    Look, I am just going to say it. I am rich, like rich rich, I mean i am super rich, like you can't start to imagine rich, let me make it simple, whoever you think is the richest person where you are from, if they can't buy their own continent yet they are flat broke in my eyes.
    But honestly, I don't care for money. If you were to ask me "What is the one thing money can't buy?". I won't say anything like love, friend or any of those things. The one thing money can't buy is experience, your first steps, your first words, the first time you got stabbed, nothing is more valuable than experience.
    Money, fame, all those stuff don't matter. If only our ancestors knew this, if they did maybe they would have survived. 
    We have always been at war, fighting against nature itself, against monsters we called elementals and as the name implies, they controlled the elements. There were six classes of them the Fire Lion, The Ice Wolf, The Water Serpent, The Ground Mole, The Lightning Eagle, and the Wind Owl. That is as far as I learned because not long after my history teacher tried to kidnap me, but, this is where the story gets good.  
    So you know the great treasure that all pirates have been looking for, not the city of gold or the great Dodo who eats children who don't listen to their mothers. They found the fountain of youth, yeah mind blowing right.
    This is about how far I learnt until my second history teacher tried to kidnap me as well. So later on I continued learning history and as it turns out the fountain of you was not actually what they thought it was, it was a stream of pure nature, I never really learned how it worked from my Alchemy teacher because as you expected, he also tried to kidnap me. But the basis of it was that everyone has one foundation element that they are most compatible with, and the fountain does some Vudu  produces a crystal. The crystal allows them to control that particular element and no one else can use that crystal. We called these people with Vudu water, Elementalists
    But the problem was if you touch it with your flesh you will die. So they forged it into their weapons, cool right, the pirates who found the fountain sold it to the nearest kingdom they could find. But not long after that fountains like that started appearing all over the world. 
    Sadly not long after this I was kidnapped, this time by my Mathematics and English teachers. But later on it was discovered that the whole plot was orchestrated by my history teacher. Look it's not like my parents didn't run an intensive background check on all these people before hiring them and if you ask me they were excellent teachers, it's just... I am not even sure anymore. Thanks to all those fools I was forced to read the rest by myself.
    Long story short even with all this we barely stood a chance until one Elementalist that will forever be known as the Grand Ruler, killed the elemental king and single handedly slayed half of his army, he was a stage 5 user, which is the highest ranking for elementalists. And now he and his six generals still rule each continent of the world. Well more like their descendants are the ones ruling. Honestly I don't care about politics, I just wanna get out of my house and experience new things. PLEASE COME FIND ME AND KIDNAP ME. I AM SERIOUS!!!!!!!
