In a moment of profound sorrow, Milton descended to Novus Mundus once more. He appeared
before the warring factions, his divine presence freezing time and halting the chaos. Milton spoke to the people of his world, not as a god, but as their creator—a being who had given them magic, free will, and the chance to forge their own path.
But now, seeing the destruction wrought by their ambition, Milton made his final gift. He shattered the Forge of Destiny, scattering its remnants across the world so that no one faction could ever control it again. He then imbued the land with a new kind of magic—Soul Magic, tied to the essence of the people themselves. This magic could not be wielded for power or domination; it could only be used to heal, create, and bring balance.
With his final act, Milton disappeared from Novus Mundus, leaving his creation to grow and evolve without his direct influence. The war ended, and the people, humbled by Milton's final gift, began the long process of rebuilding their world.
The era of kings, mages, and relics had come to an end. A new age dawned, one of unity, where magic was used not for conquest, but for the betterment of all.
Milton's legacy endured, not in the form of rulers or artifacts, but in the hearts of the people—those who chose to create a better world with the power they had been given.
