It was in the year 2012 that the upheaval occured. With the gradual corruption of the worlds governments that was taking place, it was no surprise that this occured. Many history textbooks argue about the true first conflict, the spark that lead to it all. One thing that is agreed, however, is the major contenders on the western hemisphere, the Universal Rights Society and the Entropy Alliance.

Coupled with the re-discovery of magic in the late 20th century, the war escalated to global conflict. Millions died after the initial conflict, and the resulting mass executions that followed resulted in a global population of 3 billion.

This is the story of Varuian, the first city to be beset by the conflict.


On Magic:
Scholars have always debated on the fundamental function that makes magic possible. Though this answer is likely decades away, this is what they know about magic at the moment.

Magic is Seperated into 10 elements, though only 8 have been confirmed at the moment. These elements are:
Flame
Mount
Wave
Gust
Holy
Shade
Life
Death
Duration
Distance

On War-
Though war was primarily based of ranged weapons in the late 20th century, by 1990 most governments were employing forces with enchanted weapons, often melee, to do direct combat with enemy forces. The 6 general weapon types are:

Blade
Lance
Halberd
Gun
Bow
Soul (Think powered up hand-to-hand combat)

So this is some sort of alternate history? A world similar to ours, but where magic was discovered in the 1900s? Interesting.
