Seinaru no Kuni/History/Holy War I

Excluding the nation's founding, the Holy War serves as the first major crisis that the fledgling Kingdom was forced to endure. It nearly brought the developing civilization to it's knees - but in the end, the surprise union of the Knights and Priestesses of the Seinaru proved too great for the vile Kokonerasu to defeat.

Holy War I
Over the next generation, the Seinaru no Kuni proved to be a prosperous endeavor. The monks, during this time, were re-branded and advertised as Knights. It wasn't long before the leader, Holy Knight Roland had grown to infamy, inspiring the youth to follow after his foot steps.. With the glamorous title came greater attention, and of course drove of eager youngsters training - all in hopes of reaching the highest rank of Knighthood - Paladin. Sadly, nothing good ever quite lasted forever. Also enticed by the prospect of settling in the Continent of Chusei, an opposing force seemed to be arising. However, these like-minded Hell-raisers had come in greater numbers, given that they were the union between two separate factions.

This force was soon known to all as the Kokonerasu - a name that would forever become synonymous with the darkness and depravity of the Human Realm. Rather than relying solely on the prowess of powerful, close-ranged warriors, the Kokonerasu had intelligently built up ranks of powerful Templars in conjunction with supporting Necromancers such as Summoners, and Curse Specialists. Couple organization with discovery of a powerful, energy-sensitive wood, and the odds were quickly stacked up  against the fledgling, would-be Holy Capital of the world.

Fortunately, where ever there was dark, the light was soon to follow. Near the climax of the first great Holy War, a new mysterious group of 'Saints' arrived to provide aid. Among them, the leader - Lady Isidore - began her legend, proving powerful enough to play a pivotal role in driving back the Dark entities and fiendish villains. Working in tandem first-hand with the Legendary High-Knight Roland, the two went on to reign terror onto all vile creatures of the dark. In the end, while the casualties were great, the conflict settles in the Seinaru's favor, and thus begins the joint-union between the Knights and Priestesses, with Roland and Isidore serving as the first joint King/Queen.
