These once peaceful lands have become infested with a great plague of beasts that run rampant all over, killing anything in their path. These beasts are believed to have been brought on by the falling of the stars, which causes corruption of their surroundings. The Hunters' Guild was founded by hunters, inventors, and veterans from the villages who banded together to fight the beastly threat with more efficiency than they could alone. Author's note: Yeah, this is super inspired by Bloodborne and Berserk.
