Prologue

First War of Heroes—Xok's Knights
Legend holds that when war threatens Bersia with destruction, seven
knights will appear to bring salvation.
The legend came true when the mysterious Khiliani, leader of the Dark
Legion, took the eastern Hexter of Bersia in his campaign to destroy
the world. Seven heroes rose up against Khiliani to rally for humanity
and defend Bersia.
The battle turned when a fallen hero, Rick Miner, was resurrected
through the immortal power of the Ancient Heart. Together with the
rest of Xok's Knights, he defeated Khiliani at the Altar of Destruction.
This was the First War of Heroes, now known as "Xok's Knights."
Second War of Heroes
Rumors linger long after the end of the Second War of Heroes. What
transpired between Neeble and the Ancient Heart? Did all of the
war's participants truly vanish?
Mists. Legends. Echoes of good and evil. No clear record of this
war remains. Nevertheless, the site of its final battle—the Altar of
Destruction—now is considered holy ground.
An Uncertain Time of Peace
Fifty years have passed since the Second War of Heroes. The
legendary artifact that caused the Great War, the Ancient Heart, is a
faint memory. The Altar of Destruction lies in ruins, and none who
lived through the final battle remain.
Children no longer listen to the battle songs of hope and death from
an old man who says he was there. The adventures of the Ancient
Heart and Neeble, the tales of Xok's Knights—doesn't anyone want
to hear their stories?
Were they just stories?

And so, a peace crept into this world as a long winter changes subtly
to spring. Why not? With the Dark Legion diminished, Humanity rose
in power.
No one believed the disaster of 50 years ago could ever happen
again. There was no sign of war, and East and West Bersia have
become allies.
But, to some, it seems like a sunny sky slowly filling with clouds,
peaceful and bright. Maybe you wonder whether the clouds might
hold a passing shower or even a rainstorm?
You also might feel, however, that the answer to a question you dare
not ask draws near. Will the Dark Legion rise again? History has a
tendency of repeating itself...
Your Mission
The Dark Legion has massacred a group of villagers living near a
former battleground, which since has become sacred land. The short-
lived peace in the world is over, and the Humans and the Dark Legion
are now at war.
Choose which race you would like to play, and select one of several
character types within each race. From here on out, it's all about
war. You start out with one infantry unit, but you can acquire more
forces or develop them into more specialized and powerful units. Take
center stage in epic battles—hear the cries of soldiers, and see the
chaos of the fight. Command elite cavalry and infantry units of up to
1,000 soldiers.
After the battle, use the world map to designate where your troops
go next. While moving across the continent, you can visit castles, gain
endorsements from feudal lords, hire mercenaries, replenish your
troops, or change equipment.
The time has come to fight. Which side will you choose?
