 Prologue

6th July 613 – The first 

The war of clans

It was another day of downright war.

The battle still went on from the previous night in the large corn field. All of the three clans were battling it out. The wizards used their staff to knock people out the way and cast deadly spells on them. The warriors, of both ninjas and knights, used katanas and other blades to slash all of the enemies in range. Meanwhile, the pirates were dueling others with long daggers and swords. 

In the centre of all action, a ninja, knight and wizard were fighting. The two warriors pulled their swords from their belts and menacingly pointed the sharp blades at the wizard. The sorcerer threw his staff aside and formed a fiery red orb in his old, wrinkled hands. When it grew to its fullest size, the wizard launched it at the warriors. The knight fell back and cried in agony. The ninja swung his sword straight at the orb. It sliced in half on impact and was consumed by the sword. It glowed the same scarlet and shook violently. The ninja ran forth and slashed at the wizard. Only a shallow cut was on his chest though. The wizard had healed it with his fingertips. 

The ninja then went for a second strike, only resulting in the same. The wizard used his telekinesis powers to push the ninja away, pulling the sword out of their hands, all at once. The wizard rose up, emitting a white aura. He turned the end of the katana to the ninja. With a swipe of his hand, the blade flew towards the ninja – who was still on the cloudland ground. Before it made impact, the ninja threw something black into the air and it burst open. Black smoke exploded into the air and the ninja was gone. Vanished into thin air. The knight stood up, looking disorientated. He pulled on the head piece to his armor and jumped on his unicorn. The knight and unicorn flew off into the distant clouds, looking back at the powerful wizard. Suddenly, from the back, another ninja sliced the wizards back. The wound closed shut once more and the wizard turned around. He seemed calm and started to make a ball with his hands. A sphere of red hot fire formed in his hands as the wizard shot it at the ninja. He was blasted back as far as the eye could see. With a whoosh of his cloak, the wizard vanished…

8th March 701

Nevaeh

The Battle of the East was much later in history. Powers had advanced by then and combat was much more fierce. The ninjas had branched off from the knights and became their own clan of the East. The knights became enemies to them after the split and went to invade them. Wizards kept to the West and the pirates stayed down near the South where the sea began. The pirates lived on the group of islands in the centre of Cloudland where they fought other pirates. This became another split; the pirates of the God Blackbird and the pirates of the God SeaPeg. 

When the knights and ninjas made peace in the year 701, a new empire rose called the United Clans of Cloudland. Soon after a major discovery was made. The wizards could bring people back from the dead. It was then discovered that another land existed. No matter how good one person was during their life, they would be sent to the underworld. The many clans agreed on the name Nevaeh for the place. This was because Nevaeh was the mirror opposite of heaven and Nevaeh definitely was the complete opposite of heaven. When people started to realise something strange, they became scared of the place. The wizards entered Nevaeh using magic whilst still alive and found clans living there. When they returned with the news, Nevaeh was sealed for good with powerful spells. The humans living there had turned to fire and were always burning. They needed to be contained. The wizards just had to hope for it as the spell would run out eventually.Until the present day, when the forcefield is cracked…
