THE HISTORYIt was the year of 1850, one hundred years before Lyra Belacqua's birth, and the world of human and daemon seemed to be at peace. Svalbard was flourishing, bringing more resources such as prey to the bears who inhabited its icy landscape. In the city of Oxford, population rose staggeringly, businesses experienced growth, and colleges had to expand due to the sudden interest in education. But the shadow of the Magisterium did not falter. They had gotten news of a witch clan prophecy that alerted them to an extreme. Most members of the Magisterium took no note of the prophecy, denouncing it as heresy and evil witchcraft. But other people were taken aback by it. Eventually word of this event had spread across the Magisterium, across Oxford, across the world.
A girl named Aurora Polaris and her daemon, Sirion, lived behind the walls of Jordan College at the time of the prophecy. Aurora was an orphan taken in by the college at the time of her birth, thirteen years before.
Aurora pertains to the prophecy greatly, and the Magisterium are racing the witches to get to her first. But Aurora sets out on the adventure as well, told by the master of Jordan College that she is the human in the prophecy. Along her journey, Aurora will encounter secrets, myths, lies, challenges, and the truth of her adventure. But perhaps the most startling truth of all is this: The prophecy is not about a human. It is about a daemon.
What is the prophecy? Whose daemon is the prophecy referring to? Who will find Aurora and Sirion first? And who will not survive the war that is surely to come? It's all in your hands...
Jordan College Jordan College is an ancient structure that has served as a college for many years. Night-ghasts lurk in the catacombs and the cemetary, so it's best to keep your guard up when deciding to venture around. Moderator: Aurora & Sirion
The Magisterium The Magisterium is a relatively newer building, placed in the center of Oxford city. Towering over other skyscrapers, the building is the headquarters of the Authority's most devout followers. Moderator: Aurora & Sirion

The Docks The docks of Oxford are in the outskirts of the city, usually always immersed in shadow by the large boats and ships that make port here. The docks are also a place generally run by gyptians. Moderator: Aurora & Sirion
