This kingdom was established after the Sibyl was freed by God Apollo she travelled far and wide spreading prophecies and gathering followers and she established this great kingdom which is un- defeated for over 500 years. 

But now, after 500 years the Sibyl has gone into a deep slumber for 100 years and the kingdom lays un- protected and Oblique of the Shadows is waiting for the right opportunity so that he can lay his hands on the kingdom and steal the most powerful prophetic device The Jewels of Prophecy, the jewels have been passed down from one generation to another generation. 

The one who acquires control on these jewels will be able to control destiny of oneself and others too at his/her own will as the Sibyl is in a deep slumber Oblique awaits the opportunity for grabbing the jewels for himself to fulfill his evil intentions. While in Etherarian Kingdom Queen Andera, lays her powerful administration on the Kingdom she is brave and kind hearted and was chosen none other than Sibyl herself. 

As Queen Andrea’s husband King Andrew died while fighting in a battle for Kingdom’s pride soon the Queen was blessed with a beautiful daughter Astela, a new born with blue eyes, curly brown hairs, as the Princess grew up she started becoming lazy due to the luxuries of the palace Astela was different from other kids in the entire kingdom she used to ignore Kingdom’s history and she always had different perspective about life for her life was fun – filled , with no responsibilities her care free attitude made everyone around the kingdom worried and everyone complained to Queen Andera about her nasty attitude.

Oblique of the shadows with his enormous army was waiting and welcomed the Queen with a grin on his evil face Oblique’s army took charge there was a fierce battle between the Etherarian army and the Oblique’s army due to shortage of supply and back up from the palace many Etherarian Soldiers had died due to tiredness and starvation as half of the palace was sealed by an agent sent by the Oblique himself.
