[h2]The messengers of Okiara[/h2]


Ranger, Corsair, Mystic, Lahn

Babbling brook,
a moonlit crystal alligator is asleep,
the musical spirit Moyamo is floating in the air,
on the calm waters of the Okiara River the Selaines come to visit as they do every night.

The Selaines are
[color]the messengers of Okiara,
the most gentle and humble ancient spirit who promised to embrace all.[/color]

Their cautious footsteps draw the water spirits
who are still tossing and turning in their sleep.
From the shores of Lake Flondor, the banks of the Okiara River
and the calm waves of Grándiha...
the water spirits flock to the streams that run through the lands of Kamasylvia.

They whisper softly to the Selaines.

And the Selaines, with their ever-loving eyes,
listen to the spirits’ tales.
Sometimes the Selaines and their mysterious friends.
dance together on the windy waves.

[color]This is how the Selaines follow the will of Okiara.[/color]
Not only for the sleepless spirits,
but also, for the wanderers who got lost in the stream,
with the burden of their heart, in a bleak loneliness.

Although the flowing stream can bring them to anywhere in the world,
the Selaines choose to go deeper here.
So they can embrace all the unspeakable stories and the pain...

The arid hearts are soothed by the comfort of the Selaines,
and filled with excitement to face the world again.

As time goes by,
the comfort of the Selaines might pass into oblivion in their memorie, but they don’t mind.
Because the water spirits, who kept their eyes on them, will flow eternally and remember the Selaines.

[h2]Find out why the Turtle is trying to get the Rabbit's liver[/h2]
[expand]
[color][h3]❖ The Hare’s Liver ❖[/h3][/color]～Who is wiser, the turtle or the hare?～


Once upon a time, in an undersea kingdom, there was a dragon king who was very sick. In his search for a remedy for his illness, he found a remarkable physician who told him that consuming the liver of a hare would surely bring back his failing health.


The dragon king pondered, ”How can I get my hands on the liver of a hare that lives on land?”


With great courage, a turtle proclaimed, ”I will venture onto the land myself!” and set off on their journey.


Upon encountering a hare, the turtle promised them a prestigious position in the undersea kingdom. Fooled by the turtle’s persuasive words, the rabbit eagerly descended to the dragon palace.


Quickly realizing that they had been tricked, the rabbit stood before the dragon king and bravely declared,


"I’ve left my liver behind on dry land!"


The king and turtle foolishly agreed to bring the rabbit back up to the land once again.


Seizing the opportunity, the rabbit escaped into the distant forest, never to be seen again!

A flow of crimson flower to engulf the darkness.
[h2]Orzeca's Rose[/h2]
- Witch, Maegu, Woosa, Sorceress
[hr][/hr]

In an era where darkness threatens the world,
those who seek perfected magic gather to resist it…
They pursue the secrets of the fallen Ancient Kingdom of Orzeca,
and the witch Hexa Moa, who harbored the darkest darkness.

Amidst the incessant cries of ghosts trapped in their painful past,
slumbers of night are disturbed by bewilderment.
And now the desire for their atonement and rest
became a force that tirelessly pushes forward.

[color]“The fluttering crimson rose unravels the false illusion,
and becomes a genuine hope for all of this land.”[/color]

The Ahib, who disapproves of their existence,
would often attempt to blind their eyes and minds with illusions of fear and despair,
but they are unworthy opponents.

[color]A flow of crimson flower to engulf the darkness.[/color]

Those who seek the powerful magic of Orzeca's Rose,
will instead fall into crimson illusion,
unable to distinguish reality from dream.
