~~ Truths, Myths, and Lies ~~

Everything begins with a myth.

I am here to tell you ours. It is believed or fantasized that our world was once lush and teeming with life. It was a world protected by Gifted beings called Lights. The Earth was a place of beauty. Dreamers say that this world we live in now was not the original. Few believe them.

Those who do say more. Our myth begins with a prophecy. About a Gifted girl. . . Zora. Zora was foretold to lead the world. However, Le disrupted her path. He manipulated her, used her, and turned her. Zora turned her back on the prophecy and instead of protecting the world she destroyed its essence. With Zora at his side, Le took control of the Earth.

Dreamers say he is the reason that our world is dark and full of destruction. As for me, I suppose I would be a dreamer. To me, this myth is not myth but the lost truth.

The beautiful world described in myths depicts a world the exact opposite of ours. Darkness plagues our world. Poverty. Pain. Disease. To those not Gifted these three remain. The Gifted rule under the divine power of their leaders the Li. Descendents of the great leader Le, who united our world one hundred years ago.

He and his descendents are Darkly Gifted. They can use an energy of some sort that lies inside their bodies. Manifested as an orange glow, this energy can be used for anything. Warriors use it to fight by molding it into weapons of immense strength. For example, the current ruler of the Li, Trye, can mold his energy into a sword stronger than titanium and lighter than a feather. His sister, Eyrt, creates a bow and arrows that pierce through 7 concrete walls with precision accuracy. I suppose you would call the Li descendents of the Lights.

The Li are easy to spot. They never appear in less then perfect attire. Suits of luxurious materials and jewels befitting royalty adorn their bodies. The aristocrats of society. The evil they possess is evident in their skin. The Li allow evil to control their hearts. Greed, hatred, lust, envy are just examples of the evil they are comsumed by. As if the blackness inside them is trying to escape through their skin, it changes to an awful gray.

The darker, the stronger.

Not all Lights are evil. The New Lights protected, as Zora was meant to. They fought the Dark Lights, but with Zora against them, they fell. The last great New Light taught Zora and no one else. The New Lights scattered and were lost or killed. Zora’s master was unable to live after his disciple’s betrayal and died soon after. His last words fuel all Dreamers.

Would you like to hear them?

“Despite all the darkness of this world, I believe that someone will rise up to defeat the Dark lights power.”

No New Light could take the place of Zora’s master. Yet, we hope as he did that some day it will all end. All of the darkness will clear.
