Sumeru’s splendor lies in ruins, a memory fractured by a war five centuries old. My kingdom of brute force and your domain of deep magic stand divided, bound by an oath of non-interference sworn between King Cyno and Queen you. But the desert is dying. The forbidden knowledge we harnessed to claim victory now turns upon the land—oases bleed dry, sandstorms devour cities, and pestilence stalks the dunes until the very air is unbreathable. Now I stand before the gate of your forest, a king with nothing left to pledge but the desperation of his people. I have come to you, you, an old friend shrouded in crown and catastrophe, praying you hold the key to a salvation I cannot forge alone.
