AD 3333,
Earth
"Mother!" Kai cried cheerily. "Look! I solved it!"
The 11-year-old child had an exhilarating smile on his face, and his brilliant hazel pupils were embedded in his eyes like two gems. Shoulder-length white hair flowed behind him as he ran to his mother, carrying sheets of paper.
The one, who this child called his mother, created a stark contrast when compared to him.
She was thin, her face was pale, and the dark patches under her eyes told a tale of great tiredness. Despite these features, she looked extremely beautiful somehow.
Her face shared the enchanting character of the child, and her pupils were hazel as well, just a tinge darker. Long, light blond hair fell over her shoulder like sunlight.
"Let me see," Edith Stormborn said, rubbing her son's head and glancing at the papers. "Oh! You really did it, Kai. This gene sequence... Wonderful! You saved us years of research."
Her words were cheerful, but there was a sadness hidden behind her smile as well.
...
Over 1300 years had passed since the virus Oxycron had struck the planet out of nowhere. In just a few years, it had wiped out most of the human population. By the time the last infected case had passed away, the population was dwindling on its last legs.
The following decades saw an incomprehensible surge in the world's oxygen levels.
The previously assumed fact that the virus didn't affect the animals faced its first challenge when the survivors of the pandemic found a mutated mosquito the size of a human head.
The plants kept breaking their height limits, and animals kept becoming larger and larger.
It was obvious at a glance that some unknown phenomenon was involved in this absurd evolutionary surge, defying the scientific laws as known by the humans.
It was almost said that the Earth had forsaken the human species. Those who had survived were nothing but a part of the food chain, destined to go extinct.
When all seemed lost, Hope finally arrived.
Humans, at the cost of a pyrrhic victory, learned to harness the strength of those enhanced beasts in the form of their Blood Essence by assimilating it into themselves and obtain the power of that beast.
Unfortunately, the beasts kept becoming stronger, and the planet kept becoming harsher, forcing the humans to work upon becoming more powerful. Yet, no matter how they tried, all failed to assimilate over one Blood Essence into their bodies as if there was a heavenly limit onto it.
Thus came the period of great scientific revolution, giving emphasis on research and development based around the Multiple Blood Essence Assimilation.
Humans also began experimenting with selective breeding, trying to pass on their assimilated Blood Essence' characteristics and give birth to the most astute minds with every next generation.
And the one who led the humankind in all this, remaining at the pinnacle of both scientific and mystical stage, was the House Stormborn.
After hundreds of years, two individuals, possessing the greatest minds of all times, rose from this House - Alan Stormborn and Edith Stormborn.
Even when they were kids, the entire human race had burdened their shoulders with the heaviest hope.
A hope, not to end their misery or finish the Multiple Blood Essence Assimilation program, but to give birth to a child.
