Welcome back guys, it's me, Redeye. I'm extremely proud to present the recreation of the original Dark Legion update and comments thread. From here until the end of this post I will be informing you all about the various details and features Dark Legion has to offer. By showing off some neat ideas i'm sure this attempt will be better than any other. Without further ado, let's get on with this! First we will be looking back to the times of old, where our "little story" begins.....
One thousand years ago, in the vast world of Tameria, the eight continents rest in peace and tranquility. However, life was not easy in these lands. It was only then the great demon known as "The Devourer" was created. Upon his birth, he was destined to throw the entire world into shadows. In other words, "Devouring" the lands.
Exedra, the Goddess of Wisdom, grew angry over the Devourer's power as a demon king. The goddess then created Eight relics, known as the Orbs of Exedra. These orbs are the keys to punishing the demon. Such relics could only be controlled by people of Exedra's blood, or demigods of the goddess herself.
Exedra then lended her power to a newborn child. This child's name was Jade. With this power, he became a being known as a Child of Omen, Descendant of the Goddess. Jade was destined to defeat the Devourer once and for all, and so he did when the time came to him.
The birth of Jade was known as the first event of the Ixidia, Chronicle of Omen.
After the Devourer's defeat, Jade used the Exedra Orbs he had collected, and sealed the foul demon into the Eternal Void, the land where the demons rest.
The Devourer's falling became the second event of Ixidia. People nowadays celebrate this day as "Daedrum", a holiday in remembrance of the demon's demise.
Ten years after the Daedrum, war broke out between the continents of Idonia and Ekkard. A fight over power. Jade would not agree with meaningless conflict, so he decided to end it by himself. Though, even though Jade was a citizen of Ekkard, he sided with Idonia for his own personal reasons.
A few years after the war started, Jade was able to confront the heart of Ekkard's power, the king himself. Jade then used his hidden power, Maelstrom, to defeat the King of Ekkard. Maelstrom was a gift by Exedra, used in only times of despair. With the king's defeat, the war came to an end.
The Ending of the Idonian/Ekkardian Civil War was the third event of the Ixidia.
It was only five years after the war that Jade began to realize that he was dying. His powers were sucking him from his life sources. His final moments were remembered greatly, as Jade was forced to say his final goodbyes to his newborn son, Gabriel. Just a few hours later, Jade died, and was encased in diamonds.
Jade's Death was the fourth and final event of Ixidia.
As Jade's child began to mature, a spark of hope was regained. As the son of the hero, he had some remaining power of Exedra in him. It was almost like a cycle of power, of heroism.
Things began to change for the world, as the seal to the Eternal Void slowly began to weaken. Gabriel then made his journey to retrieve the Exedra Orbs again, and he recreated the seal. After his victory, Gabirel spent the rest of his life as a normal citizen. He then raised his own child, and died soon after.
People began to notice a loop, a loop of events. Every 100 years a new Child of Omen is born, and matures enough to redo the quest to strengthen the Void Seal. This began something called the Cycle of Omen.
However, this quest went a bit differently than the others.
This quest all started with a girl named Siara.
