Before light. Before language. Before Man… there was only sound.
An eternal, primordial pulse that echoed through the Void like a heart that knew no end.
That beat was God.
And His name… was forgotten.
From that sound were born three supreme deities:
Oraltis, the Voice that creates.
Beatron, the Rhythm that moves.
Noctirya, the Silence that divides.
They danced in the Void, and through their divine motion the Nine Tones emerged:
sacred fragments of the Original Beat, destined to shape the world.
Around the Tones rose the Nine Kingdoms of Italya, each one born of a Tone, each with its own style, its own voice, its own soul.
But peace… was never eternal.
Over billions upon billions of years, new beings emerged:
the Archeotones, immortal entities born of dissonant echoes and corrupted harmonies.
They waged war against the gods, against the laws of sound,
and against the very voice of Man.
The Divine Wars ravaged the heavens,
and the notes cried out in blood.
In the end, it was a lesser god, known only to the people as the Godfather.
who sacrificed himself to end the age of chaos.
With his death, the Age of the Gods ended,
and the First Era of Mankind began.
But the true name of that forgotten age... was erased by the First King,
so that no mortal could ever awaken the
shadows buried within it.
Now, it is remembered only in legend as The Antecedent Era.
As for the name of the Godfather...
it was lost to time.
Those who once knew it... are no more.
Time moved on.
The first Kings rose: Frankie, Neffa, Articolo-31.
uniting Word and Beat to form the first civilization.
The laws of flow were born,
the alphabet of rhythm,
the grammar of the soul.
Now, we live in the Final Era,
with a tripartite Throne
and a Prophecy whispering of three voices that may change everything.
But to understand the future…
we must return to the beginning.
To Sirion.
To the city where words still breathe.
Where the First Beat… never stopped echoing.
