It is said that deep under the Arabian Sea, lies a series of islands in which a great Crusade for land took place in the years of 1182 through 1188. These islands came to be known as Ryllum, Kakasta, and Bella. Alakmed Mesuma, ruler of the desert city of Anteox located on the northern-most part of Kakasta, felt he needed to expand his empire and led a mighty Crusade against a small port town named Kergum. But little did he know, Kergum had one of the most fearful military forces known to man at the time. The small city fought back, crushing Anteox’s military forces to a mear 15,000 soldiers for what was a total of 40,000. Alakmed thought of a way to weaken the cities forces then attack head on. First, Alakmed would attack his enemy head-on and take them by surprise. Next, he would burn, kill and pillage any crops, livestock, and steal their technology for his own use. It was as if he wanted them gone forever

Kergum fell into utter chaos as Alakmed’s plan was set into action. He watched as the small cities warriors suffered from starvation and illness. His final step was to flank them from both sides eventually meeting up with his other patrol then scatter throughout the city and take anything that was left. Alakmed call his plan Cut, Clear, and Conquer. Over time, Anteox’s forces grew and Alakmed became a more popular ruler and well-trusted king.

In the year of 1172, Alakmed wanted to claim yet another small port city to use as a military checkpoint. He saw that his neighboring city, Tyress was at Civil War and figured it was the perfect opportunity. Anteox forces joined the Shasten (south) side of the war and fought the north which was the stronger of the two at the time. Soon, the war was over and the North had been defeated. With the South weak and weary, Alakmed decided it was time. He soon declared war on the South, a battle in which he only lost a handful of soldiers an easy victory for Alakmed. Nations all around soon began to worry and fear the man named Alakmed Mesuma.

Years later, 1175 in fact, Alakmed’s campaign was in full force. He had control over more than 20 cities and 7 port towns making him the biggest force possible. Alakmed soon decided to take the war to the furthest city. This way he could bring the forces to Anteox at the same time. He decided to take out the strongest nations first. These three cities named Cidel, Lithocris, and Loxlee all fought back nearly destroying Anteox once and for all. Cidel and Lithocris fell but Loxlee delivered the final blow and pushed Alakmed back to Anteox.

Bruised and broken from war, Loxlee suffered more than just a violent raid to the city. Their king, Martin was slain leaving Loxlee without an heir to the throne. Martin's oldest son would have been king, if he was not taken as a Prisoner of War. Alakmed swore that in seven years, he would be back to finish his Crusade and claim every city to himself. This, was the violent war known as The Red Crusade[/size]

It’s been seven years since that day and Loxlee has made a full recovery. Everyone has left the attack behind them and began their new lives.

Our hero, a young boy by the name of Kenneth Leonard has just celebrated his 16th birthday. Kent watched the dreadful attack on his city that day and watched his father, Martin die at his feet. For his birthday, Kent receives his first weapon, an actual Longbow. Thrilled by his new present, he travels to Darrel Woods with his best friend Rehia, a young adventurous girl with a knack for exploration.

The two soon find themselves lost and begin to wander. Minutes later, they stumble upon a lost church that was attacked during the raid. Curiously searching the building, Kent finds a charred piece of parchment. It stated that Alakmed would return with an even larger army to finish his campaign. Later on, Kent begins to hears voices coming from his village and the two rush back home leaving Kent’s arrows behind.

The two stop at the forest edge and overhear a Cidelin Messenger speaking about new leadership for Loxlee. The man says that whoever is the son of Martin shall be king in other words, Adam. The messenger soon finds that Adam was taken and appoints Kent as the new King. 16 years is old enough to rule. He also stated that Cidel would lend Loxlee their entire army is they agree to fight along side them and finish Alakmed’s crusade for good. They agree as much as Kent’s mother hates the idea. Kent will set out for Cidel first thing in the morning, according to his mother…

Later that night, Kent and Rehia sneak out to Darrel forest again to find more evidence of the raid seven years ago. Kent leaves a note that he has already left for Cidel in search of training on his kitchen table for his mother to see. The two sneak out of their quiet town without saying goodbye. This will be their greatest journey ever...

Soon to be replaced with an even better map! More detailed.

This is Lake Bellows located directly north of Darrel Forest. Very good fishing spot!

This is the remains of the Loxleen Church attacked during the raid. Kent and Rehia investigate here where they find a "Will" that tell them that Alakmed will return. He said so himself...

This is Balian's camp after finding Kenneth. Kenneth and Rehia both sleep while Balian packs for their trip to Cidel. The man that is awake is not Balian's Sprite, he is just a back-up untill I can find a spriter.

This is a map I made of the Rallus Iles. As you can see Loxlee is on the island of Rylumm and Anteox is on the desert wasteland of Chasata. Took me only about 3 hours to make this. Few errors but those will be fixed soon!
