Ancient Protectors
Ancient Protectors
Organization Overview
The Ancient Protectors are legendary primordial guardians who existed long before the formation of the modern celestial realms. Forged during the earliest cosmic wars, these mythical beings once defended existence against catastrophic dimensional collapse and the first emergence of corruption energy.
Although many Ancient Protectors vanished or entered eternal slumber centuries before the events of the series, remnants of their power, temples, and knowledge remain scattered throughout the realms. Their legacy becomes increasingly important as Vikrant uncovers the forgotten truth behind the celestial prophecy.
