A powerful demon, called Conath, commissioned the forging of a weapon that would allow him to enslave worlds; thus the Axe of Fate was born. Before Conath could take possession of the ax, it was pulled from the forges and turned against him. Enraged Conath threatened to destroy everything; it was that moment that the seas flood into the land and froze. Unable to break though the magical ice protecting those responsible for the theft and with the threat of his new weapon turned against him, Conath fled the world Onviness.In the aftermath, new lower lying land was exposed by the absence of the seas' water, although under a continuous shroud of clouds and misting rain. This land was soon inhabited by refugees from other parts of the world.Meanwhile the Axe of Fate seeks to return to the hands of its master; the one who pulled it from the forges.As the years pass, the Axe allows itself to be wielded by Koven Goldenfields. Together they form the Kingdom of Chivelestine from the chaotic tribes of humans within the lowlands. For many years after this the Axe goes dormant.Then the Axe chooses Gavista Goldenfields, Koven's grand-daughter, to wielded it. Joined with Karvian, the Commander of the Chivelestine Army, they venture forth to investigate a new threat to Chivelestine. Gavista is plunged into a massive new world of discovery away from her sheltered life in the castle. A world of demons, dragons, magic, and the looming destruction of the lowlands by the thaw of magical ice.
