War...
War had scarred the very foundations of the earth, the claws of death gnawing away at the fabrics of humanity invitingly as people were being slew and killed by the thousands. It was the Era of Dragons and it was those same creatures that have held a dominant grip over the once beautiful continent of Earth Land for countless centuries. Since anybody can remember, humans were always good for the dragons and slaves for their own twisted amusements. The creatures had all but ruled with an iron fist as rebellions were often crushed rapidly, and humans were constantly put in their place by their draconic overlords. Everybody knew that it was a fools errand to even try and stand up to their draconic oppressors as death would be swift, and it was this that you would be greeted with should anybody stand up against the chaos. As the years went by, small pockets of human civilisation had risen up from the shackles of slavery to construct grand cities of marble and stone, to forming small trivial communities in the vast woodlands of the continent. The continent split into many different kingdoms, such as Stella, Caelum, Peregrande the largest, and Fiore the most beautiful. It was in Fiore, where the Dragon King Festival or rather, the Dragon War, would begin.
The war started with small uprisings from all corners of Earth Land. As time went by, more and more pockets of humanity had discovered the art of magic under the tutelage of a single unknown source, and began to revel in its power. As more and more humans began to imbue themselves with Ethernano and in turn train themselves as mages, they thought it was time to take the fight to their oppressors, their slavers and their lords, and fight for the one thing they all wanted so dearly...
...Freedom.
After a full two years of fighting, large battles continuously broke out all across the continent, Earth Land being one large battleground and an even larger crumbled ruin, mankind didn't stand a chance. Crushed at every battle, every siege, the dragons always came out on top. The bulk of cities humanity had worked so hard to build were destroyed by a mere beat of a dragons wings, their armies carved out with a mere scratch of a dragons claw. Everything seemed hopeless as humanity soon discovered that normal magic barely scratched the scales of these gigantic beasts. The armies of mankind knew that their strength paled in comparison to the strength and superiors of the dragons. Whilst some continued to fight, some even swore fealty to the dragons, and fought alongside them. Humanity thought themselves defeated, however, the war was just about to begin.
Much like any conflict, there were sympathisers to both sides. And as some of the humans saw cause in the dragons reason for rule, there were also some dragons that saw wisdom in the humans side of things, and thus fought alongside them. These dragons came up with a plan as to how they would be able to tip the war in humanities favour. They decided that they would amount their majesty onto the human race and teach them something most valuable. The art to kill a dragon. Dragon Slayer Magic.
It was with this, that the war could finally begin.

Five years into the events of the Dragon King Festival, Dragon Slayers increased in number, the strongest of them leading villages and some even embarking out on their own or in small groups, helping any they can find; fighting for freedom like the rest. Even still nobody is truly safe. Settlements come and go, people live and die, and it is seemingly just an endless cycle. The war, currently, is at it's height. And this is where the story begins.
