In a world without villains or those who oppose the law, what lets that world stay unbalanced - ordered but with no progression? No new literature. Let's say the world had magic in it, but was just like ours in form And so we follow the End Times of such a world and the start of chaos. We begin in the Technological Magic Era.
The Beginning
This is The National News Center. Late in the day, today a meteor appeared to land in the Amazon forest causing the forest to catch fire causing a massive reduction in the world's highest oxygen producers. Now onto the massive explosion in western Russia which occurred when some Magic Users tried to combine technology with their magic resulting in five deaths and three injuries. In the most recent of topics, Global Warming is a Worldwide threat that will cause over a Billion deaths in the next decade if we don't do our best to stop it.
In the middle of what used to be a dense grove of trees that are now ash and embers is a lone creature that gets up on two legs. It is glowing red hot, covered in what seems to be blue flames, and has skin that is charcoal black. It moves toward the few green plants left, but they wither and burn before it can even get a few feet from them. It lets out a frustrated groan, continuing to go towards all plants nearby, but still they burn, and as it gets more frustrated the fire surrounding it grows bigger. It then suddenly touches the ground which gets scorched within seconds of being near it. The thing then tries to pick up a rock about half of its size and rips it out of the ground which gets completely scorched from the heat emanating from the being. It then hisses with anger and it grows a brilliant red for a few seconds before calming down.
It continues to touch everything around it, experimenting to see if anything won't burn from its touch. It continues on East, eventually coming across sand which turns to glass after a few seconds which then gets scorched if it stays on any longer and it turns a brilliant yellow while running on the beach. It eventually sees the blue waves hitting the beach and approaches them carefully, but it need not be careful because the water turns into salt and steam which the thing plays in delightfully turning a brilliant yellow then it starts to get dark and it turns a brilliant purple and soon something shines into its face, and it runs away damping the light it produces quickly. It runs as quickly as it can and runs into this creature shivering and crying in the forest it reaches out towards it, but it quickly flees, and Our creature glows a bright blue and begins to finally cry. Everything dies when near me or runs away and hides where I cannot reach it.
This is The National News Center. We have a striking new story. A new magical creature was spotted in the wilderness by our News helicopter, but it ran away from the spotlight. To the driver of the helicopter, we go. "It saw me and turned a bright purple when it was yellow before and it looked like it was made out of flames so It…". We now go on to the story about magic creature watchers and see that they have been intently watching the great Rocs, a birdlike creature that is as big as a car and confined to most national parks with mountain Ranges. Now back to our most important topic Global Warming has increased the Average Temperature on our planet to a whopping 19 Degrees Celsius so get the New Artic Cooling system Made by our very own wizards with a 1-year lasting spell in the small compartilized box.
It wakes up and thinks maybe I should name myself how about Niak Yah. That sounds right, Niak thinks forming the word withs its flaming mouth coming out in a hissing syllabic sound. Niak goes and walks around and thinks what would happen to a rock if I held it for a while so Niak goes towards the nearest rock and holds it and after a couple minutes it starts to turn into a bright orange gooey substance and Niak flares a bright yellow.
Niak then drops what is left of the rock and continues to pick up and hold things for a long time but nothing new happens so Niak stays still and thinks about what to do. The ground beneath it slowly turns to lava and Niak begins to sink into the lava it created, surprised Niak sinks into it and it doesn't hurt and feels nice on Naik's skin so it just sits in it for a while then gets out and runs around experimenting even more.
This is The National News Center. We have found a pocket of lava not far off from where we saw the creature but back to Regularly scheduled news after the announcement that the Average Temp has increased another two degrees and it is now the middle of summer so don't be worried it will cool down soon. In the Background you can hear "Why are you not letting me report the Fricking fact that I saw the thing swimming around in the lava like it was water and the fact that is very presence is what's causing the fires are you afraid of the public backlash when the M.A.P learns of the people your are hiring to get rid of it."
"Sir we are not hiring anyone and the governments have prohibited us from reporting on the creature you saw. We are sorry if killing it seems harsh but it is destroying our environment which was already mostly destroyed but the Governments didn't even tell us they were hunting it.
Niak was wandering around when something that stung a little struck it. Niak took he shiny thing out of its fiery skin and looked at it while it proceeded to not melt and Niak glowed a bright yellow hoping this meant that there were other things that didn't get scorched, melted or deformed from Niaks presence but soon the thing turned red and was easily bendable. Then Niak saw a creature covered in a huge bulky skin moving towards it.
Niak started to approach it and it backed up cautiously and then raised up this arm thing that was hanging on its chest and a huge silvery thing flew out of that third arm of that thing and hit Niak it stung so Niak approached the creature which started to flee when other silvery things begin to hit Niak, so Niak ran away.
This is Fugitive Radio. We have heard some very interesting rumors about the government hiring some thugs to attack the newfound creature with titanium darts because apparently it is killing our environment and exacerbating global warming. Also the Government apparently thinks this thing's skin is between 1700- 2700 degrees Celsius because just on contact with its flames the sand on the beaches melted or so they think and the Government guessed that this is not even its max temperature, Fugitive Radio Signing off.
Niak heard the things following it they were tenacious, and it was hard to lose them even though Niak ran quite fast and was leaving fires behind it the things kept going on steady or at least one of them was keeping track of it making sure that Niak was always at least trackable, but Niak just kept running farther and farther without any attempt to even cover its tracks. Eventually Niak got quite tired and stopped to rest.
Fugitive Radio Back on We managed to hack in and found out they are going to use Nomex protective gear on the people they send to deal with the creature but guess what the kevlar suits they were wearing before were starting to burn near it and not even exposed to its flames meaning this things heat is superbly high and the fact that they have to wear something that can withstand a 1092 degree Celsius temp is amazing. Creature lovers you will love this fact it seemed to be friendly and openly tried to approach the mercs hired to. Beep Overriding all your regular news programs.

Niak was running again because Niak was getting chased by something so it decided to move as far as it could from the place where niak had gotten stung by those strange creatures that should have been friendly as Niak was showing no sign of any kind of violence or anything. Niak no longer heard of anything besides the natural sounds of creatures moving about and giving their raucous calls which sometimes startled Niak into jumping causing everything above Niak to catch fire Niak then looked up and saw all the tree beaches above it that had caught fire and Niak was sad when it though about how dark the forest would like after it burned so Niak called to the flames asking them to come to it instead of burning the wood and strangely enough it did. Watching the flame drip off the branches onto its arms Niak felt energized when it heard something make a sound at it and Niak almost jumped but instead turned around to see what it was.
This is The National News Center The government has decided to enlighten the public about the new creature they have been studying which they have decided to name a Flammen Propinquus which I know is a very long name but it is now this certain creatures name and they also say that this creature is extremely deadly and has caused Global Warming to Accelerate and back to more interesting news the Tornado that went through Northern California has caused billions of dollars in Property damage but has only caused 4,000 deaths calculated so far. In other news we have a new serial Killer on the loose who is most likely going to be found soon enough. That is the end of our program for now.
The thing that had startled Niak was like those other two-legged things and had this bulky yellowish skin which didn't catch fire within about five yards but this one of the creatures wasn't trying to hurt Niak which was good but Niak hissed in menace making guttural sounds toward it. Niak then heard it make sounds but there was no movement on the face of the creature. It was black and reflective so Niak startled and backed up a bit. In our language the human being said "hullo how are you doin?" but Niak did not understand it. The human kept trying to communicate with Niak but Niak couldn't understand so it pointed at a grey thing which the human said rock with the human teaching it words it eventually was able to understand and pronounce words with a slight extra hissing sound. The human left every night and came back every morning to teach but eventually the human didn't come back so Niak left.
This is MCD Radio (magical creature department) this creature the flammen has an intelligence almost equal to our own it started to understand what I have been saying simply a week after I started teaching it which means that it might have an even higher intelligence than us humans but sadly I couldn't get it to understand that I would be leaving for a couple of days which means it will probably have moved on but I have gotten it to understand the basics of our language.
It also has a huge amount of magical control over fire that it seems to be experimenting with and with the equipment I have I have found that it radiates less heat when happy but if it is sad its temperature will increase by several hundred degrees and if it is scared its temperature will be at its maximum 2700*C and its lowest when it's angry or happy is 1000*C. I have also recorded it talking which it pronounces with a long hissing noise due to the fact it's made of fire this is amazing I also have seen that if it stays on any rock too long the rock will turn to lava and I think the blood of this creature is magma but I didn't get the chance to because its flames were too hot so we could capture it instead of killing it like the government says we have to and with all the heat is produced it could be used to make a heat generator. Talk more about this later.
Niak was wandering again and came upon a area where the forest had been cleared out in a huge area and found all sorts of things in this area and the things had handles made of wood and the head of the wooden stick was metal and would melt after a few seconds so Niak followed the huge black thing that seemed to lead out of here and when Niak stepped on the stuff it started to melt and bubble quite quickly it was fun to play in and mess with but the stuff also stuck to Niaks skin making Niak feel filthy. So Niak climbed out of the pit of stuff when Niak saw a huge amount of fire ahead so Niak ran toward it and called the fire to it and when the fire came to Niak it cleansed it of the black sticky stuff. Niak followed the path again but at a further distance then before so he wouldn't get into that stuff which stuck everywhere but could be gotten off with cleansing flames. Niak saw in the distance after 20 minutes of following the black path saw a bunch of square objects clustered and spread out a bit all near one another. Niak eventually got close to these huts which had no entrance that Niak could find and that would start burning as soon as Niak got near.
