## Background

The Fairy King's Forest is home to the Sacred Tree of the Fairy Realm which lies in the center of the forest, the fairies all live in the sacred tree which acts like a portal between the human realm and the fairy realm. It is surrounded by a barrier that can be manipulated in order to keep out certain individuals.

The Forest, along the rest of the Fairy Realm, was created by the Sacred Tree, after this was given birth by Chaos.

3,000 years ago, during the Holy War, the Fairy King's Forest was used as the location of the Light of Grace, Stigma's headquarters. The forest was protected by the first Fairy King, Gloxinia, until he joined the Ten Commandments and was later sealed along with the Demon Clan. The forest was destroyed after this, leaving its ruins below where is now the castle of the kingdom of Liones.

At some point after Gloxinia defected to the Ten Commandemnts, Dahlia was chosen to reign as the second Fairy King. Dahlia was later suceeded by Harlequin. But 700 years before the series started, Harlequin abandoned the kingdom to rescue some captured fairies which included his best friend Helbram, forcing his sister to protect their country's greatest treasure, the Fountain of Youth, in his place. According to Elaine, many people sought out the Fountain of Youth and attempted to attack the fairies' country but all were thwarted by Harlequin.

Fifteen years before the series, a Red Demon destroyed the original forest. The forest was relocated to the west of the Forest of White Dreams by Ban, who planted the seed of the forest there. Some time later, Harlequin returned to the old, destroyed forest.

The **Fairy King's Forest**, later relocated and renamed as the **New Fairy King's Forest** after the destruction of the original, is a forest within the Fairy Realm and the Human Realm. It marks the border between both realms. Before it was completely burned down due a Red Demon's purgatory flame, the blame of which was placed on Ban, the fairy nation was an ally of the Kingdom of Liones.

The Fairy King's forest (and by extension, the entire Fairy Realm) is ruled by the Fairy King, who is chosen by the Sacred Tree.

## History

The continent of **Dicathen** was populated by those who are commonly referred to as The Ancient Mages but who Arthur refers to as the Djinn. After the disappearance of these powerful entities, the three races were leading a nomadic lifestyle. They lived in fear of the mana beasts, which, at the time, inhabited all parts of the continent. To prevent the downfall of the races, asuras endowed each race with two artifacts, which could each grant tremendous power to their wielder.

With the help of these artifacts, the three races were able to fend for themselves, and slowly, as the powers bestowed by the artifacts were studied, people learned of the existence of mana. Thus, even regular people were capable of becoming mages, solidifying their supremacy over the continent, and driving the mana beasts into the Beast Glades. Eventually, people settled down, and cities were built around transportation portals left behind by the Ancient Mages.

In the events followed by the war, the right side of the continent, from Beast Glades to Kingdom of Elenoir was destroyed by the attack of Aldir’s world-eater technique. Killing millions of **Dicathen**s and Alcarians alike.
