Storyline :
"In 1291, the last of the crusaders attempted a raid on the holy
land and were soundly defeated by Arabian warriors. While their
mission failed, they returned to Europe with seven treasures
with biblical blessings. On their journey back to their native
lands, they discovered that they possessed magical healing powers.
Corrupted and demoralized, they began using them for selfish desires,
and sought to be worshiped with the help of a devil incarnate, Ba'Mendes.
Their attempt at this also was also repelled by courage of good people,
and they were exiled to the mountains of Transylvania to be forgotten.
Four hundred years later, it was rumored that these relics ended up in
the possession of Count Dracula himself, and that they were among the
many treasures in his opulent collection that gave him the power to
oppress Transylvania with demons. After his defeat at the hands of
Simon Belmont, however, his castle crumbled to a heap in the mountains,
and the relics were thought to have never existed.
Shortly after, Lord Ghulash, an old acquaintance of Dracula who practiced
necromancy at the academy of Scholomance, scavenged the ruins of Castlevania
in search of the rumored relics, and found all but one. He started to use
their powers to terrorize Transylvania much in the same way that Dracula
had, resurrecting the souls of vile creatures and wicked men. The seventh
relic, a cross that burns away demons, had secretly been in possession of
the Belmont family for centuries.
Now, in 1693, Transylvania is once again infected by rampaging monsters
under the command of a dark lord whose ambition is to enslave all of humanity.
Simon, a proven hero, must once again deliver his homeland from the forces of evil."
