Prologue
© The Fate of The Air
❛❛ Once you have tasted flight,
you will forever walk the earth
with your eyes turned skyward,
for there you have been,
and there you will always
long to return ❜❜
- Leonardo Da Vinci
It's always been known that to live a peaceful life, everything on the earth has to be balanced and well distributed. Every kind of human must have the same rights and duties as the others, everybody must be treated in the same way and no exceptions must be tolerated. That's why, when in different cities of the world started to appear people with strange gifts, the government had no other choices: they immediately had to get rid of them, all of them.
After a few experiments, they discovered the sources of these powers; they only develop inside of those who have an excess of one of the four body fluids: blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile. An excess that the world couldn't afford to tolerate, not after all the effort that the human species had made to be able to get where they had come, to be able to reach the creation of a perfectly balanced world.
A new law was then enacted: all new births would be subjected to strict controls, and if one of the four excesses would have been detected, they would be immediately deported away from their family and their homeland.
It's precisely in this piece of land isolated from the rest of the world that this story takes place, where the different, the excluded, the destroyers decided to create their new home, a home where their powers wouldn't have been illegal, but would have become their greatest strength.
