It was always embarrassing being undetermined. I have lived in the sanctuary for at least 8 years, yet no clan has claimed me. Most saviors get claimed within the first two days of beating the beasts at the gate and entering sanctuary. I watch the three new kids following Alana. It was strange. They all had seemed to appear at the doors the same time, and that had never happened before. It was extremely rare for more than one person to enter the gates together. Oh well.
Alana led us through the large doors that held the history house. It was the same ritual every time a new kid came along. Alana and Matt would explain what the heck a savior sanctuary was, then they'd earn their super cool well deserved T-Shirts. Well, if they fit in. If not, they would die. Alana cleared her throat. Oh. Looks like the presentation is about to begin.

Alana points to the brightly colored mural on the wall. "Thousands of years ago, long before the Evolution of today's century, livrdoved the four founders. They controlled all elements of life. Lord Titan, he controlled dirt. He was the mighty powerful, as dirt makes up our earth as it is. All of his people were courageous and risk-takers. Only the bravest of brave. Next is Lady Beatrix, holder of the air, the sky. Represents extreme intelligence and stability."  Matt continued with the next two.
"His Majesty, God Rowan, holder of sea. Most majestic of all, and his people are granted  by wisdom and the knowledge of when to be loyal, and when to betray.
"Last is the goddess Galleria, symbol of fire. Her people are found every where, yet are extremely rare. She symbolizes strength, beauty, and the possible of mysteriousness."

"Behold, the Majestic Four, Reasons for us Saviours' existence! And so, we must avenge, for this is the Cimmerian Legacy!!" Matt finishes strongly. We walked onwards until Alana stopped us once again to point to the mural on the left. This showed fire and lightning and hurricane jumbled together over little villages. This was my cue to talk. "For years, the world lived in harmony, with the powers of the four combining. Alas, all good things must come to an end. The four started fighting, and the world was chaos. People took sides, the gods chose regulars to be their soldiers. Then," I stopped talking.
"Then what?" Asked Thalia.
"Then, as legend has it, all four founders vanished. Mid-fight. Nobody knows what happened, and all traces of their existence  disappeared, making some Cimmerians go crazy. These were the start of the Dark Ages."
We walked on to the next mural, and Alana continued the story. This picture showed fours groups of people, fighting. "Nobody knew what to do. Everybody was tired from the civil war. The soldiers got mad, and fought each other for extreme power. But still, without the four gods, life just wasn't balanced. Soon, even the civil soldiers tired out. It was a terrible time for the people of Cimeria." Everybody became silent until Matt continued his little speech.

"But, all suffering comes to an end! The civil soldiers came up with a peace treaty, starting the era of Rebirth. Every person was divided into 5 clans: Gemini, Sagittarius, Aquarius, Taurus, and the Leo. Each clan represents a god. The Gemini were the royals of the system, who's patron was Lord Rowan. Sagittarius were direct descendants from the gods, connected by bloodline. They were considered the most powerful of the system." Matt scowled in Alana's way, and she smirked smugly. Alana was a Sagittarius, and never let anyone forget it. Matt continued on.
   "This clan is the most rate of then all. There hasn't been a full descendant family in years. Next is the Aquarius clan. People used to say they were the smartest clan of the group, and I completely agree." It was no secret that Matt was an Aquarius, and he liked to keep it that way. "The Aquarius used magic powers to heal war soldiers and even common people. They were the doctors of the 13 century."
"Next is the Leo. They were always the bravest clan, taking after lord Titan. The last clan is the Taurus, most common. They were the commoners of ancient cimmeria, but were occasionally picked by the gods to fight alongside them."
Alana continued the last part of the speech.
"This is where you come in," she gestured to the 3 new kids. "If you truly are a part of the Cimmerians legacy, you will be claimed by one of the five clans   about a week into your stay here," Unless you're like me. "Some of you may wonder what our job is now," Alana continued. "Well, you see, sometimes spirits that were against the gods in the ancient times often threaten the way we live. So our job is to go on missions and protect our legacy." Suddenly we stopped walking. We had reached what was on the other side of the corridor. I had been here many times, yet still it amazed me. It was a large steel door, locked with a vault and decorated with intricate designs. "Any questions before we reach the weapon room?" Alana asked. Jonas raised his hand. "So do the gods still exist? Where are they?" Matt and Alana looked at each other uncertainly. "Well," Alana answered. "The gods exist, but their location is unknown to most people. The people who do know choose to keep it a secret."
"Well how do you know if they even exist then?" Asked Logan.  Alana answed calmly.  "We Sometimes get messages from the gods. Although we are not sure where they live, the gods will sometimes come down to talk to the head director or camp. Even though I do not see the gods directly every day,   I gave seen them talk to many important people. Any other questions?" This time Thalia raised her hand. "You said that the Sagittarius clan were descendants of the gods, which means that the gods can have children. So what is the children's job?"
Alana looked at Thalia strangely and raised her eyebrows. "The Sagittarius clan are long distant relatives of the gods. If the gods did have children recently, which is highly unlikely, they would....they would be banished. They would be Forbidden."

So!!! The update is finally here!!! How do you like the story so far?? Is it confusing? I promise it won't be so confusing later on. Just grasp on to the information in this chapter. This chapter was sooooo hard to write. Took me a month. Oh and cimmeria is completely made up, along with the clans. They clans have nothing to do with when you were born, or the zodiac cycle. Also, now that you know a little about the story and the main plot line, can somebody make me a cover?? Lol. I don't like mine right now but I'm too lazy to make another one. So I think that about it...

Hope you enjoyed!!

P.S: Can anyone think of a good cast to portray my characters? From the next chapter, I will be posting some good options to what my characters might look like. Ok I'm done
