The Kingdom of Theyrin is one of the most powerful nations in the Westlands, both in political and military might. Founded long ago during the Dark Ages, the kingdom has prospered immensely under the rule of the honourable 'Knight-Kings' of the house of Theyrin. The most recent of these kings, King Therot VI, has proven just as capable, although many disparage his hedonistic tendencies.

A result of his hedonism and unshackled lust is 9 separate children, all to 9 separate mothers and mistresses. Despite this, the worries of succession have long been quashed by the King, who refused all marriage proposals and declared the line of succession would follow his bastard children.

The youngest of these children is Princess Gisla, is the daughter of a lowborn mercenary, and seemingly destined for nothing special. Unfortunately however, since her early childhood, Gisla has been plagued with what she describes as visions of the future. Knowing the inevitability of her visions, the princess spends most of her days locked in her room, stuck in a state of complete and total melancholy.

It is the second year of the Age of Dawn, and, coming off of the throes and strife of the Dark Ages, the world is once again advancing in a direction that seems to be prosperity and stability. On the Human Continent, historical records have begun being made again, and the dangers of the untamed wilds seem less like a warning and more like an opportunity.

The various kingdoms in the Westlands turn their gazes east into the Wild Forests, seeking to trade and negotiate with the Wildmen of the region in a hope to civilise the untamed centre of the Human Continent. At the same time study and education have been growing tremendously both in the Westlands and throughout the Human Continent.

The Wildmen have long dominated the Human Continent since the Dark Ages first began, all the now existing kingdoms being descended from these Wildmen as well. Most of the thousands of tribes still keep to themselves, but the Dark Ages are now over, and progress is on the way for the tribes, who will soon have to found kingdoms of their own to survive the advance of time and technology.

While it seems like a great era of progress and innovation however, not all is sunshine and rainbows. In the east of the Human Continent the Wildmen of the Eastern Wastes continue to throw themselves at the Guardian Mountains, seeking to escape the wastes to pillage and conquer the fertile lands of the Human Continent. Not all is as it seems though, and the Wildmen of the Wastes seem more desperate to escape the Eastern Wastes with each year.

The Dark Ages was a period of history directly preceding the Age of Dawn. As its name suggests, the Dark Ages was a period in which very little records exist, and in which records of the ages before were lost or destroyed. Due to this nature, very little is known about the Dark Ages, with most information coming via word of mouth and oral traditions passed down through the generations. It is generally accepted that for the majority of the Dark Ages most of the world experienced a cultural and technological reset, with minor exception to the Icarae.

The exact extent of how long this Dark Age period lasted is unknown, and concrete information about the age before is also unknown. What is known is that generally kingdoms and countries only started to form again in the final millennia of the Dark Ages.
