Azuria and Vermeil: two countries, on a path to destruction.

When all hope seems lost, an egg is found.

Inside is a Rathalos, a species thought to be extinct.

But this quavering light of hope is quickly extinguished,

giving way

to the darkness of despair.

Born from the egg is not a single Rathalos,

but twins, bearing the Skyscale marking that hearkens back

to the disastrous civil war of 200 years prior.

The natural world teeters on the verge of destruction, with countless monster species facing extinction.

In the shadow of these dark times, the flames of war rekindle.

Two countries, and two Rathalos.

A Rider and their trusted Rathalos,

buffeted by the winds of fate, set out on a journey for the truth.
