SYNOPSIS
1000 years of peace have reigned, the world has forgotten the
horrors of the age of myth. Such peace can never last forever
and evil waits patiently. The first signs of the evil
awakenings were the friendly monsters turning aggressive; followed
soon after by demons attacking and the dead rising from their
graves. Heroes appeared to beat back the invasions until the
fateful day that Satan Morocc destroyed the peaceful town of
Morroc, his freedom granted by the insane and corrupt humans of
Midgard. The heroes re-gathered themselves and pushed back
with everything they had but only a stalemate was possible.
The delicate seals that protect the world from spilling into
complete chaos weaken and break; only the knowledge and power from
the age of myth can save Midgard from certain doom. Are you
one of the heroes of legend? Can you and your allies push
back the threat of total annihilation and protect Midgard from the
final Ragnarok?
Every great adventure starts with a step; take your first step
by joining today!
