WHOAH! There's a hundred people reading my story consistently? And they like it too?! Thank you all so much for this! it really means a lot to me that there's people out here who enjoy my imagination and love of Badass, O.P. Dragons! Just for you all, I'll stay up as long as I can tonight and tomorrow to write out Chapter Nine as well! I'll even get you all boxes of imaginary cookies! (Gluten free chocolate chip cookies)
Besides the cookies and chapter coming out about 22 hours from now, I thought I'd compile the Q+A plus general information on the races and world as it is known up until this point. So here it is!
Known World: Split into three realms: Underrealm, Lower Realm, and Spirit Realm. (Think of each realm as the same planet, but a different dimension. So slight differences, but overall very similar)
Under Realm: Realm of Ruin Affinity. Demons, Orcs, and Undead live in this realm.
Lower Realm: Home of Order and Chaos Affinities. Humans, Elves, Elementals, and many weak Spirit Beasts live here.
Spirit (Upper) Realm: Home of Creation Affinity. Strong Spirit Beasts and Dwarves live here.
Note: The races and affinities listed here are by no means restricted to those realms. The realms have been connected for eons, so intermingling has occurred. (That's why there are Chaotic and Order affinity Spirit Beasts in the Spirit Realm.) Also, the races here are not the only races. They are merely the most populous.
Spirit Beasts: A very peculiar race, they originate from the strong energies of the world. Evolving rapidly and growing to be very strong, depending of course on their exact race, they would quickly overwhelm the other races, if not for their killing of each other for power. Dragons are the Strongest known Species of Spirit Beast. Note: Spirit Beasts can breed with members of their own species, giving a tiny portion of their power to form an infant core.
Dwarves: A hardworking race of Traders and Crafters. They evolve slowly for a humanoid race and are not very numerous, but their technological advantage and powerful weapons keep them safe from harm.
Elves: An agile and flighty race of Scouts and Mages. Disposition, Evolution, and advantages differ between the subspecies. Be patient with elves, for they act on their own time.
Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
Humans: And adaptable and populous race. Humans can fit any role or affinity and evolve on drastically different paths from one another. Judge each human individually for as a race one can never tell.
Elementals: ???
Demons: ???
Orcs: ???
Undead: ???
Gods: There are 4 pantheons of Gods: one for each major affinity. Each pantheon has power only over it's affinity's realm. Gods effect each race differently, from merely blessing dwarves, to adopting and granting affinities to Dragons and other Strong Spirit Beasts.
Affinities: There are Four Affinities: Creation, Chaos, Order, Ruin
Creation: Beings with this affinity create. They improve themselves and the world and constantly seek out new wonders. They want the world to keep building and never end.
Order: Beings with this affinity preserve. They, above all else, want the world to remain the same. Unchanging.
Chaos: Beings with this affinity unbalance. They range from curious and inquisitive to unhinged and sick. They want to bring change to the world.
Ruin: Beings with this affinity destroy. They are fiercely protective, and destroy everything that stands in their way. They want the world to return to nothingness so that the cycle can begin anew.
Note: None of the affinities are good or evil. Order can brutally kill activists and stifle progress. Creation can build massive monstrosities like the Undead. Chaos can lead to improvement in life and health or wipe nations off the map of the world. Ruin can devour souls and dissolve worlds, but it can also recycle the material of creation: a necessary part of the World's cycle of mana. Also, Beings of each affinity don't' necessarily despise and kill each other on site. this only occurs in The Final Wars.
No, Terrus will not get a Human Body or Bond to A human for some time. He will eventually become a (spoiler). There will be a romance. And yes, he will get a massive Dragon Army and Dragon Queen. :D
