For many centuries, all was well between the lands. Civilization, agriculture, and magic prospered beautifully in each kingdom and country. However, among humankind war seems almost inevitable. For one reason or another, Kingdoms will start bloody battles between one another.
The Current conflict has been brought about by Kenric's Wizard King. His mother and father were killed due to a disease spread by magic, and although he is quite the powerful wizard and quite skilled in the arts of magic, over the years since his childhood he has come to hate magic as well as anything related. Everything began with hateful comments, which turned into insults, which then turned into forceful suggestions. In this end it led to war.
Kenric's ruler has focused all of his hatred on the Kingdom of Edlin, currently the most prosperous in individuals with magic. The King of Kenric has made it his life goal to eliminate all who wiled magic, as well as any sort of literature or objects related or based on magic.
Edlin's ruler was given the option of either giving up all of his citizens with magical abilities, or starting a bitter war. Edlin's king chose war.
For almost five years now the two powerful kingdoms have been fighting for what they believe to be right, for how they believe things ought to be.
The nearby Kingdom of Abadden has not yet been pulled into war, but they have been ensured by Kenric that if they are not to join their side, they will be anihilated once the Kingdom of Edlin is defeated. Abadden as well as the smaller countries of Fyren, Eskil, and Anko now face a decision;; should they choose the safe option of joining Kenric's force, or shall they fight for their beliefs, their love for magic and risk being invaded and massacred?
Edlin's school of magic, Raziel Palace, is the largest and most heard of institute on the continent. The largest population of the gifted, from all Kingdoms combined, reside and study here. Kenric's king constantly sends spies, assassins, and even Mord Sith to the school, making constant attempts at the First Wizard and Sorceress' life. Life at the school is not as safe as it used to be. Students are urged to learn faster, finish their studies quicker in order to join the battlefront. Kenric's army is far vaster than Edlin's, the only thing keeping the enemy back being Edlin's vast amount of the magically gifted.
