Transendence

Updated every other day I don't proofread very well so it's likely that I'll miss some mistakes so feel free to correct me in the comments. SUMMARY One faithful night over 2 millennia ago the ascension of Christ opened a dimensional gash into the unknown. Frightened by it’s power the emperor instructed his priests to envelope the portal with the strongest wards they could muster, and formed a secret society dedicated to containing the otherworldly demons would rush from the portal on the darkest day of the year. But eventually the empire fell and with it the order and all knowledge of the rift. And so for the first time the mystery of the rift became preserved by the rubble. Half a century ago a certain anti-Semitic Reich in search of the occult unearthed the tomb. Causing the accumulated monsters to burst forth. The shear amount of demons was enough to ensure the annihilation of a large infantry platoon only to be once again sealed by several tons of concrete after 90 days of continual bombing. But still the Reich stationed soldiers-well aware of the potentially disastrous consequences that the rift could unleash. But eventually the remaining forces were recalled to defend the fatherland and the rift was forgotten once again until some time in the early 21 century. In the early 21st century physics experiments in detecting dark matter showed a strange and consistent discrepancy. Triangulating the errors a team of UN lead scientists managed to pinpoint the direction of the discrepancy at a certain mountain side near Rome. Soon the discovery of the Nazi research notes a new discipline was created. Metaphysical Affect Generation Interception and Control. Today dark matter is known as astral and the ones who study M.A.G.I.C are known as mages, and as the darkest day of the year approaches the rift once again grows restless. This is a story about a young boy in the future who transcends who he was and is to become someone that really exists.
