"Welcome, dear reader, to a Xelta a world where a hidden realm of extraordinary individuals, known as Paragons, exists beneath the surface of everyday life.
In this clandestine society, scattered across diverse backgrounds, Paragons discover their innate powers—ranging from telekinesis to elemental manipulation—within the walls of specialized academies.
These institutions, shrouded in secrecy, provide a haven for these gifted individuals to learn, grow, and understand the responsibilities that come with their extraordinary capabilities.
The cities in this world seamlessly blend modern technology with the covert training grounds of Paragon schools.
Paragons lead double lives, attending regular classes while discreetly mastering their powers.
These schools are not just academic institutions; they are crucibles where individuals grapple with the ethics of using their abilities to protect a world unaware of their existence.
As the Paragon community navigates the delicate balance between integration and secrecy, different schools advocate diverse philosophies.
Some schools coexistence with regular society, while others argue for continued concealment, fearing the potential consequences of unveiling their supernatural nature.
In the midst of this hidden world, ethical dilemmas abound, blurring the lines between heroism and villainy.
The fate of the concealed realm hangs in the balance, and the choices made by Paragons within these schools will shape not only their destinies but also the future of both the extraordinary and the ordinary.
My dear readers, in this clandestine world of Paragons, even those without innate supernatural abilities have the opportunity to ascend to extraordinary heights.
Within the folds of society, regular individuals can undergo transformative paths, becoming formidable Mancers or formidable Body Augmenters.
Mancers, as they are commonly known, are those who embark on a journey to unlock the mystic arts.
Specialized academies, distinct from Paragon schools, teach the intricacies of manipulating ancient energies, allowing Mancers to wield spells, summon mystical forces, and weave the fabric of reality itself.
These individuals harness knowledge and discipline to transcend the limitations of ordinary existence, standing shoulder to shoulder with Paragons in the face of extraordinary challenges.
On the other hand, aspiring Body Augmenters delve into cutting-edge technologies and scientific advancements.
These individuals undergo rigorous training, opting for cybernetic enhancements, advanced implants, or genetic modifications that push the boundaries of human capability.
The quest for physical excellence drives Body Augmenters to heights of strength, speed, and resilience previously thought unattainable.
As the worlds of Paragons, Mancers, and Body Augmenters intertwine, a delicate balance emerges, fostering a society where both the supernaturally gifted and those who have forged their strength through determination coexist.
This intricate tapestry of abilities and aspirations weaves together to shape a world where the extraordinary is not limited to birthright but is a testament to the indomitable spirit of those who dare to reach beyond the ordinary.
Furthermore in the enigmatic world of Paragons, a unique dichotomy unfolds—a delicate dance between inherent supernatural abilities and the limitations that come with them.
Paragons, while bound to the growth of their own powers, find themselves both blessed and confined by the very gifts that set them apart.
Unlike regular humans, Paragons cannot augment their strength through traditional means or technological enhancements.
Their journey towards mastery lies solely within the realm of their supernatural abilities, each individual tethered to the unique facets of their power.
This specialization, however, presents a double-edged sword: while Paragons can ascend rapidly in proficiency, their growth is intricately tied to the development of their inherent talents.
On the other side of this metaphysical coin, regular humans possess a versatility that Paragons lack.
Unencumbered by the singular focus on a particular ability, humans can excel in various domains, becoming jacks of all trades.
Yet, a fascinating caveat emerges—their worldview can act as both a conduit and a hindrance to magical prowess.
For humans to tap into the mystical arts, a potent force relies on their willpower.
The ability to perceive and embrace the magical intricacies of the world hinges on their openness to possibilities beyond the mundane.
This juxtaposition of adaptability and worldview sets the stage for a dynamic interplay between Paragons and humans, each grappling with the unique challenges and advantages inherent in their existence within this hidden realm.
Additionally In the expansive canvas of this colossal world, where shadows dance and whispers linger, humans and Paragons tread distinct paths of strength.
Humans, practitioners of ancient cultivation and enhancements, gauge prowess through an intricate system of 8 ranks, each symbolizing the pinnacle of physical and mental achievement.
Conversely, Paragons, bound by supernatural gifts, adhere to a ranking system of 12 tiers, reflecting mastery over their unique abilities.
Yet, amidst this diversity, a revelation surfaces: when these distinct systems merge, a unified global hierarchy of strength emerges, crystallizing into 5 ranks.
Here, the amalgamation of human versatility and Paragon specialization paints a nuanced picture of strength, transcending the boundaries set by individual paths.
As humans and Paragons stand at the crossroads of this interconnected strength hierarchy, a delicate balance unfolds—a testament to the intricate dance between the ordinary and the extraordinary.
Within this globally harmonized order, diverse strengths converge into a singular, united framework that defines the strength of a world where the extraordinary and the mundane coexist.
In this sprawling world, five times the size of contemporary Earth, its vastness dwarfs the familiar landscapes of our current home.
To provide an accurate perspective, if Earth has a surface area of approximately 510 million square kilometers, this colossal planet would boast an astounding 2.55 billion square kilometers.
(TA: Don't ask me how I know my brain hurts enough already)
Despite its immense size, humanity has managed to claim only 54% of this expansive territory.
These calculations reveal that even within this substantial portion—1.377 billion square kilometers—unexplored wonders and untamed wilderness persist. The remaining 46%, a staggering 1.173 billion square kilometers, remains an enigma, untouched by human civilization.
On this colossal planet, ten gigantic continents dominate, each meticulously calculated to contribute to the awe-inspiring total surface area of 2.55 billion square kilometers. Vast oceans, with distances measured with mathematical precision, stretch between these massive land masses.
Amidst this vast expanse, human civilization has claimed a formidable 54% of the territory, establishing a colossal continent and hundreds of miniature islands. Yet, the uncharted realms encompassing 1.173 billion square kilometers remain a mysterious frontier, evoking the allure of untamed wilderness and unexplored wonders.
Beneath the reign of the "Light Of Council Karma," humanity flourishes on the colossal continent named "Ascendora." This sprawling landmass, strategically divided into realms that evoke an ancient grandeur, serves as the epicenter of a united global society.
The LOCK extends its influence across five main smaller islands, each bearing names resonant with an otherworldly charm. These islands, known as Astral Haven, Zenith Archipelago, Eclipse Enclave, Celestial Oasis, and Ethereal Peninsula, stand as majestic pillars within the vast expanse of this enigmatic world.
Beyond the dominion of the LOCK, the remaining hundred smaller islands are governed by a mosaic of smaller organizations, each with its unique ethos.
These diverse entities, akin to celestial constellations in their own right, foster a rich tapestry of cultures and systems.
These smaller islands, collectively referred to as the "Satellite Realms," are a patchwork of governance structures.
From arcane societies to technocratic enclaves, these lesser territories contribute to the multifaceted nature of the Ecliptic Dominion's vast realm.
The coexistence of these varied organizations adds an intriguing dimension to the global tapestry, where the interplay of powers gives rise to a dynamic and ever-evolving world.
The reasons for this limited exploration extend beyond mere logistical challenges. Governments, wielding advanced technologies, carefully orchestrate the concealment of the uncharted regions.
An intricate web of secrecy shields the truth from the public, and memory-controlling devices ensure that the majority remains blissfully ignorant of the untapped expanses that await beyond the familiar territories.
In these concealed realms, the unexplored 46%, fantastical landscapes unfurl, and dangerous creatures reign supreme.
From towering giants and ethereal specters to mythical beings like griffins and elemental spirits, the uncharted territories are a testament to the planet's boundless mysteries.
As humanity grapples with the challenges of their known world, the hidden realms remain an elusive frontier, both enticing and perilous, waiting for the intrepid few who dare to venture into the uncharted depths.
The concealment of the uncharted 46% is a well-orchestrated effort by world governments, leveraging advanced technologies to manipulate and control the memories of the masses.
Memory-altering devices discreetly embedded in communication networks and urban infrastructure serve as tools to shield the public from the truth.
As normal people go about their daily lives, blissfully unaware, government agencies employ subtle memory interventions, shaping collective perceptions and ensuring that the vast, hidden territories remain a secret.
This manipulation extends to education, media, and even interpersonal interactions, creating a carefully constructed illusion that reinforces the boundaries of the known world.
Meanwhile, within the concealed 46%, a realm ruled by dangerous and enigmatic monsters unfolds.
Eldritch horrors, their forms beyond comprehension, haunt the shadows, and their presence defies the laws of nature. Some of these terrifying entities include:
_______________________
____________________
[Nightmare Weavers]
Ethereal entities that manipulate dreams, turning nightmares into waking reality.
[Abyssal Shrouds]
Living shadows that consume light and sanity, leaving only darkness in their wake.
[Spectral Leviathans]
Gigantic, otherworldly creatures that drift through the skies, their haunting cries echoing across the vast expanses.
[Void Stalkers]
Shape-shifting entities that blend into the environment, appearing as ordinary objects until they unleash chaos.
These eldritch monsters, born from the mysteries of the unexplored territories, reign supreme, posing a formidable barrier to those who seek to unravel the secrets hidden beyond the known world.
As governments maintain their grip on public perception, the obscured 46% remains a perilous realm, reserved for the daring few who muster the courage to challenge the boundaries imposed by memory-altering illusions.

In the vast, concealed expanses of this colossal world, where governments weave webs of deception and eldritch horrors lurk in the shadows, the very fabric of reality is shrouded in terror.
Nightmares transcend the realm of dreams, and the unseen forces that govern the concealed 46% cast an ominous pallor over the bravest souls who dare to venture into the unknown.
In this world, where memory is a fragile veil and monstrous entities defy comprehension, every step into the uncharted territories is a dance with death.
Nightmare Weavers twist perception, Abyssal Shrouds devour light and sanity, Spectral Leviathans dominate the skies, and Void Stalkers lie in wait, masquerading as the ordinary until chaos ensues.
Amidst this phantasmal tapestry of fear, a truth lingers—an unsettling reminder that in the hidden realms, everything can kill you.
The very air is thick with the palpable fear of the unknown, and the boundaries between reality and nightmare blur into a chaotic dance of malevolent forces.
In the whispered shadows and echoing cries of the concealed territories, remember this:
In the heart of darkness, where reality and nightmare intertwine, the truest terror lies in what eludes the understanding. Embrace the unknown, for in its enigmatic embrace, one finds the path to the eldritch depths of their own fears.
In shadows kissed by the night's dread,
Eldritch whispers, where nightmares bred.
Dance with fear, embrace the abyss.

In the shadows' tounge, ancient sorrows gently weep, a broken promise never peiced.
