Thousands of years ago when the land of Anera was still young and people still lived simple lives in villages, people were yet still very curious. They often thought of new ways to ease their work or make things better. They had recently utilised water and wind to mill grains and were able to build small homes with thatched roofs. But they are short before a breakthrough: The discovery of the arcane arts, something that would change the lands forever. In the village of Esa is where it all begins, after a villager had used inner power to create fire. With this new ability, they hope to discover more regarding this ability and maybe it will become a new way of life. Neighboring villages are still cautious of this discovery however as pre-existing materials aren't used to make something new.

Esa: Esa is a small village on a creek. It consists of twelve small thatched roof houses, a mill using the water from the creek, a small storehouse, a shrine and a longhouse for village meetings. The village is located in a clearing of a forest surrounded by minor hills. The village is still rather young and hopes to attract more settlers. The next villages are at least two days away by foot. The area is peaceful with rarely any dangerous animals, no bandits and it is self governing. The land the village claims is the size of the forest itself and the villagers are free to use this land. Esa has a village militia just in case, equipped with bows and spears.

Anera: Anera is the continent where Esa is located. The exact boundaries of it is unknown at this time. The villagers themselves only know their forest and surrounding villages and that when leaving the forest, mountains are visible on the horizon. The climate is mild with mild winters and warm summers.
