Outline of Story (Main Company)

-Darius is a human soldier of the Terran Army, assigned to guard cargo aboard The Valor meant to be delivered to Eldunian Council.

-The Valor departed from Hilinu towards Barad Angrol, was intercepted by two pirate ships captained by an Eldunian, Eihlim, the Crimson Wing.

-The Valor was successfully boarded and the cargo was divided among the two pirate ships. Any survivors from the raid were put on the captain's ship's Hold.

--The two ships were headed to Hadma in Darkale to fence the cargo. For the next few days, Eihlim brings food to the prisoners and converses with Darius about morality.

Halfway to Hadma in the Great Lake, the pirates were ambushed by a military Terran fleet, their main objective to sink the pirate ships and leave no survivors.

-As the two ships were sinking, Eihlim runs to the Hold to free the prisoners of The Valor. As they were surfacing from below deck, a wave of fire consumes most of the upper deck, killing most of the crew and the prisoners. Darius and Eihlim surive as they jumped off the side of the ship as soon as they realized the magnitude of the wave.

-They both swim to the crow's nest that survived the blast and become adrift for several days. They eventually land on the southern coast of Valy, a small town directly south of Ilierel.
