The world was born from darkness...
Unending darkness... A crucible of chaos.
But even to that primordial existence there came a ray of light.
The universe was eventually split in two.
The Darkness became the realm of Demons
and the Light became the domain of Mortals.
These two worlds existed together for what seemed like an eternity.
But one day, the Mistress of the Dark said,
"These realms were once united, so why not rule them as one?"
From that era forward the dark fought to control the light and the light struggled to defy the dark.
But the nature of man is weak and fragile. There was no way they could hope to oppose the demonic powers of those from the world of shadows.
Light was overwhelmed by the impenetrable darkness and humanity prepared to meet its end...
Then They appeared...
Their names are the now basis of our world
Fire, Water, Air, Earth
They had no loyalty to either side; however they sought to maintain a balance between the two worlds. Wielding their power for the sake of the world of light, the 4 elements destroyed the ambitious Mistress of Darkness and without her, Darkness lost its power.
To ensure the balance was maintained, all 6 powers took equal parts in creating the seal that separated the two worlds.
That seal is Gaia itself.
The mortals that survived looked up to the Powers that saved them and came to call them Elementals, praising them for their powers and begging to learn their ways. The Elementals chose those true of heart to bear a fraction of their power and with it, they inherited the responsibility to maintain the balance of power in the world.
The Elementals reigned over Gaia for a long, prosperous era, but slowly they tired and, confident in those they chose to inherit their power and responsibility, fell into a deep sleep in their sanctuaries across Gaia; awaiting a time where their powers would be needed again.
For 1000 years the Elemental Avatars fulfilled their responsibility to the balance, but the human spirit is weak and their memories as fleeting as morning mist. The Elementals who purchased their freedom with their own blood became legends and over time, the legend became nothing but a fairytale.
Humanity's lust for power began to taint members of those of the Elementals chosen bloodlines and in their lust, shook off their mantles of responsibility. Their ancestral oaths to maintain the balance was forgotten and their new quest was for power at all costs. Wars ravaged Gaia and the few still loyal to their responsibility to their Elemental benefactors cried out for their help.
And so now, 2000 years have passed since the Elementals' departure to sleep...
