Long ago, the world was saved by a single man — Edward Kitzu, the first wielder of all Cosmic Elements. Through his sacrifice, he unleashed an immense wave of mana across the land, birthing magic as the world knows it today. From his death bloomed the Tree of Life, a sacred monument said to link all life to Edward’s will. His legacy shaped the nations of Urgnard — a continent where magic and war are two sides of the same coin. Yet peace never lasted. From the forbidden lands of Zathe, demonic forces, once shattered by Edward''''s power, slowly rebuild their strength. Unbeknownst to most, these demons now manipulate from the shadows, infecting nations with corruption, ambition, and despair. At the heart of it all stands Ugrax Theocracy — a rotting kingdom of false holiness, where power is everything, and sacrifices are demanded in the name of "righteousness." The high priests, believing they have been granted divine favor, seek even darker pacts to ensure their dominion. Amidst this turmoil rises the infamous fugitive known only as the Black Reaper — Yaragi Nouzen. A survivor of Ugrax''''s cruelty, Yaragi wages a one-man shadow war against the very nation that betrayed its people. Branded both savior and killer, he is haunted by his past and hunted relentlessly by corrupted elites — including his former mentor, the once-heroic Vanguard Kalen, now a thrall of demonic influence. Allied with a small circle of trusted outcasts — an ancient undead strategist named Jimbles, a nimble halfling, a sharp-tongued fairy healer, and a gruff dwarven blacksmith — Yaragi fights to tear down the false theocracy from within, one blood-soaked mission at a time. However, darker forces stir beyond even Ugrax''''s decay. A trained assassin, Lycia, another ghost from Yaragi''''s shattered past, lurks in the shadows — and the demons of Zathe whisper of a greater plan: to consume Urgnard entirely, exploiting humanity’s own ambition to weaken it from within. As old heroes fall, new legends are forged in blood, betrayal, and bitter hope. The war for Urgnard has begun. And Edward''''s sacrifice may have been only the beginning.
