In a world far removed from the traditional medieval tales, our story begins after a catastrophic event thrust the planet back into an icy age. Humanity was forced to abandon the surface and seek refuge underground, where the warmth of natural magma and lava sources offered the last vestige of comfort.

Over the span of 200 to 400 years, the majority of technological advancements were lost to history. Instead, a monarchy emerged, with lords, barons, and nobles reigning over their subterranean dominions. The underground caves were divided into regions, each controlled by powerful families known as Cave Lords, who wielded both fear and respect.
