Witch Federation

The **Witch Federation**, also known as **Union** was a large organisation established jointly by several witch kingdoms. It possessed many high-ranked witches and witch extraordinaries.

## Background

The Extraordinaries, who survived the First Battle of Divine Will, founded the union. They concentrated their forces in order to win the War of God’s Will and the Federation formed a colossal army while incorporating every Holy City into the fold at the same time.

It was responsible for training and dispatching witches, resolving disputes, and maintaining the stability and public order of the city.

## Chronology

The Witch Federation was founded after the First Battle of Divine Will by the survivors with the vow of the Three Queens which is the founding constitutional amendments of a nation. This event signified the point after which the Union had transformed from an unofficial alliance to a unified political entity.

The Three Chiefs system was built by a witch named Samantha who forced a radical change in the Union. She herself was among the first batch of Three Chiefs.

After the First **Battle of Divine Will** they were reached out by the Underground Civilization, and began to slowly discover their technology.

The Witch Federation fought against the demons during the Second Battle of Divine Will, and finally lost after the fall of the last holy city Taquila.

The survivors fled to the Barbarian lands, but were split into 2 factions because they conflicted over which strategy they would use to fight against demons. The Alice's faction proposed to sacrifice some witches to make God's Punishment Army, consisting of witches in enhanced shells, while the other, led by Natalia, was sure that only the development of magic power may allow to even humanity's chances against demons.

Furthermore, what the second faction discovered in the maze of the Underground Civilization, was in opposition with the plan of the Queen of Starfall city. If a witch abandons her body to become a God's Punishment Warrior, she'll not only lose the chance to be promoted, but also lose God's Will forever.

After knowing that God's Punishment Army was not the only way to compete with demons on the battlefields any more, the Taquila survivors who didn't want to reduce their own kind to the materials for shells caused a great conflict with Alice.

Finally the 2 factions lost their Transcendents, and Eleanor acted to stop this internal conflict and integrated herself into the Central Carrier to discover the other secret of the Underground Civilization.

But even after the merging of Eleanor and other 48 witches, the Central Carrier still hasn't obtained self-awareness and can't understand the remaining documented experiment records in the ruins.

The splitting of the 2 factions resulted in the creation of 2 groups: the Church and the Taquila Witches.

## Locations

The Witch Federation occupied vast Fertile Plains, it established 3 Holy Cities, each of which was on God's Stone mine.

* Starfall City
* Taquila
* Arrieta

Besides the three Holy Cities, there were also dozens of smaller cities on the Fertile Plains under the Union control.

## Culture

Witches of the Union believed they were chosen by the gods, while common people, unable to condense magic, were both uneducated and powerless, only good for cultivating their soil and menial labor.

Apart from witches, most of the citizens were ordinary people. They were responsible for reproducing and raising children until their magic power was awakened. These young witches would then be handed over to another special department to receive education and training.

## Politics

The Witch Federation was governed by a system of Three seats, known as Queens, each one of them ruling over one of the Holy cities. The last three Queens of the Union before its collapse are as follows:

* Alice, Queen of Starfall City
* Natalia, Queen of Taquila
* Eleanor, Queen of Arrieta

Common people, mortals, were excluded from governance; to keep information secret, the Union created magic writing which could be read by witches only.

## Trivia

* A book "General Principles" recorded the feelings and experiences of the High Awakened during their evolution, it was created to help other witches to evolve.
* **Half-quarter of an hour** is a rule to prevent damages during a witch awakening. According to it, any girl must inform surrounding people of awakening symptoms to prevent harm and deaths.
* All the Transcendents in the **Union** upgraded in battles.
