Long ago, there existed a kingdom in ruins that was name Boletoran. And like most kingdoms in ruins, it could be rebuilt. Yet a kingdom was built, but not attached to the ground. But where the kingdom could almost touch the Elysian skies, a floating kingdom in the sky, something from a legend one may wonder. But this was no legend, t’was bustling with life on its cobblestone streets to the stained glass and the many shops that loomed the corners.
This flying kingdom was named after the late passed Queen Krilia De Lifon. To the Promethian tongue deciphered meant, “Long Lasting Queen”. The kingdom that floated to the skies was called.
Salesia Landis.
And like many of its occupants that resided in Salesia Landis, its people loved Queen Krilia De Lifon. A queen who truly deserved a long life passed on the torch to her twin daughters.
Lunia, an azure coated, flowing starry mane princess of Salesia Landis, devoted to the House of Night, she rose the moon and brought down it glorious light. And her twin sister Kalian De Lifon, a mare of snow fur and mane beautiful as any cherry blossom that fell to our streets and grew upon the trees. She was the general of her

own Royal Guardsmen, a princess loved by her people and a devotee to the House of Light and Kaos. It was also she that raised the sun and brought down its radiant beauty, to give way for the moon to rise.
Salesia Landis, a kingdom flourishing with its godling princesses and mortals would praise their worth. The Kingdom brimmed with life, until that fateful day which would bring not only terror, but Nightmares also.
Lunia fell ill, a sickness that caused a deep sleep, doctors from below of the Five Nations could not help nor pinpoint the cause of her sleep, Night, goddess of the moon, was enraged by the saddening news of her ill child and brought forth to Salesia Landis a curse.
Some laughed; some pitied the moon goddess for the ill princess of Salesia Landis, but all waited for the arrival of this supposed curse. But with one princess to move the sun and moon, proved taxing on the single princess Kalian De Lifon. At times she would pass out. Other times she would vomit, but she too fell ill.
Only Lunia recovered… Kalian De Lifon did not.
Night’s came down from the Spire of Truth to visit Lunia, to grant her a blessing, yet felt sadness to the fallen princess.
All was fine. Life returned to normal in Salesia Landis, but the curse existed, for on the Month of Dying, on the twenty-fifth, 1012B.S.D . Salesia Landis was slowly engulfed by a black fog. Where the night reigned and was everlasting, never to see the sun. Of course, that was not the full extent of the curse.

Darkness ruled the kingdom of Salesia Landis; Evil Ones stormed the sky kingdom. Feralis Equinox rode the sky beasts, the Rokks, the thunder birds of Equinox in Ragnarok. The mindless monsters killed, slaughtered, and ate the citizens of Salesia Landis. But the curse turned their hearts. Black.
Soon enough the citizens of Salesia Landis dwindled and the Blackhearts grew. Palebloods as they were called by the citizens of Salesia Landis. What remained of them at least. But the terror was just beginning from the arrival of the Equinox, soon after the vile monsters known as Nightmares invaded the kingdom without mercy. It mattered little whom they killed for long as they had blood and souls, they killed with no remorse.
The Black Hearts were sent all across Salesia Landis, but not to the same Nexus. It was the same world but not the same plane. What remained of the population built a second castle to hide away the remaining princess. This kingdom, this lonely castle was Dream Lake where the Scarlet Oracle resided. And she was Lunia. Forced to remain in the castle where only the chosen of Palebloods would go, alive or Paleblood, branded by the Equinox and Nightmares, as the Black Hearted.
The terror was presumably over, as many a resistance fought against the Evil Ones, but could hardly stand to fight the good fight with little to no hope of ever saving the kingdom of Salesia Landis. The Nightmares, the Equinox was too much for a small army to fight.
Hope was dying. And so were they.

Yet Salesia Landis did not suffer enough. For another threat, a much larger, more powerful force entered the dark fog and entered the kingdom of Salesia Landis. ArchFallen, daemoras sent by Turok, the god of Tartarus. He sent four ArchFallen to Salesia Landis. One controlled the other three and she remained in Dream Lake waiting for the fools to enter the castle.
Inkimena Diane Soul, controller of the ArchFallen and devotee to the god Turok, in both lust and physical to the god of the underworld.
Jorenia, a vixen that would kill and would bathe in the blood of her fallen opponents and slaughter for the glory of Turok, both weak and unarmed Palebloods would die at her bladed whip.
Sabbath, an ancient creature from whence earth was first created, known as the king of dinosaurs. Blind, armed to the teeth with hexes and black magix, the towering lizard king would not be toppled easily as Sabbath is Turok’s enforcer.
And lastly was the infamous black harbinger of Turok.
Warenth, a wolf armed with blades that can cleave diamonds and mountains apart. A daemora unlike other, he possessed a mortal body to achieve immortality so he may serve Turok forever as his Black Knight in Tartarus.
After a month or so, Salesia Landis was now brimming with husks, Equinox and the Nightmares, haunting, looming, and hunting in the ruins of Salesia Landis. But one beast escaped the black fog and fell to the ground below. Magnia of the twin blades, the foolish lizard found an escape and from his haste, he ran to the towns and

kingdoms telling of knights, adventurers, bandits, and many others who sought after fame and fortune to never come to Salesia Landis. The black kingdom, surrounded by fog in the darkened sky.
Yet the call of adventure, plunder, and glory to add to a name was not so easily resisted.
Tried as the leather cladded raptor pleaded, none would listen to the warnings of the elden warrior of Salesia Landis, all he could do was watch the many warriors that marched on to Harmony. They all had one thing in mind. To conquer the fears and monsters of Salesia Landis. But warning, rumor and Magix would not prepare them for the challenges of laid ahead. And the same went to the kingdom lost to the dead, to the Equinox, to the Nightmares.
Yet the true treasure… The Dragons shard of Salesia Landis. Is the secret that kept the kingdom afloat.
And legend told of a warrior whom would take the shard and never return. But legend is only legend.
The story begins with a lioness, but not one whom may look the part, yet the truth will be revealed very, very soon.
