Simeon: In the year of 1748, Erang's Forest had proven to be King Oskar's most formidable opponent. For it is in the thicket of the pine that the unknown lives. He grew tired within the confines of the forest, halting the city of Ravenwood from further progress. It was until the council devised a plan to burn the edges of the trees in a controlled manner. Yet fire is fickle, impulsive at times. And in the inferno's wake, many creatures had perished as swiftly as the flames came. In the King's desire for expansion, he underestimated one factor... The Fae are unforgiving creatures. To be human meant to give into the whims of the supernatural, but to threaten a King with a curse? A crime that required punishment in which many failed to deliver. Several years had passed, fracturing relations between Ravenwood and Innisgreen. The Serpent King had grown restless. It wasn't until 1755 that Ethren Reyes provided a solution. He called it Hexerei. Witchcraft that could remove the very thing that had brought misfortune to the King's life. With a quick gesture of the hand and a simple incantation- Simeon and Ethren: Fluch Brechen. Simeon: The seven year curse was over. Throughout the entirety of history, a supernatural's ability to channel magic had be something of a dream for Man. Dreams transformed into reality, power that demanded protection. Guidance was necessary if the Hexe were to safely step into the world and thus the Empyrean was formed. A sanctuary under the Crown. Every aspiring Hexe must declare themselves by the age of sixteen. Practicing Hexerei without formal training is strictly forbidden. Unlike innate sorcery, witchcraft requires intensive study, learning the components of a spell by rote. The more difficult the spell, the more it requires. Any missteps were proven to have disastrous consequences. While the Empyrean is still at it's most earliest stage, each generation of sages has sworn an oath to safeguard the integrity of magic, crafted by Man. Ah, a visitor. One who can provide better insight on our history lesson. Have I omitted anything, Lady Blackheart? Violetta: You have not, Professor.
