LORE
Four hundred years ago, the floating heavenly paradise of Pantheon was once blessed by the Deities of the Firmament, until a rebellion stirred in it's walls, causing the nation to crash to the earth. Its fragments shattered across the continents of Geire and Terion, leaving Panlea mostly untouched.
From the rubble came an overflow of Celestium, the raw life force of creation. Greedy humans who absorbed too much of this overflowing power mutated into colossal, immortal Giants. To save the world, a savior named Noch and a group that call themselves as Scholars sealed the Giants away, blinded normal humans to this dangerous energy, and founded Apocrypha, a stronghold to research Celestium.
Now, your grandfather Oberon has passed away, and you are the new Director of Apocrypha. Alongside your advisor Derrick, your loyal phoenix pet, and your squad; your ultimate mission is to travel the world, unite all Scholars, and build a Second Pantheon on the ground.
