Elemental Heroes

Humanocentric
These sidebars reflect a humanocentric version of this legend. This variation was lost to antiquity long ago, but the beginning of the quest remains intact, and you'll find details of that here.

In the land of Coneria, where prosperity has reigned for centuries and peace has stayed strong for decades, an ancient evil has spread anew. Imps have attacked the city, a noblewoman kidnapped, and palace guards gone missing. In this time of confusion, a group of warriors has taken on the mantle of saving the city. This is their story. (I swear, the swelling music and starting credits go here)
