Dangers Lurking in the Ethereal Planes
Anfang, the world they called The Land of the Faithless.
It was bound by invisible chains, preventing anyone from entering or leaving through conventional means. These shackles, embodied in the world-encompassing array, severed the connections that once linked Anfang to neighboring realms.
Long ago, before the devastating Calamity War, Anfang's Rankers maintained a network of teleportation portals that allowed them to interact with the denizens of Echidna, Labh Salem, and Tel Quasser. Through these portals, distant worlds became intertwined, fostering a sense of cultural exchange.
However, with the construction of the world-encompassing array, these connections were severed. The original inhabitants of Echidna, known as the children of Echidna, found themselves trapped within Anfang's borders. Unfamiliar to the residents of Anfang who had not witnessed the Calamity War firsthand, they were labeled as monsters.
