The light and the Dark. A bitter struggle for dominion between two disparate gods was enough to divide the world of “Agarest” and threaten the very existence of every species inhabiting the world. Afraid that their conflict would annihilate the very world they desired, the gods reached a compromise in which mortal agents representing each side of the conflict would act in their stead so that the power of the opposing gods wouldn’t overwhelm the affairs of the world.
With the accord between the gods in place, it seemed as if the embattled world of Agarest had finally entered an era of peace. However, the armies of darkness slowly gained power and began an assault on the forces of light… It is at the “Sacred Mountains”, the boundary created by the gods to separate the two sides that this story begins.
For it is here that Sieghart encounters a young girl surrounded by creatures from the armies of darkness whilst on a mission for the forces of light. Whilst fighting off the girl’s assailants, Sieghart was mortally wounded. He was saved in turn by the mysterious young girl; however, her powers were somehow transferred to him in the process. With this unexpected twist of fate, Sieghart embraces his new role in the conflict and throws himself headlong into the war.
