Finally i'm starting to post my novel! I finished watching Elfen Lied , so i'm really tripped out right now , so , this part of the prologue will tell about the world and the villains of this story (note: Elfen Lied is my favourite anime , Shadow Ages is the name of this novel).
So , here we go:
In the beginning , there was nothing. A cold black patch. We believe that a large explosion created our universe as we know it. We are wrong. Every 500 quatrillion (if that's a real number) , our universed is wiped clean. As fast as a snapping of fingers , everything is gone. And new life begins. Conflict and intelligence is abundant in worlds , but I will tell the story of the worst conflict ever documented. My name is Miekyuu Takahashi , and this is the story of
The Shadow Ages
Prologue:
1045 BH (before halfway)
What caused this war exactly? I'll tell you. It all began on a small meadow on the continent known as Mozei. It was simple , An elf was birthing a child , but what came was...odd , to say the least. The child had odd skin , as if he was burnt and his flesh shred and scarred. They're people believed he was the son of the devil himself , so they abandoned him in the woods.
He grew smart over the years. He learned to hunt, to cook , to forge weapons and armor, and he created his own name:
Satan Rikmastel
He practiced his own beliefs , that death is caused out of innocense , and that crime and sin would redeem mankind. That God had finished his duty , and that Satan would reign is his stead. Wherever he brought his hallucinatary actions , people would never listen. Those who wouldn't , he would kill , mercilessly slaughtering them. Some , however , also blamed God for their misfortune. They joined him , adjorned themselves with identical armor , and spread their beliefs like cholera.
Now numbering 500,000 , they took the capital of the continent , Eaogelos. Here , they made a name that they would carry to the ends of the planet , like fire's first spark. Now began the raids of the Satanriks.
981 BH
Those who posed the biggest threat were the Csifhers. A strange race , with strange legs (like 4 legged giant spiders) , and a scarily intelligence level. The weapons of choice for Satanriks varied on their personsa: A standard soldier has a sword , a brute with an axe , a commander with claws , and a general with a scythe. Csifhers are dealt with quickly; a single stab through the spine and they would move on. In a matter of 3 years , all Csifhers on Mozei were gone.
973 BH
The Satanriks invade northern Gosrel , a part of Felron territory. Felron now takes up military action against the Satanriks , despite being outnumbered 8 to 1 , the Satanriks push forward. The next year , Felron asks for aid from Warano , who gladly accepts. Now outnumbered 12 to 1 , the Satanriks fall back the the continent of Ray , and prepare to assault Aurora , one of the largest cities constructed on this world. This ticks off the worst of the bunch , however. The Shounin-Keibi (saint guards) , numbering nearly 1,000,000 declare war on the Satanriks. After a lot of secret recruiting , the Satanriks were ready to fight back. Even with the Shounin to aid them , the Satanriks now stood against the Alliance with a 3 to 1 man count , and the true war ensued. Blood bath after blood bath , with no victor in sight. One day , the king of Felron , Eidas Monroe , devised a plan to end the war. A cliffside battle , the Shounin on sides , Warano and Felron troops on the bottom. The Satanriks caught wind of the plan and found a flaw: a messenger would have to deliver a message to the Shounin encampment , inside a deep forest , and it would be a 24 minute ride at full speed to reach them.
When the battle came , in 942 BH , Felron and Warano suffered heavy losses. The messenger who was to bring the signal to the Shounin had been struck down. Felron knew the enemy had killed him , Warano however , believed the Shounin had betrayed them all , and seceeded from the Alliance.
936 BH
Warano was quick to try to keep the Shounin out of the picture , so with their remaining troops , they banished out to the farthest Southern continent. Devoid of sunlight , a nameless wasteland , our people suffered for a long time. No crops could be sewn , the lack of vitamin d caused out hair to turn a ghostly white. The redeeming quality is that there were animals a plenty to cook. Ducks , chicken , cows , geese , eagles , warthogs , almost any animal you can think of. From the spies we had working up north , we heard Felron had surrendered , been looted , and nearly burnt to the ground. We also found out that the Satanriks knew of our location , and claimed to bury us in a sea of holy fire. We prepared , for 4 years , we readied ourselves.
932 BH
Now , today , all our documents , all our routines , all our studies , they mean nothing now. All we have are our weapons , and the enemy. In our time , as the sun rises , so begins the dawn of war.
