The Four Kingdoms
All magical beings and creatures, those we know and those we will soon meet, originate from this ancient other-dimension land, including wizards and Fae, a race of winged human size people.
Four separatist kingdoms maintain control: Calabiyau, home to twelve distinctly different Fae clans, each with their own magic; the Banshee Kingdom, home to Banshees, a rogue thirteenth Fae Clan; the Bardic Kingdom, home to wizards and Bards; and Mystalia, the secret home to society's discarded "Imperfects" that is located in an area called The Mists, a savage dead-land of killer beasts and gnarled trees.
Calabiyau is the oldest and the largest of the four kingdoms. The "Source," a powerful vortex where all magic originates, is located in Sacred Garden within the wall of Calabiyau Castle. No one kingdom owns the Source. The Calabiyan Council, however, controls its access. The "Gift," the world's fragile, albeit powerful life-enabling spell, can only be deployed at the Source. |
