This is Eon
This was supposed to be the 1st chapter of the story but after reading it the Team agree its not very good so it'll be edited and posted again. Sorry for the incovenience. Unhappily the "lame" version of the 1st chapter was read... T_T
This story will contain yiff (of course) but it'll not be the center of the story so if you're lookingfor lots of senseless yiff then i suggest you skip this one.
While this story deals with religion none of the REAL religions are on this story, some may seem similar but it was not meant to judge any of the REAL religions in any way, every religion here is a product of my team's imagination, if you feel offended by anything in this story the responsibility is yours and only yours, you were warned.

Elisyum: The Great Lords: Explanations
This not so small explanation is to explain most things considered of common knowledge on the world you may read it now or come back if you don't understand something on the story.
1st l'll give a little introduction on the world of Elisyum:
This is a world where there are 4 main races and many gods and religions, some ancient some new... this is a very big planet and has lots of places and different continents, the timeline is 2450 A.S (After Saint Mihael).
The main races are: the dragons, the furs, the humans and the winged.
Dragons: wielders of powerful control over their massive "Aura" (explained later on) and feared by most races the dragons were hunted to the brink of extiction so seeing a dragon is very rare, they're a proud and respectful race that rarely mix thenselves with other races, but live in peace, they are very caring about the nature, and have large lifespam (about 160 years).
In this world they're mammals, have 5 fingers on their "hands" (lnstead of using the term paws l'll use hand and foot because since there are normal animals in this world refering to their hands as paws would be taken as an insult) and 3 on their feet.
Their massive "aura" allows them to use ancient magic referred to as "Ancestral Magic".
Main city: Lufia
Furs: your common anthro, their species vary since the smallest mouse to the biggest elephant, they posses great hearing, can smell really well and they don't have heat periods like the normal animals. Common description is that they have 5 fingers on their "hands" and 3 toes on their feet, some might or might not have claws, the felines maintaim the ability to retract
their claws the ones that don't have normally shave theirs to prevent them from being used, this is normally done with prisioners and slaves, but it is done on some other cultures too.
They live in harmony with nature even if sometimes they cut trees and landscape, their lifespam is a bit higher than a human's.
Their abilities with the "Aura" is for activating some very powerful skills that vary with their species.
Main city: Agrathor
Humans: they prefer to live in big industrial cities that they built and they dominate the most advanced technology, with hovering cars and floating cities, they use their "Aura" on machines they call "Psibots" to energyze them and its their main caracteristic.
Humans have little control over their "Auras" and need a conductor, they also use "Battle Armors", biomechanical armors that make up for their lack of strength on par with other races.
They don't care that much about nature but they don't want to destroy it either.
Main city: Overing
Winged: These are creatures commonly referred to as winglys, they're anthro birds many look like eagles, most of then are merchants.
Their main ability with the Aura is the foreseeing: enables them to see the future, such a process however cost too much Aura and normaly the seer faints while foreseeing, not all can see clearly into the future
They don't alter nature in any way and live nomad lives, very few winglys have settle down.
Main city: None
Aura: Aura is the power to control or influenciate your surroundings. also called magic by some.
The power: Aura has 5 levels:
1-Empower: the aura is directed to one self making the person stronger, faster, etc. every creature uses this type even if they're not aware of it.
2-Spell: the person has the ability to cast spells, sorcerers create their own spells as well as learn them, while wizards have to learn all their spells, this level is common. Elemental spells are also very common and normally self taught (yes even wizards).
3-Glyphs: this is also called Superior Magic, Glyphs are tatoos that grant great control over a certain element or thing it depends on the tatto. Few can use Glyphs and they can only be obtained, the way to obtain the Glyphs vary from person to person.
4-Summon: Grants the ability to summon creatures from other worlds. 1 in 1000 people can use this ability.
5-Release: This level can only be reached by "Avatars" (will be explained), the "Avatar" draws the full power of their god releasing a powerful attack. Usually after having so much power flow from their bodies, the avatar gets really tired and might faint.
Half-Imortals and Imortals: Imortals are gods, and gods don't have any influence over the world. To be able to influenciate the world they need to use an avatar, the avatar becomes a half-imortal that live much more than normal. Ex: If a mortal human lives till 80 a half-imortal human would live 8000 years aging very little in the middle years.
Avatars: When a god wishes to influenciate the world they choose an avatar, that can be anyone. The choosen Avatar, must agree or refuse, if he agrees a pact is made and the avatar becomes a half-imortal and gains great control over his/her Aura as well as a great amount of it. They normally become "Lords", but not all of them, and they comunicate with their gods in their dreams using visions, 1 god can posses only 1 avatar at a time
Lords: The greatest honor a warrior could have, its a title that refers to Lord Of Battle, meaning the person with this title is proficient with the use of mostly every weapon and has a very unique fighting style, there is a saying that says: "If a Lord is your enemy, Death awaits you".
Ancestral Magic: This is an very ancient type of magic passed down by some powerful dragon families, only dragons can control this magic, if it were considered a part of the aura it would be 4,5, being very powerful and very complicated the use of such spells (involves some chanting), it is usually used as a last resort.
The End of The World: Cutting the world in 2 there is a imense wall said to have been built to keep people from entering that part of the world. many humans tried to reach the other side but were killed in the attempt by the numerous defenses that consist the wall, some believe that behind it lies a paradise and the barrier was built to keep sinners out, some believe its where the souls of the dead wander and the wall was built to hold then in.
Saint Mihael: A city where the 5th main race lived, this city was were many people went to be purified and confess their sins to the ancient gods, the main race that lived here was the Keaton, this city was mysteriously destroyed by a huge explosion, after this people started to feel hate rather than love for each other, very few were capable of loving.
Keaton: The extinct 5th race, said to have a connection with the Spirits of the world, they were mystical people that were said to have the ability to see and purify the soul of people, their existance in the world however, remains a myth.

After this long, boring explanation the actual Prelude:
It is year 2450 A.S. people's hate towards one another was growing and conflicts were becoming constant, this is a period of Cold War, the breeze before the storm, everyone knows it and is preparing for a big war.
However little do they know about the "Ancient War"... the war of evil vs good... the balance is threatened... evil is consuming the good, unless something happens to change this, the world is fated to be destroyed.
In a alternative plane a meeting is being held, the ancient gods discuss this loss of balance.
"True, I agree Yirma something must be done."
"But you all must understand that such a great move requires powerful soldier, powerful avatars."
"Yes, only 14 of us currently have and avatar... many of ours' were killed."
Suddenly one of then raises.
"Aren't you forgetting something?"
"What?" asked all of then.
"I found my new avatar, and she's perfect to be my avatar... I'm afraid that she's currently paralyzed thou"
"So you have choosen of avatar after 10000 years, Phoenix... we must hurry and get her then..."
"Wait! i didn't say she has already agreed."
"So while it is a good thing that you have choosen an avatar it is still uncertain if she'll agree... hmmm... it IS important that we check her, one can never have too many allies and in such dire time all help is needed."
"But we can't send too many avatars that would weaken our position in the struggle against evil!"
Another god suddenly rises and says.
"My avatar will go."
"yours Khai? but yours is not even a lord! I doubt he would be able to defend himself from the danger and specially protect another candidate! besides he is surrounded by darkness... I believe it'll not be too long before he falls to evil."
"I believe in him! he may be surrounded by darkness, but he is still bearer of a good heart!"
"very well then Khai. yours may go but if he fails you will be outcast from the Circle!"
Khai smiled and replied.
"as you wish."
