Six colors danced across the vast emptiness of space in search of a place to call "home". These creatures were the very first beings, Gods and Goddesses of the elements. They were born of cosmic energies and lived their lives without purpose. Elbryant the God of Light, Helldunn the God of Darkness, Jenkin the Goddess of Fire, Ramirett the God of Water, Murraya the Goddess of Air, and Hollan the Goddess of Earth. After centuries of wandering the cosmos, mastering the magical energies within them, they breathed other lifeforms into existence. Elbyant created the Angels to rule Heavens whilst Helldunn created the Demons to control the Underworlds. Jenkin created the Dragons, rulers of the sky. Ramirett made Leviathans to roam the Seas. Murraya and Hollan created the Elves and Giants to live on the Continents of the world they named Eccarea. The Six lived in harmony for centuries before leaving their beloved creations to make a new creation. Built in the image of the Gods and Goddess, capable of using all six elements, Humans. Having free will and being able to roam the world of Eccarea without fear. Having a race that resembled the Gods and Goddesses so clearly, they lived among the humans. Adapting to their lifestyles, grasping the emotions their mortal counterparts felt. Millennia went by before the Deities noticed, and the world as they knew it had created had forgotten about them. Humans believed that the Primordial creatures of Eccarea were the originators of magic, learning the ways from them and passing their teachings down. Unlike the humans, the Original creatures had long life spans and profound knowledge on the element they were born into. Without fear of being betrayed by the humans, the Original creatures trusted and loved the humans. Their thirst for knowledge was boundless, always finding was to adapt and change the magic to improve their lives. The creatures had no intention of claiming to be the originators of magic, because they knew the true glory of their creators. But the world moved fast, and the knowledge was passed down and changed to meet the needs of humans. Having been relieved of an unknown burden, the Gods and Goddesses decided to continue living among the humans, without any worry or responsibility.
