In the radiant kingdom of Eldoria, sunlight danced upon the marble towers, and laughter filled the air. Yet even in a land so full of light, an old legend whispered through the generations — that one day, the Queen of Darkness would return, born anew into the world, destined to shatter all peace.

To guard against that prophecy, the gods created five Warriors of Light — beings blessed with immortal souls and magic so pure it could cleanse even the deepest shadow. Among them, Lucien Aldevrant shone the brightest… but his heart was not untouched by pain. He had lived for centuries, seen kingdoms fall, and carried the weight of endless battles — all for a destiny he never chose.

One morning, beneath the pale sky, Lucien’s search came to an end. In a small, forgotten village, he found her — a little girl, barely twelve, fragile as porcelain, her clothes torn and her eyes hollow from neglect. The moment he looked into her eyes, he felt it — that faint, haunting darkness, the same energy that once consumed the world.

The wind carried silence between them. His heart tightened, not with fear, but with sorrow. She was just a child — trembling, lost, and unloved — and yet burdened with a curse she never asked for.

Lucien knelt down, his silver hair catching the light as he extended his hand. His voice was soft, almost trembling.

“You don’t have to be the darkness they fear. If the gods won’t believe in you… then I will.”
