Chapter 30 - Chapter 29: The Return of the Kings

With the Ascendant Order now in possession of artifacts from the Forge of Destiny, the kings and nobles of Novus Mundus realized that their reigns were in jeopardy. The commoners had magic, the mages had power, and now the Ascendant Order wielded relics that could reshape the world. Desperate to regain control, the remaining kings united under a single banner, forming the Imperial Dominion.

 

The Imperial Dominion declared war on the Ascendant Order, the Arcane Circle, and the rebellious commoners. Their goal was simple: to restore the old order, with kings ruling and magic under their control. Led by King Valerius III, son of Valerius II, the Imperial Dominion marched across the land, crushing rebellions and claiming cities.

But the kings were not the only ones who sought to use the Forge's power. Secret factions within the Ascendant Order began to splinter off, each seeking to claim the relics for themselves, and soon the Order was fractured.
