Grandma's stories

In the present country of the humans, lies a city towards the east, near the river of Flowers and hidden by the pillars of eternity, sixteen large mountains shaped like pillars of a castle, one of the four Wonders of the earth. The city is named Ising, it houses thousands of humans and is considered the most beautiful city in the country. In this city, an old woman has always told the kids of the city about the story of an ancient kingdom. Her grandson is the most interested in these stories. Everytime he goes visiting his grandma she would tell him the same story, he has almost memorized the story given the amount of time he has heard that story from his grandma. Yet here he was at his grandma's house asking to hear the story again. "Settle down kids and let the stories begin" his grandma started.

"In the near distant past, some hundreds of years ago, there was an empire, a safe haven for people of all races, it was said to have a king, his nine royal guardian knights and a great sorcerer with unfathomable powers. It Walls were protected by the Aura of the guardian knights. Aura is the projection of one's presence or life energy. Only a few gifted people are able to use Aura, one's Aura gives a perfect immitation of one's soul. Those who can sense Aura can tell exactly who the user is truly. In this ancient kingdom lived five races; the humans, the elfs, the dwarfs, the fairies and the queens. The Queens were the strongest race and the most sinister in actions. With the kingdom being at exactly the center of the earth, it took pride in leading and helping the people of the earth. Being the only advanced civilization with strong and brave warriors and being the only place on Earth where all five races lived in harmony and peace, it's name was known all over the world. It was the destination for everyone who wanted to live a war free live.


The outside world at that time was always in chaos, bloodshed and conflict. The kingdom was an exception because of it's might. Unfortunately, a battle broke out from within the kingdom amongst the very people who were supposed to be guarding it. The guardian knights consisted of all the races except for the queens. So the queens conspired against the kingdom and incited disagreements between the guardians. The guardians fought and by so doing weakened their protective Aura on the walls of the kingdom. With corporation from the outside world, the queens tried to over throw the kingdom's higher ups and secure those positions but their plan backfired. The walls of the kingdom fell and so did the guardian knights, but as the great sorcerer of the kingdom saw that the Queens were winning he casted a spell. A spell to limit the powers of the ever strong queens by reducing the average Queen's strength, ability and Aura output half way. The Queen's were now outgunned since they had the lowest population of the five races. The kingdom fell and the five races regrouped, picked out locations, built civilizations. Now unlike before, the chaos in the world was directed to members of the other races and not interracial.

Legend has it that before the kingdom disbanded, the guardian knights reconciled and then came up with nine stories about the kingdom. In order to inspire the youths to seek them and hopefully as the legend suggests, revive the kingdom once again. These stories were named,
TALES OF A KINGDOM
