Prologue

Mankind has always been curious, we constantly move to explore the unknown and question to understand the impossible but even with this in-born nature to defy the expected, we still managed to fall prey to our ignorance, to believe that we are absolute and that all we know is all that there is.

In retrospect, this could be the result of mankind never having encountered a rational or intellectual force that was equal to or greater than it, giving birth to the standard model for the human mindset that held strong for countless millennia, that we were the sole thinking beasts. Though, this couldn't be further from truth for very often is discord the greatest teacher, from the fires of chaos, new experiences are born.

So what if...what if those flames gave birth to something that could shake the very foundations of the human mindset, an experience that couldn't be ignored. Wouldn't that make for quite the tale.

No, there will be time for that, and all the other great tales that you have never heard of. For now, if you wish to hear a story of Humanity, then this will be the First of Many Tales, one that forever shaped the course of history, the history of the First World.

To begin our journey, we will not start at the beginning, rather, sometime after, after the world has been established and had enough time to give birth to one of its more significant figures. The instrument of such a change would be found on the continent of Melodoria, deep within the northernmost region within a town by the name of Glynnfoldt.
