The Eldgear Story:
Argenia, a land teeming with countless nations, is experiencing a tumultuous transition from the medieval age to a new, magically-infused era. The discovery of potent ancient technology within long-lost ruins ignites intense conflict. Following a devastating war, an uneasy peace prevails, but the threat of renewed hostilities remains ever-present.
