Children of the Cosmos

(Rewrite)

It was a world that would seem completely similar, but eerily different, everything in the universe had an order and that was the way it was, no one questioned it. After years of living, Ambrose, the Great Star of the West, began to question the Order of the Cosmos.

The Sun, The Great Star of All, every four thousand years would mate with the Moon, The Mother Luna, and a new planet would be born from this union and added to the vast universe. But Ambrose, lusting for the beautiful Luna, disguised himself as the Sun, and took his place in the bedroom. From this union a Sani was born, a split being: one half star, one half planet; for although the Sun was a Star, the Moon was an ancient planet whose power had waned.

Upset that Ambrose had broken the Order, he was punished, but not severely enough. For when the next mating was to begin, Ambrose did the unthinkable.

The North Star had always been in charge of watching a land they called Gaia, known to you as Earth, the Cosmos feared that the Light of the North Star, Orsin, would die out soon. Orsin courted the South Star, Laspeera, guardian of the Land of Briell, and a new star was born to replace Orsin.

At this time, Ambrose had once again laid a sleeping spell on the Sun, sending him into a dormant slumber, so that he was able to slip his way into Luna's bedchamber. However, Ambrose had much bigger plans for the Cosmos. Still disguised as the Sun, the West Star was able to sneak in the chamber of the offspring of the North & South. There he killed the child, known as Doran, in hopes that his son would take place as one of the Guardians. He sealed the young stars powers in a special crystal known as the Lightspur and threw the crystal at Gaia. Ambrose's son, Scyren, was given the orders to follow suit after the crystal and break the power held within with the Sword of Luna, a special sword that he had stolen from the Moon that held magical properties that he couldn't begin to comprehend.

When Ambrose was caught and his plans revealed, he was sealed away in crystal in the Darkest side of the Cosmos. There he waited.

People that have always lived in the Cosmos were allowed to leave, the only restriction they had was to return within a year for over time, their powers would wane away. But a year of our time is far different than theirs and can last for many of our Earth years. Depending on the strength of the person, it could take years for their powers to completely disappear; some lost them fully after a year. Scyren found this an issue, as the Order decided to punish him for his assistance in his father's crimes. The Great Star of All stripped Scyren of all his powers and cast pieces of his soul into the four corners of Gaia where they became inborn traits of newborn babies. Not only would Scyren have to search for the Lightspur, he would also have to recover the missing parts of his soul. Not wanting to disappoint his father in his failure, Scyren instead sought out a group of Sorcerers, who knew of the Cosmos and drew their power from it. From them, Scyren would be able to regain the power he needed to complete his task.

When Scyren's soul was splint, one very important piece, the heart of his soul, was reincarnated into an infant born to the rulers of the land of Qia, a beautiful land in the Kingdom of Vashti. As the Lady Lucrezia embraced her newborn son, she noticed that his once blue eyes clouded over before they flashed to reveal a brilliant amethyst color and a strange birthmark in the shape of a phoenix appeared on his left shoulder blade. Taking it as a sign of blessing, she rejoiced in her new babe. Lucrezia and her husband, the Lord of the land of Qia, known as Milliardo spent many years raising the child they had named Duo. Duo had never questioned his existence in the world, or the Order of the Cosmos, until one day, as a young boy, he saw what appeared to be a star falling from the Moon.
