Prologue
The Seven Factions and Life's Beginning
The planet Kyron is split up into seven factions. They are: the Dark, the Light, the Wind, the Earth, the Water, the Fire, and the Sound faction. All the inhabitants of Kyron possess the elemental power of the faction in which they are born. The Earth faction is divided into the Rock and Nature factions. Some of the factions have evolved to higher beings. The Light faction is a peaceful one, consisting of mighty angels. Though their power and magic is great, one faction stands one step higher, the Dark faction. It is considered the strongest of the seven factions, and consists of mainly demons. This faction is known for its hatred and cruelty. This faction is known to show no love, mercy, or compassion towards anyone. All strangers were either imprisoned or killed. This faction is detested by all, but tolerated in fear of full-scale invasion. The demons can take human form, but this inhibits their powers and magic greatly. The kingdom of the Dark faction was known for its powerful warriors and kings. One demon born in this nation was fated to be the king of the dark nation. He had been born into the royal line. He was given the name of Kazuma Ohtori. At a young age he studied and trained to be a mighty demon-warrior. Throughout the training, he was discovered to have strange powers that no other demon had. He was also different from the rest of his kind, by how he loathed his demonic powers and the destruction they caused. Therefore he always remained in his human form. He soon became a master of the sword and of magic, even in his weak form. His father watched strictly over Kazuma until his training was complete. Many of the Dark nation, knew that he would one day be the mightiest demon of all. When Kazuma had completed his training, his father bestowed upon him, the mighty blade, Azaroth. Seeing this, his brothers became enraged in jealousy and plotted a scheme to have him banished from the nation. Only then would they have a chance to ascend the throne.
The brothers killed one of the sacred beasts and made the evidence point to Kazuma. Their father, in anger over the forbidden murder, exiled him on pain of death. Kazuma left with nothing but his sword, his clothes, and a pack of provisions. He then journeyed towards the Fire nation in search of atonement for what he'd never done.
Soon after, the dark faction began to invade the neighboring factions. The dark armies massacred anyone and everyone with no mercy. Kazuma received this news and news of his father's assassination. He then knew that his brothers were behind the invasion. He then decided to avenge his father by fighting his own nation. He had been traveling for a week, when he spotted demon troops marching east. He decided to face the Dark faction's army on the border of the Fire nation.
