The Silent Sword Legacy

This Story is about a 21-year old man who is known only as a wanderer by the name of Balsavi. The staging is that of an alternate universe around the time period of 2004-2006, with gunpowder and guns in general have finally started making advancement. There is no aircraft, and cars are not even a modern invention. Magic and swordsmanship is still the practice for militaries around the world. The United States government is controlled by an organization known as the Sovereign People. The Mayans continue their survival and have complete control over South America. England has control over half of Europe while Germany is its main enemy with the Nazi rule still strong, but there has been a peaceful standoff for centuries. Russia never existed, and a separate Japanese organization that rules that area, known there as No Man's Land, named so as a warning to foreigners that dare venture near. The rest of the world is ruled by small countries across the border of the Asian continent. China is the only major power, remaining silent and keeping neutrality. In Sovereign, crime is minimal and no one knows as to what the government is up to, except for building up military power and helping the people with enough money to pay for the service. The rest, which is about over 70% of the population, must survive on their own, as if Darwinism was the government's ideology. Thieves steal from thieves, and yet, the majority of people still send children to school, hoping they can learn something to grow up and change this world for the better. Unfortunately, nothing is as it seems in this country, or this world. As a foreigner from the Japanese colonies of Nagasaki, Balsavi has Mayan, Japanese and Sovereign heritage. He has trained himself to be a warrior after his father's early death in the last war, leaving him to be the last surviving male of his family. His duty is to stop government corruption before another war breaks out, and the rest of the world from pain and suffering, eradicating its evil at the source. His only weapon of choice: a long katana, passed along through his family heritage, as well as knowledge of simple fire magic, self-taught as a family heirloom.

Everything is not as it seems in this world, and it is just the beginning..
