A long time ago, when Notch first created Minecrafia, the people and creatures would spawn in the world. All kinds of Minecrafians, Hybrids, Sorcerers, Witches, and Shadows spawned, all different in their own way, all made for a purpose. One day the spawning stopped, this scared the Minecrafters that were already there, they were afraid of their future, so they got together and had brought their own kids into the world. The people, and creatures in Minecraftia never worried about their future again, but spawning-in was long forgotten.

Everything was peaceful, and safe in Minecraftia for everyone, except sorcerers. Hunters would track them down and kill them for their magic, just for money. Curiosity might have killed the cat, but greed killed the sorcerer. The sorcerer's, afraid for their own life, went into hiding, but that didn't stop the hunters from tracking each of them down and killing them off one by one. It wasn't till they got to the last family of sorcerers, that our story began.

~Seto's POV~

I was in my room playing with my magic, doing simple firework, and color spells that do no damage. "Πυροτεχνήματα." I chant. An explosion of colors suddenly burst out of no where right in front of me, I sit there and look at it with fascination, examining the wonderful colors as they spin and swirl in front of me.
"Seto, dinner is ready!" My mother calls from the kitchen. The colors vanish and I let out a sigh of disappointment. Standing up I walk out my bedroom door and into the kitchen where the table is, and sit in the seat beside my Father. "Hey little buddy." He says smiling at me, I smile back at him. Mother brings two plates over and places each in front of us, I look over at the counter and see her plate. Perfect time to practice Seto! Just don't mess up. I stare at the plate and concentrate, the plate soon glows a very faint purple color and levitates an inch before dropping back down. I frown and look at my Dad who is looking at me with an encouraging smile. "Maybe next time buddy." He says. I nod my head, Mother grabs her plate and sits down, I look down at the plate in front of me and smile a bit. Steak. "Its okay Seto, you just need to practice sweetheart." My Mother tells me. I nod my head again and start to eat. It's quiet for awhile till there is a knock on the door, Mom and Dad both look at each other with concerned faces. "Seto why dont you go to your room..." My Mother says. Mom and Dad slowly get up and start to head to the door cautiously, I start to walk to my room. I stood at the frame of my door and jump when I hear a scream, Mother comes running to me scared. "Seto I need you to go to your room and hide okay? We are playing a game okay, the game is to hide and not get caught understand?" She says. She hugs me and runs into the other room, I run into my room and silently close the door and hide in my closet, closing the door enough to see yet be hidden from sight.

I hear what sounds like a gun, then someone's heavy foot steps in the hallway slowly making its way to my room. I try to calm my breathing and stand as still as I can, the door slowly opens with a squeak, the light from the hallway leaves a shadow of a man standing in the frame of the door. "Look everywhere, he's in this house somewhere." The man in the door says. I put both of my hands on my mouth to keep from making any noises as the man steps in my room. The shadowy figure of the man glides around the room, looking everywhere. The man stops in the middle of the room and I faintly see his eyes, with the little light that I have, slowly make its way over to the closet that I was hiding. My thoughts are racing as he steps closer and closer, my breathing getting rapid as his hand encloses the knob. Think Seto, think! The fireworks! I quickly get ready to do the spell and as soon as he opens the door I say it. "Πυροτεχνήματα!" I yell. Colors fly everywhere leaving the man blinded for a moment, the perfect time for me to escape. I run as fast as I can out the door and sprint to the front door. But as soon as I get there my stomach turns to knots and I can already feel the vomit trying to make its way out just from the site, my Mom and Dad lay there dead, a sword in my Father's stomach, and another looks like it went through my Mother's neck, killing her instantly. I ran out of the house, tears streaming down my face, stomach feeling worse the farther I got from the house. I ran as far as I could till I couldn't no more, I was tired of running, I was sleepy, hungry, and heartbroken. I let myself fall to the ground and just cried into the ground hoping that crying will somehow help, but I knew it wouldn't. I cried so much that I had gotten the hiccups, but I didn't care, all I wanted was my Mommy and Daddy, but they were gone. I have no one to love, and no one to love me. I am alone. "Are you okay there little one?" A voice asks me. I look up and see a lady looking at me with concern. The lady comes up to me, getting on her knees and smiles at me. "N-no m-my M-M-Mommy a-and D-D-Daddy are g-gone!" I say. She hugs me and keeps repeating 'its okay' while I cry into her shoulder. That night I went home with the lady, and she became my new Mother, her name was Lucy.
