Guardians of Twilight
In the long distant past, SpellMasters ruled this world. They were nearly immortal in their powers. Their arcane powers they used to enslave the world, creating artefacts of terrible magic. But then, a new order arose. That order was the twilight, the brother and sister who were Sol and Luna came to the world. They destroyed the SpellMasters in the chaos wars. We of the Twilight are charged with protecting the world from the return of the SpellMasters, and so protect the world from the chaos that threatens to overwhelm it.
Beliefs of the Twilight
We are the Guardians, and we protect the earth, life, peace and harmony for they are our values. Sol and Luna rule the sky, they are each others opposite elements. In the light of day, Sol gives us life, power and strength, but at night Luna gives us the wisdom, understanding and knowledge to cope with Sol's gifts. There are always two poles, negative and positive, light and darkness we need both these opposites to define one from the other. The Twilight is the balance within these poles, it's the greatest secret of life to acknowledge both powers, and Live between them in concious awareness.
