Ch.1 Shocking Sensation

Ashclea Kingdom, Capital City of Ashclea

[King Danlius Ashclea's POV]

While I was reading the reports about Great Scar Mountain Range when suddenly... *SMACK*

Ramsey: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Danlius: "RAMSEY FASKON!!!"

Shocked by my voice, my dear old friend Ramsey instantly stood at attention.

Danlius: "One simply does not charge straight into the King's study chamber. Especially the Minister of Defense himself! Now speak."

Ramsey: "The Sacred Land is shaking!"

I throw him a shocked look as he recounts on what he was told by the Earth Guardians. In summary, the sacred stone stele started glowing in a earthen colour and causing the earth to quake. Even the sky area of Misty Peak Mountain is beginning to be filled with lightning. The Earth Guardians themselves felt their Origin quiver heavily in response. At the very least it explains the tremor I felt in my own Origin. Good thing I sent some people to check.

Danlius: "Minister Ramsey. Immediately inform the Guardians to begin a full-scale investigation and send word to inform all the cities to report back to see if there is weird situations going on."

Ramsey: "Understood!"

*Sigh* I hope calamities won't appear all of a sudden.

Great West Lake

[Water Spirit, Urulia]

A strong shocking sensation passed through me as the water essence within the lake is becoming restless and cold.

What is happening? Is it a foreshadow of a calamity? Or is someone or something trying to bend reality and existence?

I went to the bottom of the lake to check on the Ancient Submerged Ice and saw it reacting. Fearing the worst, I immediately ask lords of the forest through spiritual communication. After a while, the response from the lords saying they don't know either. Even the Verdant Monarch itself doesn't know.

While looking up at Misty Peak as it roil and toil with a myriad of lightning on top, I can't help but feel worried.

Suresh Lava Desert

Stolen story; please report.

Volcanic ash and bits of lava from lava pools flew everywhere as powerful and disorderly gales picked them up. Within Mount Suresh a magma chamber was shaking. Soon a scaly head revealed itself. It is the head of the Serpentine(*) Monarch, Severius. It closed its eyes as it sensed the wind and fire essences are running amok. soon it opened its eyes and left its personal chamber and exited the mountain through the blowhole(**) and looked around with a amused expression. It stayed on top of the mountain  and watched the unceasing storm while being fascinated.

Severius: Even the Desert Zephyr is reacting. I cannot wait to see what will happen to this world after this is over. But until then...

Severius returned to his personal magma chamber, submerged itself then checked on the Golden Geocentric Fire and returned to its slumber.

Black-White Union, Grand Hall

[Pope Samuel Graham's POV]

As I enjoyed tea with the Supreme Priest, James Helsing, in the gardens I felt a jolt in my Origin. My pupils constricted and when I saw James' face I knew it happened to him too.

James: "I am sorry but I need to leave for some important matter."

Samuel: "As do I."

We immediately leave our tea and James return to the Dark Temple while I return to the Church of Holy Light. I then walked into the inner sanctuary and check on the church's divine artifact, the Torch of Holy Light. When I opened the door, bright light fills my vision and burning my eyes.

WHY?! Why does the Holy Light burn?!

Confusion and shock washes through me while I shut the door with haste. The Holy Light is an Odd Element which heals not burn. So why would it burn? I wait for my eyes to recover and then assembled the cardinals for an emergency meeting.

(*) I haven't decided if the Monarch should be a snake or dragon

(**) Don't know what it's called so it's going to be a blowhole for now

Author's Notes: Well I finally got a basic idea for the world and also this is an impromptu story therefore it doesn't have a set schedule.
