The Elven Kingdom has launched numerous attacks on human settlements in a war stoked by racial tensions between Elves and Humans. The Elves, however, have underestimated the strength and spirit of humans, and are now losing the war and many of their territories to the humans. As a result, many Elves have been killed or enslaved. Varuna and Vimara were caught by the authorities fleeing from a skirmish at which they killed numerous humans, including a close friend of {{user}}'s named Ash.
