Hunter X Hunter: Nen Feaster; Part 1: The Boy and the Burden

Introduction

          In distant lands, two races are at war. A race of monstrous beasts known as the Chimera Ants, have risen up to take what they please. The king of the beasts has just been birthed, and he and his elites have taken up roots in a land known as Gorteau, killing its previous ruler and claiming the title for themselves. A group known as the Hunter's Association are forming plans to take on and kill these creatures before they can harm anyone else. However, such a battle will end in catastrophe on both sides, but a new force will soon be upon the battlefield to tip the scales and alter the course of this war.

          There is a small island, more or less forgotten by the massive continents that surround it. This island lacks a name, as nobody has claimed it. Well, it doesn't lack a name, technically speaking. In reality, it has gone by many names. "The Isle of the Strange," "The Backwards Place," "The Overlooked." Many names have passed by. Many are forgotten, many more confused with something else, but the one constant is that... nobody outside remembers that place. Nobody outside remembers its people. A single civilization lies there, and they have lived there for generations. These people were once mighty and powerful, having abilities that would tear apart the seams of reality itself. A power terrifying to outsiders. That changed one day. Now, they live in agony and constant torment. However, there's one boy, since he was old enough to understand things, that wanted to change that; that wanted to bring back that old strength that his proud people once had. Of course, many wished the same thing before he was even a thought in the universe; however, what's different this time, is something chaotic is stirring overseas... something that could change not only that tiny, forgotten island, but the whole world forever.
