"Cyrus Cyril was the leading mage and spell weaver, He was unique. He had the ability to wield all the magics. He was a genius, albeit insane, he was a signal of talent, and took it upon himself to create a utopian society of magic users. He disreguarded the normals of seperating the greater societies of people." The man in the brown robes moved.

"He took people he personally found, and took them as he desired to build this society, he was unfortunately sucsessful. He was a powerful man, but as the gods have tought us magic is illigal, and those who practice it are souless cretins."

"But times have changed the gods have deemed it is ok for races to mingle and associate. I find it disgusting, however the gods support it so I tolerate it."

A young women in the croud began to cough, you snapped your focus over to her, it was the other person. The elvan women drew a bow back from up in the rafters, took aim, and held as she saw something. The young women in the croud started to cough again, more pronounced this time, looking up to where the elvan woman was. The elvan women released the string, and the arrow peired the robed man's neck, and stuck into the floor boards. The man looked up, choking on his own blood, and colapsed, cracking his head open on the desk next to him.

There was a sudden and loud crack as the rafters broke under the Elvan women's weight. And a sudden wisp as she vanished into the outside and ran into the woods.
-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-`-

This is only a commen example of the violence between the churches, and the magic users of the long since dead Cyril school. There was o more outright war betweent he users and the church. However violence, and distrust remained. Often members of the church would be assassinanted in the same way.

There were so few users, but there were many people. Maybe one billionth of the population could use magic. But it was generally contained to certain areas, which was caused by the magic released hen a user was born.

The northern Continent: contains the homeland of the Yachtin, The Versaii mountain range, A large very tall mountain range with temperatures averaging, far belwo zero. to the east there is an expancive forest, that even goes out hundreds of feet into the water, and further north, the ice. The south carries and expancive plains area, it is arguably a desert, seeing as there are common sandstorms, weather natural or not. The west contains very hihly decayed swamplands, very dark and manythings go in and don't come out, it is rumored Crete-ah originate here.

A small land bridge is guarded by most races, and is ensured to never be destroyed, only to make sure the fighting always continues

The Southern Continent: Was damaged most by the war, the center of the larger continent is decimated. Rumor has it that a powerful Red mage was able to melt the land, and crete a portal to the under realms here. It is assumed that Naga, Succubae, Incubae, and Bledes Came to the planet from this event. Ask any of them, and they will all deny it. the south has an expancive caverns system the Bledes claim they originate from here. The north, is ravaged, wasteland nothing can live here for very long, powerful magics forgotten by the generations of today, speed up time, and cause things to die much quicker. It is also rumored here thatin the now wastelands was a glorius city that the Council of Balence used to reside in, these same rumors would have you believe that if you are near death in the area where the city was, you can see the entire city, as you die. The west, has a true grassland, Flat, pleanty of food, and peaceful, the only place a local tyrant has not taken hold. The centuars hold true to thei old customs and are among the few who do not got o quarell with enemies.

THe majority of the water form the other two continents to the Archipeligo, is very shallow and able to be crossed without worry. However during the rainy seasons, the water becomes impassable and anyone in that area is sure to be lost.

The Eastern Continent: Is really a large Archipeligo, or chain of volcanic islands. most territory is synonomis with eavh other. Rare birds and fruit, groew on each island. Tyrany has also remained out of these places, due to many odd occurences, with people disapearing, and the constant fog that seems to cover the entire area.

The Oceans: Are near impossible to navigate if the water is much deaper than seventy feet deap. Vicious armored creatures live in the water, that constantly hunt for vessels, or people to eat.

The Æther: Or the sky, is also equally impossibly to navigate due to fearsome bird like creatures that constantly hunt above the clouds. Rarely one is killed and not consumed before it hits ground. Skeletons, are usually only found in the far northern mountains frozen. They are commonly also dropped into the deadly waters.

The Ices: Is a large ice field in the north. It covers the deepest and coldest sections of the Oceans, The Ice is nearly inpenitrable from below. The ices are exceptionally large and cover an area greater than the southern continent. However due to an odd phenomena, there are severel very dangerous and unique storms that force down a piece of the ice just long enough for the Ocean creature to devour any and everything in that section.
