On the continent of Pallas, at the end of the Time of Darkness, a prophecy appeared on the Cage of Tears the gate sealing the dark god Silvak in another dimension. The prophecy told of the events leading to when Silvak would be free again. It has been 500 years since the gate was sealed, and slowly the prophecy is coming to pass. The War of Galvos, the bloodiest war in the history of Pallas rages across the lands. The Dragon King Galvos recruits his forces from the fallen kingdoms he conquers with promises of peace and unity. However, as his power grows something sinister lies in the shadows. On a mystic island hidden from the eyes of men, the goddess, Auraka, charges Sabra Dragonrider the princess of the Silvar to seek out three sacred blades. Along her journey, Sabra is joined by Garrion, a troubled warrior, Taurus, a daring minotaur, Kyric, a noble lord, and Mun, a kind-hearted giant. Meanwhile, within the ranks of the Dragon King's armies, Heartsblood Dragonsire, the half-dragon wizard, strives to prove his worth as the son of one of the great dragons. And Jade Majir, a former centurion, seeks to bring peace and order the lands under the control of Galvos. When Jade and Heartsblood are brought together to seek out the swords for Galvos, the very things that brought them into the service of the Dragon King will be tested. Sabra and her small band clash against Jade and Heartsblood to win all three blades. This story creates a legend, known after as The Rise of the Dragon King.
