During the Dark War, the First Battle of Terminus unfolded as a pivotal chapter, marked by Abraxas's relentless pursuit of power and the empowering of the enigmatic Armor of the Damned. Prince Elliott of Arium, recognizing the impending threat, valiantly defended the city against the malevolent forces orchestrated by Abraxas.

Despite Elliott's heroic efforts, the overwhelming might of Abraxas led to a strategic retreat from Terminus. With the city subdued, Abraxas harnessed its energies to empower the mysterious armor, signaling the onset of the invasion of Nax Fort and casting a foreboding shadow over the Crean Isles.
As the malevolent storm of the Dark War gathered its strength, the First Battle of Terminus emerged as a pivotal chapter, etched in the annals of Crean Isles history. This clash unfolded during the ominous phase of "Bound to the Dark," a time when Abraxas, fueled by an insatiable hunger for power, sought to unlock the latent potential of the mysterious Armor of the Damned, discovered within the chaotic convergence of the elemental planes. Terminus, a city of strategic importance and then under the dominion of Arium, found itself precariously perched on the precipice of impending doom. Prince Elliott, the valiant scion of Arium, recognized the gravity of the approaching storm and took it upon himself to defend the city against the encroaching shadows. Abraxas, cunning and relentless, aimed to breach the defenses of Terminus, and to achieve this, he first sought to dismantle the protective barriers erected by four elemental lords strategically positioned in different towns. These lords, guardians of their respective domains, were the last line of defense against the looming darkness. Elliott, resolute in his determination, stood as the vanguard in Terminus, rallying the city's defenders in anticipation of the impending assault. The elemental lords, each holding a critical position in the protective barrier, prepared to withstand the malevolent forces seeking to tear through the fabric of reality. The clash unfolded in orchestrated chaos. Abraxas, employing a sinister strategy, dispatched four of his disciples to eliminate each elemental lord individually. As these lords fell one by one, their protective barrier weakened, allowing the inexorable advance of Abraxas towards Terminus. Elliott, displaying both valor and tactical acumen, held his ground against the encroaching darkness. The streets of Terminus became a battleground, illuminated by the eerie glow of magical clashes. Yet, despite his heroic efforts, the overwhelming might of Abraxas proved insurmountable. The Prince, recognizing the dire circumstances, orchestrated a strategic retreat, ensuring his survival as he fled to the sanctuary of Nax Fort. With Terminus subdued, Abraxas, undeterred in his pursuit of dominance, channeled the captured city's energies to empower the mysterious Armor of the Damned. The ominous silhouette of the dark lord, now adorned with newfound strength, signaled the prelude to the invasion of Nax Fort, casting a foreboding shadow over the Crean Isles. The First Battle of Terminus thus became a haunting prologue to the unfolding darkness that would engulf the realms in the chapters yet to come.
