## Pre-Black Keep Era

In the past, there were only small islands in the ocean.

Two giants came down to those islands from a floating island in the heavens to rule the planet. There was a male giant and a female giant.

Seeds of war take control of the Earth.

The male giant declared that the Earth was for giants, but the female giant declared that it was for those living on it.

The giants broke apart and fought.

The battle of the giants leads to the end of both.

After the two giants had fallen, they reflected upon their conflict and vowed to never fight upon the surface again.

The two fallen giants formed a single continent.

Several creatures were born from their flesh.

The dark elves and high elves have been in conflict since they were born.

It is believed that the dark elves came from the brain of the male giant.

The progenitor of the high elves was born from the tears of prayer the female giant wept as she lay dying in the terrestrial realm.

Their progenitor desired a child dearly and stepped into the stream of tears between the two giants and from this man and woman were born.

This original man and woman are the original high elves.

The original high elf woman had stunning flaxen hair and resembled the female giant.

Her name was Larentia, the goddess worshiped by the Church.

In an age long since passed, Larentia sacrificed her body and life to save humanity as they were on the brink of being annihilated by a plague.

Since that day, humans have worshipped Larentia as a Goddess with deep devotion.

When Larentia sacrificed herself for the sake of humans...

Larrentia's breasts continued to spurt milk even after she died, and it is said that the milk instantly cured the illness of man.

A hermit made a prophecy to the humans and other races who were saddened by the death of Larentia.

Goddess Larentia will appear on this earth again someday.

And when the reincarnation of Larrentia appears, that person's body will have the same miraculous attribute as the original Larrentia.

Celestine was recognized by the Church as Goddess Larentia because a miraculous sign appeared on Celestine's body.

Celestine was a virgin at the time, and the milk flowing from her breasts is said to be as sweet as honey and to have the power to bring even the dead back to life.

## Black Keep Era

Dark elves have extraordinarily long lives. They don't die from illness or injury. Not even from old age.

Dark elves are only born female.

They're a rare breed. They have a special method of breeding.

Dark elves use a ceremony to get impregnated.

A single dark elf is chosen once every one thousand years to undertake the ceremony.

Dark elves believe that the northern part of Serenus will be revived as the male giant.

Way out in the North of Serenus is the dark elf village of Nidavellir.

There is an underground temple deep within the caves there... By bathing in those fluids, dark elves can have a child.

The cave is the testicles of the male giant. The fluid is his sperm.

Born from the mind of the male giant, dark elves revere the notion of being impregnated by their own father and creator.

And only dark elves born from the male giant's sperm are considered pure dark elves.

Dark elves yearn for it. To have the seed of the male giant, their creator, and their father, inside of their womb.

Olga was chosen to undergo the ceremony.

She bathed in the holy fluid deep within the caves of that temple to get pregnant with that precious child.

And to purify her before her precious ceremony, the Black Keep was constructed by the golems the dark elves controlled.

The magic that started to flow was just a byproduct.

The power of the demons grew and grew. They gathered together, desiring her magic.

The golems that guarded her were destroyed by the hoard of demons, and Olga was revered as the queen of monsters contrary to her desires.

Several hundred years ago, a large castle suddenly appeared at the entrance to the north. It is called the Black Keep.

Its appearance was the beginning of the change in eras.

Around the Black Keep, the land was instantly turned barren through powerful magics.

There was no day or night in that area. The sky was always christened a blood red.

A miasma hung in the air. The land was barren. The bubbling waters also all turned to poisonous green swamps.

The humans, elves, dwarves, and halflings had their strength stolen from them and their bodies deteriorated just by living there.

A rumor began to spread that a single beautiful dark elf had taken residence in the Black Keep and ruled those barren lands as the Jet Black Queen.

The land came to be called the Kingdom of the Jet Black Queen because all life deteriorated there.

But there was an exception.

Ogres, orcs, goblins, trolls, and gargoyles. All the creatures with wicked desires came from the northern hinterlands and gathered in that cursed land.

The hostile environment made it a land of the dead for humans and elves... But it was a land of abundance for those monsters.

The queen's magic gave all those wicked creatures in her kingdom immense power.

Their already immense power was multiplied several times over and their wounds started to heal in an instant.

The powerful regenerative properties granted to these creatures were enough to allow an arm to be grown back as soon as it was torn off.
