It began with a spark.
Intent, carried by motivation. Ideals, ignited by passion. The continent of Pyrgos was not always divided into the two dominions of today.
Once a land unified under common principles, mankind became unkind. The blood of brothers soaked the very confines of the world as society waged war with itself, threatening the complete destruction of progress. With their conventional weapons, Beorc hunted one another ruthlessly as the Dragon Tribes of the Laguz attempted to quell the violence, whose efforts only accelerated the genocide tenfold.
But this disaster would not go unnoticed.
The Great Purge came faster than the spark itself; the gods, known as the Creators, were unforgiving of the atrocities that mankind, once their beloved invention, had committed. Their judgement was swift and severe, as all punishment would be from then on. Almost all life on Pyrgos was swept away by their power, except for the purest of hearts. The entirety of the Dragon Tribe was exiled into the rifts of limbo, their fury never to be witnessed again.
For those who were spared, they went their separate ways and drew their borders, establishing the three original nations of Cliace, Vuscar, and Rakaan. With the goal of preventing such a blasphemy, the founder and first emperor of Cliace, Ffรฆnir, declared the lands accompanying his empire as an independent separation. In agreement, King Horus of Vuscar constructed the Great Divide of Pyrgos, officially creating the Western and Eastern Separations of Verus and Priscus. The Laguz of Rakaan, wanting no part in the decision to segregate the land, maintained their neutrality.
In due time, civilization crawled from the pits of those dark days, and rose from the ashes. Mankind had learned its lesson; progress made way for the birth of several nations, and for many millenia, the Creators' will was upheld as a sacred testament.
Though, the intent and ideals of a single man stand divided between the preservation of these ancient vows, threatening the resurgence of Pyrgos' past transgressions.
