the world is ruled by three species. the land belongs to humans, the oceans seas and arctic belong to the atlanteans which evolved from humans centuries ago, and the underworld is ruled by the demons, an ancient race going further back than humanity. the humans live on land, atlanteans live underwater, and demons serve as the staff and gaurds of the eternal prison for the evil people who die, which is known as hell. the humans are ruled by an emperor, the atlantians serve a king and queen, and the ruler of hell is called a Satan, the original being Lucifer. Demons live eight times longer than humans, and when they die they just either become a PRISONER of hell or go to heaven for their labor. Atlanteans live twice as long as humans, and they either go to heaven or hell. just like humans. except for ghosts. but that doesn't matter right now. the three species have hated each other and have foight many wars against one another. but only twice have all three species locked horns with one anpther at one time, in one war. The first Great War ended with the treaty determining humans cant leave the land the atlanteans stay under the seas and oceans, and the demons don't leave the underworld. there were five centuries of peace, but then the Satan was shot. atlantean king Kriten and human Emperor Sawquen both said it had been done by the other. a second three-pronged war broke out. but then 5 families emerged that stopped the war. 5 families, the first and only five families, to have children who were a hybrid of two of the three species. The world leaders agreed on peace since they couldn't agree on where the hybrids would live. two lines were half atlantean half human, and two lines were half demon half human. they aren't as important. then the fifth hybrid family emerged. the Demon General Neroeg Chronny married the atlantean princess, Frewa, and had five hybrid children. they were half ATLANTEAN half DEMON. these books follow the lives of the children of Chronny line.
