At the dawn of times, in the Far East, a child was born, beautiful as no one had ever seen, daughter of the water and the earth. As a reward for her purity and kindness, she received the gift of eternal life. Because of her beauty and wisdom, though, every men of the kingdom longed to have her. To escape from the clutches of all those suitors she retreated to a monastery on top of the Sacred Mountains and decided to turn into a white lily, with only a purpose: all the travellers who would visit that place of peace to pray, would be able to admire her... Not long after, a woman known as Lady Victoria, who loved pleasures and herself beyond all logics, reached the peak of her youth, and began to fear aging, so, in order to avoid the inevitable decay, she began to search a solution, and soon learned about the legend that was told around the Sacred Mountains of the Far East ... Secretly decided to undertake the trip and, in a full-moon night, her heart darker than ever, she stole the lily from the monastery and hid it. For many years she kept it just for herself, with greed and jealousy, until one day, seeing that time was gaining the upper hand, she decided to drink its essence, in order to turn into an immortal being. She left just a drop of the precious juice, which she would give to someone she would find deserving. The price of her execrable action was high, though. As a punishment for destroying such a pure and innocent being, gods cursed her: anyone she would ever love, would die. But, though she had devoted all her time to the pursuit of pleasure and sin, a little later she began to feel lonely and bored ... One day, her path was crossed by a young human being who shared her ideals of beauty, the same unbridled passion for debauchery and was also very charming, with absolutely cool detachment, which charmed everybody around him, even more. His name was Rain. She was so impressed that decided to give him that last drop of liliy's essence, jealously preserved, to have him turned to immortal too. Together, they ploughed the ages: it was said that they were lovers, but they couldn’t be, since for them it was forbidden, and they both knew the curse. They took pleasure in perversion and dominated the mere mortals, but what gave them most satisfaction was music, and one day they decided to create their own. They got what they wanted. It was something that transcended human understanding ... Their story slowly changed into legend, when in front of them appeared a young knight. He was known under the name of Alexandre and there were rumors that he too was immortal. Following a betrayal perpetuated by the woman he loved, he announced a pact that would make him immortal with a price: he would freeze the part that once bound him to his beloved. Half human and half ice ... His shady and iced side had heard the call of music and was carried away by the charm of Lady Victoria and Rain ... The three new creatures lived ages, meeting figures considered by men as eminent, leaving the trace of their passage, never revealing their identity, and adapted their music to new demands ... And it was so, wandering in the shadows, that they knew who would complete this unique group: Shadow. He was extremely quiet. He wouldn't tell anything about himself, the only known thing was that he was born a long time before all human beings.... He expressed his passion for music, though not in words. Now the four felt complete. Nobody really ever knew anything about them, except for those things....Just one thing is certain: in every era, they have shown at least once their faces and their music to the world .. "
