Ages ago, the world of Kosmos was brought into being by The Creators. The planet was barren, existing only as a spherical desert; The Creators were not amused. One of The Creators comed her fingers gently over the surface of Kosmos, producing vegetation and other such phenomenons. Another plunged his fingers down into the planet, finding the core and let magma bleed from his fingertips. The next Creator dabbed his massive palms over the still wastelandish areas, and created vast bodies of water. Finally, the next Creator held her hands before the planet, creating an atmosphere. The Creators were momentarily pleased, but disaster soon struck.
The four different elemental properties began to collide, and hot magma burst from the grounds, burning through the forestation in an instant. The magma spread over the waters, cooling and hardening over them. The Creators frowned upon the failed experiment, and began a new. They each created the exact same environment, the one that had just destroyed itself inside-out, and as soon as it was done, they created life.
There was such a variety of species roaming Kosmos, and it warmed the hearts of The Creaotrs. The purpose of these living, breathing beings was key to holding the worldtogether. The Creator that made the core of the planet had also made a patch of sandy desert amongst the watery and vegetated world, and found a fasinating being walking there. It was what The Creators called a Reptilian; it had the movement of a human, but it was covered in scales and spikes, and from its long snout were fangs. The Creator of the Desert came down to the world, and placed his hand over the brute's chest, forcing the magma into its heart. The creature did not die, and he seemed entirely unaffected. However, the next breath that it exhaled, erupted into flame.
The Creator that made the bodies of water made himself small and plummeted into the waters that he created. There, he found another mysterious creature, but one that possessed more humanly qualities. Aside from its webbed hands and feet, blue skin, and piercing green eyes, it looked like a man. The Creator placed his hand over the being's chest, and shot a jet of water into his heart.
The forest-maker also shrunk herself down and walked among the area that she had created. Within the enormous trees, she found a creature as well. It was the most human of all the creations seen thus-far; the only thing different were the ears, which were pointed and much longer than those of a human. The Creator placed her hand over the chest of the being, and vines wrapped around the heart.
Finally, The Creator of the atmosphere dropped down to the planet, herself. There, she found a creature that was at least a head shorter than the rest. The being possessed a beautiful pair of colourful wings and pale blue eyes. Like the previous creature, this one, too, had long and pointed ears. The Creator placed her hand gently over the little chest, and a gust of wind struck the heart.
The Reptilian, Photia; the Eizero, Nero; the Elf, Ge; the Nymph, Aeras. These four creatures were dubbed the First Elementalists. The reason behind the elements residing in their hearts was a means of protection for the world. So long as the elements were safe, Kosmos would exist harmoniously. However, there seemed to be a problem in The Creators' plan.
The Four Elementalists were not immortal, and so they met an untimely end to a mysterious cause. This greatly upsetted The Creators, as they had made too broad of assumptions. With the Elementalists deceased, the world was cast into a temporary era of shadows, in which time, a demi-element was created. Against the will of The Creators, the new element chose an Elementalist among a creature deemed unworthy of such power by The Creators; Man. The newly erected Shadowmancer elongated the Shadow Era, and with such power at his command, his life was also lengthened.
The Creators remedied the siuation post-haste. They decided that, since none of the beings of their choosing had been by any stretch immortal, they would have to continue the choosing of their Elementalists. To ensure the longest possible reign, The Creators also elected the youngest candidates they could grasp, which were more than often infants.
Now, over the course of time, as the Elementalists matured, they would reveal themselves for what they were, and would develop the ability to manipulate their element for their selfish or selfless purposes only. In the current era, those of the Sky, Water, and Tree Cities have revealed themselves; the Fire, however, has not. if and when he does he will be hunted unless he is found by the other three Elementalist.
Elemental Cities and Guardians
The Elementalists are not simply chosen from any place in Kosmos; they are born and picked from the Elemental Cities. Thosi, the Desert City, is where the Elementalist of Fire is chosen. THE Gaurdian is a fox.
The Water City, Sharaes, is where the Water Elementalist is chosen. Being an underwater city, the entire area is contained within a protective bubble with tubes leading to islands located on the water's surface. The Guardian is a swan.
Aes is the Tree City. It is located in a dense forest, and the majority of shops, banks, houses, etcetra, are located in the treetops, hence the name, Tree City. This is the chosen place of the Earth Elementalist. The guardian is a wolf
The last city, the Sky City, is Eis. This city floats among the clouds on a hovering mountain top. It was erected in the sky by Aeras, the Ancient Elementalist of Air. Being so dangerously high up, there is no vegetation, and virtually no food. The inhabitants of this floating city, the nymphs, elves, and aviaks, therefore, must venture to the ground in order to retreive food. Certain elves have trained birds, such as falcons, to fly down and bring back things like fruits and berries. The guardian is a raven
These cities arose after the Ancient Elementalists were chosen. The four made sure the cities were built in order to please The Creators, and they did. The Creators are now able to choose the Elementalists depending on the city they come from.
