The elves have ruled their vast Empire for centuries, thanks to both their well-trained Legions and their complete control of the Aether — the mystical substance that fuels their magic.

It is an army able to draw on magic of its own, an army allied with dragons, an army marching under the banner of a human named Drakis.
