A few hours later, after it was insured that ethereal was fine, she and sensai the word sounded weird on her tongue walked down the halls of a building she did not know of, her following behind this man for the past minutes, she now wore a long thin but elegant robe they called me a kimono reached her ankle which was folded on her cleavage and a material that reminded her of a corset around her waist yet it was loose and allowed her mobility from the weist down.
The both of them kept walking through a hall in silence as they walked past dozens of paintings and portraits, still being jumpy from this morning ethereal held an air of hostility towards the man she followed behind.
She looked up at the towering paintings that hung orderly on the golden themed walls, each portrait presenting a story more unique than the last to the point that she didn't notice him abruptly stop.
The man let out a sigh as he raised his index finger and thumb towards his temple, seemingly calculating his next words carefully.
" Around 7 hundred and 64 thousand years ago-" he began as the girl narrowed her eyes "-to were the first recordings of history were found,people were known to be born with supernatural powers to which you now call arts. It was discovered that there were 9 arts that were classified as the arts of
Water, earth ,fire,air, animal,nature, energy,time and space to which was divided into the movement of oneself through space or the creation of something that involved the laws of it; teleportation and reality.
The wilders of these powers separated and chose leaders, beginning of what is now known as the 9 kingdoms. Each kingdom had one and only one art, it was determined what art you had through the colour of your hair and eyes.
It was as so for millenia's until the breach between these kingdoms was crossed and people were born with an art not associated with their kingdom, this, was foolishly overlooked by the 18 kings and Queens,though some tried to warn they did not listen.Until two twins form the Jikan kingdom (time kingdom) were born with unknown arts due to their unique hair and eye colour yet again it was overlooked.
That was the begining, from then, onwards the following generation a human would grow, possessing not 1 but 2 or more arts from birth, this caused a global shift of power as many wars were declared, crime rates increased, it was like this for 27 years until an agreement was made between the 9 kings and queens and it was written.
That all born with or without their kingdoms art or more would be banished to a new land were their 'kind' would live without any inconveniences,the land they were castout to was the 10th addition to the kingdoms it's name long forgotten due to the 3 districts that divided it, the kingdom of Tsuiho.
Though the very first people to see the new kingdom were the twins that supposably caused this.
The first twin was at peace that people like him were away from the judgemental society and focused on planning a new better place, on the other hand the other twin deemed it humiliating to be separated and cast aside like children and claimed that they were simply afraid of their power and he plained to show them what his unknown art could do.
That story is short lived except for the good twin who build a new home, he alone could not rule an entire nation so he divided it into the three smaller kingdoms that are called the districts of Takill, miyamizu and Cikena.
Takill mainly having fire, teleport and air, miyamizu having animal, water, energy and reality and Cikena bearing nature, time and earth.
The good twin after years of self research figured that his art was a combination of all arts that he later named the TCC art, with it the wilder had the ability to Transfer,Combine and Copy any art.But his other brother yearned to have this full power for he could only transfer and copy, he craved to be able to combine all the arts he had collected, so the good twin transfered his art to the rulers of a district, the very district you call home,cikena. And my art has been passed down from generation to generation.
Each generation represented the 9 arts that have been bestowed in your ancestors for centuries until-" ethereal looked at him with wide eyes as she processed this new information, the man slowly but confidently turned around to face her "-you. Ethereal Omoshiro, are the 10th generation, you and you alone possessed all 9 and the TCC art from the very day you were born,the power I tried so very hard to keep hidden from my brother , and I am sensai Gin tokitomo the first wilder of the full power of the TCC" he spoke lowly but proudly as if it were an unspoken truth to him, a lazy small smile present on his face, while ethereal felt as if a brick had been thrown onto her face from the shear weight of this. As if her simple normal life was a harmless lie she felt confused, sad,scared and straight up offended yet.it all made some sense,her head was spinning with theories even she didn't know we're true, it was overwhelming how fast everything was,she was happy that she atleast had a purpose she knew she did but what she went through made her innocent belief in that slowly disappear, she felt another wave of of hot tears this time she had no idea what the were from all she new was that she felt passive happiness.
She felt a hand on her hand that ruffled her hair in the most gentle of ways that she could of mistaken it for a feather "...am sorry," Gin said solemnly as he stood there "...for everything,but you are not alone" his voice was soft, low and slow but was still grounded "Rest now, for tomorrow you shall meet the others" and in that moment,no matter how much she fought it a single tear left her, and ran down her check as she was met with a short embrace from the heterochromatic haired man before her, with only nothing in her mind that gave her a sense of comfort,confusion,joy and betrayal one thing repeated itself that it now sounded like a chant in her head, between question and statement.
'There are others'
