Synopsis
Grall, an orc with a unique gift to speak to his ancestors, after witness his wife’s soul be devoured by a demon, lost a battle he had been waging in his subconscious since birth. The Ghul, a being that existed in the time of the first cycle, took over his body and wrecked the world of Xeno-Movia, killing the demon lords and tearing a hole in between the material plane and hell, he cast Tyril, king of Whitewater, to the lowest depth and killed most of the population of the world. Everything would have been lost if not for Grodak, Grall’s older brother and the orcs leader, had killed Grall with the help of a mysterious green sword. A week in the material plane has passed since Grall’s death. Those that survived The Ghul’s attack on the world thanks to Imp, a Pyroniam with immense magic, quick intervention, creating a pocket dimension for the people to stay until it was safe, came back looking lost in time. Children were now adults, young men who had fought for their kingdom now old men. A brutal snowstorm has begun and there is no sign of it stopping. Hell wages war amongst itself to see who is powerful enough to take the empty demon Lord's seat. Food has become scarce and the citizens of Whitewater are starving. Grodak works hard to find a way to feed his people and end this snow storm, even if it means diving into the source, the place that all magic originated from, and force the change upon the world. Cassandra, an Altain who fought against The Ghul possessed Grall, is searching for a way to never be at another’s mercy. Sakurako, Cassandra’s lover, watches over Cass but cannot be seen by her. Drillohiem, Gralls son, must find a way for those around him to trust in him and prove he is not his father. Scarlett, a half-pyroniam/half-human young woman, finds herself looking for her son who had disappeared. Disclaimer The Rebirth Algorithm is a product of Jarada Daedre.

Chapter 1 - Prologue

"She went this way!" 

The girl's heart raced as she ran barefoot over the forest floor. Her long, vibrantly red hair flowed out from behind her as her bright blue eyes frantically scanned the darkness for a way out of this place. This vile place in which she was forced to live. A pearl white dragon flew closely behind her, hanging low to the ground as not to be seen. It was long and nimble with what looked to be translucent feathers running down its spine and fanning out at the tail. 

Suddenly, the ground gave out below her and she felt herself rolling down a steep hill. She hit the ground hard,, a loud "oof" echoed out of her throat. Covering her mouth, she frantically crawled to her feet as pain shot through her left leg. 

Are you okay, Scarlett? The voice was in her head but she knew it well. The girl named Scarlett was born with one soul to two bodies, the sign of a pyroniam.

"I'm fine." she responded in gasps for air. Her body ached her lungs felt as though they were on fire, and she feared for more for someone else rather then herself. "We must hurry before they find us, Amino…" However, much slower due to a sprain in her left ankle, the young girl pushed herself forward. 

"Let me carry you." Amino said, worry and fear reverberated in his voice. "We can fly away from here.."

"No. They'll shoot you down and capture us." Scarlett stated, glancing back to see if they were still following. Light shown in the distance, they appeared to be far away, but Scarlett didn't slow her pace. "They have dragons of their own. For now, we must get far away and find Aziel." She placed a hand on her stomach and it lingered there. "He'll keep us safe…"
