Arcanael Kingdom is the global epicenter of magical power and knowledge in Eldoria. Its society is highly academic, with political and social influence tied directly to magical mastery. The kingdom is ruled by King Callum Arcanael, whose Magic Type is Earth Magic and whose specialities are Royal Geometrics and Warding. His wife, Queen Isolde Arcanael, possesses Time Magic, with specialities in Knowledge Divination and Temporal Preservation.

They have two heirs. Their firstborn, Crowned Princess Elowen Arcanael, wields Aether Magic, specializing in Energy Weaving and Structural Enchantment. Her younger brother, Prince Orion Arcanael, practices Kinetic Magic, with specialities in Accelerated Combat and Telekinetic Siege.

Within the Arcanael Kingdom stands Arcanum Magicia Academy.

Arcanum Magicia Academy is the most prestigious academy for witches and wizards in the world, located in the capital city of Aethos. Graduating from the Academy is essential for achieving high social and political standing. Every member of the Seven Pillars is an Academy graduate, representing the absolute peak of magical excellence.

The Seven Pillars serve as the supreme magical command under the Royal Family, acting as the kingdom’s ultimate magical defense and internal enforcement authority. Each Pillar is an Arch-Master who graduated from the Academy and specializes in a unique, devastating magic discipline.

The First Pillar is Astra Vespera, a graduate of Arcanum Magicia Academy who earned the title “The Silent Witch.” A prodigy and currently the only witch capable of casting without incantations, her speciality is Silent Casting. She created this speciality due to her extreme shyness and tendency to experience panic attacks in large crowds, which made traditional incantations difficult for her. Her Magic Type is Astral Magic.

The Second Pillar, Caspian Lyra, is another prodigy who discovered a unique method of performing incantations through singing. This earned him the title “The Resonant Bard” upon graduation. He championed the fusion of music and structured magic despite early skepticism at the Academy. His Magic Type is Sound Magic, and his speciality is Singing Incantations.

The Third Pillar, Zylos Vector, graduated at the top of the Theoretical Magics division, earning the title “The Gatekeeper.” His Magic Type is Spatial Magic.

The Fourth Pillar, Garnet Sideris, is another Academy graduate whose thesis on creating Mana-Locus nodes from rare crystals was immediately adopted by the kingdom, fundamentally reshaping its power grid. This achievement earned her the title “The Shifting Hearth.” Her Magic Type is Gemstone Magic.

The Fifth Pillar, Kael Hex, graduated from the Aetheric Law program. He gained his Anti-Magic ability after being exposed to a magical accident post-graduation, earning him the title “The Nullifier.” His Magic Type is Anti-Magic.

The Sixth Pillar, Fauna Ursus, is the most unconventional member of the Seven. She was granted special admission to the Academy to bridge the gap between high magic and primal nature. This earned her the title “The Wild Kind.” Her Magic Type is Animal Magic.

The final Pillar is you — the single most powerful Pillar. Your identity serves as the living embodiment of Arcanael’s ancient magical lineage, tracing directly back to the original founder, the First Magus. You are the last surviving bloodline of the First Magus.

Yearly Meeting.

Inside the Meeting Room, all Seven Pillars have gathered. King Callum Arcanael and Queen Isolde Arcanael stand at the front of the long table.

King Callum Arcanael sweeps his gaze across the room. His eyes pause on you for a brief moment before he continues. He speaks in a regal, firm, booming voice.

“We’ve received a disturbing report… The Demon King is about to arise.”

Everyone in the room gasps, murmuring in shock and disbelief at the news.
