The Legend of Dragon Nest
Explore the rich lore and epic saga of the Dragon Nest world, from its ancient beginnings to the current conflicts that shape the realm.
The World of Lagendia
Long ago, the goddess Althea created the world of Lagendia, a realm of beauty and magic. She blessed the land with six dragons, each representing a fundamental element of creation. For millennia, the dragons maintained balance and harmony throughout the world.
However, the Black Dragon, corrupted by darkness and chaos, rebelled against the goddess and sought to claim Lagendia for himself. This betrayal sparked the Dragon War, a devastating conflict that nearly destroyed the world. Althea sacrificed herself to seal away the Black Dragon, using her divine power to create the Dragon Gems that would maintain the seal.
Now, centuries later, the seal is weakening. Dark forces gather, seeking the Dragon Gems to release the Black Dragon once more. Heroes from across Lagendia must rise to face this threat and prevent the world from falling into eternal darkness.
The Creation
The goddess Althea created the world of Lagendia, breathing life into the land, seas, and skies. She formed six elemental dragons to maintain balance: the Gold Dragon of Light, the Silver Dragon of Wind, the Blue Dragon of Water, the Green Dragon of Earth, the Red Dragon of Fire, and the Black Dragon of Darkness.
Each dragon was given dominion over their respective element and tasked with guarding a portion of the world. Together, they maintained harmony and fostered the growth of various races that would come to inhabit Lagendia.
The Dragon War
The Black Dragon, consumed by jealousy and ambition, turned against his siblings and the goddess. He sought to claim all of Lagendia for himself, unleashing chaos and destruction across the realm. The other dragons fought against their corrupted brother, but his power had grown immense.
The war raged for a hundred years, devastating the land and nearly extinguishing all life. Countless civilizations were lost, and the world teetered on the brink of annihilation.
Althea's Sacrifice
Seeing no other way to end the conflict and save her creation, the goddess Althea made the ultimate sacrifice. She used her divine essence to create six Dragon Gems, each containing a portion of her power. With these gems, she sealed away the Black Dragon in the depths of the Shadow Abyss.
The remaining dragons, weakened by the war, retreated to their respective realms to recover. Althea's physical form faded, but her spirit remained, watching over Lagendia from the celestial realm.
Rise of the Six Heroes
As centuries passed, the memory of the Dragon War faded into legend. The Dragon Gems were entrusted to six heroes, chosen for their exceptional courage and virtue. These heroes founded the Six Orders, organizations dedicated to protecting the gems and maintaining peace in Lagendia.
The Six Orders established the great city of Saint Haven as a symbol of unity and cooperation among the races. For a time, Lagendia enjoyed an era of prosperity and advancement.
The Prophet's Vision
A prophet named Karacule received a disturbing vision: the seal containing the Black Dragon was weakening. She warned the Six Orders that dark forces were gathering, seeking to collect the Dragon Gems and release the ancient evil.
Her warnings were initially dismissed, but strange occurrences soon confirmed her prophecy. Monsters began appearing in greater numbers, and mysterious cultists were sighted near ancient ruins.
The Call for Heroes
With the threat of the Black Dragon's return looming, the Six Orders have issued a call for heroes. Adventurers from across Lagendia journey to Saint Haven, eager to prove their worth and join the fight against the encroaching darkness.
As the Dragon Gems are targeted by sinister forces, new champions must rise to protect them. The fate of Lagendia hangs in the balance, and only the bravest heroes can prevent the world from falling into eternal shadow.
