We hoped for better.
Maybe living in less fear is better.
We just blamed the wrong person.
The so called witch “Isabella” ruled for 57 years until she was knocked off. The victory was a huge morale boost and the propaganda used after was immensely exaggerated as it flushed the street with a false sense of security. “We truly had won” they said. What a blissful moment. They even ignored the heroes that landed them there.
As this victory happened in the Victoria Kingdom outskirts, it was a great appearance for them. As they gained their supremacy once again, a big power shift resulting to the Victoria the great kingdom it is today. Power, money and immense agriculture were hard to achieve for such a big country but the defeat of Isabella brought a silver plate on their lap.
Of course they weren't the only ones to profit; Kingdom Maria & Octavia. Kingdom Maria was an aquatic kingdom that had better technology than the others. The advanced humans of that kingdom also specialised in aquatic foods and animals; second to kingdom Victoria. The great village Octavia housed most demi-humans such as Elves, dark elves & half-breeds. In fact they only came into contact with humanity some 100 years ago.
The lesser nations such as the Beast domain, Monster Nation, the Amazon village and The Great Empire.
Wars had plagued these seven kingdoms but after some time. They grew tolerant to each other and decided peace for the sake of their future generations. Of course that didn't last long either because the witch gained control of the 7 kingdoms.
The relief plans made after the witch's disappearance worked and life came back. Well some things did. The slavery trade was legalised to profit most Kingdoms, People didn't have much power unless you were nobility or chosen by the king.
The Great 7 Alliance supported each other greatly and the truth about the witch was held within the 7 leaders.The Witch Isabella lost her power temporally. Her power was sealed away in the Ice Caverns due to its lack reactivity to dark magic. Her dragon Magnus was defeated but its whereabouts were also unknown. They were only two survivors of the incident. The Viking Beast, Hogarth who worked at the institute of Victoria High as a Principal and The Master of elements, Magic were heavily protected as National treasures and Military powers.
Due to the Witch's exploits Dark magic was banned and users of such were executed publicly. This was protocol to thin out the chances of the witch ever recovering. Since dark magic was a rare ability, most people weren't afraid it.
Life continued the way it was. Slight improvements. Arguments in nobility. Peasants misused and abused. Life continued without batting an eye to any of its problems.
