Olek Skilgannon, or Skilgannon the Damned, was in love with Princess Jianna since he was young. While Skilgannon grew up to be a skilled swordsman, Jianna's addiction to power turned her into the Witch Queen. She resorted to any means to achieve her goals, including taking advantage of Skilgannon’s one-sided love. As such, Jianna gave the Swords of Night and Day to Skilgannon. She then ordered him to kill everyone in the city of Perapolis, who were opposing her rule.
The Old Woman created the Swords of Night and Day. She also imbued them with demonic powers. Both swords look identical. However, the Sword of Day is made of gold, while the Sword of Night is forged in silver. While the swords bless the user with great strength, they also drive him into a killing frenzy.
Consequently, the Swords of Night and Day took control of Skilgannon's mind, causing him to go on a rampage. Not even the women and children were spared. When he finally regained consciousness, it was already too late. Skilgannon was devastated. He decided go into exile — taking the Swords of Night and Day with him — so as to atone for his sins He also .
However, Jianna was incorrigible. As such, Skilgannon returned from exile, and took it upon himself to save her soul. After overcoming many challenges, he finally confronted Jianna. In the end, Jianna was touched by his undying love for her. She repented, and peace was restored in the lands of Drenai.

Skilgannon was hailed as a hero. However, he wasn't allowed to rest — even in death. 1,000 years later, Landis Kan brought Skilgannon back to life in a new body. The priest seeks the hero's help, for the lands of Drenai are in peril. Jianna has been reanimated — without emotions and memories — under mysterious circumstances. Consequently, she is eviler than ever, and now calls herself the Eternal.
Fortunately, Skilgannon still has the Swords of Night and Day after all these years. Indeed, he would need their powers to combat the Eternal’s abominations, and once again rescue his love from darkness.
