Final Incineration

Third of the Thirteen

Let me make it very clear. This is not a spell or magic or art. It is a weapon of mass destruction. A tool with only one purpose: to turn all of creation to ashes.

- from the Lexica Arcana, Addition XI. by Dario Anaris   The message greeting those who search the Lexica Arcana for the spell known as Final Incineration. Meant to ward of curios mages but only really serving to heighten their curiosity. One of the thirteen Forbidden Spells it is often called the epitome of fire magic.   Beyond that nothing is known. The High Council has done everything in its power to erase all scriptures concerning the Forbbiden Spells. That we even know of its name is only due to an incident involving a Rouge Mage. Of course one could always ask the High Council for information but they would sooner wipe you from existence than let anyone not part of their circle gain insight.

- Milian Kenrin the Exiled Mage in "A Critic of the System"  
Wait a second. How do you know so much about it? You said the council hated you?
Oh that they do. But I didn't get my knowledge from some dusty tome.
But how...I mean-
Do you really think the Council fears these techniques only because they sound terrifying?
Of course not. Every spell is tested atleast...once...
Indeed. I never read about the spell. Never needed to. I saw it with my own eyes. Saw my whole world turn to ash in an instant.

Doom of Teamar   A cataclysm that annihilated all life on the western continent of Teamar in 100 AoD. The acknowledged cause was a meteorite hitting its southern coast.   To this day it has remained a blasted wasteland, ash storms sometimes crossing the ocean and hitting the surrounding lands.
There have been only a few hundred suvivors clinging to the northern coast.   Calling themselves the Reclaimers they attempt to slowly regain their lost home, sending expeditions into the continents interior to search for any artefact that may have survived.
