EFFORIA WORLD AT WAR
He hasn't had the best life, in fact, some would argue that his life couldn't have been worse, but there's still hope, even for a nihilist.

Here one can conjure flames with words and summon thunderclouds with a shout, but it's not all fantasia and ecstasy. The world seemed peaceful enough, but as he learns more and more. He realizes everything he sees is a facade, and what's truly underneath is a civilization built on blood and war. In fact, the whole world is in a state of war, fueling the coming of Ragnarök.
A Thing Out of Time
I had been told I had obligations and responsibilities, but the nature of which I had to commit to, was never explained to me, as such I didn't know better.
The 'obligation' I had, was attending a birthday party. It was the shared birthday of Jane and Sarah. Apparently, they were born on the same day. As such, my endeavor of learning how to properly conduct myself in a situation of conflict, was cut short for the gratification of two people I hadn't seen in years.

The importance of the event dawned on me multiple times, as I gained more information. It wasn't going to just be held anywhere, it was going to be held at the capital, inside the Shattered Palace.
