Prologue

Night fell, and the hazy light of the three moons shined upon the lands beneath it, enshrined by the countless stars in space. The moons moved in sync, eternally linked at one point. Their light was the brightest in the night sky, yet what caught the eyes were the more alluring stars, scattered across the ether in different shades of white and blue.

The earth beneath the three moons had neither light nor color; however, it had what made it equally appealing. Seas of lava and seas of water. Mountains and endless abysses. Forests and deserts. Though the most conspicuous of all were the numerous living beings varying in forms and sizes. Winged lizards sleeping beneath the deserts, Greatwoods veiled by the forests, Truefins lurking in the deep seas. And the humans that invaded them all.

In time, might the envisioned sky stay the same? Might it shift and change? [Time will only tell.] But the earth beneath will reform and change, as every living being fights and conspires for their dreams; whether it be freedom, supremacy, revenge, or a peaceful life. [This, time already told.]

[And the cycle begins.]

In the beginning, those that dreamed of peace and to end the never-ending wars and chaos [The renegade], cursed many people; the kings that vied for supremacy, The strongmen that fought for more power, and the conspirators that lusted for splendor [The vainglorious}. And they loathed the plenty of things that caused chaos, such as immortality, power, and riches [The primal treasures].

Time after time they tried to reach for peace.

And the time came to pass, those who strived for peace realized the bitter truth, that their dream for peace caused war as well.

As long as any being dreamed, it would always struggle to fulfill it. Thus, in the end, those that wished and dreamed of peace cursed their wisdom and knowledge. Wisdom brought desires. And dreams always ended in the struggle for desires.

[The end is destruction, and the cycle rotates.]

When will the living beings on the earth below the three moons know?

The truth that their foretellers failed to comprehend.

The truth that the beings scattered across the stars discovered.

Power is the most essential thing to achieve their dreams.

Whether it is peace or war, whether it is balance or chaos, those with power are the ones to choose. Hence, sentients that learned of the truth walked their path of power, to struggle for their dreams and desires.
