A long time ago, there was an ancient civilization. These people were nomads with no real place to call home.

The world was an unforgiving place, not many people were able to settle down and call somewhere home. Not only were there large, ancient creatures reigning at the top of the food chain, the land was not suitable for humans to inhabit. It was hot and many places were barren desert. Water was very hard to come by and was often fought over. Rain was considered a blessing.

Storms raged. Often times, the rain was very destructive. Even the creatures that did manage had a rough time.

They were built to survive. Large claws and fangs, thick skin, they were natural predators. It is said that humans were very similar to them back then. The skeletons and fossils uncovered showed humanoid animals with longer fingers and thicker bones, they were also shorter. The idea of ancient humans not using weapons is not too far-fetched.

Many skeletons were heavily damaged. More evidence of the harsh conditions of the ancient world, humans had to fight to survive. Presumably with each other, and creatures much larger than they were. There is a lack of evidence that might show whether or not humans had established society outside of primal instinct. In the current age, it’s assumed that they had not. There is no evidence of ancient cities, pottery, or anything of the like, giving further evidence to a nomadic lifestyle.

It’s not known when the ancient humans came across dragons. While there are many tales that have possible theories, a lot of evidence gives the assumption that dragons just showed up out of the blue one day. Ancient drawings, writings, even human skeletons having dragon-like qualities.

Sometime later, a tablet was also discovered. Magic was introduced to the modern world, something that was thought to have died centuries ago. There was an incident where someone curious somehow tapped into the power of the tablet. This person became the Warlock. With his newfound powers, he did truly evil things, making journals over the years.

After the Warlock was eventually captured and sentenced to death, the journals he wrote were examined by powerful magicians. They revealed horrible things reaching the darkest parts magic could go. Some of those depths had yet to be explored. The Warlock had been captured before he could complete his research.

In order to ensure that nobody else got their hands on such dark magic, the tablet was destroyed and the books were locked away for many years deep in an ancient chamber.

The books had not been as well hidden as one might think. One day, these books are uncovered again by an expedition team. The team, though knowledgeable, knew nothing about these books. But one thing was clear: they had a very dark magical aura about them.

The expedition team was curious. They brought the books to a temple where magic was practiced, and given to a very powerful witch named Veronica. She had been the one to discover that the dragon teeth could be used to amplify magic. It was unstable, as dragons possessed a very different level of magic, not to mention they were not common creatures, but she was willing to look into it. The revival of dark magic had begun…

At a price. As dragons were captured and slaughtered for their teeth, the world began to die with them…

Not immediately aware of what was going on, experiments on magic began. Humans and dragons, and other races of the world, were the victims of these experiments.

Things got even worse when some of the books were stolen from the temple. People grew more and more curious about dragon teeth and the magical properties they possessed that they’d take the experiments into their own hands…

---------------

Our story begins with two mercenaries hired by someone to track down a dragon that's supposedly been 'terrorizing' a rich farm owner and taking his/her livestock.

Little do they know, they are about to become part of something big…
