World-building

The story happens in the Omohisap continent. The continent was conquered by Phenis the great and for more than thousands of years, the human race was living in it, however, they never lived peacefully, conflicts for the throne and the three sacred stones tore apart their united force, and now as Usehn the king of Terragrand said in 103 A. I ( 103 years after the great independence ) :

" The life as we know, will perish and along with it our morals and chivalry, the chivalry our father Phenis the great thaught us, we killed our father, and now our children and grandchildren shall repent for our sins "

The map of the world is limited to the Omohisap continent as it is the furthest point ever reached by explorers, there are also many unseen

places in the continent itself. In the history of the human expeditions which began in 1 A.I there are 43 maps, the most famous ones are:

-Lucresa: a famous traveler who became the sign of strong and independent women, she was responsible for discovering the Artic Bay, the kingdom of Osburg, and the devil's islands ( Diabulo Insulam ).

-Albert Frankenstein: Also a mathematician and biologist, he was one of the brilliant minds of the prosperous era ( 1 to 20 A.I ), his

theories are the base and fandom of today's technology. He discovered the south lands, Shallabai, and theorized the existence of the independent islands and a whole other continent behind them.

The map has two versions, the old and the new, it constantly changed because of wars and conflicts between the kingdoms, some kingdoms appeared, some of them became empires and some others perished.

The latest version contains five major lands:

-Nuabya nation: was the great kingdom of Nuabya before the rebellion, it consists of many lands that are ruled independently, however, every ruler is called a duke and not a king. The title of the king remain for the descendant of the royal family and if a war from neighboring kingdoms started, all the dukes must join their forces to protect the king.

-Empire of Maunia: A great empire, has a great bloody history of killing and conquering, was the major enemy of Nuabya but now things are calm in it, no one can know what's going on inside of it as it closed its borders. Also, no other country dares to launch a war against it as it is known for having the best swordmasters and fighters of all time. Maybe they are preparing for another conquest,

who knows?

-South lands: Multiple lands with different leaders, they are called the barbarians by other countries as they are the less civilized people. However, they became very coordinated lately for mysterious reasons.

-Shallabai: The land of wisdom and magic, it contains the first international human university ever, where students can learn about algebra, optica, alchemy, religious studies, and Aether. It has the Knowledge Citadel which is the greatest library of all time where all mankind's history is recorded. It is ruled by the supreme council.

-Independent islands: Travellers also call them the shadow islands, no one knows what is inside of them because from all the people in the history of mankind who entered, none managed to come back. The last king who tried to conquer those mysterious lands was the king of Necromancia, he vanished all along with his army and his kingdom was conquered eventually. From that day it stayed

as the independent islands.
