History

After the birth of the first country, people started wondering about in the plane, which led to question about their own reality, like spells, the nature of people and the differences between arcanes and non arcanes. This led to the self-entitled first scholars, and their first outpost, Gungnir. After exploring the Sunken Temple of Darkness, and finding its many tomes, they found ways to pass along their tradition of spellmaking, and so to preserve the nature of magic and the spirit of discovery in arcanes and non-arcanes alike, they started teaching in the outpost, not only spellmaking, but also battle magic, cure, and important skills that non-arcanes were experts, like mathematics, architecture and exploration skills. With the passing of centuries, the use for non-arcane skills almost depleted, because there were spells for almost every capacity the non-arcanes thought, they became unable to attend Gungnir anymore, with the alegation that they would be more useful doing other things, such as sky-fishing and farming. Although in recent years you have new lectures, such as non-arcane studies, non-arcane politics, that suffer with heavy criticism for lack of use, actually made possible the return of the first non-arcane student in almost 200 years, with great efforts of the Non-Arcane Rights Political Party to see if it was possible for non-arcanes to adapt and learn Engineering Skills, due to the current high demand for them.
