Introduction

Thousands of years ago, the art of magic was sealed and forgotten by the majority of the human race. This knowledge eventually scattered all over the world, manipulated and twisted to fit the stories humans told. By the 21st century, the word "magic" was only found in children's stories. Only little kids believed in fantasy. Adults scoffed at it.

But the truth is that magic does exist. It exists in every one of us. We only have to make effort to find it. Still, in a world so advanced in science and technology, hardly anyone cares about magic and its counterparts. The art of magic was slowly but surely forgotten.

In ancient times untold, the inhabitants of Earth sealed their knowledge of magic in eight Tomes. Five of these Tomes taught an aspiring mage-to-be the very fundamental basics of magic. The remaining three, however, would gift to anyone who learnt its secrets unimaginable power.

Of the original eight Tomes, only five now remain hidden, somewhere in this world, still waiting to be opened and read. The five Tomes speak of the immense power of elemental manipulation; another three tell of the more mysterious and unexplored realms of magic. The existence of these Tomes has long been forgotten, and it seemed unlikely that they would be recalled or found.

But fate decreed otherwise...
