Come the morn, men prepared. The king has called for his entire army for the bloodiest war yet.

Jibril the Conqueror, they called the tyrant. He has conquered the neighboring cities in less than a year. Already, a quarter of the kingdom has fallen. Now his army marches towards the capital, trampling every city in its wake, raiding small villages, raping women left and right, burning people to send terror.

It got to the point that the grand army of the Kingdom of Plants were crushed into half of its original sum. The King's desperation is sound and stout. And in the wake of his queen's sudden death, choreographed by Jibril's assassins, he clung to his misery. In his absence, the Kingdom fell piece by bloody piece into the tyrant's greedy hands.

In utter hopelessness, one of the King's advisor, Marquis Siegel Clyne, in cooperation with Grand Duke Patrick Zala, knocked on a far neighbor's heart. He sent an eagle to the East, the fastest he had, and on its claw lies the future of Plants.
