The world of Sourora was once a paradise like no other. Its flourishing forests and shimmering waters were vast and numerous. Towns and cities grew and projected through all of the land, and four mighty kingdoms formed. The Tireren to the north, the Eaunari to the south, the Anarden to the east, and the Kuiri to the west all formed as kingdoms and held their power in their domains. Yet a war broke out between the great four, and the land was laid to waste. The trees burned, and the waters were soiled. Villages burned, and people suffered. With that came the great purge in which bandits ruled the land. The ground rotted, and all that was left was the dust of fires. This was Paradise’ fall.
In the chaotic times that followed this sudden and great fall, people demanded for the peace of the four warring nations. However, even after a shaky peace was established, the land was already too far gone. Nothing could be salvaged from the destruction that had flowed forth. Cities struggled to regain their footing and remained small and ragged for the most part. Citadels were constructed from the remains of shattered castles. People began to move about through the sands that were once the great forests searching for a new land to call their own, and yet none have found any.
In this post apocalyptic world, a group of people come together to try and restore the world to its former self. Will they succeed? No one knows for certain.

Born in the first years after the Great War, Zane grew up in the city of Anin as it struggled to regain its former glory before the war. Raised in the poverty of commoners who could not easily recuperate from the war, from a young age, Zane fought for survival in the dog eat dog city. Being unable to support the wife he loved and the child he had had with her, Zane's father abandoned the family and disappeared from Anin. Becoming resentful of his father, Zane adored his mother. Trying to support the family from the age of seven, Zane began to become an adept thief. One day being caught, Zane was beaten in the streets by a group of men. They left him bleeding and nearly dead. However, thanks to an unknown savior, Zane was healed and woke up later in his mother's care. Beginning to grow even more hateful, Zane trained and began to become stronger and stronger. At the age of thirteen, Zane witnessed his family's slaughter as the soldiers stationed in Anin tried to find the sand pirates that had supposedly been hiding in the town. Going underground, Zane later found the sand pirates that the city had been protecting and joined them. He has been on a sand pirate ship ever since.

Areas of Interest Within Sourora:
Within Tireren
- Anin- the capital city; this city was once known as the great valley city for it flourished between two giant mountains. However, after the war, it was crippled. The castle of the royal family was destroyed completely by an attack by the Eaunari. However, it was rebuilt in recent years.
- The Under- a rogue city south of Anin where bandits and sand pirates are in the norm. It was once a respectable town named Alora, but due to the nature of the inhabitants, it was later named The Under. It is also the sight of the largest black market schemes in the world.
- Tiala- a small village far from the capital. The village is more of a farming community trying to water the sands and produce enough food to live. It is on the brink of death at this point.
Within Eaunari:
- Miora- the capital city; once known as the great sea city, Miora sits directly on the shores of the Miora Sea. Named because of the sea itself, Miora was once a great trading city that used the water ways to increase profit. Recently, the waters have receded, and due to the war, the city itself was nearly burned to the ground.
- Shiozu library- a library created by several sorcerers; before the war, it was open to any who wished to learn. However, after the war finished, the sorcerers locked the library away, and several guards were erected to only allow those pure of heart access to the library.
- Port Elo- it was once a major port in Eaunari, however, the water receded and left the port struggling to survive.
Within Anarden
- Zolorous- the captial city; still managing to stay somewhat prosperous even after the war, Zolorous sits on the banks of the Milodic River with the great castle sitting farthest into the water.
- Nivar- a city of rogues and outcasts; it is somewhat like The Under, but it remains somewhat more peaceful.
- Seli- a valley west of Zolorous that dips so far downwards, that one has to be careful in walking downwards.
Within Kuiri
- Irisis- the capital city;l it has had its fair share of pillaging in the last years. The city has been ransacked and destroyed that there has been a twenty foot think wall built around the city.
- Loren- the jail city; because Kuiri is the only kingdom where it has been established, Loren has become the jail city of all the kingdoms.
