The Tale Untold

In the times past lies a tale untold.

A certain King, King Arthur sought to rid his lands of the influence of the evil magic practitioners. He sought the help of two great magicians by his side, Morgana and Merlin, each of them pivotal to the victories that he attained.

Crusade after crusade, one thing remained constant. No matter how many of the witches' and wizards Arthur took down, they simply got back up and resumed their duties again.

Plus, you could not just put people who practices magic in a regular prison. Arthur sought for something that was more binding. And in his quest, Morgana found the answer.

She theorized that instead of locking them up or burning them, their magic could actually be sealed. As magic was in depth to each soul, to seal ones magic would mean to seal the soul of such a person.

Arthur wanted to play God. And so, he wholeheartedly agreed, watching as souls and souls were sealed into several objects and artefact, all of which were tossed into the seas and hidden in caves. Lest no man would be tempted to undo the binding on them.

In this way, the evil ones were permanently dealt with.

Up until the times of modernity and computers and yes, Artificial Intelligence. A couple of those soul binding items were found. And a group of people who thought to harness the latent energy these items possessed (which unknown to them was the magic of the souls) decided to digitize them, adding Artificial Intelligence to process the energy.

It was a success, widely celebrated. Humans could now have powers of Gods. The humans who made this success were referred to as the System Bureau and every one who had an item was referred to as a SYSTEM HOLDER.

It is from this point, our tale must begin.
