Destruction

“They walk the world–feared by all. Yet, no one happens to be aware that these seemingly fearless and deadly warriors happen to be the most fearful of what they could do, unchecked. Their powers could be the end of us all, but their fear of committing such violations could be the end of themselves.”

Destruction–the first, and oldest school of magic to rise from the Northern Woodlands. However, its renowned reputation comes with a lot of spite and fear. After all, the two most menacing wizards Aaron and Ares Hakili had risen from the said school of the North, and they had caused ten thousand deaths till they burned themselves alive. Many view the mages from this terrifying school to be nothing more than savages–those who see no reason, but to shed blood and tears of their passerby’s. They are said to be merciless, cruel, and unkind. Perhaps, it was why many of its wizards call it to be the most…misunderstood school from the six.

Those who attend the Destruction School of Magic must not simply be violent and terrorizing, but rather empathic and understanding. They must be able to comprehend the scales of life and death, and know it in themselves that all their actions had consequences. While other schools would have focused more on individual growth by asking students to practice themselves, mages in the Destruction School of Magic would be watched like a hawk. In their first year of training, they would not be let out of sight, and they were only allowed to practice with a licensed mage around them to quell the ruin. Students of the school would be noticeably more cautious than their other counterparts, having seen the wretched power and darkness that lie within their fingertips.

Despite being the oldest school of magic, it also graduated the fewest students. There are some who would not be able to stomach such wide fields of flames and smoke. There were also others who had just been so consumed by their power, that they allowed it to conquer their bodies and soul–the same exact phenomenon that had happened to the Hakili brothers. Destruction is the darkest form of magic, one that should not be taken lightly. After all, one mistake could ruin millions of livelihoods. Nothing bodes well for those who have the power to destroy, not even the caster themselves.

Notable People from the Destruction School of Magic

1. Aaron and Ares Hakili – The fearsome brothers who had been infamous for burning a village down, including themselves, in the process. Many believe them to be reckless, merciless, and impulsive. Yet, they seem to be ignorant of the hardships they had faced during their stay in said village. As kids, their powers had been shunned. They were repeatedly kicked, punched, and bruised as if they were nothing more than animals led to slaughter. They were forced to become slaves of men they do not know, forced to bow down to men who had killed their mother. Yet, they had no plans of revolting, no plans of retribution…until someone had forced them apart at the age of fifteen. Using the practices, they had learned over the years, they burned the entire village down and cast acid on anyone who’d try and get close to them. The poor boys had been so consumed with their rage, that their anger had also turned on them. They died that night, buried in each other’s arms–never to be separated again.

2. Layaras – One of the greatest generals known to mankind. Many know him for single-handedly taking down an army of two thousand men with his own spells. He had always liked to push himself to his limits, so much so, that he continued to fling himself in the waves of war so impulsively that even his men could not back him up. He died in the War of the Lilith, where he had charged straight forward to face fifteen thousand soldiers and took down at least five thousand of them.

3. Maria Resaris - She was an assassin during her prime, having taken down many men and women for the sake of having a few coins on her very way. No one could catch her, not until she had turned herself in–having said that she had renounced her ways. Yet, a few years later, she escaped her own prison cell. Now, she's nowhere to be found, having been rumored to live in the mountains for the rest of her days.
