Arcana Officer Academy​

​

Since the beginning of the world's foundation, the world has been divided into those who could use magic and those who could not magic. Beings who can use, command and control magic are called Mages. Those who do not have magic are called Nomage. Those who can use magic have an edge in life compared to those who cannot use magic. Because of that, there was much discrimination towards Nomage with the Mage often looking down on Nomage thinking that they were better. The discrimination was more noted in the more powerful mages and the royal family that they belonged to.

That all changed 50 years ago when the power shift changed for the Nomage. This change was done by a man named Thomas Edison. Thomas Edison was a Nomage but he created new technologies using sources of magic to power it. He called it Mana Tech. With Mana Tech, the Nomages were now able to use magic just like the Mages. Having faced discrimination from the Mages for so long, the Nomages declared war against the Mages particularly those of the ruling royal family.

The war resulted in a split in the country. The Nomage were able to drive the Mages out and establish their domain. They named their domain Utopia. While the Mages called their domain, Arcana. With the Nomages hunting down magical creatures for their source of magic, they continue to improve their Mana tech. They made an even bigger breakthrough when they discovered that if they could kill a Mage, they could extract their magic and turn it into weapons. This further increased their weapon development to a point where the Nomage could use magic even though they were not born with it. It has been rumored that after killing a Mage, the NoMage can take their magical abilities and the spells that they learned throughout their lifetime and use it as their own.

With the toll increasing in number on both sides, the 12 ruling families of Arcana decided to create an Academy to train soldiers so that they could join the war. They enlisted all children with great magical abilities and potential to attend the academy. Little do they know that NoMage has learned about this academy and started to implant themselves within the academy to spy on them and learn their magical secrets to foster and improve their technology.

Xadia WhiteLeaf​

It was early evening. The sun was setting in the courtyard, and a large crowd of young adults was standing around. They were either talking or socializing. Most are meeting each other for the first time. What is distinguishable among the young adults was that they were all wearing a school uniform, so almost everyone matched in clothing. Among the crowd of young adults stood a young man. He was brown skinned, and his head was shaved. What he lacked in hair on the top of his head, he made up for with his full grown beard. Many will think that he is older, but he is, in fact, still young. He was 23 years old. He is also not the tallest guy. He was only 5'5 while most other men are usually 5'8. He was one of the few who stood alone and did not talk to anyone. His name was Xadia WhiteLeaf.

He looked upon the students. He watched and observed them as they socialized. His arms were crossed across his chest as he looked forward. He glanced at the podium where the professors would be coming in to address the first years of the Arcana Officer Academy. The Arcana Officer Academy was created to train officers or soldiers for the Arcana army. They were currently at war with another domain called Utopia. The domain consisted of mostly Nomages as they were finally fed up with how they were being treated by Mages for lack of magical ability. But now, some of the Mages decided to side with Utopia as they were unsatisfied with the ruling royal family. The 10 Royal families that ruled Arcana, with the Solvaris family leading the other families and Arcana.

As for Xadia, he was with Utopia. He is a Nomage, but he was able to sneak in secretly and become a first-year student at the Arcana Officer Academy. He was a spy for Utopia. But he was not the only spy. There were other Nomage here at the academy. He knew them, but in an effort not to bring attention to themselves, they agreed that it was best that they didn't know each other. And they were not completely alone. At the Arcana Officer Academy, there is a professor that was for their cause. It is partly because of that professor that they were able to sneak in. However, they do not know who that professor is at the academy that is helping them. Their identity is a secret. And it is probably for the best.

Xadia looked at the first-year students again. Enemies. They were all his enemies. He was behind enemy lines, and one wrong move would result in his execution. Xadia looked over to the stage. They were informed that the professors would be gathering on the stage where they would be evaluated with a magic orb. The magic orb is supposed to measure the student's magical capacity as well as determine what their magical affinity is. Xadia knew that since he was Nomage, his magical capacity would be low, and his magical affinity might be undetermined.
