This is the prophecy that is mentioned oh so many times in the story.

The broken parts of the prophecy:

-When the Four and the One are together, a rift will form and if it not sealed by the blood and soul of one of the Four, all four worlds will collapse into each other.

-When the one, the ultimate, is born, events will be put into motion. On her first birthday, the Chikaras will open up Meikai and the Satsu Shukumei. In a weeks time, she will create the rift and the future will be decided.

The true prophecy as read in the Hykhan-Ishion

At this, the fall of the Original, we make this prophecy when, hence it's coming, will decide the fate of the four worlds we spent thousands of years creating.

'Reborn Original and young One

Gather at sacred sanctuary

Orbs of life and energy

Staff of opening and sealing

Items sacred to the Five

Chikaras and Sora-bou

Three stand against one

Young One removes seal

Darkness clouds the judgement

Of the father of Ningenkai

Tyhion

Light surrounds the heart

Of the Mother of Reikai

Shikaro

Questions surround the unknown

Father of Makai

Kuro

A troubled decision holds

The mother of Meikai

Sakunara

Blood spilt on sanctified ground

For the better of the worlds

A decision to be made

Original's must decide

Which is to happen

For we have seen the death

To bring about peace

With our rebirth

The rift will slowly open

She will decide what is to happen

The one to close the portal

Darkness will disappear

As she lay in love's arms, dying

Her blood shall seal

And soul shall mend and cleanse

Happiness and peace will encase all

With her death, the worlds will rebuild

And she will...'

And from there, there is no more writing as if someone never finished. No one knows the rest of the prophecy, except for it's writer, me, Sakunara, mother of Meikai and the one forseen to give her life for the four worlds.

The legend of the Originals

From our blood, we created the four worlds, Ningenkai, the world of the humans; Reikai, land of the spirits; Makai, land of demons and apparitions; and Meikai, land of knowlenge and peace; from the very soil we arose from. We are the Original, the four creators. I am Sakunara, mother of Meikai. Shikaro is the mother of Reikai, Tyhion is father of Ningenkai, and Kuro is father of Makai. This is our story, our own creations being our downfall. Tyhion is rythless, cold-hearted, and arrogant. Not satisfied with the humans he created, his attempted a mass genocide in the form of an ice age and set it upon Earth. Seeing his intensions, Kuro, Shikaro, and myself confronted him. He tried to kill Shikaro, who refused to be his life-love, but met the end of the divine blade Seika. As I stood there with my sword pierced through his chest I cast a spell upon all of us.

'Let we not die until this prophecy is fulfilled. May our souls be resurrected until the worlds are set back into order.'

With those words, a light surrounded us and rested in each our souls. Tyhion died and his body was slowly absorbed into the earth and, from that spot, the Satsu Shibou was formed. Shikaro smiled at Kuro and myself and hugged us. 'Until another time' was her final words as she transported to Ningenkai and passed away in the spot that the Satsu Jinsei later formed. Kuro and myself went to Meikai and laid in a clearing in each others arms. As we whispered our loves and goodbyes to each other, I had a vision of the two of us at the prophecy's fulfillment. A small child held onto Kuro's reincarnation's pants leg tightly. I knew she was the Ultimate we set out to make. A smile covered my face as death consumed my love and me.

The next chapter to be posted is the epilogue and the ending. Keep posted!
