Millentica Lucie Houessou

1942, Europe At the same time that World War 2 raged in the world of humans, another war was unleashed in the Millenticas. So much death littered the magical world, but not one dead or dying was bleeding, nor poisoned. This war was the separation of the Millenticas. Can the Igneous and Creo survive apart from each other?

Through the oval, was a green field with trees and bushes. The picture wavered like a flowing river.
