According to inscriptions found in ruins across Europa, by circa 30 BC, the Darcsens are said to have ravaged much of Europa, wielding the dark arts to harness the destructive potential of ragnite in their heedless power struggles. Suddenly, an immigrant population known as the Valkyrur emerged from the north, bearing a "divine power" in the form of lances and shields bathed in blue light. Using those to halt the Darcsen rampage, they united Europa and brought peace to the continent.
