Chapter: Prologue
It began a thousand, no, nearly a millennia ago. Yeah, that's right. It was during the age of magic, the age of power...the age of Amazons.
Now I bet you're wondering what this has to do with Amazons? This is called Night Walkers for crying out loud! It has * everything * to do with Amazons. Well, five of them at least.
``````
Around a millennia ago, the world was filled with magic, and the most skilled in this craft were Amazons, women tribesmen. Their entire tribe consisted of women; a man's paradise, if he'd live that long. Let's just say that they didn't want men near them unless absolutely necessary.
They lived in the Amazon, of course, and were very skilled fighters, nary a man could beat them.
Now here is where the Night Walkers come in. You do know what a Night Walker is, right? No? Then let me explain.
There were Amazons of great power in the Kage tribe, five of them in fact. There was the great Rei of Soul, the powerful Makoto of Strength, the remarkable Ami of Intelligence, the vivacious Minako of Love, and the leader of the bunch, the illustrious Serenity of Light. These were the realms that they were most skilled at, these inventors five, and they took delight in experimenting with the power within their realms.
Well...Sometimes experiments go awry. It happened when they were combining light and love, but a little soul got mixed in. Normally these three work well together, but as I said, something went awry. With the soul, came exploding light, and by dawn, they were not the same.
Stone they turned, these five. Though truly, they were still quite alive.
And in the morning, when the other Amazons came, they didn't realize they were one in the same. A sign from the gods they claimed. For so quickly these statues came, at once in the name of the gods they were renamed.
Mars and Rei were now one in the same. Venus and Minako were now part of the game. Jupiter became Makoto's new name, and Mercury was Ami's new name. But one was left you see, one that didn't fit in with the average gods they believe. The one you see, was Serenity, who was eventually believed to be the moon goddess Selene.
These statues, they believed, were the work of the gods. Their beliefs were proved true in their minds, for every morning they weren't in the same place as last time. Under the moon they came to life you see, and with that they became paler than you or me. That is how the Night Walkers came to be.
````
Now you're probably wondering, who is this man talking to me? How does he know this much about the Night Walkers?
I am Prince Endymion of Olympia. Still you ask, how do I know so much about them if I live so far away? Well, I met one of them, even though I didn't know it then.
