Job Description:
An odd feeling took over the mages of Earthland, a calling. This calling was only comparable to homesickness. This was no ordinary homesickness, no. This was something that halted the actions each and every mage were taking. This was something that was omniscient. This feeling was one that would lead to the ultimate discovery.

In a land far away, buried deep beneath the ruins of an ancient empire, was something of unknown potential. It released huge amounts of energy, though none of it was harmful. It was something that would draw a mage in from miles away. This was something unidentifiable even to the most intelligent of mages; it had not been on this planet for an innumerable number of years. It was a source of something magical. This feeling alone would make one ask, "What is magic?"

Magic, as it is thought of now, is is the use of ethernano and the will of the mage. This will, along with the tedious training of the mage, allows the person the ability to commit all sorts of feats; magic is the physical embodiment of the mage. It is his truest form. While magic is not limited to mages, as it is used in lacrima and said lacrima used as fuel for magical objects, it is one of the most notable uses. Magic, although dominant in every Guild, is only used by ten percent of this world's population. This is what magic is known as today, but what is its origin? Where did it come from?

The One Magic. This is the, albeit unknown, source of all magic. Very little is known about One Magic, in fact, it's mere existence is often debated. What was it? How did it come to be? And then the ultimate question, "What is the One Magic?" There are a multitude of answers one will hear if they ask around; there is no exact definition as to what it is. If someone, or some group, could find a source of One Magic they would open a door to an unimaginable world. Being able to create new forms of magic, shape the world, and who knows what else!

This is what you are being sent to recover/protect. Will you heed their call? Can you help/halt the progress of these unknown perpetrators?
Enemies: 
*The appearance, and magics, of all enemies is left up to the group. Have some fun with it.
