-Start_world info about the great bang-
In the Saujan Continent , the humans were the ruler of this world until one day , the solar system of this planet collided with another system , this led to a change similar to the big bang , with a different name , this change was named the great bang.
The first change was magic , yes , magic . Humans could fly around , create fire , summon and bend water according to their wishes ! This made the human race prosper and yet , decline . Those who could use the powers of mana as the humans have named it , were highly sought after and recruited into the army of the various nations ( will go into that ... another story) and those who could not adapt as well , to fall into despair as they get rejected for being a failure .
The second change was the mana in the atmosphere which had changed the animals , The Saujan Continent were made of 50% land , 50% water , out of the 50% land , 30% were jungles and mountains . The animals received a drastic change and only after a horse kicked apart a steel wall than did the humans notice . The animals were studied by many intelligent court people yet no one could explain the phenomenon.
The third change was also , the animals again . The horse that kicked apart the steel horse , one day transformed into a 'human' that retained some features of it's previous characteristics . The horse turned into a man , retaining it's dim wit and it's hair colour . The horse man was insanely strong , It took a few high class mages and warriors to subdue it! But what turned out from the experiments on the horse man was that...
Animals could be tamed! ( duh...) Once an animal had been tamed , it will be loyal to you and serve you all it's life . Different animals were tamed differently , for example , tigers were tamed by feeding them excessively , the same way for dogs , lions and wolves . This resulted in many , many increased black markets , selling the animals as slaves ( come at me PETA ) , the humans invented many things . One of these things being a slave marker , if an animal had been tamed by you , you could mark it as your slave to ensure that it's loyalty does not worn off one day and it runs from you .

This cycle continued for many decades and books about the whole world's animals were published . Because of the black market , some animals had went into extinction . Animals like dragons , they were rare but not extinct at the time , well they are now. Critically endangered species included the silver-back gorillas and the brown bear due to their giant-like strength that caused them to be in high demands.
The thing is , not all animals could transform , only around 50% can while the other 50% failed transformation resulted in a mutated form , the most obvious mutates are the Minotaurs that were bulls at first , the failed transformation resulted in another form and mysteriously , making the Minotaurs and other failed 'transformers' aggressive towards humans .
The last change was that not just animals , even trees , plants and the likes could evolve too but they have to be very high-leveled (will go into it ) , nowadays it is not uncommon to see people walking about the streets with tamed pets , some nobles even has tamed plants like a dryad walking by it .
Spoiler : Animals that cannot transform as listed in the book of animals encyclopedia : ants , bees , frogs , turtles , spiders and some others that won't be in the story.
