Nexus des éléments

Description

Introduction

Suite à la découverte de la cité de Selarya, des moines se sont mit à étudier les multiples oeuvres de la grande bibliothèque de Ludya. Lors de leurs recherches ils ont découvert des vieux parchemins qui expliquaient des anciennes techniques d'art martiaux. Ces techniques utilisent l'énergie des éléments en symbiose avec un style de combat à main nue très difficile à maitriser appellé la technique Nexus.

Lorsque l'étude des parchemins a été complété, un ordre de moine a été fondé sous le nom du nexus des éléments pour étudier ce style. Le premier monastère à enseigné cet art a été construit dans les montagnes de crystale à proximité de Selarya, il s'appelle le monastère de l'aurore élémentale. Cette école de pensé s'est ensuite répendu dans d'autres monastères dans les cités élémentales et dans d'autres royaumes.
