The emperor Truei

The humans of the centre of the land created a monarchy and even sorting themselves into groups, thus the great elemental order came. All humans are adept in one particular element, be that fire, water, earth, air, ice, metal, thunder, or crystal. Many of the humans could sense the ability of a child and when they were born the child was sent to which ever element they were blessed with. This split up many families; however it gave many who could not have children the ability to have them. Many rebelled but the emperor swept away these ways. How ever now and then a child was born with no ability, they were cast to the desert to die. A child by the name of Truei was one of these children, one with no ability. And so was cast to the desert and given the name Unborn to prove his inexistence. However he was saved by a family and hidden. At the time however keeping a child with no abilities was capital punishment, and word got to the authorities and at the age of eleven they attacked his protectors. He fled once more in to the desert trying to survive how ever he could. He met several other people who had been rejected and sent to the desert. A large man who had stolen food for his family, a child who had run away from his allotted element, and the once proud leader of the rebellion of the elements. Truei together with these people fought against the emperor. Falling in love on the way with a girl named Alexia. She was the daughter of a wealthy trader and her father would have never accepted Truei. They eloped and had a child who they named Guildtha. Finally the group created a small army and planed to attack the castle. They attacked strategically, attacking the weak areas of the castle but in the fight not only were all of Truei’s original friends killed, but so was Alexia. Not knowing about this Truei struck down the king and took up the crown, immediately disbanding the tribes. But upon learning that the one he loved had died he hid Guildtha away with Alexia’s parents. Truei took over the kingdom and created peace within his continent, but planed to attack both east and west. In the care of his father in law Guildtha grew up believing Truei to be his uncle. Firstly Truei took on the savage east and after defeating them, came into possession of a strange sword that had the ability to cut any material. He also heard of the great blade that had been summoned in the west. He then locked himself in his room for a month. And after coming out said that he had trailed far from this place to many other places. Worlds filled with beasts and humans made of flames and ordered that the finest scientist research into immortality. After this he was never seen without the blade which he now knew to be called the Lisis, and a strange man appeared amongst the scientists who knew nothing about science but everything about sowing and necromancy. The priests increasingly worried about they way Truei was acting plead for him to stop the madness but instead he disbanded the religion and locked himself away. Days later another man hidden beneath large hooded cloak stained with blood. Who Truei immediately greeted and took to his study. The man was an ex shaman and summoner who promised Truei immortality. But instead killed him using the blade and fleeing. At this point all of the experiments that Truei was interested in were disbanded, the original church was put back together and in time Guildtha’s true heritage was found and he became the new emperor aged 18. Soon after being given the Lisis his behaviour change and he became interested in much of his late fathers work. His personality change completely becoming more and more like his fathers, and like his father never leaving the side of the strange blade. The priest became worried that Guildtha would also disband them and tried to take the blade away from him believing that it was what had made both him and his father so mad. But Guildtha killed the assassins they sent. After several years of searching they found the shaman who had originally killed Truei, but instead of finding that he had killed Truei they found that he had truly granted Truei immortality, by bonding his soul to the blade. And that whoever held the sword would become its puppet. Knowing this they went back to the castle and managed to somehow separate Guildtha from the blade. But Truei drew on some unholy strength to create his own form and to try and kill the priest before they sealed him within the blade. However Guildtha fought him and defended the priest, but his brave actions meant that he too was sealed within the blade. The blade was then hidden in a great underground shrine that was hidden in the eastern desert on the third most floor.
