The Nine Relics

In the Golden Age, the King of Celestia ruled the world, bringing peace and prosperity.

El'thia, the spirits of the world, was pleased with deeds of the great king.

El'thia gave her blessings and mana overflows throughout all lands ruled by the great king.

El'thia then chose the most intelligent artisan, to be the Maker, to craft powerful artifacts for the great king.

With enlightenments and guidance of El'thia, the Maker learned the wisdom of truth and knowledge of worlds.

The Maker then created a set of artifacts and presented to the great king.

Each artifact utilizes the overflowing mana to perform supernatural ability, which the Maker calls them as Magic.

Through out the Golden Age, 9 artifacts are made for the King of Celestia.

They are recorded in the world history of El'thia, called The Nine Relics:
Gear of Fate
Spirits of Arrow
Sword of Mana
Tower of Mage
Breath of Fire
Chain of Fiends
Blood of Longevity
Orb of Sefer
Crown of Halves

The Maker then become the prophet, messenger, historian, scholar, sage and the first magician of El'thia.

Tower of Mage, the world library of magic, became the home of the Maker.

The Spirits of Arrow, reformed art of archery into Arrowmancery.

The Breath of Fire, mastered by a clan of Shapeshifters, they then called themselves Drakonis.

The Blood of Longevity, stolen by a freeman, being cursed, he become the first Bloodin kind.

The Chain of Fiends, misused by a foul wizard and a great demon, they created the new breed of demon known as Nefas.

The Orb of Sefer, studied by scholars who succeed in popularizing magic, they are known as Sofer. With such legacy, all Elthians have great respect toward Sofers and Scribes, their descendant.

The Crown of Halves, Omnisouler

NEXT:
The Golden Age ends at the time of King Celestiels.

The Nefas, demon kin, desires to conquer heaven, war against Celestia.

The Great War of Celestia.

Based on the Mana Sword, the Seven Blades are forged:
Axinite
Hyalite
Inferite
Celestine
Tourmaline
Byrite
Draconite

When Celestia fallen, the demon captured the Maker.

To conquer the world, the Nefas controlled the mind of Maker to create Demon Sword, a weapon that can kill El'thia.

The Nefas replicated the Seven Blades to forge Demon Sword.

27 Demon Swords are made...

Excerpt of 27 Demon Sword

I wrote story of many
I write plentiful of them
I whine and spite all of them

The urge to write, too few that lasts.
Story of no soul, too wrong to stay.
If you don't change now, you will forever be the same.

So, what if I change?
What will happen then?
Do I hope to be any different?
What kind of future will stay the same?

Chaos, is the root of all change.
Chaos, know not of time.
Chaos, know not of bound.

Chaos defies truth, is its own truth.
Chaos defies itself.

Chaos creates the desire within us.
All stories that I wrote,
they are my desire, they are but chaos.
So I write this, the Story of Chaos.

"The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was[a] on the face of the deep." (Genesis 1:2)

Chaos, without form, and void.

To create out of nothingness, is the job of maker.
God create world from Chaos, so does the Maker.

Are you a maker?

The Maker Sword

The Mana Beast, is the manifestation of Nightmare, it is both Fear and Dream.

Aganix struggled through a long journey, he seek a way to get back Dream, yet the Mana Beast is not easy to deal with.

At last, the Mana Sword answered, Aganix Wizardsnare chosen the path of Mana Knight over the path of Nefas.

Elder Hong's last wish, is to allow the Shadol to survive, he sacrificed himself to grant a second chance for Xinaga.

Hence, Aganix Wizardsnare were born.

As Aganix realized what a great deal that Elder Hong sacrificed for him, he vowed to the great will, to become the sword of the Great Will

Ripping off himself, out from the body of doll, the will of Aganix merged with the mana sword, his mind became empty.

The mana doll prayed to the Great Will and the Great Will accepted His knight, and allowed Aganix to borrow the divine strength.

A complete double edge broadsword was forged, it is the Mana Sword of Maker.

A clean cut, slices the Mana Beast into halves, one half turned into Dream, another half into Fear.

After such long time, Aganix rejoice as Dream finally returned to him.

The Mana Sword of Maker then broken into halves.

The Great Will told Aganix to seek the power of Mana Knight, to reclaim the Mana Sword.

Aganix then ventured into Fregmor.

Corrupted Mana Beast

It was during my mission to stop the war between Bloodin and Drakonis

I accidentally conjured a Poltergeist with the shape of Nightmare Mana Spirit, it turned into a beast form, which similar to the shape of a dragon.

The Mana Beast went berserk, attacking the Eldest Bloodin.

Such act is an insult to the all Bloodin, my name as a Mana Knight is at stake...

Omnium Gatherum

Long have I acquired the power of Poltergeist, despite being able to quickly mastered it to allow me to conjure them in mass amount, I still find this army to be far from what I seek.

To my surprise, as I concentrate my imagination upon one specific Poltergeist, I could, shape it into any form of hero that I remember in my past experience. I discovered this upon my first encounter of my previous self, my shadow, the Shadol, Xin Arrowmancer.

As I fought Xin in the world of Mana Spirits, I learned the ability of mass casting and looping shot from him.

To discover that my hybrid spell, Gungnir, is actually a copy from my Arrowmancer past: Rai Strike is the bow and Mana Sword is the arrow, it is indeed based on Energy Arrow.

"You were me, and so, I am you and part of you, I shall be..." Xinaga said

Upon focusing my thought, I returned to the material world, and I discovered that what I was fighting, is no Shadol, but a Poltergeist that I conjured, with the image of my Arrowmancer past, it was conjured subconsciously as I awakened my past memory.

Then, I conjured another Poltergeist, and imagined the shape of an Omnisouler. The Poltergeist splits into two halves, half flame and half ice. With this success, I then continued down my list until I could not remember any more of other heroes.

The last one is the shape of the Mana Spirit, Dream, to be my mana source in sustaining such huge amount of mana consumption. I turned the Poltergeist into a Rune Hauberk, and merged with it.

I named this army as Omnium Gatherum.

Act 0

In life, you will meet a lot of people. Among those people, you will bond with some of them and call this connection as friendship.

However, there's one phenomena, whether you like it or not, there are some people whom you cannot befriend with, no matter how much you tried. You and that "fellow" cannot connect, it is not because of first impression, awkward incidents, complicated relationships, etc... But fate will be in the way and eventually you gave up on trying anymore.

It is not because that "fellow" doesn't want you as his or her friend, the matter in fact, that "fellow" want to be your friend as much as you do.

For my case, I have such a "fellow" who we meet almost every week, we worked on the same projects, organize camps, and we look up each other, but we are no friend.

Still, we are not involved in each other's life, we do not care about each other's personal business, we do not spent unnecessary time with each unless it is work. We, have no bond.

In a few previous camps that we organized, we tried to create such bond, but somehow it doesn't work. It feels like, his world has a barrier that stopped us from creating a bond, a barrier only accept chosen friends, and that barrier decided that I am just a "follow" so I'm forbidden to enter his world.

I know its not just me, because, I have such a world in me.

"I am... my mana world." He said

I am a Mana Maker, since then, I realized that I am not alone.
