Welcome, I am Joan Ahasnyut, the Royal Advisor of Shiltz.
I will assume that those of you who are reading this text are those who know how to enjoy adventures and travels.
If you are awaiting on a new departure, or can't decide which path to take, let me make a suggestion as the Royal Advisor of Shiltz.
The land you are about to uncover!
Shiltz is a land under constant turmoil brought on by the battle between the humans and Bales protected by their two gods Elim and Balie.
This war has started during the mythical era, and still continues today.
But today, there isn't a single Bale living in Shiltz.
We cannot even imagine where the Bales have disappeared to, and what caused their disappearance, whether it was a certain event that effected the Bales...
My suggestion to you is to get to the root of this mystery by traveling to the past of Shiltz.
And watch our history unfold.Uncover the lost history, the heroes, and the truth that's been veiled by distorted historical accounts.
- Shiltz's Royal Advisor Joan Ahasnaut, Year 330
In the beginning, there was nothing in the world.
Darkness and Light, materials of all composition... these were all created from null.
Only the abyss ground was left after the destruction of the world.
At first, Malkuth fished out explosives from the Sea of Fire and hurled it across the sky.
They filled the sky as stars and the largest amongst them became the Sun.The Sun didn't stop burning until it incinerated everything.
Next, Yesod provided the foundation by flooding the world with water and thereby dousing the flames.
On the third day, Hod created the continents by forming the lands using soil.Mountainous valleys were no longer seen.
Dean of Strength erected the Pillars of Steel on the fourth day.
When Tiphareth of Flowers planted trees on the land,
the world as we know it began to take shape.
When the world was first created, it was peaceful and everyones' lives were bountiful under the auspices of the benign Elims.
However, when the Balie was born from the Elims' shadows, chaos ensued. Metatron of Doom first sprang off from the shadow of the Elim of Guidance Keterre.
The artful Laziel from Hokma of Knowledge;
Sakiel of War from Vinagh the Protector; Zadkiel of Power; Samael of Strength from Dean of Justice; Zikael of Vengeance from Tiphareth of Beauty;
Hanaiel of Blood from Neza of Achievement; Lanael of Darkness from Hod of Honor; Galadriel of Bewilderment from Yesod of Essence; and Sandalpon of Destruction.
From Malkut.
In the midst of all that, Sandalpon abducted Malkuth to his cave. Young Malkuth, just having been roused, went looking for his predecessor in Sandalpon's cave. When the young Malkuth arrived at Sandalpon's habitat, the previous Markut was already dead,and the young Sandalpon was just shedding its skin. Malkuth, enraged, hurled a bolt of lightning and war ensued. The war between the Elims and the Balies lasted for 7,000 days, and it did not cease until they razed the world they had created.
The sky and the earth were no longer able to embrace anything and the world fell into a bottomless crevice. At that moment, Elios held fast to a piece crumbling land. Elios erected four great columns to hold up the land and collected all the Elims, Balies, and other dying organisms on top of it.
That is how Shiltz was created.
Elios urged to the Elims,
Open yours eyes again. Resurrect as the world has been resurrected. But I will not allow anymore warfare on this land. You will never be able to face off each other again.
For that reason, they chose a surrogate race to wage warfare in their stead.
The Elims chose the human race which resembled them, and the Balies opted for the Bales who took after them. The Elims subsequently vanished from the world and only the Bales, devoid of their brethren and intellect were left. 'The 'seal' is a wizardry created by the Elims in their warfare against the Balies.
But the mightiest seal was performed by Erasnets, a human wizard.
Prophet Ramos was able to foresee the future using the divine mirror in his possession. For this reason, the Emperor of Shiltz consulted with Prophet Ramos when ruling his nation,
and was highly influenced the decisions he made for the future of Shiltz.
Long ago, Prophet Ramos was shown through the divine mirror, a devastating future of Shiltz never shown before. He didn't believe it at first, but what was revealed through the mirror was
the doomsday of Shiltz by brutal forces of bales, and none other than Bereth behind this horrifying scheme. When the Emperor was notified of the new prophecy, a decision was made to keep the revival of Bereth a secret in order to avoid chaos among the people. Only a select few shared this secret and set to work on strengthening a special army and developing new weapons and armors to prepare for the dark future. But in the midst of this secret mission, the Emperor suddenly disappeared, leaving the future of Shiltz in the hands of Empress Claire.
The development of new weapons and battle strategies were completed just before the predicted revival of Bereth. These weapons were kept hidden in a location under top secracy. The secret weapons were developed under advanced technology and too powerful for a common adventurers to use.
Unfortunately, the forces behind Bereth's revival had their own prophet who foresaw all this including the location of the hidden weapons. They were able to steal the weapons and spread them among their strongest bales in order to prevent Prophet Ramos from retrieving them.
It was almost impossible to remake the newly developed weapons before the revival of Bereth because the materials used for the weapons were rare and hard to obtain. The Empress decides to prepare for the battle with the bales by having recruiting the best warriors with advanced skills to go after these bales spread throughout Shiltz and retrieve the stolen weapons.
