Set in a in a fantasy world shared by many races, full of magic, mysteries and dungeons. Every few generations a Tyrant will invariably appear, posessing unnatural power and charisma and cause havoc until defeated by courageous heroes. More than a hundred years have passed since the defeat of Tyrant Teldarion, ruthless leader of the Elves, and some people start worrying about the possibility of a new Tyrant appearing.
Living in a small town, Gaius believes he was supposed to have had a mediocre life, but the presence of a strange building that could not possibly have been imagined by someone of his world and a series of almost miraculous circumstances puts him on the path to an extraordinary life and extraordinary knowledge.
