Hi, everyone!!!

Wow, it's been awhile!  Lots of stuff been going on.  With Dead Week last week, and Finals this week, I've been in quite a jam lol :)

But here is a new thing that I've been working on.

Here's some music to start you off:

I'd like to introduce you to Mivius Bijor, Prince of the Goryon Kingdom and heir to the throne:

If you remember from my "The Realm" post back in June, you would know about the Goryon Kingdom, or the Kingdom of the Far North.  The Goryon are basically the offspring of humanoid creatures and Dragons.  They have the second most powerful magic (Vikus) in the world, known as Dragon Vikus.  They are kind of like the hermit kingdom of the Realm, living in isolation in the far North.  I kind of think of their "Foreign Policy" like the US foreign policy during the 1930s - to not get involved in world events.  However, the Goryon Kingdom is not to be trifled with because they are some of the best warriors in the world.

Their Kingdom has never been successfully invaded, though many have tried.  The icy landscape of the Far North often kills off most invaders.  Those who can survive, often end up lost in the maze of mountains that surround the Goryon Kingdom, creating a natural wall around the Kingdom.  Those who would happen to make it past the mountains would then deal with the giant man-made wall that surrounds the foot of the Far North Mountains.  It is practically impossible.  Plus, if any made to the walls, they would likely be slaughtered by the mighty Goryon warriors.  Or by the Dragons that defend their lands.  They are, after all, known for their Dragon Riders.

Mivius Bijor is the Prince of this Kingdom.  He is a Goryon, born of the Fire Dragon Lord Trearii and his human mother Talia.  Talia is the reigning Queen of the Goryon Kingdom, with Mivius as her co-ruler.  Mivius cares deeply for his people.  So much, that he often dresses up as a civilian, ditches his guards, and sneaks out of the Palace to go and help those less fortunate than him.  This has made him beloved by his people.  With the Goryon Kingdom not that big, it is easier for him to get to meet and help his people to the best of his abilities.

The Elder Dragon Tusain is bound to him by Vikus.  Tusain chose Mivius as his rider, making Mivius the first humanoid to be bound to an Elder Dragon.  After all, the Elder Dragons are the most powerful, wisest, and oldest of the Dragons in the Realm.  There are only three in existence, the original three - Nogard, Tusain, and Nai-Anorpo.  Their symbol is:

This symbol eventually 

became the national symbol

 for the Goryon Kingdom 

(appears on their flags). 

Mivius bond with Tusain only made Mivius all the more powerful.  When Mivius came of age at sixteen, he was sent to Nogard's Temple, the ancient training Temple of the Goryon, where the Dragon Priests reside.  The Dragon Priests took Mivius in and trained him to be one of the most skilled warriors to ever grace the temple halls.  Mivius began learning great wisdom and knowledge from his masters, the Dragon Priests, and Tusain.  He was always eager to learn new things and desired to go the Great Library that existed on the other side of the world.


Tusain eventually took him to the Great Library, where he studied for over a year before returning to the Goryon Kingdom.  When he came back, he dawned his royal armor and walked the streets of his kingdom often.  He continued to help his people whenever he could.  Mivius, at the age of eighteen, was brought before the Elder Dragons, Queen Talia, and the Dragon Priests.  One of the seven Dragon Priests had passed away, but by the will of Viius and the Elder Dragons, Mivius was anointed as the seventh Dragon Priest.  Mivius took his position reluctantly but honored his word to help train the next generation of his people and to protect the Realm from true danger.


Mivius would begin his regular travels to the Temple of Viius to seek out the Sagik Monks and their wisdom.  He often prayed there to Viius, who had blessed him so much.  Mivius traveled to the Temple of Viius for the first week of every month, on the back Tusain.


It was during this time that the Great Rebellion began in the Kingdom of Abatral, where the story of Illum begins.  So yes, in the story, I am currently writing, Mivius will make an appearance.  It will start off as a small introduction, but eventually he will become a more major character as the series progresses.


HOPE YOU ENJOYED!!!!  HAVE AN AWESOME WEEK!!!!!
ROGUE ONE IS COMING OUT!!!! GO WATCH IT IF YOU CAN!!!!!!!!!

Abatral History V

 Don't forget to Follow and +1 this blog

With Thanksgiving coming up, I'm just gonna continue to post the History of the World I've created.  I think it is really cool just to sit back and realize that I did make this, and to see if it will ever go anywhere in the future.  I think what is awesome about this is it isn't very in depth, but eventually I'll go back and make it so there are actually stories to along with these broad history summaries.  You'll have to forgive me if some of my thoughts while writing are jumbled.

Also - my story writing is going great.  I've gotten past the first four chapters and chugging along beautifully!!  Once Illum basically gets chased out of the Palace - Enochi Tower - the story will be easier to write - at least until the climatic ending. 😃

Don't forget to read the other ones - Part I, Part II, Part III,and Part IV.

This post has even more of a story to it than the last one.  Hope you enjoy.

So here is the Fifth part of the History of Abatral:

The Fifth Aidis



The Fifth Aidis was an Okred named Jehoiada.  Jehoiada was trained by his parents in the way of the Aidis, and told him stories of the previous Aidis.  Jehoiada eventually was able to enter into the Vikken State and was the first Aidis to communicate with their previous lives.  All four of them counseled and trained Jehoiada.  They made him into a powerful and wise leader.  Jehoiada became a more recognizable figure after he started making a difference for the Okred people.

They were highly impoverished.  Jehoiada was given the words of Viius to help the poor.  So Jehoiada used all his wisdom to bring the Okreds out of their poverty.  He created jobs – mostly commercial.  What was considered the King of the Okreds eventually decided to make Jehoiada the prime minister of the Okreds.

Jehoiada began requesting trade with the Dwarfish Kingdom, the Saphid Kingdom, and the Elvish Kingdom.  He attempted to commence trade with humanity, but humanity treated him with great contempt.  Humanity still remembered that the Okreds had once invaded their lands, and they refused to let such a thing happen again.

Jehoiada eventually saw the Okred Kingdom grow in power.  The people of his kingdom became very supportive of him.  They even planned to oust the King of the Okreds and replace him with Jehoiada.  However, Jehoiada intervened – saving the Okred Kings life.  He announced that he was leaving political life at a time when the Okred Kingdom was prospering.  He opened up a Library – later called the Library of Jehoiada – and filled it with knowledge that he gained from the kingdoms that the Okreds traded with.  Jehoiada wrote many books of wisdom, and guidelines for his people.  The Okred King constantly sought his advice, to which Jehoiada wrote a book specifically for the Okred King, instructing him on how to rule properly.

Eventually Jehoiada received the words of Viius to go to human lands.  Viius wanted Jehoiada to bring balance back to humanity.  To stop his most loved creation from constantly fighting and killing each other.  He left Dokel and traveled to the lands of Man.

Mankind despised him.  They refused to listen to him and often tried to fight him, to which he would simply leave, only using magic to knock those who attacked him off their feet.  The hatred in mankind was so much that Jehoiada left the Lands of Man and traveled to Shilvé, the capital of the Elvish Kingdom.  He sought the wisdom of the Elves.  The Elvish council brought Jehoiada to the Viius Sanctum, hoping that he would receive a vision from Viius.

After weeks of meditation, Jehoiada finally received words of wisdom from all the previous Aidis’ and from Viius.  He saw Viius in a vision as he touched the giant Kide Crystal in the Viius Sanctum.  Viius showed him that mankind would be united one day – by an Aidis; however, it would not be him who united mankind.  Viius told Jehoiada that he must not give up however; because the seeds that he plants now will grow fruitful eventually.  Humanity needs to know that not all of the Okreds are trying to kill them.

Jehoiada then prepared to leave the Elvish Kingdom, when Lord Jehoiakim of the Elves stopped him.  He warned Jehoiada that war was coming, and that the world was in grave danger.  He asked who would start this war, to which Jehoiakim sadly said it would be the Okreds.  Jehoiada acknowledged this and left, to fulfill the words of Viius.

After many years of failure, he finally was accepted by some humans.  These humans were unlike the others.  They were devout followers of Viius and sought to keep in balance with him.  Jehoiada stayed with these humans for a while, until one day he received the words of Viius.  Viius told him it was time to pass the Spirit of Lumir to someone new.  The new holder of the spirit would be the soon to be born child of the family who took him in.

During the following months, Jehoiada began writing instructions about the Aidis.  He gave it to the family who took him in, and explained it to them to the best of his abilities.  The family accepted this responsibility.  When the child was born – a daughter named Hilkiah – Jehoiada took the child and said the words as he passed on the Spirit of Lumir.  Jehoiada was greatly weakened as almost all of his powers left his body.  As soon as the Spirit of Lumir was safely embedded inside of Hilkiah, Jehoiada began to return to Dokel.

When he reached the nearest harbor, he noticed that an Okred army camp was set up.  The Okred commander walked out and greeted Jehoiada.  Jehoiada questioned why a small Okred army was on human lands.  The commander explained that the war with the humans was about to begin.  Jehoiada questioned this.  The commander then apologized and ordered his men to arrest Jehoiada.  Jehoiada being weak, could do nothing to stop this.  He was loaded on a boat, and shipped back to Dokel.

On his way, Viius spoke to Jehoiada.  Jehoiada had believed that Viius had forsaken him, but listened willfully to his words.  Viius told him not to be afraid.  He said that he had done his duty as the Aidis well, and has prepared the way for the future.  Viius then explained that death was upon Jehoiada, but that he should not fear death.  Viius explained that his body would be destroyed, but his spirit would live on.

Jehoiada listened and was not afraid.  When he was brought to Dokel, he was deeply saddened.  The Library of Jehoiada had been burned.  The Temple of Viius was destroyed – it was replaced with a Temple of Kyyja.  Jehoiada was brought before the new King of the Okreds – Nahashnabal – the son of the previous king, who had passed away under odd circumstances.

Nahashnabal accused Jehoiada as a traitor.  He was the only one who knew Jehoiada had returned to Dokel, besides the soldiers who brought him there and the commander.  Nahashnabal then told Jehoiada his plans to invade the mainland and to show the world that the Okreds were a force not to be trifled with.  Jehoiada demanded to know why the king had turned his back on his people.

Nahashnabal explained that he fell under the teachings of Kyyja.  He explained that she promised the Okreds a chance to rule.  He also said that the people needed to rally behind a strong leader.  He told Jehoiada that he killed his father one night, and blamed it on a group of rebels.  He then claimed that the rebels were the followers of Viius, and that it was Viius who had ordered the attack on his father.  He then explained that Kyyja had luckily protected him from the attack.  Then Kyyja appeared before the people and explained what had happened.  She told them that Viius was to blame; as were the humans who he loved so much.  Kyyja then demanded that the Temple of Viius be destroyed, and the priests killed as well.  Then a new temple be made in her honor.

Then one night, Kyyja set fire to the Library of Jehoiada.  Nahashnabal explained that he told his people that it was humans who had done this.  The people believed him and wanted to have revenge on the humans.  Nahashnabal then said that he and Kyyja hatched a plan to invade the human lands – a plan that would rally all of the Okreds against the humans.

Nahashnabal then explained that Jehoiada himself would be the scape goat.  That once Jehoiada was killed and his body was desecrated, that the Okreds would be told that the humans did this and that his body was recovered by soldiers who were requested by Jehoiada to come help him flee the human lands.  Nahashnabal was proud about this plan.

At this moment Jehoiada was given the words of Viius – to tell Nahashnabal that his dynasty, his line, would end when he was old in age.  And that he would be driven into madness, and would eventually would be burned by fire, from his foolishness by attacking Viius’ chosen people.  Jehoiada told Nahashnabal these words, and Nahashnabal became furious.  He grabbed a spear and threw it at Jehoiada, fatally injuring him.  Jehoiada however, pulled the spear out and stood back up.  He then said that Viius was with him, and that Nahashnabal had doomed the Okred race.  That he was to blame for the destruction of his own people.  And that in the end, he would burn in the fires of his failure.  Nahashnabal then began beating Jehoiada.  But Jehoiada refused to give Nahashnabal any leverage.  He just stared at the King, with the greatest amount of disappointment and sadness.  Then Nahashnabal took his sword and slayed Jehoiada.  He then desecrated Jehoiada’s body.

The following day, Nahashnabal brought Jehoiada’s body out of the palace, and into the courtyard.  The people gathered around their king and fallen Aidis.  The King then claimed that his body was recovered by his forces that were sent to rescue Jehoiada from the humans, and that the humans had killed Jehoiada and desecrated his body.  He blamed his people for not allowing him to act soon enough.  He claimed that the humans would be destroyed for this outrage or enslaved.  The people agreed and the Okreds prepared for invasion.

In the years that followed, the Okreds began invading the Dwarfish Kingdom – and succeeded.  Their goal was to secure the Forge from the Dwarves and use it to fuel their armies.  However, the Dwarves managed to hide the Naphtali’s Staff deep inside of a cave guarded by a Forest Dragon Lord.  The Forge was placed under heavy guard and the Dwarves were subjugated to Okred rule.  The Okreds forced the Dwarves to work for them and to gather resources for their growing empire.  Then Nahashnabal prepared to invade the Saphid controlled Aona Islands.  He used the resources he gained from the Northern forest – harvested by his Dwarfish slaves – to create a massive and heavily armored fleet of ships.

He then sent an invasion fleet to the Aona Islands and began to take it over, crushing the Saphid Naval Fleet, despite the Saphid superior naval tactics.  Once the Saphid fleet was destroyed, the Aona Islands slowly began to fall under the growing Okred Empire.  Once the Saphids were enslaved, they were forced into cruel submission.  Their temples were destroyed and the Okreds dealt with Saphid dissenters by public execution.

Abatral History IV

 Don't forget to Follow and +1 this blog

So in keeping with what I've been doing, here is the fourth part of history.
Now I know that some of this information is vague - that's only because it isn't fully developed yet.
My plan is to the stories of the Aidis' as a basic history of the Realm, and then to continue world building from there.  I'll eventually have to write the cultural things for each nation/group of people in the Realm, and this basic history is a pretty good foundation to go off of.

Don't forget to read the first three parts - Part I, Part II, and Part III

So without further ado, here is the story of the fourth Aidis:

The Fourth Aidis

The Fourth Aidis was a Dwarfish Woman, Naphtali.  Early on, many refused to follow the words of Naphtali, even though most of them were the words of Viius.  The Dwarves at the time were a vile, oppressively patriarchal society.  Many would fight with Naphtali, but she would always win and accidently end up hurting some people.  At one point she even killed a male Dwarf – her brother.  Because of this, she was banished from her home, and she fled the Dwarfish lands.  She ran until she could run no more.  And she ended up in the Elvish Kingdom.
 
The Elvish Council recognized her as being an Aidis.  They brought her into their society, and she was taught by the Elves the true way of understanding Vikus, and gave her valuable teachings that would guide her life; one of which was her need to return home and make peace with the past. 
At one point, when she was among the Elves, she entered the Temple of Baesaestia, and the High Priest of the Elves and the Chief Priest of Baesaestia summoned Baesaestia to speak with Naphtali.  Baesaestia spoke with her alone for a very long time.  The wisdom that Baesaestia gave her, would soon be used by her.

Naphtali eventually began her long journey back to Dwarfish Lands.  She was stopped along the way by Libris – the goddess of wisdom and inventions – and Ducorrbus – the god of fire and war.  They both spoke with Naphtali.  Naphtali was at first apprehensive towards the two, especially Ducorrbus – she had seen what the worship of Ducorrbus could bring to the lands – as humanity at this point was still fighting amongst themselves.

However, the two divine creatures began to give Naphtali a grand idea.  An idea that would help unite the Dwarves into one kingdom.  Ducorrbus reminded Naphtali that despite being the god of war he was also the god of fire and he went hand in hand with Libris’ powers of wisdom and inventions.  Naphtali took the plans that the two divine creatures had given her and returned to Dwarfish lands. 
When she returned to the lands, she returned home – hoping to be accepted back into her family.  Her family despised her and rallied the whole town together to get rid of her.  They chased her across Dwarfish lands until they ran into the camp of two Giants.  Giants began to attack the Dwarves. 
Naphtali used her magic to make a defensive barrier between her and the Dwarves.  She then told the other Dwarves to run away, as she began to fight the Giants.  She managed to bring the Giants to their knees using her magic.  She was planning on leaving them there, but they both got up and attacked again.  She defensively killed them using her magic.

As she left the area, the Dwarves that intended to kill her, began begging her for forgiveness.  She told them to rise up and to follow her.  They returned to their home, and in the nearby mountain they began digging – Naphtali using her magic led them deep under the earth.  They eventually opened up a large cavern – a Kide Cave – and started construction of a large machine.  The Machine was extremely powerful and was used to create anything.  It would use magic to summon any material in the world, and it would create the item wanted by the user.  The Machine became known as the Forge.

Naphtali created a special magical staff – later dubbed Naphtali’s Staff – which acted like a key, to wake up the Forge.  The Forge couldn’t be used without this staff.  This was a preventative measure to ensure that the Forge wouldn’t be misused.  The Staff would be passed on to Naphtali’s descendants.

By the use of the Forge, and by the word of how powerful she was, Naphtali visited every part of Dwarfish lands.  Naphtali eventually gathered all the heads of the families and they unanimously agreed to make Naphtali their ruler.  A crown was forged, embedded with Kide Crystals, and given to Naphtali.  Soon all of the Dwarfish lands were united as one Dwarfish Kingdom.  They had a new matriarchal system of leadership.  Naphtali and the Dwarves became closely connected with the Elves, as they had helped her become who she was.

Naphtali was revered by her people.  They even constructed the underground capital named Ilathpan.  They constructed massive temples, carved into mountain tops, in honor of Viius, Baesaestia, Ducorrbus, and Libris.  Ilathpan prospered, along with the rest of the Dwarfish Kingdom.  Old in age, Naphtali was given the words of Viius.  She gave all her reigning powers to her daughter so that she could lead the Dwarves.  Then Naphtali traveled East – to Dokel, home of the Okred people.
Naphtali found the Okreds as poor and weak creatures.  They fled from her when she arrived at their island.  She eventually found a family of Okreds that welcomed her.  They had recently had a child, and Viius spoke to Naphtali that this was the one who he had chosen.  Naphtali performed the ritual and passed the spirit of Lumir to this child.

She stayed in Dokel for a few months after, teaching the parents of this child the ways of the Aidis, and the wisdom of Viius – who was superior to all the other gods.  As Naphtali became weaker with age and the rapid degeneration that followed passing the Lumir Spirit, she eventually returned to the mainland, to her kingdom.  She returned to Ilathpan and was welcomed like a goddess.  She was forever immortalized.  Before she passed away, she had a scribe write down some of her words of wisdom, and what it meant to be a Dwarf.  She gave these words to her daughter, along with her staff to the Forge – telling her to pass the staff on to the next ruler.  Naphtali then passed away peacefully in her sleep.

Well, since the next couple days are gonna be pretty full, I've decided just to post more of the Abatral History onto here, so I have something to still talk about.  These next few stories about the Aidis actually have more of an in-depth story - more so than the last one.  I think one day they will make a pretty cool story if I actually write something on them.  For now, however, I will have to be happy with what I got, and continue on writing my current Illum Story.

Don't forget to read the first two parts - Part I, Part II

Leave some comments - tell me what you think.

Hope you enjoy :)

The Third Aidis

The Third Aidis was an Elf – Eliezer – who easily united the Elves into the Elvish Kingdom.  Early on they found a great Kide Crystal, deeply connected to the Eternal Realm and Viius, which is how they found out about Viius.  Eliezer led the Elves to construct the Viius Sanctum around the Giant Kide Crystal.  Viius was worshiped with extreme devotion.  The only other God that they worshiped was Baesaestia, the God of Balance – one of the original seven Kandryls.  The Elves were deeply connected to magic, as the Giant Kide Crystal filled the entire Elvish Kingdom with Vikus.  Eliezer then formed the Elvish government, where the Elves created a council of leadership, which had seven members – Economy, War, Foreign Affairs, Culture, High Priest, People’s Representative, and Lord.  One of the members, the oldest and wisest, would become the leader of the Council – The Lord.  Naturally, Eliezer became the Lord of the Elves – his family establishing themselves as the Lord of the Elves, out of a decision made by the Elvish People. 

Lord Eliezer became keenly aware that the Kingdom of Man was falling apart.  Eventually, the Great Kingdom did fall apart, with the death of the King of Man and most of the Royal Family.  With no leadership for the Kingdom of Man, the different factions within broke apart and formed small city states, that constantly warred with each other.

Lord Eliezer attempted to aid the humans to unite again, but humanity saw the Elves as a threat, trying to invade their lands.  This led to some armies of men to raid the outskirts of the Elvish Kingdom, killing many Elves.  Lord Eliezer’s War Councilman, created a new weapon.  He embedded the arrows that the Elves would make with Vikus.  This made it so whenever an Elvish arrow was fired, it would never miss its target – as long as the user had the ability to use Vikus. 

The War Councilman formed an army of Elves, armed with these new arrows and with Elvish swords – which were also embedded with magic (most having varying abilities).  He led this army out to meet the humans, and it was a mass slaughter for the humans.  The humans grew to fear the Elves and believed that they would conquer all of them.

Lord Eliezer was furious with his War Councilman, mostly because of the mass slaughter, but also because the War Councilman didn’t get consent from the rest of the Council.  The council then voted to remove the War Councilman.  The War Councilman was angry with the Elves, and Exiled himself from the Elvish Kingdom, taking a few Elves that were loyal to him, and went to the island of Dokel, to join in the Okred society. 

In response to the death, many Councilmen believed that the Elves had lost their way.  They opened up an academy, where they could study and be disciplined in the use of Vikus so that the Elves would never bring harm to those who did not truly pose a threat to them. 

Lord Eliezer spent most of his life helping to mend the fear that the humans had towards the Elves.  After almost 200 years, he finally got to a point where humanity was tired of fearing the Elves.  However, they started fighting amongst themselves again, starting mini-wars.  Lord Eliezer wanted to stop this, but he received his vision from Viius, that it was time to pass on the Spirit of Lumir. 

Lord Eliezer was sad that he had failed at his mission to unite the Realm.  But he traveled to the north, to Dwarfish lands.  He passed the Spirit of Lumir on to a dwarfish girl, who had recently been born.

Lord Eliezer returned to the Elvish Kingdom, feeling weaker now that the Spirit of Lumir was not with him.  He was prepared to meet his death.  His youthfulness rapidly degenerated, and in his last months, he wrote books of wisdom that would be used in the academy made for his people, so that no Elf would forget who they are.  They would become known as the Teachings of Eliezer.  When Eliezer passed away, by the will of the Council, Eliezer’s son was given Lordship.  Eliezer’s wife was given the position of Cultural Council Member.

Abatral History II

 Don't forget to Follow and +1 this blog

Going on with what I did last Thursday, I am going to continue to give some more of the history stories that I've created for the fantasy world I've created.  Hope you enjoy and comment on some of the things that you like 😃

For Abatral History I - go here 

And here is the map for you - so that you can know where things are happening.

And here is the Pantheon of Abatral - so you know who is who.

The First Aidis

The First Aidis strove to forge peace among the corrupted and sinful human race.  They had already formed little tribes and were warring with each other.  The First Aidis – Abda – united the tribes, after going to every Tribe and showing them the love and power of Viius.  Abda brought light and hope to mankind.  Abda was peaceful, and lived as a hermit for most of his life, despite much of mankind wanting Abda to become their leader.  Abda refused and only led their society to show reverence to Viius.  Abda finally united all of mankind after the Okreds invaded the lands of man.  Abda was able to defeat the Okreds, forcing them away – driving them deep into caves and back to Dokel.  Abda eventually was given a vision by Viius to continue to lead mankind, setting up a great society.  Abda became the ruler of Man and developed the First Kingdom of Man.  All of them showed reverence to Viius.  Abda got married and had some children, who would, in turn, surpass him as the king.  Abda eventually passed Lumir’s Spirit to the Saphid race.

The Second Aidis

The Second Aidis was a Saphid who was raised on a small island off the coast of Aquos, in the Aona Islands.  The Second Aidis – Bani – united the Saphids together as one nation, controlling all of the Aona Islands.  They had extreme reverence towards Viius but also worshiped Aqdros, Goddess of the Sea and the mother of Aqdros – Uana, Goddess of Life, Love, and Marriage.
Bani grew the Saphid Naval Power, making it virtually unmatched by any Nation.  Bani eventually was declared the ruler of the Saphids.  Bani started trade with the Kingdom of Man, starting the first relationships between Mankind and the Saphids.  During the later years of Bani’s life, the First Kingdom of Man began to fracture apart.  This was mostly due to Man beginning to fall away from the worship of Viius, and beginning to worship the goddess Aqdros and Uana – because of their connections with the Saphids – and their worship of Ducorrbus – God of fire and war – and Libris – Goddess of Wisdom and Inventions.  Because of Ducorrbus and Libris worship, and the desire for war and to create new inventions, the First Kingdom of Man began to fracture apart as different sections within the kingdom began fighting with each other.  It was around this time that Bani passed Lumir’s Spirit on to the Elves.

Abatral History I

 Don't forget to Follow and +1 this blog

Alright.
So I've decided to share with you guys some of the history that I've created within this world of Abatral.

For starters I'm going to introduce you to the Aidis - a being filled with power.  The Aidis is the reincarnation of the split deity Lumir.  The Spirit of Lumir is passed on to the different cultures of the world become a great leader - I like to think of the Aidis as an Old Testament Judge like character or similar to a Greek Demigod Hero; to be quite honest, I would go as far to say that the Aidis is very similar to the Avatar from Avatar: the Last Airbender.  So if you see similarities, you'll know why.  After all, nothing is new under the sun.

Now as you read this and future posts about this, know that it is a broad overview - a basic knowledge of the things going on in the world.  However, from this broad overview, I will be able to create future stories from it, further building my world.  So tell me what you think by leaving a comment and don't forget to plus one this post and pass it on.  Thanks and enjoy :)

Might wanna take a look at these two pictures before you start 

so know who I'm talking about (Lumir) 

and where I'm talking about (the Fields of Darkness).

And here's some good music to go along with the reading :)

Enjoy!! :D

Lumir’s Spirit

Near the end of the Age of the Spirits, the God of Light and Hope – Lumir – was brought to the Playing Fields by his cousin Kyyja – Goddess of Lust and Rebellion.  Lumir’s pure spirit was corrupted by an ancient evil.  The Superior Deity and Creator God – Viius –  appeared, causing the ancient evil to flee before Viius, leaving Lumir weak.  The darkness was already embedded inside of Lumir.  As darkness is a form of magic that flows through the universe, it cannot be truly destroyed.

Lumir begged Viius to take the darkness from his body, even if it meant splitting him in two.  Viius, taking pity on Lumir, agreed.  Viius split Lumir in two, making Lumir pure again and creating Lunar – which was the essence of Lumir’s dark spirit.  But with the splitting of his spirit, Lumir could not maintain a full bodily form.  Viius then made it so that his spirit would be embedded inside that of his recent creation – mankind, his chosen creatures above all others. 

After Lumir’s Spirit joined with Mankind, Viius inscribed this on a large rock at the center of the Playing Fields, recently renamed the Fields of Darkness:

THE AIDIS:

When days start to set,

Lumir’s Spirit passes on,

To one of pure heart.

They will bring balance,

To a Realm that has lost it,

Bringing peace to all.

It shall shine its light,

Inspire courage in all,

Start fires of hope.

Viius smiles on it,

The one who carries Lumir,

Great and wise Aidis.

And thus the Aidis, defender of Spirits and Humanoids – was born.

Viius increased the power of Lumir’s Spirit, making him have a strong affinity to Vikus.  As the Aidis’ grew older and trained harder, their powers would increase.  A fully realized Aidis would be able to combine its powers with its past lives, as the Spirit of Lumir would be passed to a new humanoid.  

Viius, giving Lumir extra Pure Light Magic, also gave Lumir’s Spirit a powerful connection to Viius himself.  The Aidis would be the voice of Viius in the Realm. 

When the holder of the spirit of Lumir would become old in age they would be given a vision of the next chosen Aidis by Viius.  The current Aidis would have to go on a journey to find this chosen Aidis, to pass on the Lumir spirit to them.  The Lumir Spirit can be passed on to anyone, but most of the time it is given to newborns or young children.

When passing the Spirit of Lumir, the Aidis would say, “By the will of Viius, the superior being, let the light of Lumir’s Spirit live on inside you, for so long as Viius wills it to be so.  May the Aidis with all his power one day restore the balance to this realm.  Viius keep and guide you, forever and ever.”  

With that all the powers of the Aidis would be passed on to the new Aidis, as well as all the knowledge and lives of previous Aidis’.  An Aidis had a defense mechanism, where if they were in serious danger or in intense emotional stress, they would trigger their inner Lumir Spirit.  When an Aidis unleashed their Lumir Spirit – The Vikken State – they would combine their powers with all previous Aidis’, and would be able to perform amazing things.  Their eyes would glow bright blue, along with any scars on their body.  Only an Aidis who had mastered the Vikken State could be able to fully control it; meaning they could control when they entered the Vikken State, left the Vikken State, and could control all of their actions while in the Vikken State. 

If they did not master the Vikken State, then their uncontrolled emotions and risks that they throw themselves into would trigger the Vikken State inside of them.  They would have little to no control of the Vikken State, especially at an early age.  The Vikken State would not be available for use by any Aidis until the Aidis was fourteen years old.  They could use their magic and such, but would have no connection to their Vikken State.  The Aidis could also connect with and speak with previous Aidis’ to seek their advice.  Their connection with Viius also gave them an ability to speak with Viius, specifically in dreams and visions.  

Soon after the creation of the Aidis, Viius saw that mankind had been twisted by the rebellious teachings of Kyyja.  Viius, to his great sadness, had to leave the Mortal Realm.  This was not because he believed he was holier than thou, even though he was; but because if anyone with sin in them stood in the presence of Viius, a being that was the original source of Pure Light – the Maker of all Life and creation – would be instantly vaporized.  Because of this Viius left the mortal plain, and returned to the Eternal Realm – his everlasting Kingdom – so he could not bring harm to the creation that he loved so deeply.  

Viius would send his words to the Aidis, so the Realm would know his will and that he had not abandoned his creation.
