The world was sundered into many barely connected parts eons ago. Very little is remembered about it. Every few decades, old magic wakes in Iya Khil, center of all worlds, and sets The Search in motion. Scions of magical bloodlines are called upon to find the Children of Prophecy. Supposedly, those people, when Found, would do something to hopefully merge the world again. By now, bloodlines run thin and it gets harder and harder to get enough Seekers.
