The Heretical Mage

Imagine a world, not just any world but one of magic, swordsmanship, forging and crafting all combined to seek the truth of the world. Then watch it burn around you. Just for it to happen time and time again empires rise to unite the world, to make humanity prosper and then fall and divide again. Now the winds of change howl for a new beginning, a new order. Watch as the world descends into chaos, factions gather, nations unite, faiths clash and and worlds burn. My name is Vaal and I shall rule the world or it's ashen remains.
