In the land of Baana, there was once many prosperous people born with magic. But there was a king from a different land, a greedy king who despised magic. His name was Aetius. Aetius and his people were not born with magic, and they could not learn it. The king didn't want anybody to be better than him, and someone with magic could easily take the throne from him.

One day he led his army to Baana, setting all villages aflame. The ground was a sea of flames, the air clouded with smoke. This evil king made his way to the heart of Baana, Dunsur. There he would take over the land, and order all people with magic to be killed. The king would move to Baana and all of his subjects making this their new home. It was more fertile than the last, more water sources, and a bigger land than the one in which he rules over.

Aetius finally made it to Dunsur and slaughtered Baana's emperor, taking his place. He did as he pleased, never regretting his actions, because in his eyes magic-users weren't people, but demons. The land must be rid of demons, he told his people. Those with magic hid, but most were found. They were burned, or tortured, to death.

Now, in Baana, people don't use magic, those people were wiped out completely. The law is still in affect, and most people are frightened of magic. They are scared of what magic can do, what it has done, and what people can do with it.
