiting for those who dare to push the boundaries of what humanity is capable of.
