《Triple Orb Academy》An Introduction to the World of Zeffernon
Advertisement
Magic, it is a very familiar word, familiar, but also extremely vague.
So far, the only clear definition of magic we have, is that magic is some kind of power that influenced courses of events through the usage of mysterious and supernatural forces. It is a curious thing how we give such a definition to something that is often accepted to be unreal.
For all we know, magic is mostly noted to be unrealistic. It is mostly accepted to be a fabric of our imagination in this world, where the logic of math, science and Truth dominates over everything else. In our heads, we all believe in the findings of science and mathematical proving since science and math has brought humanity closer to certain truths about this world. In some ways, it has brought us closer towards the absolute 'Truth'.
However, there are also other supernatural subjects that we humans often believe in. Strangely enough, these supernatural subjects are things that we cannot explain. Yet, we believe them and even accepted them to be facts or truths, the most common examples of these subjects are religions, luck and even fate.
Even though these are things that lacked logical explanations, we trust them enough in such a way that they are eventually accepted as liabilities, to the point where we occasionally held them responsible for events that happened in our everyday lives. But even as we humans accept all of this, we only accept magic as what it is, a mere subject only to be explored by our own sense of imagination and well prepared tricks.
Yet surprisingly, magic has grown to be a rather popular topic among the masses, both with positive and negative feedbacks. If you look back, Magic has appeared frequently in human history often with dubious reputations.
Magic is initially associated with many folkloric stories and theatrical works, where magic is often seem to be utilized by villainous witches and wizards. In fact, magic is so dubious and untrustworthy that we cannot deny the fact that religious organizations had condemn magic as the devil's instruments, whereby countless witches and wizards have been burned to the stake as heretics during the medieval ages.

As the times passed, there even exist such things called magic cults, questionable organizations where unwelcomed people believed in the absolute existence of magic. But despite all the negative thoughts about magic, the perception of magic changed slightly, as the world progressed and advanced.
Now in it's present times, magic has become something worth as an entertainment value, where it has been used in works of friction and fantasies, as strongly seen in general novels, light novels, comics, manga, anime and games. But despite the change in perception, magic is still something improbable, as no one is able to prove the existence of magic.
But amidst of all the entertainment works of friction, some people feel that it would be nice if the world revolve around magic. If magic does exist and if a world revolving around magic exists, it might prove to be very interesting. If a world of magic exists, we can cast spells, or do things that are way beyond our imaginations, or we might perhaps alter reality to our own image. Some may also find such a world to be adventurous, as it is a world full of unspoken or unimaginative opportunities.
But if you ask me, a world revolving around such an ambiguous subject can be very chaotic. Since magic is something that has no definite bounds, certain things about magic can get pretty dangerous.
Because like all things, magic has its own benefits and consequences. So if you imagine yourself to be in a world revolving around magic, please don't think of it like those manga, comics and games.
Because, unlike what most people speculate about a world of magic, Zeffernon is never so kind.
