Long ago, when the Earth was created, the land was divine. A multitude of ecosystems filled entire lands, animals roamed freely without a sense of danger, waterfalls miles long, oceans full of diverse life. Everything coexisted with each other in peace, until...
The humans came, deforesting spiritual lands, killing intelligent animals, slaughtering anything that got in the way of their great empire, and with the death of 62% of all life, the humans started constructing their vast ancient empire.
The humans used the Earth's materials to make golden and green flying cities, underground high-speed railroads spanning continents, and gun-like weapons, their onslaught continued until there was no intelligent life left to challenge them, then they turned on themselves.
After pillaging the Earth alive, they turned on each other, killing each other in the name of politics. In their fight against each other, the Earth was getting more and more war torn and depleted of its natural recourses.
Inside this conflict, there was a small family, a son and a mother, their lives were the cataclysm that started the age of Elementals.
Ruan and Alda, the harbingers of the Elemental people, they lived in a tiny house in the middle of a corn field, as a machine outside chops the corn that grows in seconds, Alda and Ruan are talking about the news, how the great unified nation of Anchavia was cribbling.
Looking at the flying screen in the living room, Alda says, "Rebel groups from the west have set a foothold in Stronghaven, they took over a major part of the industry the builds technology, this could be bad for Anchavia..." Alda sets down a plate of food on the table, and pushes it towards Ruan, a teenage boy with brown eyes.
Ruan rolls his eyes, "C'mon mother, Anchavia is huge, like it will fall apart due to a rebel group, that like saying one person can take down an entire empire." Alda walks to the couch and looks down, then turns her head towards Ruan, her blond straight hair flows to the side as she says, "I'm just afraid that this could turn into something bigger, don't you think?
Ruan finishes his food, smiles, stands up, and approaches his mom and hugs her, "It's gonna be okay, Anchavia is preparing an attack right now, everything will be alright."
Ruan walks away, "Goodnight' Ma!"
Alda looks conflicted, "Night'..."
Alda walks outside, she sits on a stump, a small flower blooms next to her, Alda puts her hands together, "Oh Earth, please bless us, I know you can hear...you've made me live long, you can pull miracles, please." Alda looks up at the sky, "Please."
Alda stands up, she walks towards the door, she walks inside and closes the door.
Miles away, through mountains and rivers, smoke fills the air, fire spreads on the land.
The rebels are coming.
