The Last of Us

prologue

If you're reading this than that means my spell worked. That's great news. Well, not so much, because that probably means I'm dead.. Anyways my name's rex, it's Latin for something important but it's been so many years, I can't remember what my mother said it was. See I'm originally from earth, but when I was seventeen I made the mistake of trying my hand at magic. Turns out what I thought was a simple telekinesis spell was actually a portal spell. Instead of moving my basketball across the floor, I was ripped out of my home, and into a new world. Little to my knowledge at the time when you preform a portal spell, it desintegrates everything and everyone in a mile radius. So my beautiful mother, I mentioned earlier was a casualty in my lust for magic. This new world I found myself in was very similar to earth. Matter of fact it is earth, just in a different realm. It gets confusing, I know. The short story is this world ( infernum ) is full of magic and mythical creatures. There are four main types of magic, elemental, physical, spiritual and necromancy. Now even though there are four main types of magic, a person can learn others. The list of other types is pretty lenthy so I'll just name the ones that's important for this story.  There's illumination (which is magic of light), zoolingualism (the magic of speaking to and controlling animals) and the most rarest of all planes walking (walking between realms without using a spell ). From this point on when I refer to this world I'm going to be calling it infernum it's easier that way. So on infernum when you reach eighteen you are taken to the temple and a group of magicians with the power of spiritual magic unlocks your magic abilities. Unlocking magic abilities takes a tremendous about of magic that's why it has to be a group of magicians, if a single magician tried it would kill him/her. So being on infernum and not being able to get back to Earth I lived here. On my eighteenth birthday I went to the temple and my magic abilities was unlocked. I'm not sure if it was because I'm from Earth or if I'm special but I didn't just unlock one of the magical abilities I was able to access all of them. Except the one I truly wanted, planeswalking. If I could have unlocked planeswalking I could have returned home, I could have seen my friends,my home and my family. Soon after my abilities was unlocked a warlord and his army conquered infernum and put an end to practicing magic. Everyone except for his army of course. That's when everything got bad. My group of friends and I went into hiding with the people from our community. That's where our story truly begins. Hopefully I've stopped the warlord by the time you read this. If not, there is a way for you to defeat him, but I can't just come out and say it that'd be to easy for his minions. I pray you won't have to witness his evil in person, but if you do I'm so sorry.
