Cataclysm

**The Great Cataclysm** is a famous magical cataclysm that occurred approximately 400 years before the main plot of the book The Legends of Izgaldina. It happened on Friday, September 13, 2199.

    Presumably, this cataclysm was caused by a supernova explosion, which affected some planets where, at that time, developed life existed. This natural disaster was predicted by local scientists, and the inhabitants of some planets were forced to flee to the safety of the universe. At that time, scientists knew that the nearest habitable planet to them was Earth.

     Just as the biblical Noah, at the behest of God, saved his family and all animals from the Flood, they placed in their rockets representatives of all living beings that they managed to collect and went to planet Earth.

     As a result of this migration, many creatures were brought to planet Earth that did not exist before. So, dragons, maguses, elves and other creatures previously unknown to earthlings appeared on Earth.

     Some of them possessed amazing abilities, and as it turned out, they became proof of the real existence of the mythical characters of legends that exist among many peoples of the planet Earth.

     With their appearance, life on Earth has turned into a fairy-tale world full of mysteries and adventures.

      Earthlings saw confirmation that the past existed only in myths that were retold for centuries from generation to generation and from which the story took its breath away. So, for example, dragons from Chinese mythology became a reality. Their image corresponds to what is told in the myths: his body and neck were like snakes and covered with scales, his head was like that of a horse, often with horns or mustaches, small eyes, a huge belly, eagle claws, have wings, there are holes without wings that move across the sky with the help of magical powers.

       Dragons are evil and good. All of them have magical powers and are capable of various transformations: they change their appearance, turning into various creatures and even taking on a human form. They can suddenly appear and suddenly disappear, as if dissolving into a fog.

       Maguses are a race of beings from the genus of angels. Fanatical people, the most ancient race in the Universe, which stands guard over the Universe. They have their own ancient rules of life, laws and traditions that only they understand and jealously protect them. Very little was known about them. This species was considered extinct for unknown reasons, despite the fact that its representatives were immortal like angels.

     Outwardly, representatives of the Magus race looked like people, but they had a huge life expectancy, they lived almost forever and could die only in case of severe injuries. Maguses had the ability to change their appearance.

     Their religion is associated with a whole pantheon of gods. The main god of the Magus Inari is the god of fire and blacksmithing, as well as Hopewin is the goddess of love and dragons.

     Elves are a magical people. These are beautiful little winged creatures, light spirits of the forest. Elves are not much different from ordinary people, but they have wings. These are creatures that live underground and have dark skin.

They have an amazing magical ability and the ability to work miracles, bringing good to ordinary people.

     In addition to these creatures, people with magical abilities arrived on Earth. At first there were not many of them, but time passed and new generations of various creatures and people received the genetic heritage of their ancestors and their magical abilities became commonplace for living beings living on Earth.

## Scientific Feature

      Scientists have long studied the phenomenon of this mass phenomenon and came to the conclusion that being in outer space for a long time during the flight to Earth, animals and people were subjected to strong radiation, which covered a large area after the explosion of the star. Obviously, their spaceships had weak radiation protection and exposure affected their DNA, which led to the development of superpowers in them, which ordinary inhabitants of the Earth did not possess at that time.

      Life on Earth has changed a lot and by the beginning of the 26th century it has become what the reader saw in the plots of the book “Legends of Izgaldina”.

      It is important to say that a person with superpowers begins to feel the energies, the aura of objects and things, acquires the ability to heal himself and others, the ability to develop his intuition well, and also manage events. Such people are found in both white and black magic, and this is reflected in the book "Legends of Izgaldina". These abilities are passed on from one generation to another at the genetic level.

      How are people with superpowers or superpowers different from ordinary people? These are fantastic abilities to do something that lies beyond the limits of human capabilities: throw lightning from your fingers, breathe fire, change your appearance, quickly teleport from one place to another at a considerable distance, influence the forces of nature, objects, animals, the fate of people, subjugating supernatural forces or manipulating them with the help of spells, amulets and certain rituals. Such abilities of people and animals are called magic.

     Magic is superpowers that have a paranormal origin, it is the power of a character over the physical world. It stems from the world of the non-physical, spiritual, astral - supernatural, it is the product of the connection of beings with some spiritual supernatural entities that provide access to it. Thus, a Race of magicians was created on Earth, in which magic is an innate feature, a racial ability of certain creatures, and is natural for them, like breathing for ordinary people.
