It is said that the new king of Nyrondria always rises from the ashes of anarchy. When the kingdom lies in ruins, he or she rises from among us and leads the people of the land to a better life.

This is true to Cassius De’Nyre, a servant boy who grew up in the court of a vicious, wicked lord. The lord always boasted he was a direct descendant of the kings and queens of old. He brutally murdered Cassius’ father when the boy was a mere infant. He later savagely beat and killed Cassius’ mother before his very eyes. Being only twelve at the time, Cassius had to flee. Fortune smiled upon him and he was taken in by a kindly old couple who looked after him like their own. It was through them that he learned that his last name was derived from Nyrond and he was, in fact, the one and only rightful heir to the throne.

As he grew up he honed his skills, learning history, diplomacy and swordplay until he was skilled enough to challenge the evil lord and defeat him in combat. His decendants ruled Nyrondria since then and were almost always kind and benevolent.
