Once upon a time,
the oldest kouteiryuu was still an egg.

At that time, the lands were being invaded by an ever-increasing number of magic beasts.
Ferocious beasts roamed the forests, monstrous fish settled into rivers and streams, and the people grew desperate.
Food supplies were decreasing as the days dragged on and as the hordes grew larger, villages began disappearing one by one.

Then, a young man stood up.

The village where he’d been born and raised was razed by the monsters and his family was slaughtered, but he fought on.
He fought not for any cause, but simply to live another day.

Alone and with no one to protect him but himself, the young man wielded his sword and killed the demonic beasts.
One day, he became powerful enough to challenge the magic beasts that had attacked his village, but he was still only fighting for his life.

On that day, a sea of beasts surrounded the young man.
No matter how many he cut down, the number of magic beasts did not decrease.
Even this young man, strong as he was, started panting and he felt as though his sword was getting heavier by the second.

And then: Light.
It danced like the wind, pierced like the rain, and engulfed the beasts like flames.
The young man fought alongside the light without knowing why it had come.
They helped each other, complemented each other’s moves, grew stronger, and overwhelmed the magic beasts.

The light was a young woman.
Beautiful and loved by the fairies, the young woman manipulated magic.

The young man thanked the young woman, and the young woman welcomed the young man.

The young woman, too, had been pursued by magic beasts and forced into solitude.
She found a light that was on the verge of extinction and she jumped on it with no regard for herself.
What would’ve been difficult to do alone was no longer such a hardship when she and the young man joined forces.

Together, they gained strength, found comfort, and finally had aspirations.
Together, they remembered the warmth in their hearts and found the will to protect it.

Eventually, the pair set out to defeat the magic beasts once and for all.
They vowed to defeat them in order to protect each other.

The two of them stood up to the Demon Lord and brought peace to the world.
The young man who wielded his sword and defeated the Demon Lord was called the Hero.
The young woman who helped him with the power of the fairies was called the Sorceress.

This was a story from long ago, from a time before countries existed on the continent.
