Achysia

The flame that shines the brightest, burns the quickest. It was a proverb that no one ever thought could be applied to Achysia. From the mists of the Age of Abhorrence, Achysia was the first mortal realm to rise again and to bring back light into the world darkened by the Calamity and the Blight, led by the Mage-Emperor, one of the most powerful mortal beings to have ever existed. For centuries without end, Achysia continued to exist and to prosper under the rule of its master while the other Silver Realms came and went, rose and fall. Achysia was a place of civilization and learning, under the light of the Eternal Flame that it protected. But much like the Eternal Serpent that it also used as its symbol, Achysia was also bound to the eternal cycle of growth, decay, and then fall. Only that in its case, the decay was hidden, slowly corrupting it from within as one of the holiest realms fell prey to the dark arts, before its Mage-Emperor attempted to conquer all of the Silver Realms, only to be defeated by the Holy Council and its Champions of Light.
