Tanasma

Where Tech And Magic Coexists (Prolog)

By KimaeramanPublished 2 years ago 7 min read

In the beginning of time, long before the world as we know it, the universe was surrounded by silence. In that darkness, there arose a great power called Aurum, the Creator. Aurum looked and decided to give life. With a breath of golden light, she created a beautiful planet called Tanasma.

Tanasma is the jewel of the universe. Its mountains tower high, its forests are lush and green, and its rivers flow like silver threads that shine in the sun. Hidden within its soil lies a pure energy called Ethereon, the source of power that feeds all things.

But with every light, there is always a shadow. As the energy of Ethereon spread, it split into two: Lumineth, the peaceful force of light, and Tenebris, the tempting and ambitious shadow. From these two, two entities were born that would change the fate of Tanasma forever.

From Lumineth emerged the Auryn Ethereal, the seven guardian angels of light. They are:

Seraphion, the wise leader who wields the sword of light.

Elyssarion, with infinite wisdom.

Lumiviel, the guardian of hope.

Caelithar, the ruler of time and destiny.

Auralithis, the bringer of peace.

Tenebralis, the light in the shadows.

Ignithon, the eternal fire.

Auryn Ethereal promised to protect Tanasma and maintain balance. However, from the shadow of Tenebris, a terrifying enemy emerged: the Seven Dragons. They are:

Vritra, the fire dragon that burns everything in its path.

Vasuki, the water dragon that can drown the land.

Garuda, the wind dragon with wings that create storms.

Gorom, the earth dragon that makes the core of Tanasma shake.

Ao Shin, the lightning dragon that tears the sky.

Ymir, the ice dragon that freezes everything.

Archos, the dark dragon that devours light.

Angels and dragons met on their first battlefield. The skies of Tanasma were transformed into a sea of ​​light and shadow. Mountains shattered, oceans overflowed, and the land of Tanasma cracked in the aftermath of the fierce battle.

Watching the world she created with love begin to crumble, Aurum wept silently. She knew that balance could not be forced. The seven angels vowed to find a way to save the world, while the dragons, with their power, spread destruction.

But fear not, little one. For in every story, light always has a way of shining again. Tanasma may be struggling, but there is still hope. The angels will fight on, and the dragons... will one day find their place in harmony.

And now, close your eyes, and imagine the gentle light of the angels leading you to sweet dreams. They are there, guarding our dreams from the darkness. Sleep well, for this story has only just begun.

In a far-flung corner of the galaxy, there is a planet called Tanasma. This planet is where a new civilization is beginning to grow, a world that combines technology and magic in fragile harmony. In Tanasma, humans and magical creatures live side by side, influencing each other in every aspect of daily life.

On one hand, nascent technology offers convenience and efficiency. Advanced machines powered by scientific knowledge are beginning to reach every corner of life, from agriculture to transportation. But on the other hand, magic that has existed since ancient times still plays a vital role, providing power and wonder that machines cannot match.

The two, technology and magic, seem to dance in a beautiful symphony. However, as this civilization develops, tensions begin to arise. Some see technology as a threat to the legacy of magic that has existed, while others see magic as a barrier to progress and innovation. The conflict between these two forces often leads to great conflict, threatening the stability that has only just been established.

Amidst this tension, leaders and warriors from various backgrounds struggle to find balance, trying to combine the power of technology and magic for a better future for Tanasma. But the question that continues to echo is: can they find a way to coexist, or will the world descend into endless chaos?

In Tanasma, a world filled with magic and innovation, a long-standing conflict begins to tear apart the fabric of everyday life. The harmony between magic and technology, once enchanting, is now threatened by ambition and fear. Wars and conflicts arise, bringing deep suffering and loss. The history of Tanasma is now filled with the names of unforgettable battles, which bear witness to the divisions and struggles between the two opposing forces.

The first conflict that caused sorrow in Tanasma was known as the Trial of The Witch. This battle occurred when a group of witches, who called themselves the Oathkeeper, felt threatened by technological advances that were destroying their heritage. Led by a great wizard named Elyndor, they organized a resistance against scientists who wanted to control magic with technology. Elyndor, who had extraordinary powers and a deep understanding of magic, tried to protect ancient rituals and traditions that had existed for thousands of years.

On the other hand, a group of scientists known as the Newborn, led by a genius named Dr. Vesper, believed that the future lay in technology. They tried to create a machine that could harness natural energy and magic power to increase efficiency and productivity. The conflict between the two groups escalated into a brutal battle, where many villages and cities became battlefields.

During the Trial of The Witch, many casualties fell on both sides. The most famous battle was the Battle of Eldrith, where hundreds of witches and scientists fought in the middle of a magical forest. The magic deployed by the Oathkeeper against the advanced weapons used by the Newborn forces created tremendous destruction. Ancient trees that had stood for thousands of years were destroyed, and rivers that were once clean were now filled with the darkness of magic and uncontrolled pollution waste.

The battle ended in great loss. Countless corpses lay on the battlefield of Eldrith, and both sides lost their leaders. Elyndor and Dr. Vesper died in an epic duel that decided the fate of the battle, leaving a leadership vacuum that was difficult to fill. The war ended without a clear winner, but created deep mutual suspicion and hostility that became the beginning of the division of civilization.

After the first era ended marked by the completion of the Trial of The Witch, Tanasma entered the Age of Technological Revival. With the deaths of Elyndor and Dr. Vesper, each side attempted to rebuild their power. In the void, a new leader from among the scientists named Kira emerged, who brought a new vision of the integration of technology and magic. He tried to convince the public that collaboration between the two forces was the only way to a sustainable future.

However, not everyone agreed. A more radical group of wizards, who called themselves the "Shadow Tribe", refused to compromise. Led by Morgath, a former student of Elyndor, they vowed to destroy any innovation that threatened the existence of magic. Morgath argued that magic was the core of their existence, and technology would only change the world into something foreign and unknown.

The conflict between the Shadow Tribe and the scientific community culminated in the Battle of Ember Cliffs, where the Shadow Tribe launched a surprise attack on the scientist-controlled city. The battle was fierce, with Morgath's powerful magic fighting against the war machines designed by Kira. Fire and lightning lit the sky, and the battlefield was filled with destruction.

The aftermath of the Battle of Ember Cliffs was devastating; much of the city's buildings were destroyed, and thousands of residents lost their lives. Although Kira managed to defend the city, the psychological effects of the war left their mark on the Tanasma people. Tensions between the wizards and the scientists deepened, and they were forced to seek refuge in remote areas, this second clash of technology and magic creating two worlds that were increasingly separated from each other.

In the third century after the Age of Enlightenment, the world began to be torn apart by two great forces: magic and technology. At first, the two elements worked hand in hand, complementing each other, creating wonders that changed the face of civilization. However, that harmony was slowly eroded by human ambition. Magic was considered old-fashioned and inefficient by the technologists who worshipped machines, while the wizards saw technology as a threat to the sanctity and balance of the world.

This segregation began with small rivalries, fighting for resources, territory, and influence. However, the competition soon turned into a major conflict. Countries that chose the path of technology began to create massive and cruel war machines, while the wizards built magical fortresses filled with curses and guardian creatures. Wars broke out across the world, destroying civilizations that were once glorious and full of hope.

Only one place survived the chaos: Edenia, a landmass located between two great continents. Edenia became a symbol of harmony, a place where magic and technology lived side by side. There, engineers worked together with wizards, creating innovations that united the essence of both forces. Their machines were powered by magical energy, while their spells were enhanced by advanced technology.

However, Edenia's glory became a thorn in the side of a divided world. Technologists wanted Edenia's magical resources to advance their machines, while wizards viewed Edenia as a traitor who mixed things that were considered unholy. Attack after attack was launched against Edenia, but this last bastion of civilization stood strong, protected by magitek shields - an unmatched combination of magic and technology.

While Edenia continued to maintain its harmony, other regions began to crumble and revert to a primitive state. Technologists lost their humanity, becoming slaves to the machines they had created. The surviving wizards, on the other hand, became fanatics, rejecting all forms of progress and returning to ancient practices that sometimes resembled dark rituals.

This third century marks the end of a unified world and the beginning of a new era of division. Edenia is the only hope, an oasis for those who still believe that the balance between magic and technology is the key to saving the world. But a big question hangs over their sky: How long can Edenia survive the wrath of the world?

The world is now divided, and this conflict will determine the fate of civilization for thousands of years to come. And the main story of the world of Tanasma... has begun!!
