The story of Foleria can be simplified into one being's  thought, search, and wish to complete one's existence

-----

At first there was only darkness, then came into existence a spark of light

The world was made by one God named Foleria that came into embodiment from the concept of beginnings, she was but light that shined within the vast expanse of never-ending darkness

She was just there, all alone with only her thoughts to accompany her

A thought the came to her

'Why am I here?'

When Foleria thought of that,  she felt that her existence contained no meaning, she just existed into the plane of reality, pointlessly flickering all alone among the darkness

She had contemplated that if she was the embodiment of beginnings, then what would the reason for why she is for who she is. 

She had come into conclusion that she was not complete, a being with her half missing

'If am beginning, then I must have an end' she thought

'And for that to come true, there must be the presence of "Change" '

So she split herself into different concepts that would make up a world that will ultimately fulfill her wish , It was the start that brought upon change into her existence thus came her children into this world, Foleria

The concept of time- Tempus

The concept of space- Raum

The concept of nature- Grena

The concept of destiny- Meru

The concept of Language- Lau

The concept of energy- Aurelio

The concept of life- Vita

The concept of death- Morte

And other many Gods

Together they worked as one to create and build Foleria into a place where life can blossom and change can be found

Time passed and the inhabitants started to build civilizations and multiply in this world, all was at balance, slowly moving towards Foleria's wish for an end until one day, Aurelio, the concept of energy which was called Arcane, realized that the end his mother was searching for, could not be found if Arcane, that filled the world life continued to exist.

'How will Foleria meets it's end if Arcane continues to exist within this world?' Aurelio thought

'No matter how many times the world is destroyed or damaged by the passing of time, with Arcane, it will continue to heal and revert back to what it was'

'So what is my purpose, why was I "born"? Why is Arcane, why am I...here?'

'How will I fullfill Mother's wish for an End if I myself is the one stopping "true change", I-I must correct this flaw'

Aurelio then went on to argue with his siblings to replace Arcane energy to fulfill his mother's wish.

"Why!? why wont all you agree that arcane is a flaw, that I am flawed!, It must be replace to meet this Worl's end"

"Dear brother, do you not understand what replacing arcane energy means?" Tempus said

"Aurelio, once you replace arcane energy, the you right now will cease to exist" he added

"In addition, once arcane energy is gone, Foleria will die, that is not the kind of "end" that Mother wished for"

"Please understand Aurelio, we dont want to lose the only "family" we have, dont be blinded what Mother originally wanted, look inside yourself, for we are all fragments of Foleria so you must be aware of what we mean" added another of Aurelio's sibling

"So we beg of you, please listen to us"

".....No....Foleria... must meet its desired 'end' and if my own family cant see that, then Ill do it myself!"

"Aurelio! wait!"

Aurelio then proceeded to wage war against his siblings as he made a new type of energy that made the land where it was made instantly devoid of life

He thought that he could do more and be more compared to his sibling that have settled to the status quo, never changing which he believed goes against their mother's wishes for the end.

He embodied energy or more so, arcane which was ever present and ever flowing in Foleria, so he made a new energy which essentially disrupts the balance within world

It was disruptive and unpredictible, it was called Cabal, this energy ate away arcane energy, if Arcane maintained life and the world itself then Cabal ate away life and will lead to its destruction

It was chaos, monsters were born from animals being exposed to Cabal, as it continued to spread throughout Foleria, destroying the lands, seas and the air , making it unsuitable for any life to form.

Aurelio believed that if every land was corrupted with Cabal then all the powers of his sibling will be his for the taking as he ate the World

The Gods held a meeting and had come into an agreement to seal away their own brother. 

They've decided to summon otherworlders to defeat Aurelio as they knew that the inhabitants of this world would not be able to encompass the power to purify Cabal energy 

They needed a being with a blank slate to fill it with the blessing, they made it so that the presence of champions will purify Cabal once they use the blessing.

As soon as they were summoned, each God gave the otherworlders the blessing of purification as they've also found out the otherworlders housing different abilities as they were exposed to their powers, some had their bodies amplified or changed, some also had their minds also changed, some had powers that were closely connected to the Gods and some developed abilities outside of the Gods authority

It made them a powerhouse, a beacon of hope, Champion as they were called by the people, they fought the armies of Aurelio, as the Folerians rallied alongside them

Aurelio soon found himself losing the war, he became aware of the "champions" summoned by his siblings, he figured that if he has a fraction of his siblings powers, then he could create his own champions but only altered to strengthen the spread of Cabal and his army

And so his attempt succeded, beings of monstrous origins started to appear in Forelia, wielding the same power or greater than the champions as they were feared as "Altereds" by the Folerians

It was devastation, Kingdoms fell and  so many perished along with the champions but alas, Aurelio's army of monsters and Altereds were defeated, he along with his remaining army was sealed within the void, a space created to seal Cabal from leaking

The few remaining champions wondered why the Gods did not let them kill Aurelio, only to seal him within the void

They answered

"If Aurelio died then both arcane energy and Cabal would dissaper in this World, we havent found a way to steal Aurelios authority within this World because he was the one in control of energy"

"But what about the Altered, we were sure we destroyed them"

"Altereds are beings like you champions, they come from other worlds but after being changed by Cabal energy, their beings essentially became that of Cabal, Aurelio has their souls and in turn their abilities and he can easily bestow this power again to their spawns they left behind"

"Someday, the seal will break and we will once again need the help of champions, and when that time comes, we will have to erase this evil once and for all"

After that, peace once again reigned on Foleria and tales and legends of the summoned champions and the disaster brought by Aurelio were written down in the annals of history.

-------

"After that..." The King paused

"The rulers of Foleria was then given a stone by the Gods that would simultaneously break once one of them was shattered, which will transport them to a realm where they will discuss the summoning among themselves" the king recited

"This signifies that the seal has broken and champions must called upon again, However this time, the rulers will choose who will defend their land as compared to last time where all the champions were scattered randomly all over the place resulting to kingdoms being destroyed rapidly"

"Mistakes were made and now this time we are fully prepared"

"And that is why you were summoned" The king then looked at the three champions

'Dude! we just wanted to know why we were summoned and then you gave us a whole history lesson!' thought Colt as he stared mindlessly at the darkening skies outside
