The dark world is on the rise. None will live, for they are doomed. None now will rest. They cannot resist. For the blood of the living shall be their nutrient. To the dark storms rage, through wind and rain, we feel its presence. For the dark lord will unleash his creatures of the night to infest all of mankind. But the demons of the night are greatly deceived, for there is a magical force that stands in their way. The power of the mystical swords will clash with the undead, a force that will cripple the creatures of the night. None shall resist the powers of Petoshine! The days of joy and happiness were threatened. The hope of mankind looked frail against these dark, destructive forces. But there was some optimism left with the coming of the three blades of Petoshine. It was the year 1328. For centuries, Elysium had been a land of the living and a land of the free, but was now in the throes of battle with the lizard-like called the Kongorfs. In an attempt to free the people of Elysium from the clutches of these wretched creatures, the great elf wizard Grongone set out to the city of Krog in the land of Muforia. The Kongorfs were not pleased to see him and launched a fierce attack. With a strong arm and the magical powers of his claymore, Grongone was able to force the Kongorfs back, yet there were so many of them, it wasn't long before they overshadowed the great wizard, seizing him and taking his magical sword. When they tried to wield the magic sword, however, they could not access its power, as it was linked only to Grongone. To the creatures confusion, Grongone forced the claymore back into his hand; its deep magic drew a force so strong, it pushed the creatures far off, sending them flying into the hills. Grongone approached the Kongorf's leader, Agopar, urging him to free the people of Elysium. Agopar refused to cooperate, so Grongone used the powers of the claymore and terminated twelve Kongorfs by sucking the breath out of them. "Agopar, do you wish to see more of your kind die?" he asked, brandishing his sword. "Free the people of Elysium at once." Agopar, realizing he was no match for Grongone's magic, ordered the Kongorfs to stay away from the Elysians. Over the following years, peace set upon the lands; even the Kongorf's hearts softened, and they became a great ally with the human race, and for four hundred years, man was in control of the territories. It was only a matter of time, however, before the people of Elysium began to fight amongst themselves. The Elysians were followers of church, bound to Christ, but a branch of separatists had formed, who called themselves, the Bramonians. Not only would they not serve the Lord and obey the commandments of the church. The Bramonians also refused to honor the king of Elysium, as was the rule of the land. Years had gone by, and on one day in 2248, the king of Elysium - Rofudus Tassidus was murdered. Eventually, civil war broke out. The Kongorf creatures' uprising of centuries earlier was little compared to this war of man against man. The death toll was catastrophic. At wars end, the remaining Bramonians were banned from the city, forced to live elseware. With this, it seemed once again peace was restored to the land, and the Elysians and Bramonians had forged the Cranopoltan Treaty. But lurking in the shadows was a rising dark force. Humans would soon learn, that the only thing to save them from what was to come, was solidarity among men. In the light of the evil he knew was to come, Grongone set about to create three swords of essence, three claymores of extraordinary power that he conjured in the mystical palace of Petoshine. Grongone sought three knights who would be worthy of the claymores' astonishing power. His quest to find the three men who could take possession of the great power took him on a journey across many lands, yet none who were suitable could be found, and he began to believe his search to find such...
