Tales of Tyria

In the beginning there was only emptiness and darkness…

Then the Goddess Tyria created the land and all living creatures...

People lived in peace, enjoying their lives, thankful for the Goddess' gift of creation...

Satisfied with her work, but very tired, the Goddess felt it was time for her to retract and rest…

Concerned for the safety of her beloved people and nature, she split her soul into 7 crystals… The Light Crysts, resting in the sacred temples of the world to this day, ready to be used to protect all life from darkness…

So the Goddess Tyria was sleeping quietly for a long time...

But then... one day, her slumber turned into a nightmare since the portals of darkness had been opened. Monstrous creatures overran the world, spreading chaos and death, leaving the innocent people of Tyria in desperation and fear.

But there's still hope...

When the hero of light appears to seek the 7 Light Crysts, using their remaining divine power to open the portal to the celestial realm…

…to restore the Goddess' peace and to bring back light to the lands of Tyria.
