Dear everybody, I deleted the previous story because I wanted to start completely over. So here is the new improvised version.

The Forbidden Kingdom 2

Prologue

In the days before the Monkey King was born out of the mountain of fruit and flowers, long before the Jade emperor ruled, long before humankind or the eight immortals even existed the world was not solid, but was color. Each color was a magic that was dark and deep, a chi magic that could not be restrained by any mortal or immortal. But as the world solidified those who became immortal found that they could master portions of it.

It was this unpredictable magic that some could use, never control or master, but access. They were born apart of it. It was this magic also that created certain things, the peach fruit from whence the immortal elixir came from, the mountain of fruit and flowers, even other immortal secrets and things that could make one immortal. In countries far away they talked about the fountain of youth, and this too was part of that magic.

Sometimes the magic was destined to be held by others. But whom it could be held by could never be predicted. Well, almost never. There was one who held the power to see such things. She could see them because whoever held this power could change things that would affect humankind in many ways.

Her name was Amaterasu and later she became known in Japanese mythology as the sun goddess. But in reality she was a very powerful immortal, the first of the immortals, and one that was forgotten. She was not counted among the eight immortals, in fact the eight immortals knew nothing of her existence. Not even the Jade emperor knew.

No, she was too powerful for them and she wandered off in her own fantasies. But one power she had also, which was why she was called a goddess and not an immortal. She had power over life, the creation of new life, new creatures, and she had the power to weave chi magic into the essence of an unborn, child, giving them the ability to have access to this magic. She was all powerful. It was she who gave the eight immortals this power.

And she could take it away too if it weren't for that she could not bear to do so to another person. Once this magic was weaved into them to remove it would kill them and she never wanted to be responsible for another person's death. So she would weave the potential of this magic into someone else to finish the task for her.

And so it began many hundred years before our current day. Long before, Amaterasu saw that the Jade Warlord would defy her so she searched the future and saw two worthy souls she would give to women, scattered throughout time, in which she would weave her magic into them. Their mission was one that they would know when they were born.

And so it began.
