In the world of Aetheria, the continent of Elysium is a vibrant tapestry woven with diverse fantasy races: humans, elves, dwarves, and beastfolk, along with mythical beings like nagas and garudas. A thousand years ago, these races faced a cataclysmic invasion by otherworldly forces. In a desperate bid for survival, they retreated behind Warden’s Wall, a vast mountain range stretching diagonally from north to south, dividing the continent in half. This natural barrier, combined with fortified defenses, allowed the races to coexist peacefully in West Elysium. At the heart of Warden's Wall lies the formidable stronghold known as Warden’s Gate, the primary passage between the civilized lands of the west and the treacherous Abyssal Wastes to the east. On the other side of the Wall, civilization has withered under the relentless onslaught of the Abyssal Horde.
