Long after the age of the Ancients had faded into legend, Seyan, the young lord of Aston, raised his city above every rival. Feuding warlords knelt, and the new empire grew rich and peaceful with almost unnatural ease.
Yet Seyan was restless. His sages told him of the magic the Ancients once knew, lost when they destroyed each other, and he could not let it go.
Then word came that one of the Ancients had woken: Ishtar, first and last of the Cristalím, forged anew in the fires of Elohíl. Even the Emperor bowed before him.
Ishtar offered to teach the lost arts of magic, if the House of Aston swore to serve his Work without knowing what it was. Seyan took the vow, for himself and for all who came after him.
To train his followers, Ishtar withdrew for fifty years and built the Labyrinth, a place to overcome fear and weakness. He divided them into Mages and Warriors; those who solved the Labyrinth became his elite, the Seyan’Du.
At the first ceremony in their honour, Ishtar gave a warning: one day His Adversary would rise to destroy him and the empire.
Centuries of comfort bred greed and decay. While Ishtar was away, demons from below stormed Aston, slew the Seyan’Du and murdered Emperor Seyan XI.
Today the capital lies in ruins and the raids from the underground grow bolder. Ishtar trains anyone willing to stand against the demons, and the one whose spirit drives them. That is where your story begins.
