Worlds, realms, universes. There was a universe, with different realms within it. Each realm with its own Gods, each God with its own world. There was a time when the universe consisted lots of different realm, whereas the realm with lots of different worlds. But all is not well, as a dimensional rift soon appeared, tearing the very fabric of reality itself and causing a powerful distortion within the universe. Nobody knows the true origins of the distortion field. What is known is that many realms have perished during the whole process…. save for one. The realm that had survived the ensuing cosmic catastrophe is known as the realm of Askarlor. And within that realm, lies only one world. And that is our world. The world of Gweralle.

On the Volcanic Lands, lies the Black Citadel, also known as the "Tower Of Madness". Whatever living creature goes near it will be driven to insanity. Where did the Citadel appear from? Nobody knows. It is said that the day when the world of Gweralle was created, was the day the Citadel was born. But the true mystery of the Black Citadel isn't about -when- or -where-, but -What- is living inside it. Going near it is already a bad idea, but what about -Living- inside it?
