Yen-Lu was vast, bigger than any continent on Tron, governed not by kings or emperors, but by hegmons.
These hegmons were the nine great sects and clans that held dominion through martial and arcane powers rather than royal decree.
Each of these great sects and clans commanded their own territories, armies, and trade routes, their influence reaching deeper than any central authority. The rulers of these factions were mighty Mana Core Magi.
The nine great sects and clans united under the banner of the Arcane Alliance. This was an orthodox alliance formed to unite the righteous Magi of Yen-Lu, not just to prevent all-out war amongst them, but also to stand united against the unorthodox faction.
The Arakuro Clan was one of the nine great sects and clans.
A few weeks ago, one of the sons of this great clan, Tensei Arakuro, had visited Mount Hoshigane on a leisurely trip. The man wanted to visit this region after spending a long time in seclusion.
