In the years that followed humans lived simple lives, building small towns, farms and peaceful surroundings that could nurture the healing process of the wounds that the dark forces of evil had gouged. Many of the dark ones' former servants had remained in the Above World, though they had mirculously transformed into docile and cherished creatures who would bring awe to the townspeople with their acts of godlike miracles, and their mystical powers. But humans, as throughout their history, could not resist their temptations of greed and lust, and it was only a matter of time before someone discovered that deep in the unknown regions of dark forests and underground caverns, lurked the remains of Satan's legacy, waiting for the right time to seize control of the lands. Horrid imps, brutal demons, and other wildly strange creatures that lived in near total darkness had been in hiding ever since their master's demise. Creatures so vile and corrupt, that they could not join their breathren's magical transformations. No, these creatures were forever damned to be purely tortured and twisted souls, who could not stand the sight of anything that was good or morally accepted. Certain humans, possible former Magi, had felt betrayed, and useless in the New Order, and with every passing day their jealousy and contempt for their fellow man grew. Soon, they turned to the ways of the Dark Ones to give them the power they so craved. Providing the imps with the necessary weapons and information, they began to build their army, and one could feel the dark cloud of despair spread and hang over the towns like a dense fog. At night, screams and hideous laughter could be heard coming from the trees as the imps began to raid the human settlements, stealing precious jewels, artifacts, and even capturing the mystical healing creatures and holding them as prisoners, to sacrifice to a new god, if they ever found one. After some time, it was quite apparent that the Demon War was not over. Sickness and disease began to infest itself with the population, many humans dying and still many more afflicted with various forms of dementia, as the evil forces spread themselves. Finally, the time was ripe, and the imps and demons invaded the human settlements, killing nearly everyone, destroying all that was... When would this nightmare end? Your conciousness raged with confusion as to what was real. Visions of demons and horrifying creatures filled your eyes, blocking out any other thoughts you once had of normal life. Now you knew that the real battle had begun, and instead of the war being fought in the Bowels of Hell, it was right here in your own world. Armed with the knowledge and power gained in your battle with Satan, you must do something about it.
