Deep within the Dragonback Peaks beats the Molten Heart, the first source of fire in Crystalia.
From its magma chambers, endless rivers of lava bubble and boil to the surface, cascading down the mountainsides forming the Fire Flows.
The Fire Flows are surprisingly rich in life considering the harsh environment. Packs of Ember Hounds stalk its shores, dragging down the weak to be consumed in clouds of poisonous ash. Massive insects, their carapaces glowing like steel from a forge, drink deep of the molten rock. Elemental slimes are born by the thousands as volcanic eruptions ravage the landscape.
Ruling over it all is the Molten Lord, Roxor. Ancient as the mountains themselves, Roxor guards the Molten Heart and seeks to extend his fiery influence until all of Crystalia is consumed in flame.
