The Aldersaga
New World Sagas
Written By: A.W.W. Barry
On Earth, the end is finally neigh, but not in the capacity anticipated by scientists or film. Global environmental disaster, deadly super virus, and comet impact were considered most likely. Maybe World War III… a well-placed bullet turns a mad man into a martyr and sets a hateful world against itself, followed by nuclear annihilation. Morbid perhaps, but no less likely than anything else. Hell, even zombie apocalypse looked likely, especially with some leaks that were popping up on TikTok. But no one thought humanity would be blind sighted by everything at once.
Humanity didn’t fall in a day, but as life goes, things just kept getting worse and worse and worse. World governments started dying off or resigning from the safety of hidden bunkers, shadowy organizations started coming out of the woodwork wearing familiar faces, and factions were formed around ideals, greed, faith, and nostalgia. At the center of it all: a child, the culmination of more than a thousand years of scientific research on the remaining Mana of our world, protected by two friends and immortal soldiers.
All the while, humanity’s hope may yet remain elsewhere in the universe. Two shuttles reenforced with classified technology designed for prolonged space travel depart in hopes of finding a new world to call home. Their destination: the Odyssean Galaxy, on a large and sustainable planet codenamed “Ithica.”

Beyond the stars circles a world yet to be named Aenea: a land saturated with blood and magic, inhabited by many different and diverse races that coexist in relative peace. That is, until the sky is filled with the thunderous tremors of an invasion from across Ginnungagap, a violent tribe of self-proclaimed gods known as the Aesir. As the most powerful race and guardians of Aenea, the Vanir are the first to face them, spurring a war transcending even the memory of the elven races - a war of gods and of giants and of Fae.
At the dawning of the new age, twin stars fall upon a world forever changed, tearing across the skies above a young empress and her final victory for a fledgling empire. It was as the Lady of the Fen had foretold, and in exchange for her victory she defies the pleas of her generals and leads a company towards the place of Starfall, the Midlands. There she does not find the cruel empire of Frost Elves as they had once known, but a small and weakened race of unknown origins.
