Adventure Awaits: Tales of Elementia

Prologue

One day, on the side of the ocean, standing at the edge of the cliff, a boy stares off into the sunset, The gentle breeze of the ocean winds blow softly, pushing the leaves of a tree, and petals of flowers fly across the skies. And as that boy looked toward the sunset, he thought to himself as he stared into the sun, “I wonder what the world looks like outside of Elementia…?”. As we know, Elementia is more than just land with Oceanic seas surrounding it. It’s its world and Universe, after all, there’s more to explore than just staring off into the distance and counting the stars as they are. Everyone in this world is always so surprised that this Mysterious world has so much in store for them if they are adventuring. Not even these world’s heroes know the rest of the planet itself, not even a little. But that all will change because two Heroes decided to roam the earth and figure out the mystery behind this world and its meaning…

We start our day with the Heroes of Elementia. At the HQ, one of the heroes is reading a book to a bunch of kids in a library. He reads with such kindness and confidence, changing his voice at certain moments of the book, bringing the kids' surprised expressions. He creates from his hands Magic Dust to project the story to life, and the kids look in awe.

?: “And finally, after a moment of nothing and silence… Our light, our hero, rises from the darkness and, from his hand, holds the legendary sword, shattered and broken, but the hero was victorious.”

?: “The Hero returns to the kingdom, wounded, hurt, and injured… The Hero falls to the ground, holding the broken blade one last time, and saying to it… ‘Thank you, Kiri…’.”

?: “The Hero closes his eyes for the final time as he slowly passes away with a smile because he knows he can’t always have a happy or bad ending.”

?: “But, all was not lost though… a few days later, our hero lays in bed, bandaged up, and sleeping…”

?: “It seems his allies and friends had saved him from death,”
*Uses magic dust to re-create the page*

?: “His friends and allies stayed by his side as he lay in bed, heavily sleeping… so calmly…”

The storyteller stops his magic and closes his book. The kids were saddened but happy at the end, the Storyteller tells each kid to remember that adventure awaits them at every turn and every moment, but tells them to fight for those they love and never for themselves.

Teacher: “All right, kids, thank Mr. FS for that wonderful story!”

Kids: *Altogether* “Thank you, Mr. FS!”

FS: “Aww, thanks, everyone. I hope all of you loved that little story, and remember,”

Kids: *Altogether* “No mission too small, no sacrifice too great!”

The children cheered and burst into laughter, their teacher telling them to get ready to leave, The kids waved and said goodbye to FS, but one, before going, walked up to FS with a Toy in hand.

?: “Umm…" This is for you…”

FS: “Oh? What’s this?”

?: “It’s a… Toy for you… I made it out of a doll and made it into you…”
“Do you like it?”

FS: “For me? You shouldn’t have.”
*Takes the Doll*
“What’s your name, kid?” *looks at the doll*

?: “N-Nancy…”

FS: "Nancy?”
*Chuckles* “Thanks for the gift kiddo, I’ll keep it safe from now on.” *Smiles*

As he smiles, Nancy feels a little heartbeat in her heart… But it all came to an end to soon. She suddenly wakes up from her bed, and looks around her room… Noticing it was all but just a Dream… She tears up a bit… She stands up from her bed and gets out, as she does, she looks at a Picture of an old, withered picture from when she was a kid. A Picture… of children and an adult. On the other side of the image, it was torn, ripped…
