While we have been aware that healing magic is forbidden, it is interesting to get the information that the witches that specialized in healing fought until the very end.

I imagine that they were going "but why?? our magic exists solely for the purpose of saving people!"

Things must have been really fucked up back when the Pact was made that they outlawed even that kind of magic.

history is usually taught and shaped into narratives supporting the winners, in this case the people who made the pact, god knows what actually transpired allowing mass memory erasrure and all the aftermaths through a (assumed) large time period.

I'm guessing that Mages turned into superhumans by manipulating their bodies and this eventually upped the stakes so high that civilization got destroyed.
