Chapter 1: The Forgotten World

Neptar, a planet long forgotten through time. Long ago, this planet was my home. I have such fond memories of it, for years this was the planet had I grown up in, made friends, laughed, played, and slept. Us Neptarians have similar features to humans, we dress similarly, speak similarly, and even look similar however we are far from human. Neptarians possess abilities unknown to humans the most common of which is the ability to project fire and the ability to hover in mid-air for a short amount of time. However, it’s rare but indeed possible for one of us to possess various unique abilities, this breed of Neptarian is called an abnormal. These Neptarians have the possibility to be born with strange abilities which could either be helpful or detrimental to their future.

Neptar is a relatively small planet its size is roughly that of the very well know planet Mars. Neptar consists of three main continents Yelm, being the largest and most populated continent. Its capital is named Hearth and it is home to the Imperial Knight, one of Neptar’s strongest warriors I had always heard stories of him but I’d never really had the chance to see him but ever since I could remember he had always been my idol, I strove to be just like him. Within Hearth, the Imperial Knight runs his very own training academy. Here many Neptarians are trained in a way which brings out their full potential and helps build their future for greatness. The next continent is named Xaar, Xaar is a very well-guarded continent the reason for which is due to the fact that its capital is the royal kingdom of Torn here was where I lived. I had a place to stay at the royal palace. This was because my grandfather was the great king of Neptar, his name was Zant. Torn is similar similar to Hearth due to the fact that it also has its own training academy, however unlike Hearth this academy trains its warriors for the sole purpose of becoming royal knights, the highest level a warrior can attain I dreamt of becoming a royal knight and serving under my grandfather, I even enrolled there. A royal knights job is simply to protect Torn and its inhabitants. Both of these academies rank their students based on two criteria, skill and abilities, however, the basics such as strength, speed, or defensive capabilities are also taken into account. Schools give each student an assigned rank based off of their level of expertise. The ranks include D, C, B, A, S, and Elite.
