Prologue
There was a terrain of immortality – Eternalia in the far away land of the unknown. The land beautiful, covered in lush green grass, the castles magnificent, the flowers dazzling, and pure eternality existed. Nothing grow old, nothing dies. It was said that Eternalia belongs to a family of divinity, escaped from an era of disaster in Kanagawa. The family had since survived and lived there for decades and decades, centuries and centuries. It was the wish of all man to reach Eternalia, for it was believed that if one reaches the terrain, one would gain immortality and enjoy everlasting life in the laps of luxury.
But no one had ever seen the lands themselves. Those who had did not return – alive. The route to Eternalia was filled with snags and traps, cliffs and falls. It was impossible to get across the valleys with roiling lava bubbling away furiously in it, and it was impossible to conquer the mountains that were covered in dark, thorny growth and unknown creatures that lurked within.
There was this rich man who wanted to get to Eternalia, by means of air transport – in this case, a highly advanced personal helicopter. The helicopter crashed in a typhoon and was swept back to the borders of human land. He never did survive to tell his tales.
Despite that, many still tried to achieve what the people before them had tried to, but all – failed.
Thus, the untainted land of Eternalia remained so, for decades and decades, centuries and centuries.
