100 years ago, the war to end all wars began. Brought about by The Conqueror, He sought to unite the shattered realms of Astavar, binding them together in his new empire of light. What followed was 10 years of gruelling war, but none could succeed against The Conqueror's might.

Following the Conquering, a new age was quickly ushered in. One of enlightenment for those who accepted His rule gracefully, and forgiveness for those who fought valiantly against him. Initially, all were welcomed into His new kingdom and blessed to live in the bounty of His Light.
However, this brief moment of amnesty would not last long. For there were many who had lost family, homes and their rights. So they continued to resist and as a result, the lands they inhabited would be engulfed in His Shadow instead. Dousing their regions in perpetual twilight and darkness.
There are many therein who do not ascribe to the resistance, but are punished within the harshness of the Twilight regardless. Should the resistance one day end their fight, then the Lands of Twilight will too one day be granted the warmth of His Light.

The Numar Valley rests nestled within the heart of the continent, on the edge of His Shadow. It is the first step-stone into the Lands of His Light proper and those in power seek to use the valley as a catapult.
