For ages, the land of Galafinasia has enjoyed a time of peace. Its people lived during the time of what was known as the Golden Age of Prosperity. Trade routes remained safe, and trade flowed freely between the races.
However, no amount of peace can last forever. During this era of peace, everything remained in balance. Now, many dark forces are arising and threatening to tip the scales of that balance. The Shamans grow restless, angered at being forced to stay in their own territory. Their hunger for battle has reached the point of insatiable. The humans themselves have always resented the other races, and in these troubled times, that resentment is only building. What's more is that the Necromancers and the Dark Elves have feuded for centuries. Now, in the prolonged era of peace, tensions between the races grow ever more strained. War is upon the people of Galafinasia and the other races are doing nothing about it. They refuse to believe that the prolonged era of peace is coming to an end. However, war is coming, whether they like it or not.
Alliances will be formed, and loyalties will be tested. Families will be ripped apart, and blood will be spilled. Time is of the essence. The balance of the world must be restored so that peace can reign once more. Dark times are upon the citizens of Galafinasia and many won't like it, but it's coming, regardless of whether or not people choose to recognize its arrival. War must be fought, and evil must be vanquished if Galafinasia is to ever see an era of peace again.
