HELLO and Welcome. Thank you for reading my Newest Story: Tales of Symphonia: Birth of New Sins. Now, the only thing that remotely relates to TOS, is the Mana Tree, The Goddess, Elves, racism, and some other things. My Chapters may be a little short. I am a horrible writer, but I do it because its fun the prologue!!!
Prologue
Long ago, the world was a dead wasteland. Without grass, trees, without air, it was just mass, taking up space. The planet's mana, life energy, was almost completely depleted. However, an angel from the heavens descended upon the barren land. With her mystic powers, she rejuvenated the world. She gave moisture to the land, and transformed that living hell into a lush paradise. The world became aware of its new life and embraced it. The reborn planet became home of countless creatures, all living under the watchful gaze and blessings of the angel, the Goddess Martel. As a final mark, she planted a giant seed, which germinated into a tree to show the world was healthy. She named this tree, the Great Tree Gaia, named after the planet.
The creatures lived on an enormous continent in the middle of Gaia. In its center, the great tree valored, surrounded by a large ocean, know as the Craelon Ocean. Rivers flowed endlessly from the ocean. The world was truly a haven, the mortal version of Heaven. The tree had another importance how ever: It showed the mana count, and if it were to die, the world shall as well
Three races flourished in the world: Humans, Elves, and Demons. Humans were gifted with the ability to built and use complex tools. They were skilled craftsmen in the art of black smithing and created many fine blades and bows. The Elves, however, had trained in a different kind of trade. They were master of the elements and had deep bonds with nature, in its non-tampered form. Blessed with high intellect, they learned how to manipulate mana, and created magic with this knowledge. Many elves became philosophers and sages. The last creatures were the Demons; damned beings, living as a curse to the all the lived on Gaia. These monsters rampart there territory, slaying all that entered. They have powerful bodies, swift reflexes, and incredible vitality and strength.
All was peaceful in the land. Till a power struggle over the mana caused a great war between the races. This war, called the Grand Irease war, caused the great tree to wither away and die. Grieving over the loss of the tree and the countless lives lost, the goddess spilt the land into three continents, one for each raced. The Craelon Ocean pressed out, drifting the continents away from one another, cutting off almost all connection between them. The goddess then ascended back to the heavens above, delivering this edict:
"I came to this world, sensing this realm was in great pain. And again, if this planet is in peril once more, I shall return to her and save it from damnation. You must wake me, for if I sleep, this world shall die."
The humans created the "Chosen", a brave soul who shall test themselves with the trail of the Angels, and become the host for the goddess and return mana to this world. The elves followed this act, as did the demons for there own selfish gain. There has only been one man who had ever proven his worth to the angels above. He was an elf named Judah. And as he died after saving this world, the goddess returned back into Heaven, delivering her edict once again.
Many millennia have past, and no new vessel has been accepted to be the host for the goddess. However, one girl just may prove to be a suitable sacrifice for the goddess. This is a tale of her journey with a boy named Yukiketsu.
