Storyline:

	The only Queen in the known world was captured by Mentor Eom Xan of the Xan Klan and held at Dominis Monastery since 994 A.D. Eom used some kind of ancient Metallightian to lure the Queen in her trap that was sealed with a mythical spell placed on the dungeon walls of Dominis. But he was not aware that the Queen is imune to any kind of weapon and magic known at that time, so he studiet this creature and find the way to eliminate all its attack abilities but only by isolating it complitely from its natural habitat from wich she drained mana. After a while came another surprise - The Queen start laying eggs. Eom knew that the spell won't stop the offsprings from inprisonment, and that they would probably try immediately escape from Dominis. Also it was likely that the Queen might as well escape through the gap. New spell must be made. Months and months passed by fast and Eom realise that he alone cannot recreate a spell for the new Queens. Nobody was knowing how long it takes for an egg to hatch and help from King Ulghar was not in consideration since Eom doublecrossed him in order to get the spell for the Queen.
	Ophus, Eom's apprentice, stole the crucial part of the spell by sneaking in Ulghars chambers during Kings negotiation with Eom. Later on King's astrologer reveald the truth and Eom was forced to seek refuge by Dominis Order. They too have shown inerest in Queen's power and were willing to hide Eom on Dominis despite of his exile.
	Now after all Eom was facing the posibility that he looses the Queen and with her, its freedom.
Only thing in his power was to slow down growth of the eggs. So he made a Shroud Of Slowness that would cover the eggs
for a long time. 
	Eom was killed in 1034 during the great cleansing with the whole Order Of Dominis but before that he manage to cast three Halum Spells that stoned the Queen, hopefuly for eternity. In a fragile years that came many controled Dominis but the Queen was unreachable. Slowly everyone abandon the monastery leaving the stoned Queen in oblivion. But only her body was asleep. Her soul was searching for escape. And it was near.
	1186. Year of The Great Conjunction. All planets within 12 degrees of the Sun. Energy that can concentrate in this phenomenon is so great that in a right timeline it can wipe out everything in its system and certenly energy that could replace the Queen's mana well. So she waited ...

	In 2482. Liandry corp. decide that it was time to go timetravell. The first set of Death Matches that occur afterwards,  was on Dominis in the year of this Great Conjunction. By that time Queen has learned to use its energy for extracting  the body from a stone and to resurrect when killed, so the players will have hard time to get to the MegaHealth.
Liandri even changed some Dominis tools to be used in the game, like the Metallightian that spawnes Armor and its other components that is now used as a lift and Damage holder. What they didn't concern was that the Queen cannot see or feel electronicly created beings like bots. They can harm her like any human player but she olny feels the presence of true lifeforms. 
	Be avare that in some timelines the 1186 is the year when The World ends. But finaly, isn't that true for every year?
