The First War
The First War
The first war was one of the most deadly conflicts in Zutara’s history, being so massive and destructive that it left the once-proud Kingdom of Arcadia in ruins. The first war was fought between the Seraphim and Adonis the Fell Dragon's forces. Mordu renamed himself Adonis to separate himself from his old Kingdom, and brought many noble dragon houses into rebellion as well as summoning a demon army from the abyss to help him in his war. On the other side were the 9 Seraphim who were loyal to Arcadia as well as the dragon houses that stood with them and the majority of humans.
However, none can speak of the first war for very long without mentioning the champion of the first war, Ryu the Hero King. Ryu was born in a small remote village, and even at a young age showed huge magickal potential as well as possessing exceptional skills with every weapon. It was almost like he wasn’t human, which was partially true, because he was a direct incarnation of the seraphim Vafla himself! At age 18 Ryu joined the war effort which was currently stuck in a stand-still between Arcadia and Adonis' forces. With his powerful abilities and strategic might, Ryu was able to push back Adonis' forces all the way back to their capital of Naughtmare, leading to Adonis' defeat.
On the way, Ryu was able to obtain the legendary sword Ars Solaris, which was spawned when the dragon queen Nargi was killed by Adonis. When a seraphim dies, they always leave behind one or more special weapons called “Dragon Fangs” which are forged from the leftover energy from their powerful soul that has taken physical form. Ryu then fought a climactic battle against the evil Adonis, killing him for good. However, with Adonis' last breath he cursed the land of Zutara by placing a spiritual target of sorts on the planet in order to draw forth the other archons, beings of pure malice created directly from Elzakalas. Ryu then settled down, marrying an unknown woman of mysterious origin. Ryu was an old man by the time the next main conflict started, and Ryu died knowing that the world would always need a hero to save it from its darkness as the Second War began…
