Rough story:

In times of old, before people walked the land there were 2 groups. One of light and one of darkness. They got on well, keeping balance in the world. One day the group of light decided to create life to live on their world, creating people of different races and gifting them with elemental magic. The group of darkness, however, created one race called the Grimm. Gifting them with the power to destroy. The two groups fought and eventually settled on a deal. Their races would live on the earth in harmony, live their lives, but the magic and powers would rarely pass down through their offspring and the groups would no longer exist, leaving their creations to coexist. However, the group of darkness left one last “gift” to the people, hidden away. A powerful relic that would bring back the two groups and reset their world. And thus began life in their world...

The story takes place in this present-day world (1600 setting) where two groups are looking for the relic left behind by the group of darkness. One is a group of pirates, hired by the Queen for this task in order to bring the relic under protection so it doesn’t fall in the wrong hands. The other is a group of Grimm, the last of their race, searching for the relic left by their ancestors the group of darkness. The leader wants to reset the world to rebuild it so the Grimm can have a better chance in the new world.

Races:

Humans: Normal people, no natural magic, nothing special about them. Can only use magic through use of rare enchanted amulets.

Eleva: Elven like folk from the mountains. Most of the natural magic users come from this race.

Grimm: Look similar to humans? Very few exist and those that do work together to study their ancestors of the group of darkness.

Protagonist: Leader of a Pirate crew hired by the Queen to find the treasure before Antagonist does. At first, only doing it for the money, but quickly figures out the Antagonists plans and develops a goal to stop them.

Antagonist: Leader of a powerful group of Grimm that wants to reset the world for the good of their people. Needs the relic from the Island to do this. Barely shows emotions, cares deeply for their people. Doesn't want to reset the world but believes it is the only way her people can have a chance.

Environment: Oak Island Swamp. Bayou. Old trees, vines. Relic exists way deep in a system of labyrinthian caves. Many who have tried to find the Relic have died.
