The Myth - The Fading Eden
7 chapitres En cours d'écriture Contenu pour adultesAccording to one of myths in the Universe, the God of Chaos, Azahar, united with the mother of stars, Thilija. From the merging of darkness and light, their daughter Shelaya was born, who, as a demigoddess, was granted the unique gift of creation from the Source of Being-a neon river of magical essence. Shelaya created Eden. This secluded place in the Universe became their happy sanctuary until Thilija's death. Seeing her mother's light fade away in Azahar's arms, Shelaya, in despair, fled into Space-Time, haunted by the thought that her father was to blame for Thilija's death. Meanwhile, Eden began to wither, slowly turning into a barren wasteland, consuming every spark of energy in its path like a plague.
Tired of running, Shelaya established the Crystal Kingdom, ruled by strict laws of order, obedience, and lack of empathy. People, granted access to the Source of Being, became ideal warriors and healers; men wielded magical flame and were immune to pain, while women received healing abilities. Each blessing from the Spirit of Milites enhanced their powers but also tightened the bonds on their souls. The Kingdom, surrounded by a high mountain chain, was completely sealed off from the outside world and the faithless. Inquisitors and Priestesses sent on crusades, burning the submission to Queen Shelaya into the hearts of the uninitiated. However, beneath the seemingly happy and prosperous Kingdom, a rebellion against her rule was brewing. The unfolding war between Darkness and Light, ruthless lawfulness, and the freedom of the heart inevitably drew in the main characters: Emir Cavalleys, an ambitious low-born Guardian; Seku Val'Larnez, a prince of a powerful Elven house; and Nicola Smith, a 28-year-old from rural Canada. Tasked with saving the Universe threatened by the spreading wasteland, they set out for the Crystal Kingdom.
