Asparoukh has been receiving strange visions in his meditative states. He sees his homeworld burning at the hands of the Hazars. Determined to gain vengeance for the acts upon his people, Asparoukh gathered the Dragon Orbs and wished to be taken back to his home in order to fight off Odrin and his forces and restore Kouberian rule in Volgondia. The Kouberian prince has taken a select group of fighters with him to the war torn planet, uncertain of what he will find.

Chapter 1: Of Hazars and Visions
After a long day, Asparoukh returned to his apartment and immediately collapsed into a deep sleep. However, this sleep was not undisturbed, for in his slumber Asparoukh was disturbed by a vision. He was at the dojo of his master, who warned him of the fate of the Kouberian people. As if this wasn't enough, when Asparoukh awoke from this dream, he was faces with a formidable and familiar foe.
Hazars. The hideous, almost insectoid creatures that were invading Asparoukh's homeworld, and now they were here on Eden. With less than a moment to react, Asparoukh managed to dispatch the first assassin, and swiftly the second and third followed suit. The Kouberian Prince stood in wonderment about how his assailants managed to come to Eden, but he was not the only one.
Within moments, 3 new warriors approached the scene. Firstly, the Juin Assassin and Mercenary, Midnight. Soon after, the Saiyan woman Talia, and the old man Barnibus Quentin were with the Kouberian at his home. After consulting Asparoukh on the matter, the group decided on their inevitable plan. Get reinforcements, and move out. It was then that Midnight revealed himself to the others, offering his hired hand on this mission.
It was onto the lookout. Eden's warriors would need to be gathered.
Chapter 2: The Warriors of Eden Gather
Asparoukh made his way with the other's to the Guardians Lookout, where he waited for the forces of Eden to accumulate. His wait wasn't a long one, either, as almost immediately the warriors Carniku, Xarius, Hakuto and Gareeku appeared on the scene. Also, just as the Guardian, Karius, came to the meeting, the warrior Lycan joined the group, along with the new TEMPLAR recruit, Jakole.
It wasn't long before numerous plans were thrown into the open. Some obvious, and some much more subtle, but soon one was decided upon. Barnibus Quentin, the old magician, would create a Portal to the dimension of Volgondia, and then they would use Odrin's Orb to return. And so, the warriors headed off to collect the materials needed, and within the day the portal was created.
However, during this time, the warriors were granted with a chance to meet a former friend. The Knight of the Kiaos, Musashi, appeared before them to warn of the dangers to Eden, as well as to Volgondia. This meeting inspired the noble decision, as when Lycan and Hakuto called the Eternal Dragon at the lookout, Lycan used his wish to resurrect the warrior Musashi.
After this shocking reunion, the warriors of Eden stepped through the open portal. Volgondia's saviours were coming.
Chapter 3: The Dimension of Volgondia
In a blinding flash in the beautiful fields of Volgondia, the warriors of Eden emerged onto the planets surface. Quickly formulating their battle plan, as it is never certain where is safe on this planet, they set off on foot, so as to not raise a power level, towards their target. After an uneventful trek, they arrived at a river, where the group took their first rest.
But this break was more eventful than the travelling, as Midnight spotted a Hazar scout, and attempted to neutralize hit. However, with its last dying breath it let out a blood-curdling scream. Breaks over, the battles on.
The group headed to the long grass, gaining the advantage of stealth and cover. Moving onwards slowly, keeping alert for the Hazarian warriors, Eden's forces tried to get to an advantageous point for them. But they could not evade the enemy forces for long, as soon 45 Hazars were heading straight for their position. Asparoukh telepathically shouted his orders, and the warriors split up into their teams. They stayed hidden until Asparoukh's mark, waiting for the Hazars to get close enough.
But on the Kouberan's mark, all hell broke loose. The warriors immediately engaged the Hazars from all sides, some faring better than others. But soon, it seemed that numbers would overwhelm skill, as the Edeners soon began to falter. However, in the nick of time the Cavalry arrived, a group of Kouberian Fighters advancing onto the field and dispatching the remaining Hazars. The warriors were able to recuperate, and acquaint themselves with the locals. However, on Eden, trouble was afoot.
The Knight of the Kiaos, deep in a forest on Eden, had encountered the vile beasts known as the Hazars. After battling with them for some time, he was accompanied by the guardian himself, and the for-long unseen Eckolon, Alykoth. The warriors vanquished the Hazars, but it seemed more would be to come.
Chapter 4: Volgondia's Final Stand
After everyone in the party had acquainted themselves with the Kouberians, they headed to the Kouberian Headquarters. Discussing everything, old and new, on the way, they seemed to have yet another uneventful journey. Upon reaching the Kouberian City, the warriors were in awe its beauty.
They were taken through to the Centre of Operations, escorted by the Kouberian guards. When Asparoukh met with his old allies, they soon came up with the plan for Volgondia's Final Stand. They Warriors of Eden would split into two groups, one to reclaim the Port known as Nigon, and the second to make their stand at Sedemnitza. The party separated, and the warriors prepared for battle…
However, back on Eden, the 3 warriors had been joined by the giant Hybrid, J-Bomb. And it seemed they would need all the help they could get, the Hazar Forces seeming to have no end. But knowing they had to stop this threat, and destroy the path they took to reach Eden, they punched through the forces to their core. After their tiresome battle, the Knight of the Kiaos and the Guardian of Eden broke down the portal to the Hazar world. Eden was saved.
However, back on Volgondia, the battles were still raging. The boats to Nigon had set sail, and the warriors at Sedemnitza had set off into war. When the Nigon troops arrived at the port town, they found it ravaged, the women and children's corpses lying in the street. It seemed the Hazars numbered in hundreds; the Kouberians less than fifty. But when the Warriors of Eden broke into the fray, numbers mattered little. The Hazars were slaughtered, and the port was saved. But on other parts of the planet, battles were not going as well.
The warriors at the city were taking their rest in the palaces guest suits, but it was called short as the Kouberians called for their aid. The Hazars were upon them, and they were needed in the battle. Jakole, Gareeku, Midnight and Asparoukh headed down to the battlefield, where they made their entrances, and killed their share of Hazars. However, the numbers of the Hazar army far exceeded those at Nigon, and the Kouberian forces were being whittled down with increasing speed. However, at the final hour of battle, the warriors from Nigon appeared on the field, and the combined forces managed to destroy the Hazars once and for all. Asparoukh's blade ripped out the heart of the final Hazar, and the battle was over.
Volgondia was safe, and the warriors could return home.
