Timeline
Welcome to FHX Restoration. A world where more than a thousand years ago, three nations traveled to the central continent called Herrcot. In this continent the powers of magic are the strongest in the world. The greatest Sage of that time convinced the kings that they could gain unimaginable power in Herrcot.
To do this, deep within the earth the three nations built a temple to tap the vast magical powers of Herrcot. The leaders of the three nations all had their most powerful wizards make ”Dimensional Keys” and through an ancient ritual, they tried to open a portal to a different dimension. This is when evil was unleashed upon the land, more than a hundred years of war destroyed most of civilization. Finally, legendary heroes were able to drive the forces of evil back to the continent of Herrcot and sealed them there for the past 1000 years.
As a wandering adventurer you find yourself in the continent of ROG, being able to explore its two provinces: Glorious Imperial Territory and South Rog Frontier, where strange things are happening lately and there are rumors of evil rising. This is where your story begins.
