The Woman in Blue/The Battles of Gitagon

In the Black forest of Gitagon, a prophecy exists which says that a Blue woman shall come and bring light to the forest and make its trees green again. She shall rid the forest of evil.

The Rumaji sect is a group of archers who live in the Black forest and worship the Blue woman as a goddess. Their religion is deeply rooted in the Blue woman prophecy. Their main enemies are the Warlocks of the Bows who are great warriors who combine physical combat with magic. These warlocks are great marksmen who believe in the Snake god Dan Jabi and they wish for the forest to retain its dark nature.

The Liamba, a group of five sorcerers who practice black magic, terrorize the forest by resurrecting the dead as their agents.

The forest has black trees, light has never penetrated into it so it always dark. Weird and unknown creatures which are obviously dangerous exist in the forest. This forest covers almost half the world. The other half of the world is water with few islands called the New World collectively.

Pegan and his sister Marie are rich kids from the New World. They are caught in a storm at sea. The whole crew dies but they survive only to find that the nearest land is the Black Forest. Even the water surrounding the forest is black.

Robin Jelan is an archer who wishes to go to the Black Forest to fulfill a promise to a certain woman while Mogothik is a soldier warlock who is going to the forest for his own dark purposes. The two join each other and head to the Dark forest.

Ron Patel, Pegan and Marie’s father, sends the Brotherhood of Cain, who are a group of knights, to recover his children. The New Wolders are caught up in the war between the Rumaji sect, the Liamba and the Warlocks of the Bows.
