In a medieval land, eight travelers stumbled upon a source of unfathomable power.
Fearing that they would become tyrants, the Kineticist Arik fled, and made his home in a faraway land.
Three hundred years later, his past has come back to haunt him. The time has come for him to confront his fellow wizards, if their army doesn't get him first.
