The Legendary Four
"There was a time when the vast land stood silent. The bustling of traders or the laughter of friendly guilds was not to be heard, nor did spinning wheels busily creak, or hammers tap cheerily away. It was a time of stark isolation and division, when ancient secrets were fiercely guarded, and distrust of outsiders ran deep.
