The Story

The delicate balance of power between the kingdom of Ehb’s factions has been violently torn asunder. As one of the few remaining members of the 10th Legion, the disgraced protectors of the land, it is up to you to rebuild the once-great Legion and stop Ehb from falling into darkness.

  • Anjali is an Archon, a literal legend come to life. She is able to shift freely between her human form and an incarnation of pure elemental fire. A creature of both martial and mystical abilities, Anjali does not know how she came to this world, what happened to the others of her kind or the true extent of her awesome power.
