Earth Requiem

Earth expiration date happened during the age of corruption and it accelerate the decaying process all around earth. Temperature starts to spike to the highest point of celcius and change abruptly all around the clock. Drought occuring all over the continent and it creates a domino effect where all the plants and animals proceed to meet its maker. It is like a torrential series of unfortunate event one after another.

Giant Crystal

Pre-Earth tribe left a message that earth used to fuse with a giant crystal and this particular crystal act as a core to provide nourishment and magic around the planet. After humans and the awakened animals take too much food and the bounty that earth provides. It slowly decays and it enter acceleration phase the moment all of them discover magic.
Magic were used to enhance both human and awakened animals daily necessities. First it is only used for starting a fire, creating simple structure for shelter, and washing dirty clothing. Then it escalate to powering up continual light source around the town, constructing massive building to host move than 10 families, and providing water source through water fountain for the whole city.
This prolong usage of magic helped their well being. Then again, after hundreds of years, Earth starting to show a minor to major symptoms.
Water stops flowing, resources getting more and more scarce, magics are more unstable to use and control, and the magicules on the air is getting more thin. This cause concern and spread seed of doubt to both humans and awakened animals.

Natural Selection

After the symptoms appear, the blame game happens. Feud and conflict arise between awakened animals and humans to the point there are casualties on both sides.
