Hey guys. So this story came to me while I was high on cold medicine. I have another story that I will also be working on along with this one. Now as for the wording in this chapter, it will change. This is just a history for the land and the people. The story beings next chapter where we will meet our characters. Enjoy


In a time long ago, there was a land that was gifted to the humans from the heavens above. In this land, each knew the love of a soulmate and the peace of heart. It was a contract of sorts. As long as the people kept the peace and kept pure love in their hearts than they were to live as they wish. This contract was the way of life for many years. The self appointed leaders of this land kept everyone at peace, but this self appointed peace was short lived. The rulers grew power hungry. They wanted to control everything and everyone. They plagued the land with blood and lose. Brother and brother were set to kill one another. Man against wife. Couples who wanted nothing to do with this blood shed ran. A couple in particular who came from opposing families fled into the forests for their love was greater than anything else they knew. The man comforted his beloved until night fell. They both fall asleep and awoke in the middle of the night to a figure standing mere feet from them. This figure spoke in a voice that was neither man nor female. It was neither hard nor soft. This figure spoke to the couple:

"Your once perceived Utopia is no more. The fires of war rage on and if not extinguished you and your people will be no more. You chosen ones must decide. To save the fate of your people or to live days of few. Only hearts of pure could end the pain, only hearts of brave could put out the fires. Son of Adam, you must gather those of brave and strength and reside to the left of the land. Daughter of Eve, you must gather those of grace and beauty and reside to the right. No interaction must come between the two. For 40 days and 40 nights the border that will appear must not be crossed. If for a reason that this is not followed, great sufferings will come to the heart. Heed these words and follow the words spoken, for you have until the Dawn. If not, then your end is near. Go and spread the words spoken to you."

And with those chilling words, the figure disappeared.

"Whatever are we to do, surely this thing is mistaken. We can't divide the mates. They will not listen to us!" the female exclaimed.

"We must try my beloved, it not we die. Those who fear for the lives of their mates as I fear for yours will listen. It takes strength to sacrifice. We shall know the truth of their hearts. Come, we must spread the word for we have little time." And with that the couple rushed out of their hiding spot and rushed towards home. When the word spread, chaos broke through once again until the male that the prophecy was spoken to said

"Must we always defy the Gods. We must do this for the sake of our lives and the lives of those we love. What is but 40 days compared to eternity. We must find the strength to do this." With those words and with the man to lead, the people broke apart. The mates said their farewells to one another. The women followed the female to the right side of the Island while the men went to the left.

Once dawn broke through and those who wished to be saved were safe, a boundary of sorts cut the island in half. This boundary was see through and could easily be crossed. No one dared walk through. The warnings of the prophecy clear in their minds. Those who failed to heed the warnings, and the Rulers who caused all the pain seem to have vanished.

For the first 20 moons, all was calm between the divided people. By the time the 30th day approached, the people grew restless. They were not used being away from their mates for so long. A small group of men had escaped the larger group. They were dying to be with their loved ones and would do anything to be reunited. They came upon the boundary looking for any breaks in which they could pass through without actually touching it. They searched for what seemed like hours. Finally one of the men found a small tear in the boundary. He called over his friends and together they formed a plan to pass through the boundary and rescue their female companions. As one of the men went through the tear, the boundary closed on itself trapping the man. It was as if the heavens themselves had turned to hell. The sky turned black and thunder and lighting danced above. The boundary itself, which was once a pale blue color, turned a murderous red. It seemed to thicken before their very eyes.

After freeing their comrade from the boundary, a voice as old as time spoke.

"For we warn you to remain as you were told, yet you disobey. We have gifted you with peace and tranquility yet you throw away that gift as if it means nothing. You continue to disobey the rules of the land and for that you shall pay. You shall remain separated from your loved ones for as long as you contain closed of mind and hearts of hate. There is no escape from this punishment. Death will not save you from this punishment for you are destined to suffer for all eternity."

With those final words, the boundary closed off. No longer could the other side be seen. Instead a wall of immense height and width stood before the men.

To this day, the once united and peaceful people have not found a way to one another. Esme the woman to which the prophecy was first spoken to became queen of her people. They named their land Amazon and they themselves became Amazons. Esme feared a time would come for them to defend their land. She ordered everyone to be trained from a young age. The Amazons soon became women warriors. But not only were they warriors they were also healer, builders, farmers, teachers. Together they built their land and protected it from evil.

Across the boundary, the men who named themselves the Gargareans also followed the path of their mates. With Carlisle leading them they built their own form of Utopia. They became warriors as well as everything else that was required of them to build a working community.

Both of these people lived their lives as best as they could. But they never were fully happy. For the only way to heal the gap in their hearts would be for them to be reunited with their soulmates once again.
