During the earliest span of the age of Darkness,

Found in the writings of only the most aged manuscripts,

Lived a world born of mystic arts, and ancient sorcery,

SOSARIA

Despite SOSARIA's enchanged origins its people shunned magic for it's very use corrupted the souls of the unwary.

But, one man dared to awaken the slumbering powers of alchemy..

Twisting the awesome power of the Gem of Immortality to his will and binding all of SOSARIA to his corruption:

MONDAIN the WIZARD (curse his name)

His power was absolute as the whole of the planet was gripped in his cruel embrace.

Only the appearance of a STRANGER saved SOSARIA from impending destruction.

From whence HE came no one knows but HIS strength and courage were without peer,

In this STRANGER lay SOSARIA's only hope.

Only a traveler from the stars could release this world from MONDAIN's vile stranglehold (curse his name.)

HE would prove himself a savior, shattering the Gem of Immortality and defeating MONDAIN (curse his name.)

But, a deeper and more sinister evil was released with the destruction of the Gem.

For SOSARIA was not free of the Stone's power..

The planet was still bound to the jewel's magic even as it lay shattered upon the floor of MONDAIN's castle (curse his name.)

For within each shattered remnant of the Jewel dwelled a perfect likeness of SOSARIA.

Thus is the world in which you are born, live, and die.

Britannia that was once SOSARIA now exists as a thousand worlds each with its own peoples, history, and destiny.

This Britannia is but one of many in the Universe that is ULTIMA.
