In the library of the Pure White Tower… Ah, the Pure White Tower was a mage tower standing in another plane, one of the three famous Academy Towers, where Yila and Vera enrolled as freshmen at the same time.
So, apart from being colleagues, Yila and Vera had actually been classmates for a period, though they were not very familiar with each other… During their school days, the two of them did not have much interaction.
Yila also made a name for himself (or rather, an infamous reputation) during his school years. The title of "Cruel Blood Witch" followed him for a long time until it was replaced by "Chief Governor," but that was another story.
In short, the library of the Pure White Tower recorded that the distant Divine Era was a time when the gods were still active. During that period, human prayers received responses from the gods, until one day when the gods suddenly fell silent, continuing to this day.
