*Aimyhr was a land formed from the coalescence of powerful magic.
*Its many inhabitants lived in relative peace for thousands of years,
*until one day, an otherworldly visitor sought refuge from a ravaging force that consumed her home.
 	
*Juno-Seto was her name.
*A goddess of light, she had sacrificed herself to ensure her people's escape.
 	
*The great Starsage, Zeruiah, gave them shelter in the Vale,
*where the Divine Seed the refugees brought with them was able to flourish and bloom.
 	
*Thus was Juno-Seto reborn in this land...
 	
*...but little did she know that her shadow would chase her even across worlds.
*The Voidbringer, Ensa-Taya, and her army of darkness swept across Aimyhr,
*tearing a wound through the Vale in pursuit of the radiant goddess who had left for the East.

*When the two halves locked eyes at last, both knew that they were one and the same.
*It was here that they fought to their last breaths,
*whereupon Juno-Seto wrapped her hollowed shell, Ensa-Taya, in a fatal embrace.
*The Crystalline Spire that encases the two goddesses stand in the Eastern Plains to this day...

*and the Naga swarmed forth into the Vale to claim their first victory over the land-walkers.
 	
*However, they were repelled by the awakened dragon spirit Tevarius, in defense of his land.
*The lingering spirit of Juno-Seto still yet looks out for the inhabitants of this world,
 	
*but her power has greatly diminished since; barely a whisper to be heard.
*The myriad conflicts the world had seen in so short a time was troubling,
*and it was clear that dark times were ahead for Aimyhr...

*Nestled far from the conflicts lay the plains of the Southern Plateau.
*It is here, in a sleepy village yet untouched by the Void,
*where Sero-Anya stirs in her sleep, haunted by memories of forgotten lives.
*It is here, that manifold destinies begin to converge into a singular point...
