Yay, my first fic!
(Are you excited?)
You bet I am!
(I think he's excited.)
Let's set up our procedure. Guest muses for this fic are:
The Great Healer of Vale and Kraden
And now for the disclaimer from a friendly muse.
I, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, assert that not only does Kd7sov not own the rights to Golden Sun, he has no particular desire to interfere with them. He also does not own me; I come from Ms. J. K. Rowling.
I'm experimenting with styles, so tell me what you think!
The Twelve Great Heroes
To: General Khalee, Interim Governor of Tolbi
From: Colonel Andre, Tolbi Science and Archaeology Division
The included document, recently found in the ruins of Vale, is provided in response to your query, regarding Isaac's quest. My team thinks it will provide some assistance.
Once, long ago, the power of Alchemy shone forth across Weyard. All lived in prosperity and peace, until there arose some few men, who did seek to bring all under their sway. Still there were some who did oppose their rule, but behold, after a mighty battle these few were banished unto Mount Aleph, whither they did build the town of Vale.
And lo, they did meet together, and did design a plan, yea, one much fraught with cunning and risk. And they did select of their number twelve heroes, six men and six women, who would go forth to seal away the power of Alchemy forevermore, for they knew that there was no other way that the power-mad men might be stopped. And the names of the heroes were these: Of the clan of Venus: Peter the Strong, Gerald the Large, Felicia the True. Of the clan of Mars: Martok the Fierce, Alaine the Brave, Philip the Grim. Of the clan of Jupiter: Alexander the Curious, Zephyre the Swift, Kinshi the Understanding. Of the clan of Mercury: Mirabel the Calm, Andre the Wise, Hoa-iasa the Good. And these Twelve did go forth even unto places of great elemental power, and there did they construct wondrous lighthouses. Yea, these lighthouses were unmatched for skill and majesty.
Then did the Twelve meet again at Lemuria, and they did work a mighty Psynergy, such that they might draw unto themselves at a later time all of Weyard's Alchemy. Then did they go again unto the lighthouses which they had built, to each lighthouse according to those elements it did not oppose, and behold, the lights thereof shone forth the colors of Alchemy. And they did ascend even unto the tops, yea, the very aeries thereof, and at the appointed time they did release that Psynergy which they had cast. Thus did they call unto themselves all the power of Alchemy, and those that were upon the lighthouse of their own element were transformed into Elemental Stars. And at that time did the lighthouses cease to shine.
And the Stars were borne by their fellows, who did set the final traps and obstacles in the lighthouses. But lo, Alchemy was not yet wholly sealed away. And the stars were borne even unto Mount Aleph, whither the people of Vale had constructed a mighty Sanctum unto Sol. And lo, in the heart of the volcano was a great chamber, and thither were the Stars borne. And behold, the eight who did remain of the Twelve did pool their power, and they did make a guardian for the Stars, a Wise One, who did live only to protect Weyard, and they did empower it with all power and skill of Psynergy. And when the Wise One did pull itself free of the earth it did shake itself, and many small stones and gems did fly therefrom and land everywhere, and behold, these stones were imbued with Psynergies, such as Lash and Frost. And the four women of the Twelve who did remain human suffered themselves to become statues, that they might bear and protect the Elemental Stars until the end of time, and the Djinn were imprisoned therein, even all sevenscore and four.
And the four men who were all that did remain of the Twelve did leave the chamber and arm the mighty trap which did guard it, and they did become the first four Elders of Vale. And lo, in the moment that the trap was set was the seal on Alchemy complete, and all the Psynergy stones did shatter save four. And behold, a new Psynergy Stone did appear in the plaza of Vale, because of the Stars which were nearby. And the Elders of Vale did send forth some few people from each clan, that they might guard the lighthouses, that they be not lit should the stars be taken. And this was the end of Alchemy.
Well? How's the style? Should I write Part Two: The Djinn? Ordinarily I wouldn't ask, but I am having some trouble writing it and would like to know if I would just be wasting my time on an unappreciated project.
