Ancient Armes Dynasty's Ruins
A mighty dynastic nation which held dominion over the modern-day nations of Falena, New Armes and Nagarea hundreds of years before the arrival of the mysterious Sindar race.
Utilising the power of the Sun Rune, the dynasty was extremely prosperous beyond compare. Until one fateful day when the Armes King suddenly and inexplicably went insane.
His madness caused the Sun Rune to go berserk, destroying everything in its path. The magnificent Armes Dynasty, the pinnacle of civilization, was gone in an instant. In its place lay only dry and barren wilderness, the Southern Continent was decimated. However, the power of the Sun Rune, embodying nourishment as well as destruction, took the wasteland and restored it as a fertile green land.
It is said that the capital of the Ancient Armes Dynasty was located near Amdort Mountain, in central Falena. The Big Hole, located nearby, leads to this city.
Although the people of the modern-day New Armes Kingdom claim to be descendants of the Ancient Armes Dynasty, there is no proof that they have any racial or cultural relationship to the dynasty whatsoever.
Jeane and Eresh both seem to have some connection to the Ancient Armes Dynasty, but in what fashion is currently unknown. The creature Shepcesska is rumoured to have once been the King of this dynasty.
