Tales of a Cordbetan: Introduction

The War for Power erupted when the Cordbetans and Ordbetans joined forces with the monsters against the Hics, Lacertus, Nosh, and Krumberland men in a bid to seize control over the High World and bring order to the realm. The Cordbetan king sought his brother’s allegiance to secure complete domination over their territories.

The War for the Potion began with Cordbeta and Ordbeta engaging in tournaments featuring kings and warriors, with the victors receiving the most potent potions crafted by the magicians as a reward for their freedom. Despite Ordbeta’s triumph, the Cordbetan king, refusing to accept defeat, slew Ordbeta’s greatest warrior. This act ignited a war between the two kingdoms, culminating in Cordbeta’s victory at the battle of Fallen Sand, granting them access to the superior potions. The King, having consumed the Forever potion, gained the power to create an endless army of men. With time as his only constraint, he set his sights on conquering the world. Instead of honouring his agreement to free the magicians, the King ordered their execution. However, one magician managed to escape through the wall, disguising himself as a guard. Though wounded, he reached his homeland and entrusted his son with the potion recipes, imploring him to wait until he was older and wiser before presenting them to the King. Until then, the magician’s son was to keep the recipes hidden, lest he be compelled to return them to the King of Cordbeta due to their alliance. Ordbeta, in desperate need of allies, turned to the Lorem special soldiers for assistance in their quest to gather the ingredients once more and challenge the Cordbetan king’s growing power.
