Chapter I - Pride Conquers Wisdom
In the time before the great Atlerrian war, there existed a tranquil kingdom, home to the first of all beings, the elves.
With wisdom and strength they reigned over all of the known world, from the southern kingdom, to the great ice cliffs of the north. Using powers of nature they would manipulate the world as they saw fit - creating new lands and species. Guardians of the ancient ’Orbs of Nature’, they were life-givers of the Alterra realm.
The oldest of these elves was the Queen herself. She ruled her kingdom with incomprehensible wisdom and governed her race for centuries as they populated as far as the great light reached. For many years, the elven schools taught the young of magics and the ways of wizardry. Allies to the environment, the elven race advanced at unrivaled pace gaining wisdom and great understanding. The wisest of these elves, Marlow, showed great potential from a very early age and was appointed as the Queens right hand advisor. Together they would rule over the species of Alterra and reconcile matters of conflict within the realm maintaining peace and harmony between the races.
Unfortunately the new generation was excelling in wisdom far faster than their ego could handle and soon their pride took over. They began demanding from nature, rather than working along side it as the elves before them had done for centuries.

The Queen detected this change and demanded a complete shut down of all Elven schools in an attempt to quench the flame of pride. She ordered that practice be limited to healing and preserving nature. However, drunken on self-confidence and convinced that dark magic was the way forward, Marlow began conjuring plans to overthrow the Queen and lead the Elven race to an era of increased wisdom and power.
