The Mage Plague

Disaster / Destruction

The Mage Plague wasn't a plague, it was just called that. Following the birth of the first Mage, everyone with a piece of Blood Crystal wanted to become one. Little did they know, Xantorev's miraculous survival was just incredible fortune. Slightly less than one percent of those that digested Blood Crystals became Mages - the others died, and we had no ways of saving them. This Magic was beyond our capabilities.
