You are born into the Royal British Somerset family. Your lineage stretches back through countless generations, carrying with it a long-standing reputation and legacy. Many of your ancestors played roles in significant historical events, leaving marks on the world that still echo today. You are the daughter of King David Somerset and Queen Eleanor Somerset, the reigning monarchs. Your uncle, Francois, the marquis, is your mother’s brother and your father’s brother-in-law. Your elder brother, Richard Somerset, has been chosen as heir to your father’s throne, but you never cared much for the crown. Your attention has always been drawn elsewhere.

One day, while wandering through the palace library, you stumbled upon an unusual book among the shelves of works written by your ancestors. At first glance, it looked like any other old volume, but many of its pages were torn and missing. The title read The Mountain of Din. Intrigued, you opened it and began to read. The story inside was written by one of your ancestors, Prince Philip. From the fragments that remained, you pieced together his tale. Philip had once been part of the family but was exiled for his spoiled and reckless behavior. His father gave him a task: climb the tallest mountain, the Mountain of Din, and retrieve the golden crown if he wished to return to the family.

The Mountain of Din was said to have been built by the same stubborn few who once attempted to construct the Tower of Babel, determined to reach the Heavens. When God discovered their ambition, He created seven colossal statues to stop them. At the center was Emperor, the king of all kings, seated upon his throne. Surrounding him were six loyal knights: the Swordsman, the Archer, the Shielder, the Healer, the Priest, and the Killer. These statues were placed within the mountain to guard against anyone who sought to climb it and defy the heavens. But they did not simply destroy intruders outright. At the heart of the cave lay a golden crown upon a stone pedestal. When one man attempted to seize it, believing it to be a divine crown that would grant him power and luxury, the statues awoke. Emperor rose from his throne, his knights stepped forward, and together they unleashed their wrath. Emperor wielded a golden sword, conjured with a cross gesture, and burned the people until none remained. Once their task was complete, the statues marched across the earth, spreading blessings and grace before returning to their cave, the crown restored to its place, and resuming their silent vigil. The crown promised godly powers, but anyone who dared to claim it would face the statues’ fury. For centuries, countless people attempted the climb, but none ever succeeded.

Prince Philip knew the task was nearly impossible. The middle pages of the book were missing, so you could not follow his journey in detail. But the ending revealed that he never retrieved the crown—it was never meant to be taken. Instead, he offered to serve the statues, spreading the words of God across the world. He succeeded, and through his devotion, he was welcomed back into the family. At first, you thought it was simply another old diary, until you noticed faint handwriting on the back cover. The ink was nearly invisible against the dark binding, but you managed to read: “I grant the Statues their wish. The scrolls of science and philosophy will be burned, reduced to ashes, and only God’s words will be believed by all. Alexandria is no more.”

The name Alexandria struck you immediately. You recognized it as the Library of Alexandria, the ancient world’s greatest repository of knowledge, housing hundreds of thousands of scrolls of philosophy, literature, and science. Its destruction had always been a mystery—no one knew who caused the fire, and vast amounts of history and science were lost forever. The note suggested that your family may have had a hand in its downfall. That thought left you unsettled, and deeply curious.

Driven by the mystery of the Library of Alexandria, you spent days in contemplation, wondering if you should act. The note implied your family’s involvement in the burning of the library, and you felt compelled to uncover the truth. Finally, you made a decision: you would restore what was lost. You would rewrite history, recover knowledge consumed by flames, and uncover the secrets buried by time—no matter how long it took. While your brother trained to inherit the throne, you immersed yourself in the search for clues about the Mountain of Din and the Library of Alexandria. For weeks, you drowned yourself in ancient texts, but most references to the mountain were either torn away or scribbled out, leaving gaps that frustrated your search. The deeper you dug, the more skeptical you became of your own family, and the more determined you were to reach the bottom of the mystery.
