Darkness Flowering

---

Story

Only five years ago, while Antry was away tending to matters in Rhydin, something sinister began to arise in the land of Dawn. A dark force slowly over took the land and before anyone was the wiser, every major township or castle was under siege. Twisted, nightmareish creatures attacked night after night, slowly wearing the defenders down. Now only Ellisia, the main Elven city, the Castle of Dawn and Rathtorin, the Dwarven kingdom remain. All others have fallen before the dark army that is parading among the land.
