The birth of remnant is an odd story shrouded in myths, stories and legends.

One such legend has dated back hundreds of thousands of years ago with a species of predatory humanoids who could only walk at night, they were referred to as the pillar men, they were called pillar men because in order block themselves from the sun's lethal rays of that did not effect man. For centuries the pillar men cowered from the sun until one brilliant minded pillar man and his friend strived to evolve and cure their people of their weakness to the sun, they forged many masks carved from stone and when blood was spilt upon it would unlock the brain's hidden potential with spikes that would come out and stab the brain; however due to the physical thickness of their bone structure it only unlocked some potential, in order to become immune they would need a perfectly cut dust crystal referred to as the red stone of aja. Before they could start their search, the elders heard of the plans of the two pillar men, forcing them to wipe out their own people with the exception of two children whom they would raise to aid their conquest.

The pillar men began to terrorise the world of man and became yet another threat along side the grimm that would wish to send man back to the world of dust- but a group of hunters lead by an ambitious young priest would form a tribe that could harness the sun's power and harm the pillar men, they were called the hamon tribe. Unfortunately one member found a stone mask and betrayed his comrades, and become a vampire and would assist in the near annihilation of the tribe, but they were spared when the pillar men found out that an emperor from a far away nation possessed the stone of aja and thus three out of the four pillar men traveled to the country only to forever seal themselves away when the empire crumbled.

Centuries passed and one of the stone masks was found by a tribe, they would use the mask for sacrifices of chosen individuals in tribute of their Gods however disease would take the tribe and the masks were thought to have been lost forever until now….
