Ep. 2: Understanding How The World Functions

"Enough babbling nonsense! Study hard younglings! For you are the glory and hope of Halderan! This city that supports all living beings! And you all students, are it's soon to be guardian!" Shouted the woman.

All students stood up and answered the woman;

"Yes ma'am! We will fight to protect Halderan City in the near future!"

The woman then answered them, "Very well! So I, Haneera Stormborne, will train you to become one of the most powerful fleet that's yet to conquer the Land of Zulin, and soon," she paused, and shouted again;

"The whole world of Zancrum!"

The students cheered for a while. Soon enough, Haneera stopped them and said,

"So today, the topic is about our own world, Zancrum."

The students listened.

"Elders say, A long time ago, our world was created by one god which is Valier. He ruled vast kingdoms in this world without its men knowing. Valier is a kind god. Giving fortune to anyone he sees to be worthy of that fortune. But his brother, Martiev, was the opposite. He was known to curse everyone who receives fortune from his good brother. That's why, Valier was seized by humans and beings that co-exists with our race. Valier was mad. He then attacks the palace of his mad brother. The fight took weeks and months before it finally finish. Martiev was defeated and has been banished inside the unknown lands. Valier tried to regain the trust of all creatures for years. Fortunately, Valier succeeded and made the world gain back its beauty. He also built the most glorious and the biggest kingdom at that time, Glory. But thousands of years has passed after that day, The Age of Martiev or also known as The Age of Decay stroke the land. Martiev's followers from the unknown lands attacked Zancrum, the world perished. Millions of Valier's followers were slaughtered, and Valier's kingdom fell. Then mysteriously, almost all of Martiev's followers were seen dead across the Megoradian Valley inside Valier's Kingdom, Glory. After the cruelty of the demonic beasts, survivors are now scattered all across the world, waiting for refuge from other neighboring surviving cities." Haneera said poetically.

"Teacher Haneera, How can our city help?" Asked a student.

Haneera smiled. She replied saying, "Good question Reinior." She inhales and breathes out then said, "Zancrum is a big world. Made up of 19 oceans, 23 continents, and also housing 12 known races namely, Humans, us that possesses knowledge about Accordia (Magic of Elements) and Strength. Then Seraphims, those who have eternal magic and is a specialist when it comes to granting wishes to any beings. Next are Atrocians, also known as Pyrionians, they are beings that is made out of flame. Known to inhabit the Nether, they specialize in forging, cooking, and especially, burning. Next, Valierians, from the god Valier, they were the main residents of Zancrum, it is also a mystery where they are good at, but better not mess with them. Next, Elves. Beings that is known across the world. Known for traveling all across seas and lands. They mostly have the best knowledge. Ternians, woodland creatures that lives in forests of the East and West. They guard the forests against underlings of the Abyssal King. They are experts when it comes to woodland techniques and magics, they also cure curses. So when Martiev cursed all beings, the Ternians were the busiest race. Guboruns, not literally a race, but that's what their beings are called. Guboruns consists of five different species namely, Orc, Goblin, Trolls, Giants, and Witches. They are known to destroy and attack other races for money and fun. They are naughty, ugly, vicious, disgusting, and stinky. Their main enemy are us, humans. Fighting for territories and population. Dark Elves, they are elves but not exactly elves. They inherited the face of the elves but not their attitude. Dark Elves are scary. Specialize in dark magic, dark chants, cults and many more dark things. Next are Dwarves. All of you know that our craftsman is a dwarf right?

"Yes ma'am!"

Answered the students.

‌"Yes. It is because just like the Atrocians, Dwarves are very trusted when it comes to forging. It is because the dwarves are always in war with the creatures of the mountain ranges. So, I can say that they also are really experts of war. Nymphs, same with the Ternians, are forest creatures. Some see them in ponds and lakes. They are creatures with magical abilities. Vigliods, they are half dwarf, and half human. They are like their dwarf ancestors, they are powerful and skilled in battle. And they inherited the solidified manpower of humans. Last are the fearless Herocs, half bird warriors that came from the mountains. They are the only ally of the Dwarven Kingdoms against the ferocious creatures of the mountain. Their leader are often described as "Falcon" or "Eagle" because of their incomparable strength to other Herocs. They are expert in assassinations, art of killing, transportation, and many more."

"That's a lot of races."

Said Pane.

"And those are just known creatures. Who knows how many there are unknown races are here?" Rigor said.

"So, how can we help Miss Haneera?"

Reinior said.

"If we can form an alliance with all of the good races, we can search for the other surviving cities in this world." Haneera replied.

Students nodded.

"Next topic is, Magic!"

Haneera shouted as she raise her hand and flames burst out of it.
