Chapter I -- Introduction
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Hi Everyone.  This is my first attempt at writing a guide so stay with me.
Helbreath is a rather new Online RPG. A vast war is going on in the world of
Helbreath.  The Eldiniel and Aresien, two cities which emerge from the rubble
while, the rest are in ruin.  The two cities begin to conflict and a violent
war rages out.  Choose which city you are to join; your choice may sway the war
in one direction or the other.
