The Enlightened splintered from the Leonus Basilica, forming Quayin, and starting a war with Abette.
The Enlightened sought out the source of power that is being held in the Leonus Basilica so that all might use it. After discovering where the power was being held but not what the power is, The Enlightened was discovered by Pios Goldenroar and exiled from Abette. Since exile, The Enlightened established Qayin and began to amass followers of a similar mind to start a war with Abette over the power source inside Leonus Basilica. Jennar Frostheart, leader of The Enlightened, made a deal with the Yokai to fight against Goldenroar.
