One day, six magical stones fell from the sky into the demons' realm. Inscribed on the stones were the crests of fire, earth, air, water, time and heaven. Soon the demons began to fight over these magical crests and the realm erupted into civil war.

Finally, the red demon defeated all the others and collected five crests. Not satisfied with the crests of fire, earth, air, water and time, the red demon challenged the demon dragon for the crest of heaven. After a long and desperate battle, the red demon slayed the dragon and gained the final crest, but the price of victory was high. The red demon was critically wounded.
