Althemia, a realm of ancient splendor, a home to a rich tapestry of life—predators of untamed ferocity, majestic fliers gracing the skies, and aquatic creatures that ruled the depths. This long-lost paradise was a land of magic and wonder, overflowing with trials and extraordinary moments that would test even the strongest of wills. Will you dare to challenge HEROS, a god who slumbers in peaceful stillness, awaiting his awakening? Or perhaps your path leads to the hidden caverns of Althemia, where untold dangers lurk in the shadows. Venture through its vast, enchanting landscapes, each more exotic than the last. Are you destined to be a true survivor in this ancient world?
