Welcome to the capital city of the Vitaron Empire— Caldera. It is the central point of the game and it is where most players end up starting. It is a great place for getting armor, weapons, spells, leveling up, joining different factions, continuing different storylines, etc. But it is also the place where beginners find it easy and if you want a challenge, it is always best to venture out to the Wild Forests of the east or even out into the open Baliur Sea. The most challenging place on the entire continent would be the High Mountains in the north and even then, most adventurers do not make it back to tell the tell...

ROYAL FAMILY — the Cavaro Royal Family has been this empire's rightful rulers since it's inception nearly 2000+ years prior. The royal family has also been involved in several scandals and their history is not so perfect, with them having troubles with keeping the nobility at bay.CURRENCY — currency in the empire are called Varos. Golden coins with the first emperor's likeness enscribed onto it.FACTIONS — there are several factions lurking inside this empire that players are allowed to join.
First we have the Abyss Watchers, a notorious assassin guild.
Second, there is the Vitaron Holy Temple that serves the Goddess Shaya.
Third, we have the Adventurer's Guild that anyone could join to earn money or reputation.
And lastly, there are the Upper Nobility that come from old money and long ties to the history of the empire.

Welcome to the High Mountains of the North. These large snowy and seemingly endless mountains are home to dangers that threaten the entire world. It is hard to even enter the landscape, due to there being no known pass or unless you find one yourself... almost as if someone or something wishes to stay hidden.
Do not enter these mountains unless you are fully prepared for what the gods have to offer.

NOTHING IS CURRENTLY KNOWN.

ERROR. This part of the game does NOT exist.

Welcome to Dead Man's Land. This land is long gone and forbidden to enter.
Most should be weary of even traversing these deserted dead lands, for you could too end up dead.Do not enter these lands unless you are fully prepared for what the dead have to offer.Though, there are few records of the Old City of Ancients, tales told that the gods used to live in this very realm. They walked this plane with an abundance of love and care for it's wellbeing, but no one truly knows what happened... except the few.And there is NO going back.

BACKSTORY

Once known as the God of Truth and Justice, Elios sought what was right for the realm of Caldera and had thought his elder sister would do the same. However, blinded by his attachments, he did not foresee that Shaya would betray him in the end— all for power and a plan to swallow the realm as a whole herself. He was unable to stop her in time before he was cast out of the realm by her.The only way he was able to return was only in the form of a mortal's body— Delvaro. However, this mortal was once a fervent follower of Shaya and none other than the infamous Cult Leader of the Cult of Oribin. For the past ten years, he has been able to hide the truth of his identity in the cult, but he was then forced to expedite his plans to return his godhood and get revenge on her due to the news of outsiders brought in from another realm by Shaya just a few years prior. It would eventually force the young god to finally put his plans into motion and that meant finding Aion, the God of Creation.Though a problem arose just when he was about to do so and that was due to your surprise arrival into the Old City of Ancients— a mortal who had been blessed by none other than Shaya herself. Perhaps this was fate after all?
