"But 40 years ago, I heard that you had been the best hero in Colossus.. Please tell your story, I came here from long distance.." "well, It is difficult for me to refuse your request..what kind of story do you want?" "It is supposed to open Colossus again...then.." "Then, breathing of dusk is nothing?" "Yes, you right. you already know it... I found it for 2 years but it's difficult." "You had a wrong guess... the breathing of dusk not finding but coming to someone. The breathing of dusk is always come to someone..." "But,does the breathing of dusk simbolize the spirit of Colossus, doesn't it? We don't know how open Colussus without it. It is likely that mamy guilds are preparing to gain the honor." "Ha!ha!...I also practiced ver hard to join Colossus. The competition was very much intense, lastly, I won..." "So you got breathing of dusk now?" "No, I don't now... I gave my old friend.." "Can i meet him? We must get breathing of dusk at all costs." "The friend leaved long time ago..You had better give up to find him. It is too difficult. Anyway how much you know about Colossus?" "I think i know a lot about it..well.. I can't find it so I know it a little.." "So let me tell about it... do you want some beer?" "Sure...please tell me about it.." The continent is filled up with enthusiasm of war. So, ancient 8 continent is enveloped in war. 500 years ago, the continent was quite different with present. At that time, each tribe did not interchange and set up kindom. So the continent is divided. Because man was most, finally they got 3 nation. Orc, fairy, hobit*, elf, dwarf tribes also have held a kingdom. At that time dragons breed their own area where could not called a nation, dragon lord was waiting for own time to the world. Dreaming domination... Senaver empire and Redagrun empire. The great war of this two empire was a big opposition. Human beings each other most often fought among tribes.Though oak and dwarf tribe also often and long have fought, but it is the only feature of human tribes that same tribe fight. however, through politics and deplomacy, other tribes could not avoid from the war. Finally, 8 empire divided one's side each other and became to fight. this age is called "8 years of 8 empire". As it was before, the opposition could not meet the end and death was increased every day. According to the war is getting long, the people were starving, families that sweared in a royal family made the country confuse through every plot and betrayal for protecting own wealth and one's person. The people are starving and lived in the fear. The high class was filled with confusion and division. in this kind of situation merchants prospered most of them. The future was so dark, in front of this dark future other merchant of guild also cannot permit that kind of situation. Now the only solution persuade a royal family to merchants. It is difficult to persuade them because they have different culture and thinking. If the war is not stoppen, merchants' moneymaking, farmer's field, economy of the nation, power of the nobility all of this shall be fruitless. In spite of only one man, if he continue the war, the ground will be filled with death and starving again. So merchant oder begin the persuasion through visiting royal families. Although their cultural difference and notion different each other, opponent tribes cannot deny to merchants' prediction. Furthermore, because merchants understood well about cultural difference and are diplomatical, their prediction came true. The grihid's proposal make a national game like a war. Through ostentation of one's power and well-mannered friendship battle, his proposal could be profited to each other for economy of every nations. So, the goal of guild war is that only guilds progress the game without national intervention . Grihid who predict feudalism satisfied the warlike desire of guilds. The name of game was called Colussus from nickname of Colo city. Before long, the plan of Colossus was started and merchant order decided to pay all the piper. He needed a prize that tempted guilds. The winner must receive the simbol of honor and power as Colossus. Grihid took action to prepare. At that time arenas was making , grihid called on 12 librarians of Senaver* to help and at last he found the great blacksmith for the best trophy. In the end of long voyage and suffering, grihid could arrive other continent. He was moved by beauty of dusk of this continent, so he called the continent 'the continent of dusk'. Having understood grihid's meaning and intention, the grand master blacksmiths consented his proposal. This blacksmiths made a best tropy for a year, grihid returned "breathing of dusk" in his arms. For that 1 year the construction of arenas was completed. As guild was spilt, the guild made a struggle for power. Because of grihid's absence the guild fall into confusion, so the guild needed a person who lead the guild temporarily. Finally, this position became seed of division. First of all, grihid did not put together the guild and he wanted to interrupt the war as soon as possible through starting guild war. That was his best mistake. Nevertheless grihid looked the struggle for power, he did not unite the guild and his power was in bothing but the name. But the world recognized grihid as guild master as before and their struggle for power only seemed like a small children fight. So merchants got their feelings under control and waited for grihid. furthemore in the end of the world Grihid brought a great trophy. Grihid promised free trade to the master blacksmiths. the promise meant that merchants of continent could trade freely. Grihid expected the loyal families to permit. as a result this promise caused the anger of guild members of merchant Oder. guild members were earning a large sum of money monopolistically in the continent. they thought that would diminish their income because of the promise. they could not think the development of economy and growth of culture through the promise, and they protest to Grihid. However, Grihid neglected this protest. He thought that he could stop the war. He concentrated only guild war. And this cause a disgraceful affair. The guild deprived Grihid's political power and assassinated him. Grihid he dreamed of a peaceful world without war, Loyal families of 8 nation that know this fact had a heavy heart and the day when he died became a national holiday. And all of loyal families consent that they would be held in the day. Because 12 librarian were in charge of the prize, it could be progressed as Grihid's desire. Now, hundreds of years has passed since then, Colossus is not the culture and tradition of one nation or tribes but tradition of the continent. Yet, Colossus dream of his ideal society. Though people enjoy the battle for the best honor and prize without distinction of nation or tribe, as battle meet that picking out the best of continent, the winner only receive the honor of breathing of dusk. "Well, now how about...?" "I didn't know it had so deep story... So, I see,there was a reason why the day was the opening day of Colossus.." "Right.. So, do you understand a lot about breathing of dusk?" "Yes i do!! Now, I know what I progress in the future. I appreciate to let know about real meaning of Colossus. I'd better go to arena. I will seem to make a trophy." "Ha!ha!...You think well.. And then, do you finish construction of arena?" "That is old story of one arena in Colossus... multi-arena Colossus will be opened. please come." "Good.. hero of Colossus will appear*... if I can help you, I will.."
