It's the year 34 A.R. (After Ragnarok). Lucian Vale, a 15-year-old boy, lives at the edge of East Iowa, two blocks away from a wall separating them from beasts who seek to extinguish all traces of human life. He had once known a better life closer to the center of the Sanctuary in Nebraska-Istal, but after his father's death—a powerful Ascendant who attempted but failed to reconquer the lost territories of Ontario—he and his sister's life took a deep turn when a masked mage 'kidnapped' the both of them from their father's guild headquarters and showed them his father's last voice message through an artifact: "Hide my children's identities." After being shown the message, they listened to the masked mage, had their identities transformed at the genetic level with magic, and lived in an orphanage. With the public presuming them dead and the proximity to the wall putting them in potential mortal danger, Lucian returns with his sister to Istal in a quest for not only survival, but power. For his sister, Lucian would do anything, whether that means climbing the ranks of a magic academy with no name and little resources, or venturing beyond the walls to exterminate the beasts. Only through becoming an Arcanist—the highest rank any human mage has obtained—can he hope to have the power to unravel the mysteries of the world and his parents' deaths.
