Cross came to Eldham on a boat with no recolection of why he was there and who he was, all that he could find on the boat were some crucial materials and a single note. All that was written on the note was "Cross Lumiere". The ship finnaly docked at a seemingly abandoned port, Cross decided to venture west, where he arrived at the glorious city of Noxwind! He was welcomed as a guest by a man named Pafric, he got shown around the town and given a place where he could reside in, for the time being. It was a half-built house, but Cross pulled through and finished the house with a help of a local resident Petrol. The following week was quite a happy week for Cross he has met some of the Sylvanian citizens and befriended a man named Koper, after a brief fight with him, Koper has shown him his secret base in the middle of a freezing ocean where they began scheming on what to do next. With the help of Koper's friends, Cross managed to acquire some important gear and funds. But then a tragedy struck, Koper was quite a inhumane person that frequently trolled other Sylvanian citizens, he got banished for actions against the residents of Noxwind and seemingly dissapeard. This has deeply saddened Cross and he began spending more and more time in his work, seeing this turn of events Sirlad the ruler of Sylvania decided to promote Cross to Councilor and, some time later, the Archknight. Cross immidietly began working on the Sylvanian army and his own fighting capability, while in training he met a person called Yigon who was the leader of the religion known as Clockism. Yigon began teaching Cross the true meaning of the world and what Clockism is. After some time Cross managed to get over the loss of his dear friend and his clouded past, Cross began helping Yigon spread the truth of the Great Clock while the events in Sylvania quieted down. 
After a fairly long time Cross has gained the respect of Yigon and fellow Clockism believers, the followers of the Clock wanted their teachings to spread so they moved to a small nation - New Domatia where they made their first official town - Washukanni. With the town being the preety much the only active settlement in the nation, the Clockists were very unhappy with the leadership of New Domatia which was inactive and bassically didnt have any citizens except the Clockists. they began scheming on taking power of New Domatia and becoming a religious state, at first the ruler of Ahalia, Wambold, supported their claim and began scheming against Maple - the ruler of New Domatia. Everything was ready, the fort was built, the gear was bought, the international support was secured. Yigon has declared an insurgency against Maple. Everything was going smoothly and New Domatia seeming unprepared for war looked as an easy win. But then tragedy struck the Clockists were backstabbed by Wambold, who has warned Maple of their attack before the war was declared, they have been tricked, but even with all of the odds stacked against them, Cross and Yigon were still trying to look at everything in optimistic way. There they met a bunch of fellow Clockists- Cao Sung, Jadne, Epsri, Vonmo and Waffle. They all laughed cheered, drank, hung out and prepared for the fight. Despite the fear of his death Cross had a wonderfull time with all of his friends. Finally all the preperations were done and the day of battle has come, the Clockists expected a swift win but what they saw was beyond all expectations, New Domatia seemingly being a desolate and empty state with no citizens has managed to get the support of Vulperium, Ahalia, Aeternia, AWE, Goonguard and all the bandits from Eldham and even Rathnir. The rebels fought as hard as they could but they were no match for the crushing power of all of the countries combined. After the smoke cleared the Clockists have been caught, including Cross and all his friends. But one person was missing... It was Jadne, there he laid dead on the stairs of the Clockist Shrine. Everyone was filled with sorrow, especially Cao who adopted Jadne a week before the battle. The situation was hopeless for Clockists, but then the enemy soldiers were ordered to stand down and the Clockist rebels have been spared by Maple herself. The enemy army was ordered to loot the town of all the valuables and burn the city to the ground with all the personall possesions of the Clockists fighting. Cross witnessing the death of his dear friend and his brothers, was traumatised and began the journey to his home city of Noxwind, alone and injured, he barely could walk but somehow made it. He was drowning in sorrow. Every day became a blur for him. All he could think about was what happend that day and how he couldve avoided it. The only thing that mattered to him now, was work...
After almost three months he forgot about the traumatising events of the battle, while training he met a person called Astori Luring with whom he practised his PVP skills and met Astori's friend Malo who invited him to join his town Mexrncast in Yunria, there he met Subvert and Wardaddy, he enjoyed the time with all his friends free of war. Until his peace was broken by a civil war in Yunria that reminded him of the past. But after a while of considering he decided to help Subvert in his struggle against Ashey the king of Yunria when the past threat of Yunria Historical enemy-Aureus became imminent and king failed to protect the country by joining Uraka for protection. After a peacefull resolution to the civil war and the defeat of Aureus, concession were made toward the people of Yunria which ended up in Wardaddy becoming chancellor of Yunria. Cross was overall very happy with the victory of his friends, but that happines wouldnt last very long with a message arriving to Cross's Home. It was a letter from Yigon, he was asking him to return and help him with the war against Ahalia the people that betrayed us during New Domatian war. Cross was shocked to see this letter he was scared to reply, he didnt know what to say and how to react. All the bad memories have returned and plagued his mind for days while he was considering waht he should do, but then one day he had a vision of the Great Clock himself commanding him to help his people and save them, the Clock promised him great fortune and what he was looking for the entire time. Cross immidietly knew what he should do, he replied to Yigon and the next day he arrived at the new Clockist town -Washukanni. The Clockists were helping Atlechians with their struggle against the Ahalia and Vulperium, Cross began working on the new town with all of his Clockist Brothers. The day before the battle Cross had another vision the Great Clock warned him to leave Vulperium lands immidietly, he became scared and quickly alerted everyone in the town to leave. Cross's and his friends life was once again saved by the Clock, the battle against Vulperium was a massive fail and the Atlechian soldiers were massacred. 
Cross was now sure to never doubt the Great Clock again and follow every single of its commandments. After the battle, Yigon and Cross began looking for a way to get a Clockist Country, Cross was sent on a mission to Imperium to become the Mayor of a local town alongside Yigon with his other town. The mission was an overall succes with Yigon becoming friendly with the Imperium officials and getting their patronage. Everything was going great for Cross he met new friends and got wealthy. He focused more on his job as Minister of Defence in Sylvania and met a few more people there.
=== Chapter II - Setting Course ===
After a long time of rest for Cross, he was tasked with a new mission which would turn out to be the greatest one he ever embarked on. With the major defeat of Atlechia, Cross and his fellow Clockists were left without a home once more. Seeing this unfortunate development, Yingon has decided to gather what remained of Clockism and embark on a great journey east. After many days at sea they decided to set up camp in a seemingly unsettled desert, after getting settled they were shocked to get visited by an envoy sent from the Kingdom of Kryvonea which was a Royal Vassal of the Empire of Uraka. With some brief negotiations the Clockists have agreed to become fully fledged citizens of Kryvonea and Yingon became an official Mayor of the newly made town of Caograd , named in honor of the great Clockist warrior and preacher Cao Sung. 
With this amazing development things have finally began to look up for Cross and the others. They got acquainted with the Emperor and entrusted with managing the land. This moment of tranquility would be short lived as our protagonists would soon find out. Turmoil quickly erupted as a mayor known as Dwyer, betrayed and revolted against the Emperor with his stronghold situated near the Capital city of Kenka. Yingon and his fellow Clockists caught wind of this affair and rallied up every warrior they could and regrouped with the main army that would siege the rebelling city. 
The subsequent battle that would ensue, would see that the entire city would be leveled and all of its residents slaughtered, with the Clockist army playing a pivotal role in the destruction. The now defeated and captured rebel leader Dwyer would warn the Emperor of Kryvonea and its government of the threat Yingon posed to the nation, but it all fell on deaf ears as he was promptly exiled and stripped of all his titles. 
Seeing that Kryvonea was weakened after the war and their overlord of Uraka was busy with a major war of their own, Yingon and Cross began to devise a plan on how to take over. The Clockists assimilated more of their members into the nation and began placating key government roles with their followers. The Kryvonean Government saw what was coming and tried to stop it, but to no avail. 
After merely a month of preperations Yingon rallied up his forces and rode into the capital city where he murdered the Kryvonean Emperor and banished all of his loyalists to the dismay of the populace. He usurped the throne and proclaimed himself as the Emperor of Kryvonea, also revoking the overlordship of Uraka without any resistance. Cross was crowned as the Crown Prince and heir of the Kingdom. 
Yingons takeover saw many good developments with the creation of the Kryvonean highway and urbanisation of the land. Many new towns rose from the formerly desolate lands of the Kingdom with Cao becoming the mayor of Caograd , Epsri creating a new town of Uttarapratha and Vonmo making the town of Zohar in the south of the nation. Many new alliances also sprung up with in this new age notably with - AWE, Eleanor, Lunaris, Einberg, Varn Torum, Druk Yul and unofficially with Paragon due to Cross's friendship with its leader - Wardaddy.
Many days have passed since the new administration was introduced. As Cross was working on building homes in Caograd, a mysterious man flew down from the skies onto a roof. Surprised, Cross asked him who he was, the man introduced himself as Tylics Rariston, the ruler of Druk Yul and Santos. The two men quickly took liking to each other and shared stories with each other for hours. This would be the start of a great friendship and perhaps something more.
=== Chapter III - Troubling Times ===
Not everyone was happy with the new regime, notably the three Kryvonean neighbors of Santos, Vanshire and Merkonis which controlled former Kryvonean land of Kirvograd and Kronetsk. A number of its citizens also disaproved of this undertaking and a few mayors - Ellesmere with Quixoticly in charge and Olonets with Fireboy in charge.
