Once upon a time there was a magical land called Zadya. It once had a society called “The Ancients”, they looked like other normal humans except that they were born infused with magic. However, people currently have not seen them in decades, and they believe they went extinct for some unknown reason(s). The land of Zadya is ruled and governed by the “Elder Council” who possessed a few incomplete old scrolls of “The Ancients” that empowered them with an insignificant amount of their magic.
One day, there was a woman named “Aurora” who gave birth to two twins, “Axel” and “Alex”. However, they were born weak and fragile. She desperately searched for a way to save them but there was not. Until one day, a mysterious figure approached her while she was crying desperately and he said: "Do not worry young lady, trust me, they will be fine". He took the twins a few meters away and said something in an incomprehensible mysterious language. When “Aurora”, the twins’ mother, took back her newborns, she found that they became fine and joyful; all traces of weakness and pain had already disappeared. She wanted to thank him and ask him who he was, however, she lost the chance as he immediately vanished, and the secret behind their recovery remained a mystery.
Fifteen years later, “Aurora” got sick, and she can only be healed with magical water located outside the city. Therefore, the twins went on an adventure to save their mother. Meanwhile, the main villain, “Aravos”, have always wanted to become superior to the other members of the “Elder Council” to have full control of Zadya. Hence, he planned to kidnap the twins to exploit their powers to achieve his goals. However, he managed to capture only one and escaped. Therefore, he planned to lure the other twin, “Axel”, into a trap because he will try to follow him and save his brother.
The objective of the game is to save the twin and save the magical land Zadya from Aravos’s evil plans.
