The world was once as one, but the greed of few led to the demise of many. A once mysterious power known as essence caused The Great Continent's divide. The beings at the heart of the separation over 400 hundred years ago, Gifvoshu, return to the earth to see that it is reunited; however, this time things have been set in motion for the gathering of five younglings that will change the course of events.

Raustel wakes to find his home leveled and not a single survivor.

Alocia and Tarvain escaped the tortuos dwellings of the castle on the horizon.

Keon was saved by Paili after a city was thrown into the sea.

Each of these events lead to their meeting and the change in course only they can manipulate. Bearing their own crosses, the younglings will have to fight in order to overcome their inward struggles while learning what it means to be true to their essence.
