Read MoreAscension of Malayn
The first to hold the staff was Kalas Ruiku, picking it up swift as the wind from the Astrosphere of Pisces. He brought it to Kalas Malarious of Magnagora who had the support of the combined powers of Gaudiguch, Magnagora, and Serenwilde. Knowing well that the Almighty’s power has manifested upon Capricorn, Malarious rushed there…

Though the plague seemed resistant…
Read MoreChallenge of War
The Trial of War met the early days of Dioni, finding only four teams willing to brave the Avenger’s promised tourney.
