Two realms previously separated become connected
Political leaders in both realms attempt to purge the influences of their opponents
Period of time where philosophy is openly discussed and challenged by all peoples
All peoples of all nations of both realms strive towards an era of discovery and unison leading to invention.
Magitech is developed that can prolong life almost indefinitely.
An apocalypse of undefined nature
Having discovered the forces of tech and magic had lead to terrible diseases, the techmages decided to save the realms by dividing them in two.
The barriers that have stood since time began crumble, allowing the two realms to finally meet and become aware of each others existence.
Explorers from the Tech Realm venture into the lands beyond the fallen barrier.
War between the nation that trades with the technological nations and the ones that remain ideologically pure.
People from the nations closest to the barrier decide to have a small contest with high profile spectators only.
People from many nations gather in the realms of magic to witness feats of incredible scientific or fantastic wonder.
The two leading academic institutions for magic and technology come together for the first time to develop a unified theory.
Development of systems for controlling magic through formulas and equations.
Magical purists saw warlocks dabbling with technology as a threat to the status quo.
The wizards saw that anyone could wield power with technology, for example, the High magus observed that a mere janitor could emulate powerful magics with borrowed technologies.
Magic users and techs are on a field, magic users have sent an arrow almost to the horizon. Techs are about to fire a new weapon they have developed in the same direction.

A plague was cured and prevented of rising up again only due to work done by both schools. Scientists and mages worked together to cure the sick and develop preventative measures. The results of which made them realise that perhaps something better could come from their union.
Early morning, at science and technology school. An old school recently refurbished to include a magical branch in which an experimental fusion of fire crystal and a steam engine is being tested. In the lab where this experiment is taking place.
The experiment goes wrong due to a misunderstanding between the professor and the student, causing the engine to explode as well as the crystal.
Middle of the day, realm of science. Magic and tech people are present at a track field, upon which a marathon runner is waiting. On the left arm he has monitoring equipment for heart rate/pulse, right arm has a bracelet full of crystals and symbols shining brightly. A quick nod of heads all around and the runner prepares to run, with a shout he takes off at full speed around the circuit whilst a scientist keeps track with a stop watch.
After 6 hours, the scientist holds up his hand and the runner stops. Scientist determines the runner has run the equivalent of 2 marathons in those 6 hours, none-the-worse for wear.
Answer: 9mph
Experimental pilot developing new magitech engines. Flying a magitech plane with his team to test out new engines and tech.
Answer: through the failure of safety features
Set in an overrun hospital, bodies piling up all around them, doctors scrabble to work out just how bad things have got. Census takers come in and out and finally they reach some rough numbers. Since the first recorded incident a week ago, almost 500,000 people have been confirmed dead from plague.
