Lyx reading the book given by Bou "This is a vast planet called "Zwel" , so large that no one can reach all corners of it in their lifetime. The planet is home to seven world trees, and around each tree, one of the six nations was built. These trees are vital to life on the planet, as each one provides unique power that all species rely on. Every tree represents a god or goddess that the people pray to.
The Tree of Transportation – God Halo
The Tree of Memories – God Mnemonar
The Tree of Protection – God Halorion
The Tree of Destruction – God Deskarion
The Tree of Knowledge – God Veylos
The Tree of Fate – Goddess Nytheris
The Tree of Creation – Goddess Eluriah (Location unknown; its power and appearance remain a mystery)
Of the seven trees, six are known, and they fall into three main categories:
Part 1: Relay
The Tree of Transportation – God Halo: This tree allows for the movement of goods and information across great distances. People use it to send letters, while governments and guilds rely on it for trade.
The Tree of Memories – God Mnemonar: This tree helps the government track personal details, crimes, and world events. It serves as a living archive, storing the planet's history.
Part 2: Vanguard
The Tree of Protection – God Halorion: This tree's branches and liquids are used to create weapons and armor. It offers defense and shields for those in battle.
The Tree of Destruction – God Deskarion: This tree provides raw materials to forge weapons of great power. It's tied to destruction, offering offensive power for war.
Part 3: The Link
The Tree of Knowledge – God Veylos: This tree once held the secrets of the world and its nature. Those connected to it could understand the deepest truths. However, it was destroyed by a mysterious creature—a powerful being that caused the fall of the country built around this tree. The knowledge is now lost, and its stories have faded into rumors.
The Tree of Fate – Goddess Nytheris: This tree whispers the fates of individuals—who is bound to whom and sometimes even glimpses of the future. It's mysterious, with secrets known only to those who are connected.
The Hidden Tree of Creation
The Tree of Creation – Goddess Eluriah remains a mystery. No one knows where it is or what it looks like, but it's said to hold unimaginable power. Many seek it, but its location is lost to time. The gods have kept it hidden, its purpose still unknown.
In this world, everyone is born with a bloodline that grants unique powers. But there are two forces that everyone can tap into: Magic and Flow. While both are accessible, mastering them is a different story.
Magic
Magic is the natural energy that connects everything in the world. It's the force of creation and destruction, and anyone can learn it with enough training. To harness magic fully, one needs control over their mind, intelligence, and willpower.
Elemental Magic lets you control fire, water, earth, wind, lightning, ice, and more. It's used for combat, survival, or even daily tasks.
Dark Magic includes necromancy, blood magic, and curses. It's powerful but feared for its corrupting influence.
Holy Magic brings healing, blessings, and purification. It's practiced by monks, clerics, and paladins to protect and restore.
Mind and Soul Magic includes telepathy, illusions, and manipulating emotions. It can affect thoughts, dreams, and memories.
Arcane Magic deals with manipulating time, space, and the laws of reality. It's the most complex and is studied by elite mages.
Magic relies solely on mental power and discipline. With the right focus, anyone can learn and use it. But the stronger the mind, the more potent the magic.
Flow
Flow is the life force that runs through every living being. Unlike Magic, which only requires mental control, Flow demands both mental and physical power to master. It's much harder to control, but it unlocks greater strength.
Only those with exceptional physical strength and mental discipline can train in Flow. It's a difficult and demanding art, as it pushes both the body and the mind to their limits.
There are three types of Flow:
- Flowing through the body enhances physical strength, speed, and endurance. A master of this form can break mountains with their bare hands.
- Flowing into weapons strengthens them, making them more destructive. Weapons enhanced with Flow can cut through anything.
- Emission is the most advanced form, where users can release Flow outward, creating shockwaves or protective barriers. This requires vast energy, and only the strongest can wield it.
Unlike Magic, which anyone can use to some extent, Flow requires immense mental and physical strength. Only those with the greatest endurance, like the most powerful bloodlines, are able to fully train and master Flow.
Everyone can tap into Magic and Flow, but the true mastery of Flow is reserved for the strongest, those who have the mental fortitude and physical prowess to train their bodies as well as their minds. The more you train, the greater your potential becomes.
