Long ago, the world was ruled by a race of mighty giants, known as The Forgers. In their wisdom, they reigned over a time of magnificence and wonder, until a devasting war erupted, and their civilisation fell into ruin. Faced with the looming threat of annihilation, The Forgers fashioned human beings to accept their mantle and bestowed upon them their most treasured legacy, the secret of The Steel. With this knowledge, humanity rose to power and came to dominate all. Thousands of years have passed, and the mighty Queen Nerea has cast a spell that turns her enemies’ steel to stone, twisting the legacy of the Antient Forgers against most of humanity.

Aran de Lira

Aran de Lira, the son of the King’s Ward Commander, grew up alongside Princess Nerea and Prince Erin, sharing a close bond with the royal siblings.
However, a tragic event in his youth left an indelible scar on his soul. Though the pain lingers, shaping much of his life, Aran has shown remarkable resilience. He refuses to let his past define him entirely, choosing instead to focus on others’ well-being and face his responsibilities with unwavering resolve.
Now entrusted with the weighty task of killing the queen, Aran is determined to honor his duty and forge his future through strength and courage.

Adso

Fate leads the young Adso de Zelk to accompany Aran on his journey. A student of the Abbey of Egion, Adso offers invaluable support throughout Aran’s quest.
In combat, Adso plays a crucial role as a strategist, meticulously analyzing enemies and documenting their traits in the travel book. This growing compendium provides insights into each foe, helping Aran devise more effective strategies to overcome them.
Beyond battle, Adso’s keen intellect shines in solving puzzles and deciphering ancient texts and spells, uncovering hidden knowledge and unlocking vital secrets to aid their journey. With his sharp mind and unwavering loyalty, Adso proves to be an indispensable ally.

Glinda

Glinda is an ancient and legendary Master Forger, as old as the world itself. A Master Forger is a human chosen to wield one of the Seven Forgers’ Hammers—powerful relics passed down from humanity’s creators, the Forgers. These hammers are not only tools but symbols of immense responsibility, tied to the destiny of those who bear them.
Glinda becomes Aran’s guide and mentor, unveiling the profound mysteries and sacred craft of the Master Forgers. As she imparts her vast knowledge, she also observes Aran closely, scrutinizing his actions, decisions, and growth. Her ultimate test is to determine whether Aran has the strength, courage, and heart to fulfil his destiny and prove himself a true hero.

Queen Nerea

Following the death of her father, the King of the Empire, Nerea ascended to the throne as the new Queen. The people looked to her with hope, believing her reign would usher in an era of prosperity and greatness.
But little did they know what her rule would truly bring.
