Gin’s Notes #1 – A brief history of mankind (the 3rd millennia)

23rd March 4972

Magic has never existed. It is just the weakness of mankind to fear the unknown, to call it whatever they see fit, be it a miracle, the work of the devil or just plain magic and let that be a good enough explanation in itself. That is not true nor will it ever be the case.

This notion of fearing the unknown was how the term ‘mage’ was coined in the 25th century. Although the actual feats accomplished by these so called mages were very minor; (creating a match sized fire with just a finger; Being able to change the direction of small amounts of water flow (obviously this is nothing for modern mages)) People were still somehow afraid of them. How they came about? I don’t know. Edit: I have formulated some theories after some research (See Gin’s notes #3)

‘How are they doing this? They must be contained!’ was what most authorities thought and that’s exactly what they did. Having created an Island, of location I have yet to find out, the governments of the world forced the emigration of the mages to their new home.

As more and more mages emerged and the increase in diversity in terms of what the mages could do (ranging from improving fertility in soil to minor manipulation of electricity), the governments gradually accepted them. However, mages had other traits that only they knew about. It seems that they had full control over what characteristics they passed down to their children that manush, the term given to those that weren’t mages, still were never able to master. The mages still resented the manush for their century long imprisonment but they were smart. Their children were smarter so what did they do? Instead of needless fighting, they became integral in society due to their abilities and not only that, it seemed that mages could have offspring with manush!

Due to the ability to control what genetic properties the mages had, their children were made sure to be mages. The result two centuries down the line, now the 29th century, was that 99.999% of mankind were mages of varying abilities. The remaining 0.001% was a rare trait, only consisting of the stubborn and idiotic, of manush who refused to have relationships with mages for fear of damaging the ‘purity’ of their bloodline (pitiful excuse in my opinion). Nowadays mankind, or shall I say magikind (the mages still sometimes refer to themselves as humans), believes that manush are now extinct. However, that is not true. How do I know this? Unfortunately, my ancestors were manush and so am I.
