As he ventures through the untamed lands, Michael encounters individuals from various races and walks of life. Their paths intersect with his, and a shared purpose unites their hearts. These chance encounters blossom into friendships forged in the crucible of adversity.
The first companion to join Michael on his journey is Elysia, a wise and powerful elf who possesses unparalleled knowledge of the mystical arts. Her ethereal presence and unwavering loyalty make her an invaluable ally. With her keen insights and ability to manipulate the forces of nature, Elysia becomes a pillar of strength in Michael's battle against the Sovereign.

His unwavering determination and fierce loyalty to his comrades make him an invaluable asset to their cause.
Joined by these steadfast companions, Michael's company grows in strength and purpose. They share in each other's victories and bear the weight of their losses together.
