On a parallel Earth, instead of a meteor that ended the dinosaurs two hundred and fifty million years ago, it was a massive lightning bolt. It cracked the continents apart and wiped out ninety percent of all life on the planet. The massive continent of Mu, once thought a myth lost to history, stood highest and most flourishing of all the continents, brimmed with species and fauna further evolved than the remainder of the planets life. The lightning bolt that decimated the planet, sunk the huge landmass beneath the oceans, forcing the other tectonic plates to drastically shift and constantly realign to compensate. Now, millions of years later, the tiny island republic of Sunlatveria stands on the forefront of progress in all fields imaginable. The micro-nation also sits atop the only surviving piece of Mu above sea level and energy left behind from the impact of the heavenly energy radiates across the whole island, slowly breathing life and warmth into all life.

The founding dynasty discovered the truth behind the extinction event through a secret deposit of the extraterrestrial energy hidden deep beneath the island. A secret that would infect their bloodline forever, all the while blessing their lives to the fullest, pushing them beyond the realms of possibilities of man. Exploiting the strange energy left behind, the family draws the eyes of all the nations in the world, but willing to do anything to protect their home, Solidius, the hero slash villains of our story will use the power of the gods in any means necessary.
