One thousand years ago, the War of the Magi nearly rent the world asunder. Desperate to gain ground, humans attempted to take control of the Gods' forbidden magic and use it towards their own ends.
But magic was not meant to be controlled by fickle and flawed humans - a race consumed by greed and petty ambitions. Indeed, at the twilight of the war, the Gods decided that magic was not meant for this world at all, and made a pact with each other to seal their essences away. They told the survivors of the decimation to uphold one final decree:
"We must never be woken."
But even as the Gods turned themselves to stone, sealing their magic away, they had underestimated mankind's lust for power. While the Gods slept, the humans were busy hunting down every rumor, every trace of magic that remained in their world, collecting it and using it for their own ends.
War began anew, with the Empire of Gestahl threatening to tip the world out of Balance and plunge it into Ruin.
