Katze und Hummel

"...and so all gods decided to leave the old plane, because after the cataclysmic events of the fogwar most of the magic was drained out of the old plane. Because gods can't exist without a certain amount of magic, they cannot live. As every being, which is imbued with enough magic, will go on to be a god. but on this plane there is not enough magic left to make that happen." said the bumblebee. "Yeah and also the magic has been kinda drained out, so the other planes could be kinda, you know, created." the cat replied, as they both looked up to the stars and the moon on the night sky. "And also the ciculation thingy the wizards keep talking about, could you explain it once more?" "All magic flows in one big circle, which is at the same time subdivided into smaller circles that flow and you can use it, no matter where you are at the circle. Harvesting the energy and turning it into useful ideas you can perform magic. Using this power is called magic."
