Long ago, when humans had only first began to explore such abstracts as right and wrong two magical beings would awaken from a deep slumber within the earth. They were beings of magic and some thought they were equal to gods if not the actual spirits of the planet itself. One was the spirit of all things good, a pure thing that desired to protect life. One was a spirit of all things evil, a corrupted thing that wanted to destroy all it saw. The two were equal in all respects, two halves of the same coin, but with such opposing desires inevitably fought. The two beings battled through the clouds with mystical power but neither could truly win. Instead the battle simply resulted in both beings destruction. Their blood rained over the planet for years as they disintegrated to time, until finally nothing was left of them.

In that blood, power pulsed so despite how it seems things were not truely over. Those it touched were transformed into fantastic creatures and those indirectly exposed such as by drinking tainted water would often give birth to strange beings. The closest to the evil being were called Demons, for they had almost irresistible urges to destroy and felt their power grow from the pain of the innocent. They were the first of the dark races. Those who were closest to the good being were called Angels, for their great powers of healing and purity as well as their instinct to protect. They were the first of the light races. They were not the only beings to appear from this blood, however. Fairies, vampires, elves, mystical kitsune, nymphs, and many more races would form from humans, reborn. Each race would identify with either the light or the dark, fighting throughout the ages. Their bloodlines thinned and 'purebloods' of any race would become rare as they were forced to breed with others outside their race to save themselves from extinction. Even humans, not satisfied being victims or being burdens to the light would find ways and weapons to fight.

As time progressed, however, the races seemed to adapt and change as if the war itself was pushing them too it. Many of the dark learned to control their urges and many of the light began to become more 'earthly' and corruptible until the two seemed to blend into one. Even the humans began to grow tired of the fighting, though their numbers remained plentiful. A fragile peace was formed between the races, as of around a hundred years ago. Still, the pains of so much fighting linger and those lost to either dark urges or too much power risk that peace daily. The races kept their distance from one another in fear, until finally an old Hunter decided the peace could not last that way.

To that end the Hunter has started a school for all races, though they are divided into two classes so that they can learn at times that suit them best. The Hunter hopes that between passing each other on campus and between meeting at school functions that slowly this new generation will learn to form a peace built on friendship rather then sorrow or fear. For the dark races who feel their best at night there are the Night classes and the Moonshadow dorm symbolized by a crescent moon with the shadow of the rest of the moon visible to form a circle. For the light races who feel their best during the day there are the Day classes and the Sunlight dorm symbolized by a golden sun with rays extending from it over a pale blue circle. Each student wears a pin with their dorms symbol on it, except for the prefects who police the campus to prevent fighting who wear a different pin. Their pin has a golden sun similar to the sunlight but with a crescent moon over it's face and is on a dark blue background. The individual lessons go all the way from math and science to alchemy to hand to hand combat in range so that a full high school education can be reached while learning to control one's powers.

The campus itself has a relatively simple layout inside it's tall, brick walls. It architecture is classic and also made mainly of red brick with three distinct buildings. The center most building is the main school building which contains the classrooms and gym on one end with the Cafeteria, nurses office, and other shared facilities on the opposite side. The other two buildings are the Moonshadow and Sunlight dorms which are divided by gender as well as grade with a shared common room at the center. The bulk of the rest of the campus is divided into the large natural forest at the north end and the two gardens at either side of the main gate. The gardens are maintained by both classes in order to encourage interactions and are vary lavish. Both gardens contain a fountain at their heart with benches to sit on beneath sweeping trees. The campus is slightly wild, with an emphasis on natural beauty and with animals roaming the forest at will.
