Outlanders – Chapter 1: Home world of the Spaceman and the Mage
Meclite was a dark world, a moon that hardly saw the sun's gaze. Various creatures lived there, mostly were large reptilian carnivores that killed anything that moved. The herbivores ate the plants that could grow in darkness. Trees on Meclite, hinted with glowing specks, covered vast plans. From space it looked like a shimmering globe, with the Mecans' cities clearly shinning through the eternal night. Mecans' were the inhabiting humanoids, and unlike the animals that lived there, their eyes would glow.
Mecans were a thriving race, with vast, unimaginable technology at their disposal. Their army was known as the Enterprise, and only the best from noble families could command ships, but they were peaceful and did not wish to kill unless provoked. They would also colonize many other planets, mostly outlying ones, sending minors, warriors, civilians, and a talented mage to each one.
The Mecans had a monarchy, a political group, a higher class, middle class and a working class. The working class was usually miners. The middle class was the shopkeepers and civilians. The higher class consisted of royal guards or soldiers.
The political group was the Enterprise Captains and the High Council, which consisted of mages. Born mages were very rare and known as Enders, but many mages were taught the trade, becoming Healers, Spawners, or Enchanters.
King Rothum, ruler of the Mecans was a just king. He was able to turn the suffering civilization into a magnificent empire within a few years of his rule. His son, Prince Solon, on the other hand was not so kind. He was full of jealousy of that Captain Xephos. Prince Solon wished to seize the crown for himself, and not let anyone get in his way, especially his older brother Xephos.
With the High Council, the mages were busy training new mages to be sent to seed colonies on different worlds. One of the students, an Ender by the name of Rythian was there. He was to be sent with a seed colony to the planet Minecraftia. From what the Mecans' thought, Minecraftia was uninhabited. A perfect place to build up another civilization in the universe, but with Minecraftia being so far out, a lot of their conclusions about the place were wrong. Rythian was determined to be the best, being an Ender, he hoped to returning home and become a High Council member.
This is Meclite, home of the two known as Xephos and Rythian, and this is their story.
