Winter Month: 3

A thousand years ago, during the times of war and famine across the kingdom's lands, there were 5 special people blessed with giants of mechanical animals at their sides that were at their command. These 5 promised safety, and peace for as long as they could manage to the people, and those people listened. Having been plagued and infested with the aftermath of battle after battle and none won, they had been close to that of desperate. Even to strangers. The five, after the cry for help, joined the fray and drove back an invading army force that was slowly turning the whole area to ruins and transforming it to something even darker, more chaotic, and would surely bring things to ruin within seconds should they achieve total control of the whole land. It took 8 Years of fighting for the special 5 to kill the mighty forces, and slay the 3 ringleaders. They brought justice and peace to the lands once more. But people were selfish and greedy, jealous, Skeptical, and very easily misguided.
Some thought, after the few years of peace, that the guardians would betray them one day, knowing they had such power at their hands with their mechanical partners at their sides. Others were jealous of their powers and the greatness they have achieved, the rest viewing them as worthless now that the threat was gone and that they didn't need them anymore. Nevertheless their views, with Swords and weapons, and battalions in tow, they banished them. The people brought with them a kind of magic that spell folk had been developing in their peaceful era that the guardians had never seen. Successfully, they were sealed away in a collective pocket dimension by a wizard, wiped from the face of the earth and their stories being told in a dark light. Tales of them being nothing more than menaces of trickery, deception and out for glory ultimately outweighing the stories telling of their selfless actions and the armies they faced for their kingdom.
Cut to now. It's about a thousand years later. The guardians have been assumed to have perished, lost in time and forgotten for seemingly an eternity until now. A spell tucked inside of a book belonging to that of a wizard from old, one that was long lost and thrown away by the people after losing their faith, had been opened. Used. A certain spell that lay inside the book uttered after a century of rest. By doing so, all of the guardians of olde have been freed of their chains and returned to the real world. Now, however, they must deal with what to do next in the presence of the five clearly inexperienced children that summoned them. With a threat of giant mechanical beasts resembling those of which they used to command arriving on the horizon, they can either choose to turn their backs on humanity like they did them, or hold faith towards the new generation.
