Silver Night was the night of magic. The one night out of the year when the moon let out its silver glow and shined down on the land for eighteen hours, only six hours of sunlight. Our moon would be the same dark red moon every day after tonight.
Silver Night was also known as Death Day due to the magic uses that died on that day. Of course, the story is nothing but a legend, however I still believe it.
The story goes that one day some humans crossed over into our dimension by accident and were frightened by us Magii, the people of magic, and slayed us one by one until only the ones who couldn't use magic were left. Then the humans who crossed over were killed in memory of the parents and children. To make sure we were ready for another attack an academy was built, DWCM for the families that fought the humans that day. DWCM stood for Destruction, Weaponry, Curing and Magic. Some magic users are still alive today but they're hard to find.
Our people's name changed from Magii to Wyit, the name of the strongest magic user, the first one to be killed by humans.
Magic users of course are called Magii in respect. To know if someone can wield magic you have to look at their arms. There should be strange designs on one of them like swirls, zigzags, straight lines any kind of design on them. The darker, larger, and more complex design, the stronger the Magii.
Unfortunately nowadays, Magiis only have light colored designs that only cover a small part of their arms. Not complex in anyway. Back before the attack, magic users had both arms covered in black thick designs that would be passed down generation after generation all the way up and down their arms. Hell, Wyit had his arms and back covered with the designs.
Now, we aren't allowed outside on Death Night and silver is not to be touched by Wyits. Only Magiis can use that metal and color.
