Warrior's Legend

The Past...

The universe began in complete oblivion, a void of nothingness. There was no life at all to take place within this abyss of nonexistence. For an uncertain amount of time, this emptiness survived alone. In a miraculous moment… there seemed to be some type of life beginning to grow within this nothingness.

This life existed as a beautiful bright shining LIGHT that was so radiantly white it was almost blinding when gazed upon. This light was pure energy and contained all of the different elements that would make up a universe.

The light expanded almost indefinitely over time. In one fleeting moment, the light seemed to lose its ability to swell anymore. It burst with a beaming aura of intense energy, and then collapsed onto itself.

Shortly after the moment of collapse, all of the elements that were gathered within, burst out and filled the space of the universe with planets, moons, and a sun. The elements that formed this life were as follows…

Earth.

Rocks and soil bound together to create flatlands, hills, and mountain chains that made up the land for a planet. From this land grew grasses, flowers, trees, and gigantic forests.

Water.

Chemicals bonded together to create the liquid that would provide nourishment for the foliage of the planet, and fill up over half of the planet’s chasms and trenches that dip deep within the land.

Fire.

Heat grew to dangerously high temperatures deep in the center of the planet. Hot magma erupted from openings of the land with intense heat that ignited the timbers of the area in flames. The flame had the ability to spread destruction in the blink of an eye.

Wind.

The air moved in all directions to pollinate the land, give waves to the water, and feed the flame. It had the ability to transport information over long distances. It had the force to be light and delicate, or hit with intense and biting force.

Light.

The light itself represented goodness and a special connection to everything in existence. It signified sentience and all life throughout the universe. It was everything righteous and moral.

Darkness.

The darkness represented all evil. It was a disconnection of all things just and reasonable. It was an insane war of horrible emotions, death, and nightmares.

The essence of the light chose to reside in and around the one planet that seemed perfect for inhabiting sentient life. The essence chose the form of a goddess and called herself ESPIRIT. She named the planet Terra Nova, and gave form to the ESSENCES of earth, water, fire and wind.

These forms were the physical, identifiable entities that would represent and guard the different energies that made up Terra Nova. They housed within themselves their individual forces that played a role in creation. Espirit instructed these ENTITIES to protect all life that resided on the planet.

She proceeded to give each of the Entities a temple to dwell in and watch over the living spirits of the land. The temples were placed all over the planet at different regions so that all areas were protected.

She then gave life to the only other sentient beings deemed TERRA NOVANS. These beings were diverse creatures. But all were filled with the light of goodness that connected all life in the world and universe.

The novans divided themselves into different sections around the temples. As the Novan civilization grew, their bodies and minds evolved and adapted to each of their environments flawlessly. And they became stronger and more intellectualized. The planet continued to flourish with life and intelligence even in the face of firm coercion. The world thrived and there seemed to be no end to the progression of the Novan race.

They were simple people who followed one unified belief system. They recognized Espirit as their goddess and the guardians of the elements, the Entities. They followed uncomplicated commandments that seemed more common sense than anything else.

It was also believed that Espirit gave novans a streak of darkness. And it was the responsibility of the novan to follow specific, infallible guiding principles that allow the light to overcome that novan’s evil darkness. If the darkness took over, that novan was sure to endure intense pain and suffering. However, the goddess insists that this evil presence was not born with or by her, but was conceived on its own like her and grew over many centuries.

For the first millennium, it showed itself only as strange emotions like jealousy. Greed. Hostility. Hatred. And conceit.

It developed throughout the second millennium and included peculiar and fearful visions at night.

During the last millennium, violence rose between novans so tremendously that brothers and sisters learned to shed their own kin’s blood.

The Present...

Over the thousands of years, novans learned to protect themselves from any evils with physical, psychological, and academic training. Though there was yet to be a threat large enough to cause worldly chaos and destruction. However, it is 3001 A.C. now, and a new millennium has begun. The Novans question what this terror will evolve into now.

Strange and ominous events have been taking place all over the lands recently. Lately, monsters and deformed creatures are invading and attacking the lands of Terra Nova. Regardless of how often these beasts are defeated, more come every day to destroy the land.

Novans can no longer sleep peacefully because of the bad dreams at night. And now must endure the maddening hallucinations that come and go during the day. No one can be certain where the essence of this terror resides or why it has come to be at all. But it is clear that these beasts and visions will soon destroy the planet and all life on it if not defeated.

The Entities were blessed with long lasting life. And now three thousand years after the creation of the universe, their bodies are comparable to an elderly one hundred year novan. They have known they have been too weak to fight for themselves for a lengthy time and prepared for this by choosing their most trusted FIGHTERS throughout the land to protect the novans after the Entities deaths. These fighters are given the title of PROTECTORS.

The Entities with their last efforts tried to battle the biggest fiends that attacked their temples. But each of the Entities was overthrown and imprisoned. The Protectors are responsible now for defending their regions from the brutes that are overrunning and assaulting the lands, and rescuing the Entities from capture.

An eager warrior who resides within the Earth Region desires to lead the Protectors in the war against evil.

She is extremely well trained in physical combat…

Magic…

And academics.

However, her origins are unknown and she is under constant examination. The townspeople believe that the Protectors cannot be lead by just a simple warrior who may or may not have brought on this unstoppable evil. The beginning of the end truly begins with this novan. This will begin the legend of the warrior goddess...
