HISTORY remembers two a different world - a world where GODS and MEN mingle through life and death. The mightiest empires of mankind - the Amorite Babylonians, Pharaohs of Egypt, and Hittite warlords - carved eternal monuments recording supernatural might. A world where witches summon the ghosts of prophets, priests conjure violent serpents, and giants with the blood of demons lead men to war. Monument walls speak of heroes leading ancient nations to unfathomable feats. 
 
And room enough exists for new heroes to join them.
