They will reach the pinnacles of their professions as a result of their competition, but at horrific cost. They will use every trick their magicians can conjure up to bring the other to destruction, even the greatest deceit and the most sinister science.
There will be enough bloodshed, but not enough. Their legacy will ultimately last for generations...to descendants who will need to solve the riddle that has been left for them in order to maintain their sanity.
