Prolog

Earth 75000 B.C.

A strange stone had fallen from the sky landing on the edge of the first civilization. Those who were curious enough went to investigate the fallen object. This was a mistake that had started a chain reaction.

Those who arrived that have seen the gem began to want it as this object as a trophy or for its beauty or for its value. This stone was giving off a faint essence that was changing people in evil ways. Soon civil wars broke out over the stone. People killing others just to get at it to claim it as their own. This gem had watched this go on for a few years. By this time it has stopped radiating the essence. The radiated essence has left few people but the most of the population was still feeling the affects of the energy.

At this point the gem had fallen into the hands of a kind soul who wanted all the madness to end and to know why everyone wanted this gem what was so special about it. But an enemy of this man's family whom I shall not name had found out about the stone. After sneaking into the kind man's home where he proceeded to stab him in the head 3 days after he obtained it. Where he was bleeding out from his head wound his blood got on the gem he was holding.

A strange reaction had started when the energy of the gem met his blood. Some how this caused the gem stone to glow then absorbed the blood that was on it before vanishing from the man's hand. This was when the first guardian was chosen. Soon this dieing man's wounds began to rapidly seal stopping the bleeding. This man started to waking up in the puddle of his own blood.(I'm sorry but the ancient enscription is too badly damaged for me to continue reading this part sorry it's like the damage here was done on purpose and not do to errosion. It's like something or someone was trying hide something that happened. I can tell because I've seen it before. But I'll read the rest that isn't.) Then began the slow painless transformation. The transformation reflected what was in ones heart. Slowly his body was consumed by feather the colors of fire. The process finished with in a few days. When it was over he looked like a cross between a phoenix and man. Head of the proud bird. Hands and feet like man. With the wings of a phoenix for arms. After the first gaurdian's death the gem remained dorment for a over a century. Before a new one was chosen. this kept going on until the 5th generation. after the 5th it was lost to time. And was only recently rediscovered in a dig site in china by my father. He found it in a clay pedent. This pendent had 2 dragons molded circling the gem as if they were gaurding it. He gave it to me before he died
