In the world of Melpharia, 5 factions who once lived in peace together, grew more irritable with each other over petty squabbles and minor differences. Over time tensions build-up and have erupted into a full-on war for control over the crystals that govern life on Melpharia!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fantasy Earth Zero is an MMORPG developed by Gamepot and later handled by Square Enix.
