The Setting of the Chronicle

The World of Arcasia

The world of Arcasia — a besieged gothic city beneath a pale blue sun, a towering glowing symbol rising above the streets, and crowds gathered among burning ruins

Arcasia is a world shaped by oppression, rebellion, and the struggle for freedom. For generations, the Arca (a human race), lived under the rule of the Ais (a powerful and merciless race of demorcs) who conquered their lands and enslaved their people. The Arca were stripped of their freedom, and were forced to work in mining pits to gather minerals. But even under this long period of oppression, the desire for freedom always existed.

Eventually, the Arca decided to reject slavery and subjugation. They took up arms against their masters and began a rebellion that would grow into a war for the fate of Arcasia itself. Outnumbered and facing an enemy that had ruled them for generations, humanity now has to fight not only for victory, but for the right to exist as a free people.

This is where the story of Arcasia begins. A world of war and sacrifice. Of despair and hope. Of hatred, courage, loss, and triumph. And through its music, Arcasia becomes a place where these emotions can be experienced.
