In the beginning,the world we lived in was peaceful and flourishing in all aspects. I personally would have loved to live in that reality but this was shattered when 'they' came.if we had known that they existed earlier,we wouldn't have got a lot of casualties
It was only until a year had past when the world saw the first of their kind. It had a human like appearance but what stood out the most was it's black long horns that protruded out of it's forehead. The world was in a total mess, these creatures would wreck havoc wherever they went. As this catastrophe went on, these beasts which humanity named demons evolved to the point where some developed wings and even means means to communicate with humans.Six years past liked this and humanities population reduced from eight billion natives to two billion natives . This chaos continued until a group of six people stood up for humanity. Those people had abilities unknown to man.
The world as we knew it had changed during those six years. According to the geographers, all continents in the world moved and joined forming one huge super continent. This was called the Great Astravault. Mana made its way into the world . Humans got special abilities like super strength,fast reflexes,teleportation etc. Normal animals became savage beasts
If things couldn't get worse, more mystical creatures came .If one was well versed with anime and novels,they could identify these creatures. Humans had got more anxious thinking that they were going to get extinct but to their surprise, these creatures pronounced peace . This gave humanity another spell of hope as these creatures taught humans how to use mana .This aided the six heros of humanity who came to be called the six hexa
Humanity with the help of the mystical creatures began to turn the war to their favour . After a bitter battle for seven years, humanity finally got on equal footing as the demons but this didn't come without sacrifices. During this campaign is when was when Luistern, the leader of the six hexa sacrificed him self for the sake of humanity's safety. He directly used his mana core to form a great wall made of obsidian that surrounded the whole of the human domain. These walls were called the Great walls of Stern. In that way until now the balance has yet to be tipped. The remaining Hexas decided to give the entirety of their knowledge to humanity through manuals and arts before they passed away of old age.
It was on November 16th 2030 when humans gained back the peace they had long lost.From that day onwards,humanity's way of naming years changed to the system of Astras. In simpler terms, every Astra is 2000 years so we were in Astra 1.30 . The numbers after the decimal point meant the number of years that have passed in that Astra
