Your journey has taken you to the ancient planet of Valhalla, in a distant sector of the galaxy. Valhalla is a world that once was serene and untroubled by strife. A place of varied landscapes, it features lush forests and commanding mountain ranges, stark deserts and boundless oceans that hold the secrets of millennia. In a universe overcome by unrest, Valhalla seemed a sanctuary of peace. But that was before an asset of unimaginable value was discovered the wellsprings.

Like the most glittering treasure of gold or gems, these magical fountains were coveted. The wellsprings bestowed mighty powers on whomever partook of their crystal-clear waters. The first mysterious wellspring was discovered by Thormun, a Kyrie native to Valhalla. Thormun drank the waters of that first wellspring and found himself becoming stronger in body and mind. His wings grew as massive as those of a condor, he gained mystical clairvoyant powers, and he remained youthful even as time passed. Yet Thormun soon realized that in order to retain these powers, he had to continue to drink of the wellspring often. And as he returned again and again, the frightening visions set in.

Sometimes gifts of great value ironically come with a high price, and so it was with the wellsprings. For Thormun and the other Kyrie who drank of them were tortured with horrifying visions of strange warring armies on Valhalla. Thormun saw battles involving warriors and creatures not only from other worlds, but from other eras. Wanting no part of what he saw, Thormun relinquished his wellspring's power. But the evil Kyrie Utgar was only emboldened by the might of the wellsprings and undeterred by their visions. As the denizens of Valhalla came to know those with the Wellspring's power as Valkyrie, an evolved species of terrible strength, Utgar's nefarious ambition grew. His own tribe was not enough; he craved to rule alone over all of Valhalla, obliterating the other Kyrie tribes as necessary. This relentless thirst for absolute power pulled all of the Valkyrie into a war that spread across every region of the planet.

As this apocalyptic war on Valhalla raged and its scale expanded, the Valkyrie used the power of the wellsprings as astral portals to travel across time and space, enabling them to gather warriors from different worlds and epochs, bringing them together on Valhalla to wage war. Today an eternal war rages across Valhalla. It is a bloody contest between the galaxy’s mightiest warriors, monsters, heroes, and villains, collected from all time and space, to decide the ultimate fate of our universe.
