SURPRISE!!

Soooooooo I just got out of work and decided to write a chapter. It's a lot, and it could be confusing, but it will reveal a lot about the realm. I probably won't be able to make a chapter this weekend so I thought I might give it to you early. I hope you enjoy it, through all the craziness!!

Evelyn, Atlas, Harley, Jax, Lily, Lucian, Ember and Keyren are online.

As the group dispersed around the Gathering Hall, the group decided to find Peter. Lily caught sight of Peter by the oak doors and nodded for the group to follow. When they approached Peter, he guided them down a narrow hallway, and to a set of stairs. The group climbed up two floors, and Peter approached a statue of a eagle. On the other side, there was a matching eagle. Peter tapped eagles beak three times, and the eyes glowed.

Lucian: oooooooohhhhhhhhhh

Keyren: creeepppy

Ember: well said to you both.

Peter gestured for the group to quickly enter as he made sure to close the door discretely.

Atlas: Alright, we're here. Can you please tell us?

Peter; Yes. But it's a very long story. So please have a seat.

Atlas: if we are going to be here for a while, we at least need to have some snacks.

Peter: *sighs* fineeee *pulls out drawers full of snacks*

Jax: O-o

Peter: Now, let us start, at the beginning......

Anala is a magical realm that has existed for many years. There was a man, named Desmond. He was a man who came from another kingdom not of this world.

Evelyn: Wait, there are more kingdoms?

Disowned by his father, he decided that he would create a life for himself. He took 5 of his most trusted friends, and they agreed to travel, around their realm. Well that realm, was Earth.

Harley: No. Way.

Lily: I'm sister shook.

Atlas: WICKED!! How on earth did he land here?

Desmond landed in a town called Seattle, and encountered a man at a museum. The caretaker saw something in him, and offered to take him in for a few days, only if Desmond would walk with him every evening. Desmond agreed, and found the Caretakers tales interesting. One evening, they walked to a large oak tree, and the old man stopped. The man turned to him and suddenly asked "Do you and your friends wish for something more in life, something with adventure?" Desmond responded with a "yes" and the old man smiled.

"Where I come from, there are many realms to travel to. I decided that I would be the creator of this realm, so that people could come and travel between realms to create an alliance. "

Keyren: Does Anala still have an alliance with the other kingdom?

Peter: wait, I'm not there yet XD

Desmond and his friends quickly conversed and agreed that they had nothing to lose if they went to this kingdom. They were outcasts, no home, no money to their name, and no one to wish them to stay. They decided to go, and the old man opened a portal to that caused the oak tree to glow a silvery blue.

Lily: Just like the way we escaped from the mercenaries!

Ember; What. The. Bell.

When they arrived, they went to Marcus's Mansion, or often known as the Author's mansion. It was there that he showed how he created the realm. He was the author, and through a magic quill and brown book, he was able to create whatever he wanted.

Marcus (the care taker) only wanted a peaceful realm that was filled with happiness and joy. Desmond and his friends stood in awe of the realm, and thanked Marcus for bringing them there.

Lucian: How does a realm exists for so long?

Peter: Anala runs on a different timeline. Since Marcus is the author, he wanted a realm that would last for a lifetime. The people of this world are immortal, so they could live for hundreds of years.

One day, Desmond was working on building a house when he saw a fair maiden in the forest. Enchanted by her beauty, he was determined to win her heart.

Atlas: ayyyyyy home boys confident

The maidens name was Annalyn, she was the princess of the realm as the younger child. Her father, was King Derik, and he loved Annalyn with all of his heart. He had hoped that she would marry a noble of the kingdom, but Annalyn liked none of them. She found Desmond to be most interesting, and was eager to investigate. It took no time at all for the two to fall deeply in love. If anyone had found out that the princess was courting, it would be disgraceful and disrespectful to the Royal family. Dating a mortal was unthinkable.

Evelyn: Omg harsh much?

Annalyn and Desmond didn't care, they knew that they belonged together. Annalyn couldn't bear the thought of separating from her love, so she decided to give half her mortality to her lover, making their life last shorter than the average age a immortal would die.

Harley: hang on, how long do these people exist for?

Peter: about 700 years. Annalyn and Desmond would only live for another 400 years.

Lily: O-o so what happened next?

Peter: Then Annalyn presented her love to her father, and he was most pleased. They were quickly approved to get married, and soon King Derik died, allowing Desmond to ascend as King. The kingdom would soon expect for Annalyn to be pregnant, and it didn't take very long. In addition, her sister was pregnant, with twins. Soon, their due dates arrived, and Annalyn gave birth to three girls. Her sister Amara gave birth to two girls, and a year later gave birth to a boy.

Ember: well Anala was certainly going through some baby making seasons if ya know what I mean.

Peter: Many years passed, there were there were 11 people that went to the academy together. Each person had a different power, and they worked well together. One day, one person betrayed the group, and decided that they would take over the realms. She decided that she would go after Marcus's realm where he grew up, and killed everyone. She desired to have all the power in the world, but she needed a kingdom first, Marcus's old kingdom was dead and unlively, and took the citizens magical powers for herself. She used all of her defenses of darkness to attack the realm of Anala. The rest of the group worked fiercely together to lock her in the evil land.

Jax: GO TEAM!!

Peter: However, I believe that Amaras daughters will return and release their mother

Keyren: well crap

Peter: there is a prophecy that a group of heroes will come to save the day and vanquish them once and for all.

Harley: and you think we are the heroes?

Peter: Yes. I believe that the more time we waste, the more time that is wasted on training you on your powers, and the more time the team grows.

Evelyn; Why did you have to come and get us then? Wouldn't we be safer on Earth?

Peter: no. Amara is very powerful, and can easily make portals to wherever she wanted. If she were to come to Seattle she would destroy your world.

Lily: so how did you teleport?

Peter: practice of course. You may not understand it, but you will later.

Lucian: so what happened after you destroyed them?

Peter: well, the rest of the group decided to divide the kingdom into 6 parts. In a sense, it's a hierarchy, but we need all 6 components to work together to make a harmonious realm.

Greenmore house: These people can include farmers, gardeners, merchants, or any other occupation related to such. These are the type of people who work to make sure the realm has enough food, and can often be found creating magical foods and potions. They also focus on using the greenery to benefit the realm.

Estorn House: These are your healers. They are vital because they heal any citizens or the realm. They are most creative when it comes to creating potions or experimenting with healing properties.

Chavaril House: this House is the house of the shapeshifters. There main job is to create an army to back up the royal army. They have a tremendous amount of strength, courage, and honor when it comes to training for the realm.

Silverburn: This House is for the blacksmiths, and the inventors. They are responsible for creating weapons for the realm and for the army. They can often be seen using magical properties to make weapons stronger.

Lochwell House: This House is for the immortal warriors who train to defend the royal family, and the realm. Not only do they train physically, but magically as well.

Fairvas House: This House is the closest to the royal family. They advise them on what they should do, and help them decide what is the best way to rule the kingdom. These include your advisors, the nobles, and politicians.

Each house has a noble who represents the opinion of the people.

Evelyn: well that was certainly..... a lot...

Ember: you could say that again.

Peter: and now, it is time to see what house you come from before you begin your studies.

Keyren: How is it that we can descend from one of the six houses?

Peter: because you have had a parent with magic, and you were all born in this realm.

Atlas: O-O Then how are we on earth?

Suddenly, the bell rang and Peter escorted the children to the town square, where the group would be sorted into their houses.
