History of Eden

For many generations, the peaceful inhabitants of Eden have lived in fear of the tyrant, Moorkus Rex. With his bloodlusting hordes of rampaging Tyrannosatirs, Moorkus Rex has mounted a terrible campaign of destruction against the human and dinosaur races. His ultimate goal is domination of Eden.
YOUR ultimate goal is to prevent his aggression and end his reign of fear forever.
In the game, you are Prince Adam of Mo, heir to the throne of the kingdom of Mashaar. You are ambitious and courageous, anxious to begin shaping the future—shaping not only your own future, but that of Eden. And foremost in your mind, is the need to defeat Moorkus Rex. Your father, King Gregor, is an old man with little fighting spirit left to face the I yrann leader. His own vision of the future is bleak. He believes that nothing can prevent Moorkus Rex’s ultimate victory; and it will simply be a matter of time before the Tyrannosaurs conquer Eden. You respect your father, but you do not share his grim vision of the future. You believe that, with help, you can defeat Moorkus Rex and his army.
Lost Eden title
The game begins on the day of your Coming of Age. Ever since your mother and your sister were murdered by the Tvrann on the plains of Mashaar, King Gregor has forbidden you to leave the safety of Mo. As you are the last surviving heir to the throne, you must not be exposed to the unnecessary dangers in the world outside. But you long to leave Mo and see the magnificent lands of Eden with your own eyes. You do not share his pessimism and are determined to halt the fyrann wave of death, before it is too late. You already have a formidable defense to use against them...
Your home—the great citadel of Mo—is an impregnable fortress, which will never be stormed by the Tyrannosaurs. But while your own subjects are safe in Mo, the Tyrann’s rampage through the surrounding lands, killing and enslaving your would-be allies: the other races of human-types and the peaceful dinosaurs.
In vour dreams, you have foreseen an end to this destruction. A future free from the tyranny of Moorkus Rex. You have great heroic ambitions—ambitions to unite the humans and dinosaurs as allies against the Tyrannosaurs. And you have a plan—a plan which will persuade the others to rally to your cause. If you can build citadels like your own at Mo, in the valleys where the other human-types live, they will be safe from the Tyrann attacks. With a network of such citadels across the land, there will once more be hope for the future. Convinced of your noble intentions, others will rally to the cause. With the rest of Eden allied against them, the Tyrann will surely be defeated.
There is only one problem...
The great secret of the citadels has been lost!
Your great grandfather: Priam, known as The Architect, built the Citadel of Mo. This gargantuan fortress defies all known laws of construction.
Its very existence is an enigma—a source of wonder to all who behold it. How could The Architect have built such a structure?
But alas, this great secret has been lost in the mists of time. All knowledge of its construction was purged from history by Priam’s own son,Vangor, a cruel warlord who sought a treacherous alliance with Moorkus Rex. Vangor, who became known as The Enslaver, had all who had been involved in the citadel’s construction put to death to prove his intentions.
Sincerely, you believe The Architect’s great secret can be rediscovered. Therefore, your mission has two stages. First, you must rediscover the great secret. You must learn how to construct citadels like the one at Mo. And then you must visit the valleys of Eden. In each valley, you must build a citadel to defend the inhabitants from the Tyrann. You must also persuade these inhabitants to become your allies—to join with you in a campaign of war against Moorkus Rex and his legions of death.
