Arthur, a prince of the Holy Church born without an ounce of magic, was stripped of his royal crest by his own father, Archbishop Urban, and exiled to the slums. Ten years later, Urban bound Arthur to the pyre, using his royal blood as bait to lure Morgana, the Fallen Elf Queen, into the open so he could destroy her once and for all.
Yet driven by frenzied ambition and unadulterated hatred, Arthur persuaded Morgana instead. The Queen of the Dark Forest knelt before him, addressing him as "My King", vowing to burn the whole world to ashes for his sake.
The powerless, scorned prince forged an alliance with the most formidable Dark Queen. They slaughtered all at the execution ground, raided monasteries, forged a Throne of the Abyss, and waged a brutal vendetta against the hypocritical Holy Church. The Church’s centuries-old foundation tottered amid shadow flames, and Arthur’s ambition had only just awakened.
