The world of Dragonia was a place of breathtaking wonder and terrifying danger. In a land once separated by dimensions, the Heumane and the Magii now coexisted, though not always in peace. Cities and towns were protected by shimmering magical domes, a constant reminder of the Mana Beasts that now roamed the wild, a legacy of the destructive 2nd Magii War.
In the quiet, unassuming town of Hollow on the Maen Continent, a small community thrived under its own protective dome, a beacon of simple life amidst a world of magic and monsters.
It was here, in this small town, that the story of Xu Mei began. It wasn't a grand, heroic beginning, but one born from tragedy. Her parents, a young couple full of hope and dreams, were caught in a sudden, violent thunderstorm on their way to the hospital. A single bolt of lightning, a freak accident in a world of controlled magic, struck their carriage. Her father was killed instantly, but her mother, with a last surge of strength that defied all logic, held on just long enough to bring Xu Mei into the world. In her final moments, she whispered a name, a name that meant "brilliance," and then her light faded.
