Over two thousand years ago, an empire died. Its existence is barely known to the world today, and those who do know of it have only scraps of information about what it used to be and how it disappeared. Now, a new empire rises up on the ashes of the old. The Galdorian Empire's expansion over the past two centuries has been enabled almost single-handedly by one man, Kellen Ainenfar, who discovered the secrets of necromancy that the old empire had once held in reverence and ultimately led to it's demise.
