P.O.V CASEY
***
You'll have to excuse me for this interruption at an unconventional time such as this but I have to pry my eyes away from the pillars at some point. I often lose myself in the lives of my fellow elemental's through the looking glass, but i'll explain all that in a moment because I see that some of you look a tad confused. I mean just who is this stranger who has unexpectedly interrupted the first person narration of one of my don't-know-it-yet friends Marcy Montgomery. There's also the why of having a multiple perspective story told in first person if their was to be more than one aspect. All good question, I will be more than happy to explain but first, allow me to properly introduce myself.
I am Casey White, a full blooded air elemental. Guardian of the Elemental temples in the peaceful Aire Tribe Mountain Community. What you were just experiencing was a glimpse through one of the looking glasses. There are five of them in total, four on the outskirts and one in the middle, a solid glass prism waiting to be opened. Surrounding it, sculpted of pure glass is a pillar shaped as each of the four elements; fire, of which we were just observing, water, earth, and mine, air.
When the time comes for a new pure blood to join the ranks of ultimate power the surface of the pillar will reveal the lives of the elemental until they are claimed by the original Elemental Gods, I'm sure the white headed snow-boy will explain everything eventually.
I don't know the future or anything like that if that's what you're wondering. I could only wish I was all omniscient, no unfortunately it's more of a watch it in the present as it happens. Like a movie, I guess, except you can't hit pause because it'll continue playing with or without you.
Well, now, that's not true for mine of course, though it does currently shine brightest. No, the wind symbol is instead locked on a picture of air blowing through my homeland from when I was merely six months old. I was claimed early, because of my psychotic guardians, but my story is not the one you will be reading just yet. I know, it doesn't bother me one bit ;) nah, you'll learn about me soon enough. Your primary focus should be on what kind of trouble is brewing in our wake like why the wind is growing stronger, and the water pillar is crumbling.
I guess that the lack of the glowing earth pillar is still a good sign, Though I really wish I could see who my opposite in power is but for the moment it is to remains dark. Why? Well even I don't know that.
Still the odds are not good for those laying low as Major and Minor Elemental's because by no means is what happening in our realm natural, but it gives you and I the opportunity to peek into more than one person's life and try to piece together the clues so that when the big one hits we both can be ready. So, seekers of the great beyond, sense you're watching me through your own special looking glass I feel compelled to share my temples with you.
It's not exactly like I have anything else to do but watch and wait for something that the Queen of Fire mentioned. There's something unsettling about the Goddess of the elements meddling around in the lives of our heroines and villains but Sister Aire said to just let it ride out.
In fact, since you're here already would you, if you don't mind, could you watch over the temples for me? I could really use a nap, one can only stay awake for several days on end before collapsing from exhaustion. Us purebreds, pardon the term, need our rest too.
Go ahead and watch either screen. The red fire looking glass on the next chapter will continue you on the path of our heroine Marcy, or you could skip a few chapters when the temple becomes available and figure out what our mysterious Water Blooded fellow is doing behind the scenes.
I recommend watching both our characters so you can fully fill me in on why the world is warming, the oceans are unsettles, the earth is quaking, and the air is blowing harder. If you must choose one path, I recommend sticking with Marcy. Her story seems to be panning out as we speak but also because theirs nothing's more fun than a girl's perspective ;)

What is this? I have changed perspectives like Casey said? It must mean together we have figured stuff out. Stay tune, the looking stones shall unveil the story soon.
