Veilwalkers: Bonds Across Realms

I had a dream just like any other kid out there. Not the one a person experience when they sleep. I mean the one a person sees himself becoming in the future. I wanted to be an adventurer to experience the wonders of the world. I never expected that my first adventure will be the one to save people of my village from slavery.

It was part of my readiness for adventures that I kept a diary to write about the significant things that had happened during the day. I wanted the diary to be the foundation of the book they could have written about me. My dream never changed , I wanted to experience those bizarre adventures to the fullest. Even though I did not have the adventures the same way I expected, it was fine with me because that's what it means to dream.

Now listen to my Adventures " Year 1102 month 6 day 26. Dear Diary , today like all of my days , I walked around the town listening to all of the elders lying to the young one's " that was my favorite line to start the diary with.

I , KIGU, was living in VEILKIN, a village which was at the boarder of Ecade and Laspara. It was the lost village of Ecade which had been hidden for years. I was in love with the lush environment that Veilkin village had, it connected us all to nature, still I hated how rustic the village had been looking everyday for years. We were stuck as an outdated race while the outside world was improving. They had a reason to why we ended up being the lost race hiding from the world.

The story was told that 150 years before my time LUDIMOR , the founder of Veilkin village, set out to look for a place to hide himself and his family's as well as friends from the chaotic world. He chose to look for that place inside the forest that was only a habitat for wild animals. He had chose the forest because not many people could go deep into it. Also the forest was rumoured to contain ESSENTIUM, a mineral which had a high amount of energy than any other , and wanted to use it as a source of power for the village. Explorers had tried to find the mineral but we're afraid to continue deep into the forest since its trees grew taller and darker as you go into the forest. Many of the other explorers had choose to go into the forest solo not wanting to have to share the root with someone else if they were to find it.

Ludimor was a FLORAMANCER with the ability [ Sawing ] which allowed him to rapidly grow plants, making them flourish in a short amount of time and they did not worry about food security. His friend was a GEOMANCER, he had an ability [ Stone Wall ] the ability allowed him to create a barrier of stones and minerals around him and it was effective with protecting them against the forest's wild animals. Together they went deep into the two kilometers forest and to the point were they had found the mineral. If he had come alone like all of the other explorers he could have backed away after walking just a few meters, due to the xxxx sounds that were being produced in the forest, they were all trembling in fear but still carried on since they had each other to rely on.

The mineral's energy could boost ones Enerflux thus increasing the range for abilities. They constructed a plant barrier around a half kilometer radius to secure the place they had found with the ability [ Plant Wall ] that Ludimor's sister had. They had also increased the length and height of the mountain which was at the boarder to about 250 meters and 15 meters respectively with the ability [ Land Scaping ] that Ludimor's friend had.They stayed their for a while and Ludimor had a new idea in mind. He decided to sell some of the mineral outside inorder to use that money to develop the village. He brought with him people from outside who also wanted to escape the chaotic world.

Then one day Ludimor was gone from the village. It was said that he sacrificed himself inorder to build a barrier that was hard to pass through. It was different from the first barrier this one allowed access to only a person wearing one of the special rings that were found at the boundary of the forest and village. The trees were interactive that they opened a path to the person and if they pass through the path was closing again. He had used advanced magical technology which he ended up destroying himself in the process. He was the honored hero who sacrificed himself in order to extend the safety that existed in the village. I did not believe that Ludimor was a hero. He probably got tired of staying locked inside such a rusty area and run away. Leaving the people inside to fantasize any way they wanted to.

The people grew in number , so did their fear of going into the outside world as they called it. Myths and legends were passed down the generations to scare the younger generations whenever they talk about going outside. There were stories about Vampires, Dark elves , Werewolves among others which were said to exist outside. Apart from the village staying outdated and lacking innovation, the rise in population brought about the scarcity of resources.

The land got small that even with using magic to increase crop production, it was still not enough for everyone. There was a race for the resources. To increase land for growing crops , house were being built on top of each other and more than three families had to live in each of the houses. Yet the elderly claimed that it was better than what was outside. A fake prophecy was made inorder to inspire hope to the younger generation. It talked of a purple Dulcimortis who will come to the village and that will mean that the outside world is clear to go. That did not work to everyone, some groups of families moved out of the village to face the outside world for themselves.

The rumour that their was a place inside the forest with the mineral still existed in the outside world. With the development of technology, a lot of weapons were using the mineral, increasing the demand for it. Thus the safety of Veilkin village was hanging in danger since explorers would want to go into the forest to get the mineral and the fact that most of the scariest animals were harmless with how combat ready the humans had became against wild animals.
