Inferno's tale
Once, a long time ago, four elements lived in peace. Harmony, no need for one to lash out of control. Though once the gods saw this, once hell had been made. The elements could only speak to certain others. Water only with Wind, Fire only with earth. Soon fire had been damned away. Condemned with an unrighteous was sent away. He begged the other elements for salvation. To remember him and save him. They knew of his innocence to the crime he did not commit.
Though, the gods saw this. They promised the elements peace, harmony, righteousness. Amongst themselves, should they forget fire. The gods also promised to expand the elements, allowing them to become rulers of more similar elements. They looked down at fire's begging hand. For their own advancement, their own survival. The all casted fire away. Betrayal, fire was seared by water… Beaten by wind… Consumed by Earth…
Into hell fire plummeted. Fire was enraged, swore vengeance. Though after years of failure. Fire had given up, what could he do? Until one fateful day, man, had created the first fire upon the earth. It consumed the Earth, it ate the wind, and when left to grow, it couldn't be stopped by water. Fire had realized that if he grew… He could harness them all. He began his dark work. Under the guise of hell's own damning veil he worked. Creating four elemental spirits. Similar to his old friends. As well as one himself. He named them, Inferno, Hurricane, Whirlwind, and Thrasher. All violent forms of fire, earth, wind, and water.
Fire was not pleased there, no, he had to make sure they did not all die. He gave them the ability to reincarnate. When they all reincarnate once, they all may walk the planet. Ruling it as the almighty powerful. As the new elements. The god's finally wised to this plan. Realizing the danger Fire possesed, they sought out to kill the element of fire. Though they were pushed back by his new creations. Each mastered an unknown art of their own. Fighting with a ferocity unmatched by even the mightiest warriors. A hatred that boiled so deep for the gods that it made them stronger. Inferno… The leader of this group, led the charge into Malehigh. The realm of the gods. Destruction lied in their wake. Though the gods knew about their reincarnation weakness. Slowly they killed off all but one. Inferno.
Every hit only made him stronger, his rage burned even the holiest of weapons. The gods were forced to call upon the true elementals once more. To slam Inferno back into hell. There, Fire knew his plan hadn't been finished yet. For Inferno still lived. He needed to revive and kill off the others to bring them all back. To lead the final charge at the elementals. To finally bring him the justice he demands. Until that day… Inferno would burn bright in hell. Where his creator resided.
Excerpt from The book of flame:
"His rage built to destroy cities, his love made to burn those who oppose it, his happiness made to scare those who see it, his sadness made to wrench the hearts of the weak, his eyes made to freeze his enemies. The Inferno burns bright, all those who do not know or fear him. Should, for one day… He will rise with his righteous band of brothers. They will cleanse this land of those who were unlawful and disgusting. They will burn those who try to kill the innocent. They will be chaotic, they will be merciless… They will be the Elementals worst nightmare."
