(Note from the author: hi guys, welcome to the first episode of Astral soul system, tell me what you think and don't worry about the length of the chapter, this is more of an introduction and less of an actual chapter anyways. So Enjoy)

A day came when the world changed, when humanity was pushed to the brink of extinction. On that day a strange asteroid larger than any ever recorded crashed onto earth and somehow dug so deep that it neared the earth's molten core before it exploded . This resulted in a cataclysm that nearly completely eradicated all life on earth. The meteors explosion near the earth's core had nullified the planet's protective atmosphere, exposing it to the dangerous radiation of the sun and space itself and that was the final nail in the coffin for earth and it's inhabitants,at least it would have been if it wasn't for a new discovery, it turned out that the meteor had come as a vessel for a strange energy and when it exploded this energy had been injected into the earth's molten core which for some reason already possessed an astronomical amount of this energy and under the dire circumstances the earth in what seemed like an attempt to survive rapidly superheated it's molten core which then fused with the energy as well as the asteroid's remains. Once this was done the molten core seeped out and directly fused with the planet itself, terra forming the barren wasteland and infusing the earth with vitality that had been contained and accumulated within the core for millennia before the asteroid's arrival. This rebirth greatly transformed the earth, increasing it in both size and density to be five times that of Jupiter but for whatever reason not affecting its predetermined course around the sun as if on its own volition and restoring it to full health albeit permanently without it's atmosphere as the earth had fused with the core and now was the core. This lack of an atmosphere had revealed that the radiation from the sun and space itself was the same energy that was in the meteor , The radiation for some reason wasn't harmful to the planet or it's inhabitants but instead made them stronger and caused them to evolve , albeit through the course of centuries. It made creatures more powerful, each generation more so than the last, until mankind once again reached its natural limit as a species, only this time those limits could be broken with the help of the strange energy humans called aether.
In an unknown location which seemed to be a cave,a large translucent boulder was glowing with ethereal lights and a figure feminine figure could barely be made out inside of it. Her screams and howls of pain reverberated all around the cave walls as she yelled out in agony. This went on for an unknown period of time before "crack!" A large crack appeared on the cocoon like boulder before it seemingly exploded, throwing pieces of rock all over the place. As the dust settled a young girl around 14-16 years of age could be seen panting
"Huff. Finally, that took forever,i thought I'd never get out of that thing ,anyways evolution complete!,..... barely"
"You're getting more and more reckless "
The girl didn't bother turning around as she recognized the voice of her closest friend.
"That asteroid could have...."
"Oh would you relax,i handled it, and i completed my evolution safe and sound in case you cared, besides the humans will be kept occupied for at least another thousand years so we can finally have a breather so stop worrying and help me up "
As her friend was helping her up she suddenly remembered something important
"Oh yeah, how's my little project coming along,is it ready yet?"
