The Legend Begins...
In ages past, before the world was wrought with war and strife, humans co-existed with their creators. The gods made themselves nothing more than men among men and lived as their creations did. They did not use their powers for controlling purposes, as such measures were unnecessary in a world with few evils. Instead they brought balance and harmony to the people and allowed them to live free of worries, guilt, or sin.

For many thousands of years did the gods prosper with their creations, though the prosperity did not necessarily coincide with the time that had passed. Men became more greedy and expected more of the gods. When the gods refused to support their greed, they decided instead that their creation was not so perfect as they had thought. Something had interfered with the influence they exerted on the simple minds of humanity. With this in mind they departed the mortal plane to search for the cause of the unrest, much to the dismay of their creations.

When several hundred years had passed and still the gods had not made their return, the population of the planet had declined sharply, as the inhabitants knew not how to survive without the aid of their makers. Mellenia passed, and slowly but surely the race of mankind had begun to repopulate. Science emerged. Sprawling cities enveloped the once-beautiful lands of Arca and consumed the earth's resources at a staggering rate. Towers shot into the sky further than the eye could see; electromobiles zipped across the skyline; and all the wants of men were satisfied at the whim of a spoken word.

Men had all but forgotten about the creators they once so heavily relied upon. They had forgotten about the unconditional, eternal love once shed upon them by their celestial creators. They had made their way out from under the wings that once sheltered them and forged an existence all their own. When at last they had reached their peak of technology and there was nothing earthly left to be had, men looked to the stars. It was then that they realized there was an entire universe awaiting them, free for the taking. And so they built a vessel that would take them as far as their hearts desired: Skyspire.
