"My dear, if I'm sending this letter to you, it means that Principatus is not willing for you to come back. Whatever you do, please, stay as far as possible from here. It is not safe, neither for you nor your sister. This is my final order to you, as your queen, as your leader, as your mom."

...

For as long as I can remember, Principatus has always existed. It was here, in every form a living being could think of. No one knows what it is, but from the few legends that talk about it, it's something to be afraid of. Many view Principatus as an over-controlling power, and everyone seems to think that they are the reason magic exists.

Well, Principatus was present when the first sparks of sorcery appeared, but in no way was it the creator of that source of power.  On the contrary, Principatus envied the magic, because it didn't make their gods interested. They refused to believe that humans, mortals to be exact, could access magic. To stop the sparks from spreading, they created one type of magic.

Chaos Magic is unstable magic that can change certain characteristics of human magic. This chaotic energy is so dense that many magicians have died. Basically, in a few words, it's magic made for only the strongest of gods.

Afterward, a big war began, between the living creatures and the gods. Havock began, kingdoms were collapsing, and thousands of people and gods were dying. It was a literal bath of blood. 

Then, like all the good stories, a different God came. 

Beelzebub, the god of the Heavenly Principals, had just joined the battle with the army of angels. With her help, she had regained the peace that the mortals have been waiting for. She became their queen and fully protected her sentient beings. Her story, becoming an inspiration for everyone who knew her, was passed on from generation to generation.

However, no one suspected her to be also part of Principatus.

Most humans know that Earth exists in a solar system, composed of the Sun and its seven planets (eight if we count Pluto). However, it is just a mere illusion. While Mercury and her siblings do exist, their Sun is Principatus. It's just a bigger version of our Star that we can see from Earth.

Our solar system is far more different from that of humans. It's composed of, like I said, Principatus as its star, and five main planets with their natural satellites. The planets in question are Earth, Crystallia, Elementia, The Lost Lands, and Esmeray.

Earth is the planet of humans. The most known planet, but also one of the most isolated. Its people are not aware of the outside world, and ignore that magic exists. Let's just move on, they are not interesting.

Crystallia, also known as the Empire of Crystals, is the most advanced planet in the solar system. It's one of the oldest kingdoms to subsist to this day, as the Crystallian Empire has a lot of hidden history lost to time. The nation was also implicated in many conflicts that forged its history, at the cost of many lives. It had a mighty king, but he died of unknown causes. His oldest daughter was supposed to take over the throne, but she had disappeared so the cadet took control of the domain to ensure its safety.

Elementia is the main planet, because of her status of being the most populated planet. It also has many natural satellites, like Nati, Cordelia, and much more. Most clans that are very popular and powerful live on the planet. Even the Queen herself lives in her castle, located in the middle of Elementia's main city Bubbles (there are no continents, just cities, and villages). It's a rather young planet since it doesn't have much history to recall, however many mysteries are laying hidden in the depths of the Abyss.

The other two, the Lost Lands and Esmeray, will be left for another story.

As of now, we should probably get started.

They don't like it when we are late.
