In this existence there is a power known to all as Granum. Granum is the cultivation of the spirit and it's connection to either the heavens or the underworld. And now a the life of a new being that will shake the cosmos is about to breath his first breath. "Look at our baby boy, he is so cute!" the voice of a young woman said happily. "indeed, Charlotte, our baby boy Ignus Marlem will grow up to be strong!" A man of Noble air spoke in response. "Yes, Marn, my darling we will raise Ignus well."
...
Four years later. "Ignus! Tell me the first three ranks of the Granum Mages!" an instructor told Ignus. " They are the infant stages 1,2 and 3!" Ignus responded obediently. "Good" , the instructor replied.
"That will be all for today, Ignus." Ignus quickly got up from where he was seated and exlcaimed "Thank you sir Thane."
Ignus went through the brightly lit corridors of the castle to reach his room. Gold Lined the curtains on the walls, There were many paintings that we're hanging from resplendent marble walls. The floor was marble as well and the light from outside made for a very calm atmosphere.
Now it is time to start cultivating my spirit so that I can become an Granum Infant stage 1! Ignus said this to himself fervently.
Though Infant stage 1 seemed far away, Ignus believed that he could achieve it sooner than most people would think possible. After all, it was uncommen for even children at the age of 14 to start cultivating their spirit and Ignus was only 4!
Despite his age, Ignus did not boast about such a marvelous thing, but instead kept it secret.
Ignus arrived at his room in shortly after leaving the study room and went to a certain spot on his bed where the wood stook out a little. This was negligible and would not be seen unless someone stared at it. Ignus pushed it and an ornate book with the words "Granum For Beginners" revealed itself as a droor was opened.
Finally! I am so close to making it to Infant 1! Ignus thought as he pulled the book out.
