In the final days of the crumbling Qarkisian empire of the Assassinidii people, the Black Ring has risen. An abomination, the Black Ring desires the end of the Age of Men and Gods and the rise of the ruthless chaos of the demons. The gods, to prevent this, have given the Renge twenty-four ladies. These ladies form the White Ring.
Bes Meddyn is the first to be sought out by the gods and their tutors. A huntress, she protects her small village from the demons that wander into her forests. She also keeps her people fed.
In the years before the war between the Black Ring and the White Ring, the heroes who will aid the White Ring begin to appear at the borders. The Elder Ring has been returned to its former position as judges and the nobles begin to choose sides.
