In a far away realm, far from Earth, was a world called Iürus. Cold winds and ice ruled where the sun did not touch. When the golden rays of sunlight embraced the world the frozen ice melted away to reveal the lush blue lands. Smalls trees covered the blue hills, abundantly covered with fruits. Animals that inhabited Iürus were strange creatures compared to other worlds. Large reptiles called drükken owned the skies with their four large wings and six legs that accompanied their two heads. Colossal mammoth-like mammals called cäih roamed the surface with their wooly skin and eight tusks. And in the frigid ocean ruled the seven headed sea serpents.

Perhaps for other races this planet would seem inhospitable, however for the Qlek'urk it was the perfect place. At night when part of Iürus was stolen away from the mercy of the sun, the Qlek'urk tucked themselves inside their home made of intricately carved stone. The Qlek'urk was a race whose white skin blended with the snow, black eyes that stood out like oval onyx and white hair that made them look like innocent creatures, however their sharp teeth shattered the illusion. They were an intelligent race with hierarchy where the king and queen ruled the Qlek'urk. They erected a large palace that was made entirely of a rare stone they called shamanite. However when the palace was being constructed a portal was opened beneath the palace. No one knew what it was at first, however a brave warrior named Rasticâ entered first before being followed by his warrior-like wife. Many insisted for her to wait but neither returned from the portal. The palace was sealed off and prohibited, before another palace was created from stone.

The portal becoming a forgotten memory...

At least until a prince passed through a few hours before his fated death...
