‘This is amazing…’ (Seth)
The being saw how the planet flourished, how new races came in to existence.
Celestials are born out of the light element, and demons are born out of the dark element. They are basically half spirits, for they are a pure manifestation of their element but it is still possible to physically harm them. Demons get more power by the more people get negative emotions and the celestials get stronger by the more people believe in them.
An example of evil: Slaughter of villages and leave a few survivors to spread the fear or rape someone to feed on their despair and helplessness.
An example of righteousness and good: slaying demons and providing food for the poor.
They are immortal but they average life expectancy is thousand years because they are constantly at war. (there are exceptions)
There are also daemons, they are often mistaken for demons since they kind of look like them sometimes but they aren’t necessarily evil. They are actually being created similarly to humans, but they store they magic in to different things by creating magic infestations like tails or horns.
Daemon have the same lifespan like the humans.
Humans and a lot of other races have magic cores instead of tails/ horns in their bodies and sometimes wings on their backs.
Elves used to be humans, but they made a contract with wind spirits, this made them physically less powerful but more agile, also they have longer lifespan than humans but had more trouble reproducing, since there are no more wind spirits it is not possible for a human to transform into an elf and they are only born through natural birth. Their pointed ears are a sign of to which wind clan they belonged. Longer ears can mean that they belong to another wind clan than elves with short ears.
Elves have an average lifespan of twenty-five thousand years. (excluding mages)
Snow elves are a sub species of elves. They have light attribute added to the wind attribute and have a whiter skin than normal elves/humans. They also sometimes have golden eyes and snow white hair that shows their connection to the light attribute.
Night elves are also a sub species of elves. They have the dark attribute added to the wind attribute and they also have a bit darker skin than normal elves/humans and they sometimes also have red eye and black hair that shows their connection to the dark attribute.
Elves get a different skin color when they have a dark/ light attribute because the wind element amplifies their physical changes but nobody is certain why.
Only humans and elves have a different physical look with light/ dark element because most of them have the wind attribute even when it is just a small portion. Why many races do not have subspecies like the elves is because they do not physically change like the elves do.
The humans do not have subspecies because they do not find the change in appearance big enough to make them a subspecies.
Dwarves are connected to earth spirits the same way as elves to wind spirits. Dwarves bodies are more powerful but less agile, also their lifespan is less compared to the elves. Their average lifespan is about a thousand years but in return for that they are more fertile than elves, but less fertile than humans since they even have a longer lifespan (not counting mages).
Beast-kin are a race that have the same lifespan as a human. But they have a stronger body and less magic capability. This is because they are made of fire spirits that linked them to animals and wanted to have a human form. Tails and ears are a sign that shows that they are beast-kin. Human form is a transformation. If they want, they can naturally transform back into the full animal body they have. But they are officially born in human form, that makes it possible to reproduce with another humanoid individual. They have the same lifespan and fertility as the humans.
Orcs are beings that are a combination of humans with a link to fire spirits. The orcs are two to three meter tall. They can reproduce with another humanoid species but it is not advised. The orcs have different kind of skin color. Orcs are not green colored with a pig face, as most humans believe, but are actually red skinned and look like humans with sharper teeth to eat meat. They often only eat meat, and the most are actually quite intelligent, even though they love fighting. Orcs do not have any magic capability, but as a compensation for that they have the strongest bodies of all the higher races.
The average lifespan of orcs is eighty years because they are the only beings that do not use life force. But against this they are grown in five years and will not age until they consume their life force which will happen at an average of eighty years. This happens because they do not consume life fore like other higher races, but burn their own.
Ilarimana's are beings that are connected to the water spirit. They almost look like humans except for that they have gills behind their ears and they also got flaps in their noses which can close the airway in the nose so that they automatically breath through their gills, if flaps are open they will automatically breath through their nose, and then their gills will be closed.
Also their skin is multiple tints of blue, like marine camouflage.

Most of them can stick water to their bodies and condense it into fins that can help them swim in the water. They can reproduce with other higher races because they are not egg laying beings. Their lifespan is the same as humans.
Goblins, let’s just say they are mistakes. They do not live long because they lifespan is at maximum thirty years but they breed almost like rabbits. They are just you would expect. Small, ugly, green and have the intelligence of a brick. There are male and female goblins, but they also rape women of other races because the offspring are born better through the higher race and often more powerful than an average goblin or let themselves be impregnated by an individual of another higher race. (they still are dumb as bricks.)
Monsters. They are animals that learned to absorb life force which mutated their bodies and made their instincts more ferocious. Which is why they are always considered hostile and most of the time they do look like the animal they came from but bigger, stronger, faster etc.
But there are also a few exceptions.
Like dragons which are sentient beings. They live often in seclusion and do only react to violence brought to them. They can be connected to each element but it is always one element they are connected with the most. The lifespan of the monsters varies a lot.
Humans are beings that are made of all four elements and may later develop light/ dark elements.
Humans, I do not have to explain how they look. Their average lifespan is around 200 years (because of the life force). But mages can live longer because they absorb more life force than a normal human could (this also counts for other higher races except orcs (Goblins are not considered a higher race because they are dumb as a brick. Though some believe they are.))
There are exceptions for some individuals age like some humans that become half celestial. They do age even slower which grants them, depending on their affinity and connection the extra lifespan.
Karutaijani is are race that does have bad magical capability. They have the same height as dwarves, but do look more human than them. Like their females have a bigger waist and a more feminine voice, and you can distinguish a male from a female much easier. Because of their bad magical capability and affinity, they started to use science to survive. Their lifespan varies a lot because of the scientific changes to their bodies like injecting serums against plague’s, sexual diseases or artificial strengthening of bones and muscles.
Golems and other kinds of beings made purely out of one element are one of the first spirit manifestations ever. But these are all failed manifestations. Since it was a successful attempt to get an immortal physical body but they lost their sentience in the progress. Only basic instincts survived, that is why they protect themselves and their territory if attacked.
‘All those races, on Terra… I never thought something like that was even possible…’(Seth)
‘Look at it this way, this Terra you are talking about expanded itself because of the life force, so now it is 3 times bigger than it was in the beginning. So it is no surprise when life force enters a world that some unknown phenomena start to happen.’ (Daniel)
‘I see…’(Seth)
The two beings that stood there in space and watched Terra change with each moment were amazed by how it happened in such a fast pace.
Seth, although amazed concentrated again on the planet, and this time he tried to see if there were rules bound to magic. And he was even more amazed that there were consequences.
If someone uses to much life force, they will burn they own life force which will make them rapidly older.
That is because every being stores life force in their cores, so if a human that is a hundred years old uses an extreme amount of life force to use it to strengthen their magical capabilities they will shorten their life span which can result in death if they do not start absorbing more life force in the surroundings.
It is often considered a forbidden technique and many do not know about it.
If someone uses to much magic he will get mental and physical fatigue, which means he gets headaches, fainting, blood nose, paler skin. Sometimes the veins in the eyeballs pop which blinds the magic user till they have rested properly, so it is not advised to use to much magic in hostile territory. Permanent damages also can occur. Like that their brain will die.
It is possible to use too much magic but still keep a limit to it so that you will not have permanent damage. It is also possible to expand the limit of your magical capacity if you train properly.
It will only give you the ability to cast more spells, but it will not make your compatibility clearer with the attributes.
‘It seems that there are 10 continents on this Terra of yours.’(Daniel)
‘There were only seven when I was alive. Daniel, is it possible for us to change something from here or can we just watch?’(Seth)
‘I am thinking about it, but it seems that for now we can only look at that planet. And did you also thought it strange that everything happened so fast? I mean, continents don’t appear out of nowhere…’(Daniel)
‘Hmm… so time is running different here?’(Seth)
‘That is also a possibility. I on the other hand have a theory that I think is more accurate.’(Daniel)
‘Enlighten me.’(Seth)
‘What if we just woke up, and we were asleep for makers know how long. And when we just woke up we could see the past of the planet to the present. I am excluding the memory of the beginning. And now we are floating here doing nothing but staring.’(Daniel)
‘That also can be possible…’(Seth)
‘And I also think that I found a possibility to escape from this.’(Daniel)
‘Well, what are you waiting for. Tell me.’(Seth)
‘You still remember how the spirits manifested themselves? I think that we can do it to, but we will be babies when we do it. So we should manifest ourselves somewhere safe. There is probably also the possibility to manifest yourself in a later stage of life, like in a body of a 20-year-old.’(Daniel)
‘Ha, manifest ourselves somewhere safe. You know there is no place that is truly safe right? I was a soldier all my life, so I know that.’(Seth)
‘you may be right… Well I do not care about that; I just want to get out of this fucking place.’(Daniel)
‘So, what do we need to do to manifest ourselves?’(Seth)
‘I prefer to call it reincarnation. We just have to put ourselves in the seed of the man while the man and a woman are having sex. I know, it sounds disturbing, but it’s the best way to get back. There is also another possibility, and that is to create your body by using your life force. But our life force is not that big now, or at least not clean enough to make a full adult body. So when you do that you will be a child, or at best a teenager.’(Daniel)
‘So it is either a safe start or a good starting position…’(Seth)
‘Stop thinking like a soldier, and think like a human being. You are so cold sometimes that it even amazes me sometimes.’(Daniel)
‘I was a soldier all my life, so I think different then a normal person.’(Seth)
‘Dick.’ (Daniel)
‘And also, I taught you the ability to do so. Just think about how to manifest and you will get all the information you need to do it in your brain.’(Daniel)
‘…Well then, I think I will go ahead and get myself a new life. What about you?’(Daniel)
‘Hmmm… I think I will just make my own body in some faraway place, so that I may train my new body in peace.’(Seth)
‘Well then, I will just reincarnate as some bastard child, may be a funny start of life, don’t you think so?’(Daniel)
‘Why the hell do you want to start as a bastard child? You will already start with a lot of enemies.’(Seth)
‘But it’s still a lot of fun. I mean, it IS better than to be born as some prodigal, prophetical son that saves the whole planet of evil. You and I both know well that there is no pure good world. There is always evil where sentient beings live, sometimes small and sometimes big. I just want to have a fun life for once.’(Daniel)
‘You really think strange…’(Seth)
‘Talk about yourself. In the meantime, I am going ahead and get myself a new life! Good luck, brother.’(Daniel)
‘See you back on Terra, Daniel.’(Seth)
The two beings that were staring at the planet started to float towards the planet. The speed at which they closed in on the planet increased, and they started descending.
‘Brother, see you soon. And if not soon then see you later!’(Daniel)
One of the spirits increased the speed at which it flew towards the planet, and disappeared.
‘I hope that Daniel really does not reincarnate as some bastard child… Where should I manifest? There is a forest there…’
Seth started flying towards a big forest further ahead, and disappeared soon in the greenery of the forest.
‘Now then, let’s hope that I do not materialize in front of hostiles.’
