The Story

In the world of Averia, the Mages' Guilds have been able to maintain control the world through the commoners reliance on their magical abilities to perform most tasks. In recent times, the commoners have been able to produce a powerful energy source of their own and have begun the shift to make use of their new found power.

In a desperate attempt to maintain relevancy in the world of Averia, the Mages' Guilds have sought to outlaw this power source from the commoners but after failed negotiations, they have launched a violent coup to overthrow the major city of Mythcross. After the governor of Mythcross was killed in the struggle for the city, this sparked a revolt amongst the commoners all over Averia to dismantle the Mages' Guilds.

The world of Averia is now embroiled in a civil war between the Mages' Guilds and the Common Populace.
