Read, and learn more.

Midgard

It does little more than 27 years Midgard passed the moment of greatest suffering in its history. Controlled by religious orders who wanted to expand their faith, nations went to war. In the beginning, there was a brief and localized conflict, however, the battles have spread everywhere for decades. Hand in hand with them also walked hunger crops burned, suffering from disease, cold for the homeless, the fear of uncertainty and certainty of fear.


To finish this scenario of horrors, an alliance was formed. The magicians of all countries and from different races came together. Initially, they attacked the weakest point of the religious faithful. Convincing them to give up the worship of the gods, the power of clerics and priests has declined. The promise of a better future led many to support these measures. To ensure that peace came earlier, the Mages Guild was founded. With it, the exchange of the arcane secrets has increased as the number of apprentices. So the mages became numerous and powerful. Moreover, they formed an army to enforce peace treaties fair.

With the end of the conflict, the Mages Guild has not rested. For peace is maintained, they must remain on guard, watching over possible expansionist rulers and other offenders. Maybe it costs a few lives, but all peace has its price. Recently, the gods to mortals told that the world will end because of the wizards. Is it true?
