The Awakening

Celestial / Cosmic

The beginning of life on Aesor.

Year 0 of the First Age (Kalzamaath’s Rise) (Just moments before the Awakening)   Aesor's history unfolds from the shadows of a profound conflict known as the Aria, a tumultuous epoch that spanned possibly millions of years in the chronicles of time, transpiring Before (the) Awakening (B.A). These ancient cosmic wars of the Myst defined the celestial struggle between two factions: the Scions of Haeis representing the radiant forces of light and the Scions of Vals, embodying the chaotic embrace of shadow.   With time, the Scions of Haeis found themselves gradually succumbing to the relentless onslaught of their shadowy counterparts, the Scions of Vals. Over eons, the dominion of light grew dimmer, and the web of shadowy influence tightened around the remnants of the Scions of Haeis.   Yet, amid the twilight of their supremacy, Myst's history took an unexpected turn. It commenced with the appearance of a singular figure: the last surviving dragon from the Scions of Haeis. This dragon, known as Kyro, cradled a relic of the universe—the Heart of the Myst—in its claws. The beating heart of the Myst and the only tool of creation gifted by the Idolons.   Kyro, the lone dragon of Light, clasping the Heart of the Myst with unwavering resolve, embarked on an audacious mission. Faced with the encroaching darkness that threatened to extinguish all Light, Kyro committed an act of ultimate sacrifice. In a daring bid to safeguard the Heart and ensure the survival of the Heart’s legacy, Kyro plunged into the abyss, hurtling toward the nearest star it could find.   Yet, Arizen, a formidable dragon of Shadow, heralded in legend as the first to emerge among the Scions of Vals, confronted Kyro during this perilous descent. Arizen sought to intercept Kyro's valiant act, clutching at the last dragon of Light in a desperate bid to halt its plummet.   Their collision with the scorching star marked a climax in the Myst’s history. Kyro, Arizen, and the Heart of the Myst fused in a maelstrom of energy and fire, entwined in a tempestuous dance of light and shadow. The consequences of this cataclysmic convergence would shape the course of Aesor's history, unleashing untold consequences and setting the stage for a new era—an era defined by the ever-oscillating interplay between light and shadow.   In the wake of the cataclysmic collision between Kyro, Arizen, and the Heart of the Myst within the blazing heart of a star, a momentous event transpired that would forever shape the destiny of Aesor. From the explosion of that collision, a new Scion awaited its birth. Thus, Kalzamaath came into existence, a force born amidst the raging fires of creation.
