Many years ago, it was told that Britannia was ruled by magic. Witches and sorcerers ruled the land. They were the most powerful beings to ever exist. Their magic ruled over everything and everyone, humans, and animals alike.

But as one power continued in strength, another grew to match it. The humans.

Five powerful men rebelled against the magic folk, or The Orders, as many referred to them, and with millions on their side, their power and need for power grew. A great war took place.

The war raged on for years, killing thousands in its path, and with neither side backing down.

That was until the humans gathered a secret weapon.

You see, it was told that Lady Angelique Harlen, princess of the Witch Queen, Maria Harlen, fell in love with a human. But not just any human. Angelique fell in love with Edward Dál Riata one of the five powerful men in charge of the revolution.

The witch princess was weak to her loves requests and gave him information that no human had ever learned before.

The humans used this knowledge and defeated The Orders, and after years of raging war, Britannia was finally at peace.

The 5 powerful men split up Britannia into 5 great Kingdoms.

Kingdom Klary, after George Klary.
Kingdom Glenn after Harrison Glenn.
Kingdom Hairmen after Luis Hairmen.
Kingdom Larenta after Henry Larenta.
And finally,
Kingdom Dál Riata after Edward Dál Riata.

The humans were cruel to The Orders. They tortured, banished and killed millions of the magic folk until there was only one last known witch.

Angelique Harlen, Princess of The Order.

The King of Dál Riata married her, still deeply in love, despite the things done to her family.

But gradually the King became threatened by his wife's growing power. It went straight to his head until it drove him insane, though not before she had given birth to a son and then a pair of twin girls.

As only one parent was of magic blood, only the first born girl possessed any magical power.
Once the King heard of the birth, the insane King decided that he no longer trusted his magical wife and murdered the Queen but only one of his newly born daughters, mistakingly only the youngest one.

You see he was unaware there was two. Before the King even heard of the successful birth, the Queen had given the Eldest daughter of the twin babies, named Genevieve, to her most beloved servant and sent them away into hiding.

Unknown to the king, his oldest daughter managed to escape with the servant and was taken far away from harm.

The daughter thrived and married a man whom she had a daughter with. The daughter was taught her magical ways.

But soon after the birth, Genevieve passed away from an illness.

The daughter grew up stronger than ever before, but used her power selfishly, to gain whatever she wanted. As her power grew so did the knowledge of her power.

The King heard of it and ordered men to kill her and any offspring. The young woman was killed, along with the two sons she bore.

But as luck would have it, she did have a daughter and had sent her away to a trusted friend as soon as she was born.

The young girl grew up with her mothers trusted friend, unaware of her magical powers.

However, the baby wasn't safe. Late in the night, the young baby girl was stolen. The trusted friend wept and wept, and looked everywhere for her, but the baby was never found.

It was rumored there was still magical people living among us. The Orders were weak, but the secret society was growing. Hidden from the King, The last of The Orders stole the baby, knowing she still possessed great power.

However, after the great war with the Vikings, the baby was lost again...

This is a tale told among the remaining magic folk. Whether you believe it or not, The Order does.

Where is the magical baby now you ask? The old tale has an old prophecy on this.

It says, "Look for her where you least expect, for she will be the downfall of the human's reign."
