Plot: "Welcome to the early days of Earth, a time of magic and wonder where lands are inhabited by Elves, Dwarves and Orcs. A time when all the lands were ruled by the Elven Court and their Overlord, Inioch. Then came the mortal humans, banished from their Garden, they set sail for new grounds, and conflict with the ancient ones was inevitable.

And so it came that the humans attacked the Elven Court. The ancient ones, surprised and outnumbered, lost. After the death of of their leader, Inioch, the Elves split into various groups. Some Elves forgave the humans, while the more fanatic Elves saw only one way; the extermination of the human race. These Elves became known as the dreaded Dark Elves. Hidden in their underground dwellings, the Dark Elves planned to resurrect the Overlord and rid the world of humankind, forever!" So sayeth the chronicles of Unicorns.
