To start it off, I'll be telling you some about the structure of the Six Kingdoms. First, before I go explain a bunch, here are the definitions of some words you are probably not familiar with.
Connect: a kid marked from birth by a specific element and in between the ages of 8-12, are transported to Scoria and more specifically, the Six Kingdoms; they are sent to one of the kingdoms based on their element and live in a orphanage/training camp up until they are 18 and there they are taught the main subjects plus swordplay, archery, hand-to-hand combat, basic survival skills and, of course, how to control the elemental powers all connects receive once they are transported to Scoria
Sacred Animal: legendary animals that were said to roam Scoria in the days before the Six Kingdoms; each are associated with one of the kingdoms as a symbol
The 2nd Reality: this is the word Scorians use when talking of the people who live on Earth, the place where connects come from; Scoria is much older than it, which is why Scoria is referred to as the 1st Reality
Two-form: people who inhabit just about anywhere there are animals; once they turn eight, they have the ability to change into an animal chosen for them that is suitable to their habitat; they look similar to connects (humans) but after the first time they change to their animal, they get some physical attributes of their animals (ex: if they change to a bird, their hair might change to feathers); also the more powerful animals are rarer for a two-form to get, the common ones are birds and rodents
The next six chapters will each be all about one of the kingdoms. If there is a word I missed, I'll come back and add it.
