MYTHOLOGY:

THE EIGHT HEROES:
One millennium ago, an ancient evil called Dracura attempted to take over the world and attempt a ritual to become immune to the traditional weaknesses of a vampire. Eleven heroes from the eleven continents stood up against him and, at the cost of their own lives, defeated them. Their home villages have been renamed to their names, and their shrines are there. Each hero had their own legendary weapon. As of late 2016, eleven continents are known to exist; prior to the events of Lunar Shadow Memories, only Anegio, Quoris and Zephyria were unknown (Zephyria wasn't classified as a continent at the time, Quoris was underwater and Anegio was hidden).
