Inf: Hello everybody and welcome to the official first chapter of the reboot of Seeker of the Truth!
I will reveal what I revamped for the next few chapters.
if I remember...
now then first off My wonderful huntress Arukas' personality has been changed to be a bit more sassy and smart ass. Also her new look has been made and shall be the cover for the next story, Aka part 2 of the whole storyline!
Maybe..
Now without further adieu, let's begin!
I came upon an opening within a beautiful quiet forest. After traveling for an unprecedented amount of time, I finally reached the little village Ruben, home of the El Tree. My name is Sencho, Sencho Telcoru (センチョ てるこる). I am a young martial artist of age 15. I met with the Red Haired Knight when I was very young, and trained with the Haan family during my journey around the world. I would like to explain my background but that'll have to wait a bit, I'm sure you'd rather learn of my appearance right? I have black wavy hair with a red streak that goes straight across it, and 2 bangs that protrudes both sides. My eye color is dark blue and I wield duel swords that I wear among my hips. I wore a tattered black shirt with bandages that wrapped around my hands, and ragged dark blue pants that sported a red belt that carried sheaths for my swords. This is the clothing I wore during my adventures, since I really have no place to call home I am forced to wonder around Elrios in search for a purpose, as if by impulse. What's Elrios you ask? Well Elrios is a world different from the one you know, a beautiful place with many inhabitants.
But I digress, People have told me that I'm a soft spoken, intelligent individual. But sometimes I can get a bit..."energetic" whatever that means. I already concluded that I may have separate personalities but what triggers the switch is still unknown to me. Although I have yet to find a purpose in Elrios, I do however, have a goal. The reason I am here, just in the outskirts of Ruben, is because of my swords. One of my swords to be precise. My swords were given to me by my father, he always called them Transcendence but I think I'll call it Jikan and Kūkan (時間スペース). He told me that the sword has a hidden secret that will only be unlocked if it is near mass amount of pure energy. My other sword isn't so special. That doesn't matter however. I will eventually replace it, just like I replaced the clothing I described to you earlier.
Back to the matter at hand, The El, a massive blue holy gem filled with life energy would be the only thing I can think of that would cause a distinct reaction from my sword. In fact, it's The El that makes life here sustainable in Elrios in the first place. Though The El isn't what it used to be as it was shattered into a million different pieces all across the world A few centuries back. Luckily, there is a large enough El Shard that is able to sustain life all around Lurensia, the eastern continent I am currently inhabiting is 1 of 2 continents. The other continent, Fluone, is where the Haan family is located (don't ask how I manage to cross the sea, it's a LONG story, and I crossed it a total of 3 times). Unlike Lurensia which only has 1 giant El Shard, Fluone has 4, however, the effects of each of those individual Shards differentiate from each other. Granted they all sustained life, they all also correspond with a different element. Inhabiting Lurensia, The El Shard pleasantly exhibits a green hue, giving the continent a fertile and prosperous environment. Within this area, the Velder Kingdom rules. They make sure everything is all dandy within Lurensia. They're best militia are the Red Knights, a group of very strong individuals who protect Velder from danger. Their leader the Red Haired Knight is regarded as one of the strongest humans in the world. Smaller quantities of this green hue type of El Shard are called the Nature El Shard. We are able to infuse these El Shard's with our weapon to give it attribute related to the Shard you used. Kind of like an RPG game where you can enhance your weapons to give different elemental boosts, or when you infuse it into your armor to give them elemental resistance. It's the same with us...except we're not in an RPG (that would be ridiculous). The El Shards in Fluone, depending on their location will have a blue, cyan, orange, and purple hue, relating to the element of water, wind, and fire, with an addition to darkness.
The El Shard bathed in a blue hue, the Water El Shard, covers the area in beautifully clear and sparkling water. It is located in the southern west of Fluone, inside a city partially submerged in water; the Senance Kingdom, also known as Hamel or the City of Water. The Senance Kingdom has close relations with the Velder Kingdom, often trading supplies or providing help by sending in their knights. Just like Velder, Hamel Knights are very strong individuals lead by their king who is simply known as the White Colossus of Hamel. He has a son but that would be getting too far into the story.
The El Shard that sways with a cyan hue, the Wind El Shard, gives the land a wonderful breeze and encasing it with winds. The place it resides in is called Sander, also known as the City of Sand, is a land with an advanced civilization that creates devices that almost makes you believe you can fly. Although it is a desert area, there is a large lake in the center of the city. Legend states there is a behemoth there.
The El Shard that burns with an orange hue, the Fire El Shard, encases its land with lively heat and refreshing energy. This is where Lanox is. This is where the world's best blacksmiths live. A very industrial place with the biggest, most refreshing hot spring in the world. Rumor has it that a mermaid lives there, but why would a mystical water creature live in a place tainted with flames?
The El Shard that illuminates with a purple hue, the Dark El Shard, surrounds the area with purifying rays and spiritual stability. This is where the Xin Kingdom, also where the Haan family lives. If you like secret/forbidden arts, or demonic/spiritual ability's, this is the place for you. Some say that daylight never shines there, but who knows (I'll never tell). I'll reveal one thing though, the moon is very beautiful. Oh but don't confuse the Dark El Shard with the Dark El. That is a story for another time.
There is however, one more element the El Shard connects with, and that's the Light El Shard. It radiates a blinding light similar to the sun. These Shards only come in small quantities, but no one really knows why there is no large scale Light El on the lands.
Before the shattering of The El, there was one individual who watched over it. She calmed the El when it became unstable, in exchange for her life. The residents of Elrios then decided to name her Lady of El or the El Lady. The only person able to keep the El from being unstable. Many years later, a new Lady of El was elected, and with her came the 6 El Masters that help her govern The El.
The first master, Master of Fire is Rosso. The power of fire is the power of passion, and there is joy to prevent the strength of the fire from overflowing. The Fire El is under their protection.
The second master, Master of Earth is Gaia. She possesses the warmth and richness of the land and protects the continent of Elrios. They watch the Nature El.
The third master, Master of Water is Denif. A combination of coolness and intelligence controls the sea so that it does not overflow onto the land. The Water El is in their control.
The fourth master, Master of Wind is Ventus. The power of the wind energy keeps the universe in motion. The Wind El is cared by them
The fifth master, Master of the Sun is Solace. Elrios was revived due to the power of life and the birth of the sun's power. They have possession over the Light El
The sixth master, Master of the Moon is Ebalon. The power of the moon gives the people of Elrios comfort and security. They never let the Dark El out of their sight.
Each Master was endowed with different skills in order to use the El's power to govern Elrios. They circulate the El's energy to fertilize the land while calming the storm. But on a fateful day; The Master of Sun, Solace, who felt pity for the El Lady, stole her from her domain and they both disappeared, never to be seen again. This is the event that caused The El to explode into millions of pieces. I could go on and on but we don't have time for that do we? Besides, I don't know the whole story yet, no one does. There are however 6 Priest's associated with each element of The El Shard. It can't be a coincidence that there are exactly 6 Priestesses, all corresponding to a different element too. In addition to my sword reacting to smaller El Shards (though they never did much to it), I hoped going to the location the El resides in would trigger some kind of reaction, but I'd be lying if I said that it was the only reason I came here. For some reason, I felt some type of connection with the El, I just can't explain it. There's something at play here, some kind of prophecy, a meaning. Something big is about to happen, I've had this feeling for a while. Maybe once I get there
I'll find the answers I need
Inf: well! Finally completed! First chapter! Yay! Hope you all enjoyed the chapter! See you all next chapter! Auvoir!
