Michael Whitaker was raised to follow the light of the Goddess Daichi. He did so happily and without question until the day his mother died. Blaming the Goddess for the misfortunate that befell her the youth denounced his faith and has lived without it ever since.
Change is coming. A great storm brews that could plunge the continent of Mont into a darkness not seen for thousands of years, should the champion of the Goddess refuse to answer her call.

Broken Guardians - Birth of the Netherbinder
When the lives of the Bär siblings are upended by whispers of an ancient prophecy, they are drawn into an adventure that spans worlds. Transported to Yasái, a planet ruled by elemental forces and long shrouded in darkness-they uncover the truth about their family's cursed legacy. Years ago, their father's failed attempt to defeat the malevolent Maitúi doomed Yasái to oppression under the Fire Guild. Now, the siblings are named the fabled Heirs, chosen to restore balance to a fractured world. Allied with the enigmatic Mëji tied to their family's past, Jack, Megan, and Kyle must navigate treacherous waters and dangerous lands in their quest to unravel the secrets of their heritage. As they confront ruthless enemies and seek answers from the Oracle, they begin to uncover their own dormant abilities-and the crushing weight of the destiny they now share. For Jack, the stakes are even higher. Marked by the Spirit of Air, he is destined to become the Netherbinder, the one who must unite the elemental spirits to challenge Maitúi's rise to power. But as ancient prophecies twist into perilous realities and the fate of Earth entwines with Yasái, the siblings must confront a haunting question: Can they succeed where their father failed, or will the same darkness that looms over Yasái consume them too?
Taken by Surprise (Sugawara x Daichi)
Elves and humans had lived peacefully in their own kingdoms for years. That was until the king got greedy, wanting to take over the elves land. The elves, not wanting to lose their magical lands, fought for it. After years and years of bloodshed, both rulers thought it'd be best to stop this war, and cut off each other from their lives. Many lives had been lost, including the king's. All that's left is burning hatred from the other kingdom. Sugawara is just a simple water blood elf, a big dreamer with an even bigger heart. He knows about the grudge between the humans and elves, but can't seem to figure out why this rivalry has been going on for three hundred years. Though his studies have been flowing in more and more, the thought still lays at the back of his mind. Just to relieve stress, he goes to his secret spot, just to see an unsuspected visitor. Daichi was raised to hate elves, the only problem, he doesn't. He's read the books, heard the stories, and even took a hunting course, but he doesn't want to kill them. His parents are super supportive of him, but they don't like that he doesn't want to join the family business. Too much pressure was put on him, so he went into the forest and found a pond, not knowing there was someone watching him. (Boyxboy)Complete
