Story
Zu is a mythical mountain range in Sichuan, China, which legends describe as home to immortals with amazing powers. In the past, a war broke out between the good immortals and the evil demons. It started when Blood Demon, the leader of the evil forces, led the demon assault on Zu. In the middle of the war, a relic known as Oracle Rock was created with the Heavenly Scripture inscribed on its surface that held the secret to stop the Blood Demon. The immortal clans hurried to the Oracle Rock, but Blood Demon and his followers ambushed them. A battle ensued, and the Oracle Rock itself was smashed into many shards and scattered all over the Zu world.
The game starts 10 years after the battle at Oracle Rock, with the players entering Zu as one of the Five Clans of Zu to continue the battle against Blood Demon and the evil demons. The world of Zu is slowly showing effects of corruption by Bics.

Famous quotes containing the word story:
“The face of the water, in time, became a wonderful book—a book that was a dead language to the uneducated passenger, but which told its mind to me without reserve, delivering its most cherished secrets as clearly as if it uttered them with a voice. And it was not a book to be read once and thrown aside, for it had a new story to tell every day.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“The unread story is not a story; it is little black marks on wood pulp. The reader, reading it, makes it live: a live thing, a story.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
“I should like to suggest that at least on the face of it a stroke by stroke story of a copulation is exactly as absurd as a chew by chew account of the consumption of a chicken’s wing.”
—William Gass (b. 1924)
