The Scions Kings and their followers turned on one another like dogs fighting over the scraps of a meal as each sought to raise Arikania to new glories and to rebuild the Ancient Kingdom in their own image, however twisted that may be. The violence and blasphemy of the Five Kingdom's Era this fallen age has lasted for over three hundred and fifty years. The five Scion Kingdoms, like their founders, have very different views of what Arikania should be, and they have mastered different forms of technology and magic in their pursuit of victory. Each nation, led by the scion's noble house at its heart, will change Arikania forever if they do not destroy it in the process.
