    Summary

    In the late 2010s, human nature changes forever. Seemingly overnight, young people begin to develop supernatural abilities, powers once restricted to the worlds of fiction and fantasy. These powers, and those who wield them, come to be known as Awakened—and their appearance sends the world down a very different path.

    War follows, as it always does. Wars for power, for territory, for the very right to exist. Centuries of Awakened battles stain the world with blood. Those with powers and those without find new equilibriums, new relationships, and new causes. Movements and empires rise and fall.

    Over four hundred years after the First Awakening, a book is published. Purporting to be the most definitive history of the Awakened Age ever collected, it contains never-before-seen documents, original articles by leading historians, in-depth analysis of the classification systems developed to describe Awakened abilities, and more. Hailed by some as a landmark achievement in historical literature, lambasted by others for its controversial approach, the book is known as The Awakened Age: A History of the Superhuman Millennium, and like any work of history, it is only a tiny fraction of the story.
