They would have you believe our planet to be a lonely starship, hurtling through the void of space, barren of magic and in need of a stern hand upon the rudder. Close your mind to their deception.

It was a time of legend, when heroes walked Creation and wielded the very power of the gods.

This is the story of that time. THIS IS THE STORY OF THE EXALTED.
