Den of the Ancients

You can't fight the moonlight.

Grandmaster Nayul, fervent in his desire to vanquish evil and become stronger, delved deep into the mystic arts to create a sacred space that would hone the skills of aspiring warriors. Within the hallowed walls of the Ajanara Monastery, he crafted the Den of the Ancients, a training ground boasting an extraordinary trio of ageless Alphas, revered since time immemorial.

As warriors set foot into this sacred domain, they are greeted by three ethereal guardians who shimmer in the light, beckoning them with a promise of inner harmony and tranquility. Yet the path to enlightenment is not for the faint of heart. Warriors must be ready to channel their chi and brace themselves for battle.

The three Alphas, Hachi, Machi, and M'ao, stand at the ready, their power palpable in the very air. Each embodies a unique strength, and together they form an unbreakable force. With their guidance, warriors can overcome any obstacle and triumph over the forces of darkness.
