Now a miner has uncovered a strange symbol, the seal of the king who first trapped the demons, and unwittingly destroys the seal setting them free. Odd thing is, it appears that it wasn't an accident that the seal was destroyed. (If you would like a full plot overview, spoilers and all, just let me know.)
