Forever Linked

Three millennia ago the world was in a state of Chaos. Creatures were killing humans without mercy and the Gods could not intervene themselves. To save their dwindling power and keep order to the kingdoms of Greece they chose eight teenagers to become the defenders of mankind. The eights teens spent the rest of their life defeating the creatures, with their powers called arts, while attempting to have a normal life. Some fell in love, while others began to hate their very existence. Soon they all died a violent death and were cleansed by Lethe herself.

But their arts proved too strong for even the great river to hide and the eight were reborn again to once again help the gods. They lived the first fourteen years in relative peace, something they always cherished. When their fifteenth birthday hit they were plagued with memories of their past life. The Gods, outraged by these developments, knew if together the children could overthrow them and take the power for themselves. They decided the children were to never meet, they will not know of the others existence, yet each individual would serve their role. The only time they would see each other is when it was vital to the survival of mankind. This worked well for strained relationships but they were constantly reminded of what they had lost.

Now in 2012 new problems have arisen. A new disease is spreading through the world placing people in a comatose state. Humans are not dying when they should and are kept walking. The Fates have broken up and time is unravelling.

It is hoped that this lifetime is different to the others.

Sometimes hope isn't enough.
