When the Morlorn attacked, four Heroes rose up to seal It away. This final stand against the evil of the Morlorn took place in the legendary city of Callinia. While the world was spared from destruction, the city of Callinia itself could not. The once great capital of the world fell to the Abyss and was left in ruin, and the everlasting empire collapsed.
The Callinian Ruins were dangerous, littered with beasts known as Abyss Walkers. A new defense was needed for this dangerous threat. Thus, the kingdoms of Aurlia founded the Abyssal Guard, an organization of highly skilled fighters and explorers dedicated to defending the realms from what now lurked in the Callinina Ruins, and anything more that may crawl from the Abyss. They swore themselves to all the realms, and not to any one kingdom. A black trim was added to the coats of arms of members of the Abyssal Guard.
With the Abyss Plague and the Morlorn's attack forever burned in everyone’s memories, it was agreed that it was of utmost importance to prevent the Abyss from entering this plane of existence. Even the cruelest dictatorships and the most ambitious empires respected the Guard’s independence.
