Annihilation of the Highlanders depicted in Grand Chase Dimensional Chaser.
The Highlanders were a special group of immortals who revived and recruited Sieghart. They also formulated an organization called the Prime Knights who specialized in not only battle but also channeling power that could rival gods.
All Highlanders except Sieghart were annihilated by Ashtaroth. The blood and spirits of the deceased Highlanders also inadvertently created Uno.
Background[]
The Highlanders were the strongest special force in ancient Kounat due to their immortality. Therefore, it was only possible to become one by having a deity bloodline like the Kounat Royal Family and nobles of the kingdom. In Sieghart's case, however, Mari had speculated that some sort of bioengineering technology was applied to him.
The Highlanders' source of immortality is said to be a sphere that contains their soul and when destroyed will end a Highlander's life.
