In the beginning, before time took its first breath, there was only the Primordial Void—an endless expanse of silence and stillness, where nothing stirred, and nothing lived.
From this abyss emerged two colossal dragons, eternal and bound in cosmic duality:
One, ashen as the void itself, scales shimmering with the depth of unending night. The other, pure as the untouched snow, glowing faintly with an ancient, serene light. Together, they were the Black and White Parents—creators of all existence, keepers of balance beyond mortal comprehension.
From their union, five dragons were born—each embodying a fundamental force that would shape the fledgling universe:
Ignaroth, the Flame Warden, whose breath forged fire and molten earth.Vaelyndros, the Stormbringer, who commanded winds and skies.Thalrion, the Deep One, ruler of oceans and hidden depths.Draxeris, the Stoneheart, eternal guardian of mountains and soil.Chronarix, the Timeless, master of fate's unyielding flow.
Each dragon carved their domain from the chaos, birthing five mighty clans whose fates were intertwined with their creators. These clans wielded powers reflective of their dragon's essence—masters of flame, storm, sea, stone, and time itself.
The Disappearance of the Black and White Parents
Yet, in the dawn of creation, the Black and White Parents vanished without trace—disappeared into the very fabric of the cosmos they had birthed. Some say they ascended beyond the mortal realm, becoming mythic forces watching silently from the edges of existence. Others whisper of a great calamity—an ancient betrayal or a sacrifice to preserve the fragile balance of the world.
Their absence left a void—not just of presence, but of guidance. The fledgling clans, once bound by the will of their progenitors, found themselves adrift.
The Foundation of the Five Dragon Clans
In the wake of the Black and White Parents' disappearance, the five creator dragons—each a child of the cosmic progenitors—rose to claim their legacies. No longer mere offspring, they became sovereigns of their realms, founding great clans to carry their power and vision forward.
Clan Pyrothar, born of Ignaroth's fiery forge, embraced war and renewal through fire.Clan Zephryss, led by Vaelyndros, soared with storms and swift justice.Clan Abyssalor, guardians of secrets beneath the waves, held wisdom and silence.Clan Terrakhan, steadfast as mountains, upheld strength and endurance.Clan Tempestris, followers of Chronarix, commanded the flow of time and fate's unyielding march.
Though separate, the clans shared a bond forged from their common origin—a pact to protect the world their parents had created. Yet, without the guiding light of the Black and White Parents, conflicts simmered beneath the surface, ambitions clashed, and the fragile balance threatened to unravel.
The Age of Uncertainty
Thus, the world stands at a crossroads. The ancient dragons and their clans hold power beyond imagining, yet the mystery of the missing progenitors haunts the land. The fate of all rests in the hands of those who dare to rise—those who will either restore balance or shatter the world's fragile peace forever.
