The sacred truce(backstory)

Chapter one 

This is not earth, to be more frank we do not know a planet called earth.Our planet Tibetheria is a massive ecosystem that coexists among many other planets.It all started from our very ancestral past when nature and humankind made one of a kind deal.At first Us humans were very selfish, not that we aren’t now ,its just that at those time we did what we needed to in order to live but we did not care about other things.The tribe of lost voices (the very first human civilization )could not care less about nature.They polluted the waters ,cut uncountable amounts of trees and therefore the ecosystem was disturbed.The forest became more and more smaller.

The  Myths(all commonly known as monsters at those times)were mythical creatures that were spoken of in human stories , they were as intelligent as men and were the pinpoint ,the leaders and guardians of nature .The myths could be called a separate kind who lived in the forests, although very different all myths shared the same goal.The myths turned to the big six.The big six were the main leaders of the myths.Each wise myth of the big six were very powerful and each hold a part of the land as their ruling domain.They consisted of Dragon,Dryad,naiad,Sylph,Harphy and Sphinx)The big six very angry gathered together to decide what to do to bring harmony to these lands like the old days.The myths finally fed up of humans decided to confront them in a one on one talk.

One night under the full moon all the myths gathered in front of the village where the Tribe Of Lost Voices Lived.They big six went forth to the gathered scared human crowd and announced to the humans ‘we the myths want you all humans to stop destroying nature   that we Myths work so hard Build and maintain.’The terrified humans were dumbfounded .They all were both amazed and scared to learn that the myths could talk in human language.The village head Jayfeather ,known to be very wise went forth to the myths and courageously said to them, “we humans are doing all we need to live a comfortable life”. The both sides argued for long and finally they declared war against one another.Then for about 50 years straight they killed each other’s kind mercilessly .Then very close to death Jayfeather the villages head announced to the myth leaders that he wanted to talk to them once more.Just like that the both kinds met each other under a full moons gaze one night and both decided on a truce.The big six and Jayfeather consulted each other in ways to coexist without harming each kind much.They finally decided on a way and announced it to their fellow kind.Many agreed with their decision ,but some held grudges against them for this truce.Finally with the approval of majority from both kinds they decided to proceed with the plans.

The leaders decided for both kinds to coexist and in order to achieve that goal they were to become one in the same kind..The myths were to live in a human host of their choosing ,and the humans in return would get theirs powers, would live their life maintaining and coexisting with nature as they would become part of it.This way both kind would accomplish their goal and live in harmony.Together on a autumn day the village people took all their kids who reached the age of 14 to the famous crystal lake.The humans then made a blood oath that they would maintain and coexist with nature and then Just as they decided the myths then took their soul and merged it with the water.(a soul contains of of the creatures powers)The Oath was made so that it was guaranteed that their goal would be accomplished and so that the humans wont be able to betray the myths .This oath bound all humans by blood and the consequence of breaking this oath was ones life.The humans kids of the age of 14 then stepped into the water and received their powers.The myths who chose them would decide to merge their souls with the humans and after wards when the humans life would end ,the myth soul would separate and return back to the water and wait to choose another host deserving of its powers.This thus marked the birth of the epics.
