} Gravity's Arcana {
Magic…It's all around us its alive, pure magic is inherently good it is the darkness of human hearts that corrupts it, pollutes it, and befouls it.
Humans are far older then science will tell you as is the world long ago when our realm was young Creation the first being genderless, formless, omnipotent that which came from the Heart of Yggdrasil the World Tree… Perhaps the universe tree would be more accurate the multiverse stretches out infinitely across its branches each leaf a reality each cell of that leaf a time line or 'World' if you will.
Only the center line of each leaf is the original world each vein a nexus of reality events that if changed change absolutely everything.
The stem of the leaf is immutable a sequence of events that are eternally absolute
In this world those events begin with this realms incarnation of the first forces by Creation, Magic, Life, Death, Time and Space. Genderless, formless and inter connected.
From them the first ones are born the mothers and fathers of the Fae. Mana the child of magic, The Grim Reaper child of Death, Mother Nature child of Life, Father Time the child born of Time, and The Cosmos child of Space.
And these children paired of birthing the first of the Fae
From Mother Nature and Father Time Came Oberon the king
From The Grim Reaper and The Cosmos Came Titania
And from Mana the formless child the court of first Fae, Burl, Freya, Cronos, and the other High Deities and fairies of our legends.
Oberon and Titania had a child Kaguya and she and Susanoo a child of Mana married and had two sons Hagromo and Hamura, Hamura left no children but Hagromo left two
Ashura and Indra, Ashura left behind nine children from his Union with Gaea
Kurama, Gyuki, Choumei, Saiken, Kokuo, Son Goku, Isobu, Matatabi, and Shukaku
Eons past before the seeds left by creation had blossomed from lowly cells into an endless variety of life forms as the tree apes began their decent toward the ground their intelligence massive Oberon and Titania approached them fulfilling the mission given to them by creation and the first ones raising the apes up into the first incarnation of man among them the strongest smartest and kindest troop were chosen to represent the Fae to their people.
For a time things were good the humans prospered using magic to tend to the land... but humans are flawed by nature imperfect it started when the daughter of the human king was attacked by beasts Passing through Kurama had jumped to her defense slaying the maddened beasts that had attacked her at first she feared him but over the course of time between summer and winter solstice the two fell in love.
Many of the Fae including the king and queen gave their blessings the human king honored to have one of the powerful Fae choose his daughter as his bride allowed the marriage but not all were happy
Aphrodite daughter of Ouranos had been obsessed with Kurama sense they were children she could not except that he'd choose a flawed human but fearing retribution for killing the woman she instead cast a gruesome curse on Kurama's descendants with all the fury of a woman scorned.
As Fae-Born Kurama's children would be incredibly long lived outliving their lovers and friends so Aphrodite used this appearing to offer a blessing to the children she claimed they their children their children's children and so on for as long as they lasted would always find their true love. But attached to this blessing was a curse those same children and descendants would always hold the life of a Fae-born and watch their truest love wither and die
But Kaguya caught on to the jilted Aphrodite's plan and altered the curse she added that their soulmates would always carry or gain the gift of magic possessing massive pools of it this alteration formed with the help of Mana the child of magic turned Aphrodite's curse into a blessing
For you see those that possess magic live longer than those without those with large reserves of magic would live almost as long as any Fae-born
As the centuries past Aphrodite Realized that her plot had failed, and in her fury attempted to remove love from the world, but as love is ultimately part of Mother Nature's domain thus Aphrodite's ploy failed however her actions planted the first seed of darkness and in the thousand years to come this would begin a decline in the light.
Magic would become partially corrupted, and darkened in till Mana was forced to intervene with the aid of magic itself she split reality in twain creating a veil and a mirror image of reality the polluted and darkened magic would be funneled into this alternate world.
But in doing so two side effects occurred Mana was split into two beings Purity and Corruption a light and a dark half.
The other with the exception of humans with Fae blood such as Kurama's descendants and those that inhabited their island home of Uzushio all mortal life was reset to the seeds planted so long ago by creation
This created a balance in which the two realms now known as the Alter the world of darkness and the Regular the world we inhabit
During the second incarnation of the human race the elder Fae and the first ones noticed that the humans devoid of their influence were flooding the world with more negative intent then good.
So a deal was struck the world would be reset a final time and when the time came the Uzumaki the only remnant of the first era and the only proof of the Fae's existence held in stasis by the Fae a loop of eternal life would be freed from their loop and they would champion the natural order inspiring humanity and they would form a balance of warriors that possess magic and use it for the good of reality for the good of mankind for the good of nature and the good of magic itself.
They would be known as Paladins.
When the third an current incarnation of humanity began so did a war that has spanned all of its history
This war against the monsters hiding in the dark and those who spawned them but the Uzumaki and their followers were outnumbered requiring something to tip the scales the Uzumaki clan head Uzumaki Tenkichi approached Purity and struck a deal.
From that deal a solid oath was formed this oath created the first arcana a brand that signified their subservience to magic and their commitment to their quest
These arcana were given names
The Fool, Free and true
The Magician, wise and cunning
The High Priestess, kind and bold
The Empress, stalwart and pure
The Emperor, strong and determined'
Strength, immutable and brave
The Hanged Man, esoteric yet trust worthy
Death, understanding yet stern
Temperance, firm and willful
The Chariot, mighty and forceful
The Tower, gutsy and sturdy
The Wheel of Fortune, varied and bright
The Hermit, smart and accepting
Justice, powerful and fierce
The Star, ephemeral and
Judgement, the truest incarnation of wisdom and unforgiving in nature
The World, seemingly eternal and powerful
Then comes the celestials the absolute will of magic one is only countered by the other
The Sun, charismatic and brash powerful, and brave and free as a bird and quick to anger when those close to them are threatened
The Moon, mysterious calm and wise cunning, and kind, brave and protective when angered even gods tremble before them.
And the peripheral arcana found only in the truest of bonds forged from romance
The Lovers, a connection and a bridge an anchor and a pull
Should the celestials ever gain access to The Lovers their Bond would be a catalyst to the Ultima Arcana
The Eclipse, the absolute immutable will of reality, the form of all the aspects of magic, a bond of equals with magic rather than one of servitude, its abilities are beyond imagination.
Yet in creating these wonders Purity had unintentionally issued a challenge to Corruption
In is anger at what he saw as a stolen victory he created opposites
Bonds not to magic but to Corruption itself
Those Negative spectrum arcana as they became known as were dark and twisted versions of their counter parts.
Insanity
Gluttony
Lust
Wrath
The Murderer
The Nihilist
The Beast
The Devil
The Sadist
The cannibal
Envy
Hatred
The Sinner
The Traitor
Bitterness
The Vengeful
The Hedonist
And instead of two powers to balance each other that rained absolute Corruption created one to rule over all others alone.
The Void
Those who sought to pillage, rape, murder, destroy, and further sow the seeds of chaos and anarchy were gifted with these but cunning and untrusting Corruption gave the original negative arcana to Seventeen unforgivable humans.
And he gave the void to none other but the only being loyal to it, its Avatar and Son, a being who's name has long been lost to the annals of time.
Like all who embraced the truest evil they lost what made them life forms the ability to reproduce sexually, the ability to consume all but magic and that which dwells in the alter, the ability to form positive social bonds and the ability to feel truly happy.
Yet gaining immense strength and instantaneous regeneration their only weakness their arcana symbol able to heal as long as it remains undamaged and whole.
Forsaking their human names and identities they became known as The First Heretics . every story of demons and dark deities throughout current history can be attributed to them.
With the advent of The First Heretics a seemingly endless chess game between Purity and Corruption began
But this age is the one where things change the late 20th century to the early 21st century of the 3rd Incarnation of Humanity.
It all began with the meeting of two children a Naruto Uzumaki and a Wendy Corduroy a boy and girl whose destiny will change the course of history.
And my name well that's not important I'm but a humble story teller a disembodied voice a narrator if you will I'm but an outside observer here to guide you through this interesting tale, so without further ado let the show Begin.
} Gravity's Arcana {
So this is the un-betaed prologue of my upcoming fic
I'm posting this to let everyone know what's coming, it will take me a while to post because I wanted to post up to the beginning of my first original arc which doesn't start till the end of season 2 of gravity falls I currently have 8-9 long chapters in various stages of completion they will all be VERY long being I'm trying to squeeze as many episodes together as I can.
And as I wrote many after a particularly bad case of insomnia it's a slow going process expect the next update to take anywhere from 1-4 months and that's a broad deadline that I'm giving it could be that long or I might hunker down and get it all done in a week or two.
I have to change a bunch of stuff I decided to cut after I'd already written a chapter or two and I need to re work a few scenes where characters got to OOC for my taste. Also some parts were I went on a weird tangent. And still other stuff that either grammatically or canonically makes no sense what so ever.
Also need to re-watch all the episodes I bought them all and ended up switching between pausing a writing and sitting through a whole episode then losing my train of thought.
I'm going to give you the parings now one of witch you should of already guessed
Naruto Uzumaki X Wendy Corduroy (for some reason my new OTP)
Gaara x Tambry
Tayuya x Kin
Juugo x OC
Sasuke x Karin
Haku will be paired with someone but it's a secret and yes I'm using Male!Haku *le Gasp*
Theirs a clue on what kind of paring in that statement and in another paring list above I know I'm kind of giving it a way but meh.
Also be a bit of Dipper X Pacifica but it will grow slowly
And of course the usual Mable romantic Nonsense
And of course Minato X Kushina will have a few moments.
Well that's all for now next time I post expect a huge multi-chapter update that's worth the wait :D
Until then This is Kaijukage Signing Off.
