Chapter 1; The Celestial Era

Long ago in the early days of the universe's creation, Elio, a male ali-human with short hair and eyes who's color resembled the sky at each time of day, and his partner Celestia with long green hair with a dress woven from plants and different kinds of fur, were the first known ali-humans to exist in the world. Both had extraordinary powers and always used those powers for good.

Elio's power was to bring forth the sun when it was dawn and the moon when it was dusk. Celestia's power was to grow different kinds of plants and create different kinds of animals such as growlbeasts, cuddlepups, swampkins, grossums and many other creatures. but her favourite species she created were the Glowflies, small little bugs with a fuzzy body that glowed in elio's night and also loved to sing and fly.

The loving pair cherished each other deeply and couldn't bear the thought of being separated. However, their lives took an unexpected turn when they welcomed four new additions to their family. The firstborn was named Cajus, followed by their two daughters, Mansa and Melodia, and the youngest of the bunch was named Silvio.

However when they would get a little older, their lives would take an unexpected turn for the worst...

Chapter 2; Celestia's Passing

When the four children were around the age of 4 and under the supervision of their parents, they visited the mountains where Elio and Celestia would go to clear their minds by looking over at the scenery from above when disaster struck.

As they were enjoying their day out in the mountains, a sudden avalanche appeared in the distance and started moving towards them. The children and their father realized the danger and immediately started running away, hoping to escape. Thankfully, their mother was there to help them and together they found a nearby cave to hide in. However, the mother suffered greatly in the process, sacrificing her safety for the sake of her family.

It was a very devastating time for the little family and for the land around them. Because not only did they have to learn to grow up without their mother's guidance, but also keep the plants from wilting and going extinct. However the animals depended on celestia since she provided the herbivores with the plants they needed to survive on. This event would later be known as "The Wilting Cataclysm"

So Elio took the role of his wife's task to grow the plants while also raising and lowering the sun and moon each day but after 4 years, he was growing weary and the grass and plants were beginning to die.

The 4 children, now at the ages of 8 needed to find a way to help their father and help the land grow but couldn't find a way. But one day that's when Cajus came up with an idea. He picked up a wooden stick and craved several holes into it before smoothing it out and polishing it and began to play it. 

The sounds coming from this thing that cajus made sounded pleasant to the ears and seemed to help motivate Elio. When melodia asked cajus what the name of this incredible invention was he called it "The recorder".

When Eilo heard the sounds that Cajus' recorder was making, he suddenly got an idea. He sprinkled some of his magic on the recorder and when the notes flowed out, within minutes, The grass became greener, some of the plants became sentient and the land was fully restored to its former glory. From that moment on cajus' recorder would become a powerful artifact and would be known as "Mother Nature's Recorder". And thus, a brand new era began...

Chapter 3; A New Beginning

After "The Wilting Cataclysm", Elio decided to retire from raising and lowering the sun and moon everyday and cast an enchantment that would make the sun and moon move by themselves for all eternity so Elio wouldn't tire himself out. 

As the four children continued to grow, their unique personalities started to become more evident. Cajus displayed immense courage in all situations, and his razor-sharp intellect was highly impressive. Mansa was a bold and determined individual, always standing up for what she believed in. Melodia was known for her exceptional kindness and compassionate nature, which extended to everyone she met. Silvio, on the other hand, had a tendency to be clumsy and fearful.

One day however as the four children were exploring the woods together, the four children stumbled upon three unique crystals. One was as yellow as sand, another as blue as the sea, and the third and final one as black as night. When Mansa, Melodia, and Silvio each touched one of the crystals, they underwent a remarkable transformation.

After touching the crystals, Mansa appeared to have the mane and tail of a lion, along with dark brown wings and a barbed horn. Melodia's skin underwent a change, becoming crystal blue, while her hair turned turquoise and flowed like a waterfall. Her horn was also curved and faded to sea-foam green at the tip, and her wings had transformed into fins similar to those of a fish, with a dark aqua siren tail. Meanwhile, Silvio's skin had become a smoky grey, his hair turned ghost-like, his wings became more bat-like, his horn twisted up and gained a snake-like tail.

As Cajus observed the changes in his younger siblings, he couldn't help but be amazed. Though he was aware of the magic of crystals, he had never seen them imbue individuals with animal-like qualities before. Upon closer inspection, Cajus realized that these were no ordinary crystals. They had been created by the universe itself, infused with the magical essence of mythical creatures. The yellow crystal contained the essence of a Sphinx, the blue crystal contained the essence of a Siren, and the black crystal contained the essence of a Bat.

Without wasting a moment, the 4 siblings went home to their father to tell him what had happened. When they did, Elio's eyes lit up in surprise, Mansa, Melodia and Silvio seemed hardly recognizeable with all their new features. So that's when an Idea popped into elio's mind, what if the future was a world where there would be 4 ali-human tribes that could maintain order and promote in harmony?

The idea was perfect, not only in creating new tribes but also establishing a system for them to live in perfect harmony. So for the next few years Elio taught his children how to be the perfect rulers and to always be there for their kingdoms no matter what. Until the time was right...

Chapter 4; The 4 Tribes

After years of dedication and hard work, they had finally achieved their dreams. Elio, now an elder, bestowed upon Cajus the title of "King of the Musical Ali-humans" and located his kingdom in the clouds. Mansa was granted the title of "Pharaoh of the Egyptian Ali-humans" and situated her kingdom in the midst of the desert. Melodia's kingdom was situated on an island in the middle of the sea, where she was given the title of "Queen of the Aquatic Ali-humans." Silvio was given the title of "King of the Umbra Ali-humans" and located his kingdom in the caverns. These four remarkable individuals were now rulers of their own kingdoms, each with unique cultures and customs.

The Musical Ali-humans were known as "The Creators of Music" and cherished that title greatly, with different instruments such as the flutes, harps and many other kinds of musical instruments. The kingdom they lived in was named "Volaponimbus". Cajus was a remarkable leader. He would teach his subjects the ways of living and how to create music. There Cajus married a gorgeous ali-human woman named Claudia. In the months that pasted the king and queen were given their first child. A radiant baby girl who's hair were flowing and many colors of purple and violet eyes whom they named "Fantasia".

The Egyptian Ali-humans in the land of "Signenai" on the other hand, learned agriculture and grew plenty of crops for the kingdom as well as the other 3 kingdoms and were also known as "The Bringers of Sandstorms". Like the other kingdoms, they were a peaceful kingdom though they weren't afraid to blind their enemies with their powerful sandstorms.

The Aquatic Ali-humans on the island of "Paradiso Anew" thrived in harmony and love, promoting their kindness throughout the lands by giving their waters to the other kingdoms and are known as "The Creators of the Seven Seas" and had the ability to move water to their will and make Tsunamis. However they never used their powers for violence and were against the idea of conflict.

The Umbra Ali-humans became known as "The Bringers of Shadows" due to their almost ghostly appearance to scare off any predators such as bats, jackals and panthers amongst the shadows of "Sylablackia".

The 4 siblings ruled their lands with pride and joy and never put them in jeopardy. And everyone was thriving in harmony...for now.

Chapter 5; Silvio's Descent into Darkness

While the youngest Silvio loved his kingdom, he began to feel an emptiness growing and a thirst for the knowledge of crystals. He felt like he needed to fill in a void in his chest. Then he remembered something. The crystal that turned him into what he was today, Could it still be around? there was only one way to find out. He ordered his royal guard to search for the black crystal and to bring it to him as soon as they found it.

When the royal guard had found the crystal, Silvio took the crystal to the deepest parts of the caverns and began to conduct a series of experiments to try and better understand the magical capabilities of the crystal.

As the weeks passed to months, Silvio's mind became more and more focused on the crystals and less on his kingdom and siblings. His mind began to wither away with only one objective "Harness the power of the crystal".

Finally one day, his siblings managed to catch wind of what Silvio was doing and went to the caverns to reason with him. However he ignored them and then with a blast of his magic at the black crystal, He underwent a terrible transformation...

He grew bigger, with the dark magic growing stronger and stronger within him, his mind twisted in many directions. Soon he was unrecognizable, His skin was jet black with his limbs matching of that of a panther, fangs like a werewolf, glowing white eyes with black slit pupils and he had gained limbs and tentacles made from shadows. The 3 older siblings were horrified, before their very eyes their youngest brother was becoming a monster. Cajus and his sister cried for Silvio but he was no more. He was now "King Dystopiar, The Lord of Destruction and Hatred". And then he spread that darkness throughout his kingdom, turning his people into mindless rabid animals.

The 3 siblings had no choice but to fight him and banish him with his people. The battle was fierce and vicious, they did not want to fight him but they had no choice. When Dystopiar had fallen, Cajus, Mansa and Melodia blasted him with their magic, banishing him and his kingdom to the deepest parts of the caverns.

After the battle, they stood there, guilt and devastation boiling in them...had they done the right thing? Melodia began to cry, Mansa and Cajus comforting her...before Cajus muttered under his breath; "Forgive us brother..."
