Editing Dragon Quest: The Mark of Erdrick (section)

==Story==

After the defeat of [[Zoma]] two descendants of [[Erdrick]] left [[Alefgard]] and founded two kingdoms, the kingdom of [[Carmen]], and the kingdom of [[Loran]], each taking half of the [[Mark of Erdrick]] with them. The rules of both kingdoms would wear neckleces with their half of the mark to protect themselves from evil spirits. 100 years later, the king of [[Carmen]] is leading a campaign against a tribe of evil shaman. Upon reaching the hideout of the shaman tribe, the king finds a demonic statue. Soon after, the king's necklace breaks. Without the protection of the mark, the king's mind is easily overtaken by the demonic statue's will.  

In the following months, the king worships and talks to the demonic statue in secret. The voice of the statue, which is none other than the [[Dragonlord]]'s, tells him to give his child the demonic name of [[Jagan]] instead of the holy name of [[Arus]].  When the queen gives birth, the king tries to take the child and hold a ceremony to name the prince [[Jagan]] but is stopped by General [[Volgoy]] and his daughter [[Lunafrea]], who suspects that the king is a demon in disguise and try to stop him from holding the ceremony. [[Volgoy]] attacks the king, who then transforms into a demon and kills the queen.  [[Lunafrea]] then uses a ring of light on the demon and defeats him. She then takes baby [[Arus]] and escapes the castle. She meets up with [[Giran]] and [[Tarkin]], and the group begins to live their life in secret so that monsters may never find the scion of the hero until he becomes a great hero. After the Dragonlord's failure to turn [[Arus]] into a demonic lord, he turns to the kingdom of [[Loran]] where another descendant of [[Erdrick]] is born and succeeds in naming him [[Jagan]], and turning him into a young demonic lord. 

10 years later [[Arus]] begins his journey along with [[Lunafrea]], Tarkin, and Giran and his son [[Kira]]. Soon after, the group meets Sage Kadal, who aided hero Erdrick in his journey to slay the Great Demonlord Zoma in the past.
