Long before Final Fantasy and the epics of today were crafted, there was once a man who took people to a magical land inhabited by mythical and magnificent creatures, where great warriors decended from gods took center stage. Their deeds shaped a nation, their strength upheld the virtues of fearlessness. In ancient greece, the traveling bard Homer, brought with him tales of epic magnitude. People would gather around and Homer's verse would transport them to Worlds of Fantasy. With this sword I engender thee with the spirit for adventure and the eternal quest for existence's coveted truth.

Role-Playing-Games have their roots firmly planted in Homeric verse, and when reading the Iliad you will discover how much the games reflect the imagery, environment, and themes of this bible of epics.
