Divines of the East follows the story of the legendary Shennong, a Divine Farmer who taught people how to live off the land. Besides his farming abilities, Shennong possessed an outstanding knowledge of herbs and their usage for medicinal purposes - a skill that made him extremely popular amongst his people.
But this skill would also be the cause of his death. Shennong always experimented with herbs on his own body first, eventually poisoning himself with a bad herb while testing a new herbal remedy.
Upon death, Shennong's kind soul was rejected by the Emperor of Heaven, who was jealous that his people loved Shennong more than they loved him. As way of punishment, Shennong's soul was locked inside a tower, preventing his ability to reincarnate, and his body, which remained on earth, was split into pieces and used to restrain the fearsome Devils of Five Elements.
After 4 years trapped in the Tower of Heaven, another God secretly freed Shennong, allowing him to finally reincarnate. Upon learning what happened, the Emperor of Heaven's rage and fury shook the land and he immediately ordered every God go to Earth to hunt down Shennong’s reincarnation.
A day in heaven is equal to a year in the human world. It is now 1,400 years since Shennong was originally trapped in the tower, and the demons restrained using his body will not be happy to hear about his return.
Players take on the role of Shennong's reincarnation, embarking on a story that sees them hunted by the gods above and hated by the creatures below. To save the land, players will need to forge friendships, form clans, and call upon the power of the mystical creatures roaming Divines of the East's unique hand-drawn world.
