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 hallowed ground, they are greeted by three ethereal guardians, promising inner harmony and tranquility. Yet the path to enlightenment is not for the faint of heart.
