When the world was first created there were giant magical flowers planted all over it. They're roots were connected and all plants and trees grew from those roots. The flowers were the hearts of magic and life. Creatures and humans were born from these flowers and given as babies to their soon to be families. Each flower had a guardian who nurtured and protected the flower. They also made sure the babies were safe and found there soon to be families. Although each human and creature was born with magic, not all had a huge amount of it. Some had so little an amount that they could only heal minor wounds and help flowers bloom in spring. While others could heal fatal wounds and cause a meadow to bloom with flowers in the middle of the winter.
There were six though, who each specialized in one of the four elements as well as light and dark, there were three males and three females. Each had a twin, fire and water were twins, air and earth were twins and light and dark were twins.
Fire was a beautiful woman with fire like hair and piercing red eyes, she had a hard time keeping track of her temper but she was a lovely women if you knew her well enough. Her name was flame, and her twin brother, Water known as river, had the pretties blue eyes and light blue hair that fell in waves down his back all the to his waist.
Earth had beautiful brown hair and hazel eyes, she was calm and the anchor of the group, stable, firm. But her anger was catastrophic. She was know as Amber among their people. Her twin, Breeze (a.k.a air) was so carefree and constantly travelling. He liked to joke around and play pranks. But could be so scary when mad... So scary!
Light and dark were the last pair of twins, light or order as others called him, was very... Kind, respectful and respected. His hair was almost white and he had this grandfatherly look, and he insisted that everything has a place and that it is in said place.
Chaos, Orders twin, was a kind woman and well respected for you did not want to get on her bad side. Her hair was the blackest of black and her eyes were pure black, no pupil or ... Though if you looked closely you could see little flecks of different colors appear and disappear.
These are the six that ruled and protected the world when it was first created but as powerful as they were, it was not meant to last. A being of lesser power became jealous, a emotion that had not been, before he came along. He tried to gain more magic but the flowers had given him the amount meant for him and would allow him no more than he already had. As the jealousy grew, he spread it to others with less power than normal and eventually his followers, those who agree with him, grew in numbers. After years of their numbers growing they finally left their magic behind and so the first non-magical beings, humans, were born.
Humans, unlike their magical counter parts were cruel and merciless. The one who started it all and his partner were the first to create a kingdom, they created castles and towns, and were the first ever queen and king... And the first to have a child not created by the flowers that nurture the earth. That child was given the name Arthur and this life was the first of many lives he would live.
The day Arthur was born, another child was brought into the changing world, a child of pure magic. As he was growing in the flowers, the six who ruled, who had not been able to stop the first king, were pouring ninety-five percent of their power into the babe, turning him into the embodiment of magic, and with the little magic they had left they raised their little brother and helped him master his magic. This child was meant for great things, would live through many things.
You will learn more as the story goes on. I am not sure what I have in mind, it may only be a one-shot about Arthur and Merlin meeting again, but if anyone wants me to continue it or add more backstory let me know ig...
