The King of Lust
Before the Hundred Year War, during the Rise of Magic, when the lands of both Xonthian and Xecu’tran were secure from the wrath of the Dark Army, ruled a king of ill morality. King Geert the fourth, of Xecu’tran, lived and ruled Cettera with an iron fist. His lust for all things pleasurable became his downfall later in life and would forever change the course of time itself.
A time of magic empowered the world. Classes of magic were developed to help scholars and sorcerers study new and powerful spells. Some of these magic classes were illusion, enchantment and divination. While rarer classes such as elemental or ethereal classes, were only seen in the elder races such as Elves, dwarves and Atticatten. This did not mean humans were incapable of the ability to use such power however. Humans learned to use the schools of magic displayed by the Fire Isle Mages during the Great Invasion. The inherent ability to use these schools became less potent in them however and became a rare skill among humans.
There was no school outside the Elves forest that taught other races how to use their abilities, so corrupt magic grew, and was handed down from one generation to another.
Soon magic user populations grew and reached its panicle around 534 AX. Many of the humans that lived to see adult hood and could use spells vowed to fight in the Roc Pass war. Many of those mages were given a special place among the nobility of Xonthian City after the war, while others took residence with the Gate’har Clerics. Some of the mages left however, to seek guidance from the Elves in their abilities and to learn more. One of these mages, moved to Cettera and became the advisor to the King there until he died. This advisors name was Caedmon Enid.
King Geert took a wife in early 528 AX where she died nearly a year later giving birth to a still born child, killing both his wife.
