Once, somewhere in the vast world there was a kingdom. Just like any other in the world, they grew and developed alliances, enemies, and had wars, lost people, gained people, and come back from the brink of disaster more than once.
In the summer before the 113th King's coronation, an Oracle presented themselves in front of the Royal Court with a warning.
Danger is coming.
From where will be impossible to see, but it will cause unrelenting chaos throughout an entire kingdom, if not the world. The Oracle rambled of flames, monsters the size of mountains, and worldly destruction.
After this, the soon-to-be-King sent word to the rest of the world, alerting them of the upcoming danger. The Oracle had just said 'A Kingdom', not any specific one, so all of the world's leaders had to come together to figure out first, what is this danger?
Months pass with no sign of anything strange, but the Oracle is plagued with visions of chaos, death, gore, and monsters. Then came the vision of Heroes. Perhaps they were only just born, but that was the hope the world needed. So the search began for the signs of the heroes.
Then the cause of the impending doom revealed itself, long before the heroes ever begin to shine.
A magic user with vast amounts of power, dangerous power able to create and control living beasts. Eventually the dark magic affected the wildlife around the evil lair of the Villain, surrounding the dark castle with various monsters created from normal animals, as well as the ones created by the Dark Prophet. And these monsters weren't just larger than the humans they terrorized, many were comparable to the legends of Giants.
Giants?...
What Legends?
The giants that roamed the world long before people, violent and destructive, murderous creatures that dominated for thousands of years. The only real evidence of their existence are the massive skeletons littering the world, along with the strangely structured caves in the sides of towering mountains. No one had ever seen one though. And many of the skeletons have been broken down into useful products.
But now... Well it seems like some of the monsters summoned to terrorize this world are eerily similar.
Could a human magic caster summon ancient giants to conquer the world?

Yo, this is kinda the idea. Not really tho, just part of it. There are a lot of massive time jumps, and I'm not gonna lie none of this is gonna make sense for a little while. Or ever if I never finish this. So, I hope you liked this first piece, and I'm gonna go write the next one. The first chapter is gonna open up the actual story. Like present day not a before the bad incident typa thing.

FantasyHow can one kid do anything to save the world? That's impossible. Not in a situation like this. The Oracle said he was the one though. So he was taken away from his home and trained to fight. Trained to use an ability that no one was even confident...
