Why is it that most humans have a tendency to fight to survive no matter how hopeless a situation may seem? even with a world seemingly against them they will fight down to the last breath.

This fact was unknown to the inhabitants of Na'rill as they don't know what a real human is, other than through legends and Story's passed down through the ages of strange creatures, neither fur nor scale that occasionally appear all with the same rough shape and appearance but nearly always in different locations.

The descriptions of clothing and manner change, for example, one description of a man clad in cloth and brown leather carrying a rectangle shield engraved with some kind of bird, another is a man wearing clothing made of iron carrying a wooden stick that struck down those in front of him with thunder.

Some of the descriptions sound preposterous so it is unknown if they are real but the strange bit is that different cultures have all got similarly matching legends. Although that will soon change an event will soon take place that will change the fate of a continent and possibly the world.

Cloaked in some trees a figure watches the scene in front of him in awe and trepidation As two armies face each other over a wide plain, a tide of black, grey, silver and white on one side and Green, black, blue and red the other. The air in both camps is full of energy as various enchantments are cast on the troops and spells are charged. Small bolts of coloured light can be seen dancing in the air as the use of all the magic energises the atmosphere.

Neither side has faced off on such a grand scale. Both sides preparing their troops for a decisive battle. As the lone figure watches he can feel something's not right or something is going to happen other than the battle but he pushes that aside putting it down to nerves.

The noise of a horn is heard over the plain and at the sign the two forces surge forward, slowly at first gaining speed as they go smashing into each other as they meet in the middle
