Chapter 3- Sol’s Repulsion
This world is filled with many profound and unknown mysteries, and if one is able glimpse these mysteries, they could go on to wield immense power and become Deity-like beings that could live for thousands of years.
These Deity-like beings then go on to gather followers and rule with either tyranny or benevolence.
As more of such existences appeared and gathered followers, cities, dynasties, then eventually continent spanning regions began to form while having different cultures and understanding of the world.
These two regions were the Eastern Region and the Western Region. This was how the world was separated for a very, very long time. However, nothing lasts forever.
The powerful Deities eventually fell and their followers that were left behind began to mix. After several thousand years, the landscape of the world drastically changed.
The Eastern Region over time saw the formation of three distinct cultures and races.
There were the simple-minded Barbarian people who lived in the desert. They were the largest of the three cultures but at the same time the weakest. There was the second largest civilization, the technologically advanced Sakra people. Then third largest, was the most powerful of the three races, the proud Arkas people.
The Arkas people, or Arkadians, became powerful due to their ability to wield Aether, a power they claim to be superior to all else in the world.
Though the Barbarians and Sakrians can wield Aether as well, because of their location, it was limited. Both had to compensate for that limitation with the Barbarians training their physical bodies to where they can destroy large boulders with a single fist, while the Sakrians focus on developing technologically advanced weapons to compensate for the limited amount of Aether they had.
These were the three civilizations in the Eastern Region. On the Western Region side, however, there were only two.
The Royals and the Seven Great Churches.
