This world is foreign and mystical, yet not to different than our world. Their is a strange magic in this world. The knowledge of magic and its works come from a floating city where the majority of upper ranked mages reside. Magic works on a “voluntary” sacrifice, they magic user requires that the sacrifices utters a specific phrase in clear wording for the desired result. So many young orphans are “adopted” by the mages and groomed as part of their cult willing and ready for sacrifice. They are only ever taught to speak specific phrases from a very young age. There is a group of assassins that are legally allowed by all, well known. Their hierarchy at the top is the one who chooses to accept and deny assassination requests. The assassins also have a deal with the mages not to assault one another, though there is a group of assassins that have anti-magic weapons and armor that are sometimes hired to kill rogue mages. The kingdoms have all but disarmed, keeping a token peace keeping force for drunkards and other crimes. The mages handle anyone who tries to be bandits or anyone who tries to bring up an army. Technology has stagnated with nearly no advancements in known history. The anti-magic weapons and armor is made in an opposite way of how magic works, the assassins learned a method of getting iron out of the blood and forging weapons and armor, though only 6 people have such weapons or armor and most of them is only weapons.
