Long ago when men were merely apes, and magic was just a concept, hyper beings known as "Enochs" roamed the globe, taking care of the Father's creation, planting trees, sowing seeds, and saving creatures from storms. They were practically powerless until one time, a single ape looked up to them and praised them, following everywhere they go and imitating what they do. Before they knew it, these apes' thoughts have given them the power to alter the natural laws. Having the power, they halted storms, terraformed lands, healing injured creatures, and created rivers.
Amused by the changes, in their power, they blessed apes intelligence and sentience. Based on who blessed and which type of ape, they evolved into different types: Humans, Elven, Dwarven, etc. Analyzing the manipulation of natural laws, these sentient beings also learned how to do it in alternative methods, they call "magic". However, no species are equal, some are advanced in manipulating magic, while some are wittier, yet have a low magic affinity.
Soon, these sentient creatures created their own societies, honoring a single Enochin in every settlement. As thousands of years passed, these Enochs suddenly disappeared, and only experienced occultists who have a doctorate on both magic in theory and in practice know about them and where they are now.
Soon, random Enochs are born from different parts of the world and are venerated by their followers, while some remained peacefully devoted, some hardcore worshippers try to trample down other Enochs in the name of their personal Enoch, just like the devotees of the patron Enoch of Onorato, Yngoc.
For some unknown reason, in modern times, another Enoch rose from the southern part of the Western nation of Onorato, a nation of mining. This sparked a great debate whether this "Enoch" is legitimate or an impostor. This also became a hot topic as multiple high-ranking officials started to become wary, even other national politicians see the Enoch as an international threat.
"Dress me in the most gracious clothes I have given you all a vision of.", commanded Noche.
"Understood."
"In a minute, my Lord."
"As you wish."
The priestesses and the traveler grandmaster quickly offered and clothed Noche. They dressed him in silk clothes and iron armor. He tied his long hair with a ribbon created from deer hide, and his soles were covered with fox fur boots. While holding unto the steel scabbard, Desce bowed solemnly and gave the silver sword towards him.
Looking mighty and stiff, the Enoch looked at everyone who has bowed down to him and waved. It has been a while to see such a crowd.
However, there was something that was bugging Noche.
What do they think of him? Where is he? And especially, how is Watersky?
"Take me somewhere only us can hear.", said Noche with his new set of body he was quite unfamiliar, yet he can manage to move. Floating an inch from the ground with his toes' hair touching the floor.
The three guided Noche towards a cobblestone cave surrounded by glowing blue roses. The stench of rocks undergoing erosion and bat piss gave the Enoch the nostalgic feels.
The Enoch sat unto one of the stones, and said, "Tell me all about this world from the death of King Hugh IV", and smiled.
"King Hugh?", asked Veronica.
"From which nation is that my Lord?", added Quin.
"Watersky?", exclaimed Noche.
"Forgive me, but I have heard of no such nation-", Veronica added, yet Desce cut off her statement.
This was an unknown variable, the wise king that has turned to an Enoch of healing has become flabbergasted. He may be a prodigy at the time he was king, however, even iron melts, he has become ignorant as time passed.
