This is the story setting of the Throne and Liberty MMO developed by NCSoft. The story is split up into five parts. “Star-Child”… The moment you join the Resistance, history begins to unfold.
1. Star Children – The Book of Beginnings
The Star of Silaves
It is rumored that fragments of the Sealstone containing Silaves (Goddess of Destruction) were scattered around the world like stars after the stone was shattered. Those born with the power of these “stars” were called Star Children.
2. Captain Davinci’s Resistance Army – 1186 N.D.
Revil Lupius seized the throne of Solisium with the backing of the Arkeum Legions and started a brutal war. Davinci Aron and the leaders of several guilds formed the Allied Resistance Forces to stop the Arkeum Legions.
3. Witch Calanthia’s Invasion – 1192 N.D.
Meanwhile, the wizard Yan Junion was secretly protecting the Star Children so they wouldn’t become exploited as tools of war. Kazar, commander of the Arkeum Legions, dispatched the witch Calanthia to the children’s island.
4. Kazar Simosen of the Arkeum Legions – 1194 N.D.
The island was destroyed due to the invasion of Calanthia and the Arkeum Legions. Clay Carter evacuated the Star Children. Kazar continued to pursue Silaves’s star fragments to seize absolute power and satisfy his great ambitions.
5. For the Freedom of Solisium – Finally
As time went by, the Star Children grew up to become apprentice Resistance Army Soldiers. Now, you must leave Whisp Island and head to Laslan to develop the power of the stars and free Solisium from the Arkeum Legions.
