There are many beliefs and stories of mythical creatures in this world we live in. Humans tell many tales about them. But little do they know that most of the creatures from their tales are real. We are real and are known as the supernatural.
This world is known as Arthelyeis, the world of the supernatural and humankind. The world of magic and wonders.
We supernatural hide our existence from humankind. It wasn’t always like that. Before, there were more supernatural beings than humans. But because of many wars between supernaturals that were fought for ages, the human population grew while our kind started dying out.
Humans always faired us because of things we could do. But they rarely confronted us. Now is different. They have developed weapons that can kill us and there are 10 billion in this now, and only 1 billion supernatural beings.
Right now, it’s A.D. 3560 year, a 3560 year after fall of the Dark age. We keep a track of the years by changes between dark and light age. I’m not sure why, but that’s how it always has been.
So, it’s A.D. 3560, and autumn has begun. We are at the courthouse of North Lycan kingdom. I’m about to be convicted of illegal aiding and abetting. Yes, you hear me right. As a supernatural being that isn’t registered, I’m to be sentenced to death for helping by using my powers. Yes, I know. Best thank you ever, right?
“This is the highest illegal act that has been performed this century! This creature isn’t even registered in S.I.A. or any archive that we know about!” one old man stated with an angry voice.
“Yes! For all we know, this creature can be trying to dissave us from the beginning. Why would a stranger aid us if they don’t seek something in return?” another man asked.
“That is a strong allegation. It wouldn’t grace us to condemn without clean evidence. Let’s investigate this case further before we came such strong allegations again. We are the Elder of North, it wouldn’t grace us to do otherwise.” the elder woman spoke.
“It’s true that this creature used its power without approval of this council, but it’s also true that those same power saved many subjects of North. With the action that this creature took that day, it undoubtedly becomes a savior to many of our people. And gains love and respect from many.” one of the elders commented.
“Action to dissave us. Such action undoubtedly deserves the highest sentence there is, a public execution! North should know what this creature is trying to undoubtedly do by aiding our kind!” the old man raises his authoritative voice as he spoke.
“This creature already dissaved a First Lord Bladenson! This creature can’t be believed!” the same old man added.
“That’s not an official reason why we are here today.” the elder woman spoke casually.
“First Lord willingly give his official statement earlier about this as well, so this shall be undiscussed at this hearing.” other man stated.
You are probably wondering why they are calling me ‘this creature’. It’s because I’m a half-breed and that’s how royal and High council members entitle us.
Supernatural beings have been called creatures of evil by humans for ages now.
We are also called creatures of chaos by many religions just because we can do things they can’t. Chaos is absolute. Humans know chaos as natural disasters like tsunami, tornadoes, firestorms, etc. Would you believe me if I tell you that there’s a good reason for all those phenomenal?
This world we live in is filled with primordial energy of all. It’s also known as a life cycle. Have you ever wondered why a flower seed germinates or why it can rain on a sunny day? It’s because of primordial energy that flows through as all. Everything has its primary element because of primordial energy. As you probably already guessed, the tree's primary element is the earth. But for the tree to grow it needs more than just its own primary element. It also needs primary elements like water and light. When different elements combine, they create nanoparticles of pure energy. And that’s what we all know as the energy of nature.
I know. What does all this with has to do with chaos? It’s simple. Chaos is born from the disbalance of pure energy and primary elements. Nature haves a perfect balance between those powers. But sometimes it can create a draft. Drafts are something like black holes. They are created from a great amount of gathered pure energy. Why pure energy can create drafts is still unknown, even to us. As human has their theories about what causes climate change and space, we have our theories about the drafts and flow of energy.
Now you are probably wondering what do drafts have to do with anything, right? Let me try explaining it. So, when there is too much pure energy gathered on the same spot, a draft is created. When a draft is created, it will draw more energy to it. Once it draws too much energy to it, it will give birth to chaos. The wind is an excellent example of chaos. When a primary element of air encounters a draft, it will produce the wind. More pure energy means stronger wind, and the stronger does wind gets, the stronger storm can create. And that’s how pure chaos is born. We supernatural call it a Drafts field. Drafts can’t be seen with eyes, only sensed by supernatural beings. And we can manipulate them because we know how to use primary element that we are born with. That’s what humans call magic. For us, those are skills that can be honed through training.
Oh my, I didn’t introduce myself. I’m Adelinne. As you already figure it out, I’m supernatural. My apologies if I bore you to death just now.
You are probably wondering what I’m, right? A half-breed, that’s all I can say about that since I still don’t really know what really am I. And I wouldn’t want to lie to you. I’m 3568 years old. Old, right? I know. Don’t worry, I don’t look old. I look between 24 and 26 years old.
So, why did I just tell you all this? And what did I do to get myself at court? Long story! But if you don't mean, I would like to take some of your time to tell you how I got my ass here. I want to tell you, my story. Honesty, I don’t know from where to start. From the beginning would be the best way, right? Well, that part of my story isn’t a nice one. But we need to start from somewhere, right?
Let’s start with the first thing I can recall from when I was a little child. Shall we?
