Backround and History:
PRELUDE-
This is the beginning of my story although it was not written in into way later into saga 4. It tells of what happen to the Tsuki race and the first war, The War of Gods. Onitora The Life Giver's Prophecy comes to pass "Two young twin girls are born with mixed blood of two goddesses on the moon Suta-Raito, when they are of age they will bring unlock ruin and war to there people, and bring about the rebirth of Life and Death" Haminaioshi and Ayame, although at war with each other, agree to keep the young girls under care and away from those who seek to unlock the realm gates and begin a war that would last for thousands of years to come.

It starts out in the Tsuki capital Celestial with Heru/Shiju, a young teenager who still is in school for advanced magic moving to become one of the royal guards of the Tsuki's goddess and creator Haminaioshi. During the daily routine life Heru and his closest friend Leo's, meet two young twin girls by the names of Arwen and Marawen. The two girls lived outside of the city and were outcast of the society having mixed blood from Haminaioshi's Sister Ayame's group of elves that lived on the darker half of the moon's surface. Heru almost instantly falls for the young girl Arwens carefree and laid back attitude, a long with her upbeat personality. Arwen on the other hand is only talking for her sister who is infatuated with Heru, seeing him before in the market. As the group runs into each other time and time again Arwen's curiosity for Heru and Leo's only makes her push her sister harder to spend time with the two boys. As the days go on they spend there lives getting to know the two strange twins. As they get older though, Heru and Leo's duties become more and more as they get closer to the trials they have to undertake as Haminaioshi's chosen. Leo's focuses more on his duties as Arwen find's more and more ways to pull Heru from his duties, and his infatuation for Arwen and Marawen slowly turns into love. As he get's ever closer to the deadline to the trials, Haminaioshi explains to the twins and Heru about the girls prophecy and that they are under safe guard here in Celestial. She also explains to them that Marawens blood and Arwens is the key to the realms gates and when spilled, could mean disaster for the realms. Unable to escape going away for a year he finally confesses to the girls his feelings before he leaves, swearing to return to them. As the year of training passes Heru returns to them just as promised only to realize that the nexus the Shadowrealm is letting Deamons and other threats in against the twins. Haminaioshi dispatches a team a team of the newest 7 royal guards. (Heru, Leos, Kyrois, Linwe, Morian, Rin, and Terra) That were to watch over the girls and protect them from this new threat. The battle to protect them waged for four months but sadly, Morian betrayed Celestial and let Demthirios's right hand Solstus inside the realm. The guard faltered when Marawen was taken as bait to lure Arwen into a trap, and while Shiju was searching for the twins Arwen faced off against the powerful Deamon but only to be defeated, with Solstus thinking Arwen was dead he sacrificed Marawen just before Heru was able to reach them. Arwen was able to reach out for her sister in time to save what remained of her soul inside herself Solstus knocking her back into the wall burying her in a pile of rubble. In Heru's anger he used the forbidden magics of the Tsuki to cause a spin out of magical energy consuming Solstus in his anger, Solstus was able to feign death by hiding the last bit of his presence inside of Heru's soul to regain his strength.

As the gates fell Celestial was consumed in the war of the realms and became a battlefield leaving hardly any alive the 7 guard falling one by one to the countless numbers of soldiers from alien races. Haminaioshi task Heru and Leo's on one final mission to kill the god of Deamons, Demthirios with her most sacred arrow...Starsplitter. As Shiju and Leo's take to the front lines and work there way into the masses Heru and Leo's challenge the God to a duel. Blinded by his own pride, Demthirios takes up the offer letting them pass into the waves of Deamons. As the battle goes on Leos distracts Demthirios getting dealt a fatal blow in the process giving Heru time to pull out the arrow and land a direct hit on the Deamon god. The blast from the arrow blinds the field of battle with a huge explosions expelling Heru and Leo's a crossed the ground in a broken heep slowly dying from the wounds. Haminaioshi uses the last bit of her powers to save the remaining Tsuki Heru, Arwen, Leo's, and Rin barely survived the spell it spreading there souls down towards Earth realm to be reborn into the bodies of humans to hide there presence. This last act left the goddess drained and she was unable to save her lands from the war. With the goddess gone and the Tsuki dead, they were forgotten in history. Only to survive in the Elder Tomes of Earth realm.

SAGA 1 INFORMATION-
Saga 1 takes place after the prelude and was originally the beginning of my story. This saga actually starts the new life of Heru as a human Shijumaru and goes through his time as a human.

This story starts five hundred years after the prelude when Haminaioshi feels now is a good time to bring back the Tsuki. The world was torn with war, but with Demthirios dead, and the Elementals and there god Rathius sacrificing themselves to return Earth realm to it's former beauty. The time to bring them back was coming closer at hand. She released the soul's of the surviving 36 Tsuki into the world including Heru, Leo's, Arwen, and Rin. She gave them life in the forms of 5 year old children and gave them features of the human race there power lying dormant inside themselves. She then erased there memories leaving them close to groups that she knew would keep them safe. All but one, Rin. Who's life was barely saved and needed another Tsuki to help breath life back into her.

Saga 1 starts Shiju off in a clan of dragon tamers called The White Dragon. This group raised Shiju until he was old enough to finally start the Elemental Trials to choose the dragon that would be his partner. Shiju's extraordinary skills and magical prowess from his dormant blood gave him the power to call upon the Fire Dragon Draco, the Ice Dragon Silnesti, the Earth Dragon Ralok, the Wind Dragon Razor, and talk to a mysterious Dragon that the clan knew nothing of, Chronos. As the Elemental Trials continued for Shiju the village came under attack by a group of feudal lords warring in the area. White Dragon Clan had become a threat and was to be dealt with for playing both sides for money and choosing it's clients by there own morals even turning away some of the more powerful lords because of there evil nature. When Shiju returned with the five dragon eyes, the village was already burned to the ground. With his family gone and only a torn banner to find the Lords he grabbed the ancestral sword of his clan the Crimson Katana and set out in search of them.

After a long journey he found his targets and the demonic katanas power did the rest making short work of the lords in a staged meeting he set up. After killing the two lords though he found himself fighting off a countless number of guards somehow fighting his way to the top of the castle leaping off the rooftop into a river far below, only to emerge to the town guardsman. As he was being taken away to await execution a young priestess stopped the guards and arranged for his release. The priestesses name was Ashley Silverlight. Shiju had no choice but to follow his code and protect this young priestess as she made her way back to the Cathedral of Light.The Cathedral of Lights purpose was to provide safe haven from war and quell the horrors that spawn from these dark times, keeping the Deamon at bay with special protective wards to seal the gate ways leading to there Realm. As time went by the two of them were set out to quell various problems around the lands. Shiju was to safe guard the priestess and keep her safe acting as her sword so she could focus on her missions, but eventually the long missions only drew them closer Ashley's vows to the temple and Shiju's ignorance on the subject keeping most of the feelings locked away. Mission by mission, they managed to meet new faces and people along there travels. The two slowly making a name for themselves this continuing for some time until the dark necromancer Verios, a criminal and well known murderer set into motion a power far beyond his control. With his countless ritual sacrifices under the nose of the Cathedrals nose, he was finally able to make a portal to the Shadowrealm. He was quickly over taken by the Creatures of deaths realm his body in slaved by the Rakul. (A group of soul taking shadow creatures from the Shadowrealm that possess one body) With his new found power, he continued to further his dark research listening to the Rakul inside of him, opening gates further and further into the darkness until he stumbled upon the Deathbringer. A chaotic, insane dragon of the Shadowrealm and Deaths personal champion. With the Deathbringers release upon Earth realm, it spread chaos upon the lands. His presence felt from one side of the lands to the other, causing fear and wide spread panic into the realm. City's were torn from the map and the capital of the main land. Istalia, was destroyed and became the Deathbringers new home. Thus, the Dragon Wars began.

The news of the capital falling reached the islands of Fal'ia, home of the Cathedral of Light. It's order quickly beginning a counter offensive against this dragon and it's swarm of followers, who were now taking over the main land in swarms. As the problem was further investigated it became known that Verios, the necromancer that Ashley and Shiju let escape, was the cause of all of these problems and the releasing of this unknown dragon. As the Cathedral weighed it's anger on Ashley, she swore to them that she would find a way to fix the problems that had been created by Verios, Shiju could only listen from behind closed doors to the ridicule that was befalling the young woman in anger. Soon after the meetings the islands were attacked by the swarm making them start a last minute defense on the Cathedrals borders. This last ditch effort was put together quickly causing many casualties and broken lines there armies not able to hold the swarms of dragons and creatures pouring from the sea. It's when thing's looked there lowest that a traveler of the realms came to there aid, a elder Dragonkin that had been stricken by a Vampire at a young age, known only as the Vampiric Dragon. He helped hold the swarms back from the island enough for the Cathedral to finish there plans, dumping the carry out of these plans on the two that caused them, Ashley and Shiju.

During the time that Ashley was going over the council meetings for the next week, Vampiric Dragon took a liking to the young man Shiju, and began to train him in the Shadowrealm itself to combat these foes. Time slowed tremendously in this area, making it the perfect place to hone ones skill's for the oncoming onslaught from the Deathbringer. This world is all Shiju knew for the next seven month's of his life, training to become a more powerful warrior and to call upon the powers of the Shadowrealms forbidden magics as much as his body could handle without tearing itself a part with the strong magics. One day during the training he came upon something extraordinary A phoenix, the life giver herself Onitora, who came with a warning to him to Vamp. That the Deathbringer was only part of the problem, that his strings were being pulled behind the scenes by Death himself. With the human forces unable to do much against Death, Shiju and Ashley were to lead the charge against Deathbringer. Onitora and her protector Vincent would handle stopping Death from entering the realm of Earth and stop him once and for all. With Shiju's basic training finished Vampiric Dragon left him to handle his own affairs and wished him luck before he set out Shiju never hearing from this strange Dragonkin again....As Shiju returned to the realm of Earth a week had passed and Ashley's council meetings were over they set out to find this dragon and put an end to him once and for all.

As the war waged on they finally caught up to the dragon in the outskirts of the capital Istalia with the main force able to push the dragons minions back to this final showdown, the last battle commenced. with both sides fighting on, Ashley and Shiju finally faced off against Deathbringer. Draco, Silnesti, Ralok, and Razor stood at Shiju's side as he fought this enormous dragon Ashley on the back of Silnesti fighting to seal the dragon back into the Shadowrealm closing there nexus gate to Earth realm. Ralok, Razor, and Silnesti fell in order to protect Ashley from the dragons devastating black breath just in time for her to finish her ritual to close the gate. With a final valiant effort Draco pushed the Deathbringer back into the realm of shadows both of the dragons disappearing behind the closed gate back into the Shadowrealm...the realm had been saved. As Shiju recovered from the long battle, Ashley slowly made her way back to his side both bruised and banged up from the relentless fighting. Verios appeared from the shadows thrusting his dagger into Ashley's back threw her heart, dealing her a fatal blow and striking a Soul taking dark art on Shiju. A trap that either of them was unprepared for. As Shiju felt his life slipping away, Chronos the mysterious dragon came to his rescue, the divine silver dragon of Haminaioshi the goddess. His presence and light from the dragon awoke the dormant blood stirring with his pain and despair from losing Ashley, awakening his Tsuki Soul inside of him. The full moon changed his form into that of a silver haired Tsuki he using the power to fight off Verios's attacks, Striking a fatal blow on him with the Crimson Katana. Verios's sensing his time was ending placed one final curse upon Shiju for taking his life. He would never die by natural means, and would never be able to see Ashley again.

SAGA 2 INFORMATION-
Saga 2 is another that takes place right after the events of Saga 1, It goes through him coming into his new powers and his past, starting his mission from the goddess to bring the Tsuki race back home and start over.

As the event's of saga 1 come to a close, Shiju stays in the broken battlefield holding Ashley in his arms, as the rain clears he finally picks up her lifeless body carrying her back to his small cabin in forest just outside Parness burying her near the cabin making her a gravestone. He spends many years in this secluded cabin with his grief and the constant hounding of Chronos to pick himself up and follow him to meet the goddess. Time and time again Shiju refuses his human body never aging becoming more and more lost in his grief. It's then that he is met by a visitor, Onitora. Telling him of his master, the Vampiric Dragon died, and filling him in on what happen at the battle with Death. She told him of Vincent's sacrifice and that he had stricken Death down in combat but both were unaware of the god's taint and Vincent was taken over by the gods power becoming the new Death god of the realm. The loss weighed heavy on her heart and it was obvious that Onitora was not giving Shiju the whole story but he let it go only listening to her story. As she finished her story she told him of his past and that Shiju and herself had met before, in a past he had forgotten and a mission that he also failed to accomplish. This new information struck a long forgotten memory that was unclear to him but he knew was true when she told him of it. For the first time in twenty years, he had the ambition to once again search for the answers to his long forgotten pass. As Onitora left him, she gave Shiju a final message. "...When the three of you return together, I will seek you out once more Shiju. For your true calling and purpose." With this she vanished, disappearing out of reality and out of his life once more.

With his new ambition he finally picked up Crimson Katana and returned once more to Chronos, to finally begin his journey to the goddess. They waited for the next full moon when Shiju would change once more into his Tsuki form so that he could survive the trip, and with Shiju on his back, flew off towards the ruins of the once proud city Celestial on Earths Moon, Suta-Raito. As they landed on the once lush greens of the Moon were now nothing more then Dirt and Ash frozen in time, Shiju's memories were clearer here being this close to the goddess. Each step he took towards her ruined temple in the center of the city ruins, more memories came back to him in flashes remembering running into the markets going to school, and the two twins that were with him and that he failed. He froze at that thought, wondering if it could be true, that Ashley was not the only one that he had failed to protect, Onitora's words were slowly starting to make sense now. As he entered her temple Haminaioshi appeared before him telling him of his race and what had happen, and her plan to return the Tsuki to there home here so that they could finally be at peace like was meant, and that she needed him to find and awaken the others on Earth acting as her arms for this purpose. Shiju agreed after thinking it through clearly and the goddess gave him the power to awaken the other's when he found them and with that, he set out to find the other Tsuki. He eventually finds 19 of the Tsuki. Leos, Ardas, Cordus, Riki, Sindalian, Tirentis, Uri, Arial, Lily, Sayako, Willow, Kuran, Orkus, Ortilus, Urian, Bethany, Talia, and Yura. With this group at his back, they started over, Shiju leading them and passing on Haminaioshi's teachings. It was then that the last remaining of Ayame, the sister goddess of Haminaioshi learned of Haminaioshi's plans through communing to Ayame and sent one of the only surviving of her people to search Earth realm for Haminaioshi's chosen and stop his plans, Shinie. With Shinie's hatred of the Tsuki fresh in his mind and no care of the goddesses wishes, because of the two leaving them stranded on Suta Raito to scrounge and try to stay alive, he set out to kill Haminaioshi's champion, he sets down on earth with blood on his mind. As Shiju teaches the other's how to use there powers and leads them closer to the gateway back to Celestial, some begin to question what they remember and if the goddess was leading them on the right path and become doubtful. Arguments start among the Tsuki and some begin to use their powers in selfish ways, Shiju is forced to stop them and the action creates rifts between them. Shinie appears in this confusion, telling the others that they have been tricked by a false goddess that destroyed the Tsuki in the first place. This successfully breaks up the Tsuki into two factions each going there own way. Shiju at a loss why his own race, already in danger, is warring with each other when they should be rebuilding. With his mine stressed over Shinie and the other's sabotaging and constant attacking, he is finally pushed over the edge when Willow is wounded in combat and barely survives. He finally calls upon a final showdown between himself and Shinie, but instead of Shinie showing he blows the house that Willow was resting in to pieces behind Shiju's back. Enraged by Shinie's actions and his own ignorance he confronts Shinie and the others in open battle, Leos and the others close behind Shiju. As the war wages on the two groups go at odds killing each other one by one. As Shiju finally finds his way to Shinie, Shinie activates one of his spells. Shiju Disrupts it in time but it only makes it unstable blowing them both into the open rifts of the realms, tossing them from the realm and into random rifts in space, lost to the known realms for almost a hundred years.

With the sudden burst from the realms, the power makes Shiju lose his memories and is left floating in the rifts for what seems like an eternity. Till the time when Shiju is thrown in to the realm of Kaygos. This land was teaming with life and is a sister Realm to Earth, also aligned with the Cathedral of Light. He wakes up in a bed unable to remember what happen or how he got there, but able to remember his name. It is here that he meets Alyth, a young priestess at the Temple of Light. With time to recover from his wounds and a moment to rest, he quickly falls in love with the small ocean village and it's people. He offers to help Alyth for what shes done for him by helping with her life in the village, the strangely curious girl often ask Shiju about what he can remember about his life before hand, and when she gets no answers becomes slightly frustrated with him. It's not long before Shiju starts noticing things off with this land and begins to investigate further into it. With constant warnings from Alyth, he goes off on a journey to search this land looking for answers to who he is or how he got here, but finding nothing but riddles and strange markings. With his mind in a state of confusion Chronos finally finds Shiju to bring him home, but Shiju refuses to leave Alyth here and Chronos refuses to take her. The dragon quickly becomes infuriated at the loss of his memory and tries to convince him that this is not where he belongs trying to convince him one last time with no avail. Shiju stays watching the dragon disappear from the realm. With the appearance of Chronos, the Temple of Light becomes nervous and sets there plan into motion sealing off there realm from anyone getting in or out. With the realms closed Alyth begins her plan and waits till Shiju is sleeping to activate the curse that the temple placed on him paralyzing his body. They transport him to the Temple to finally steal the unknown power of his curse that was placed on him by Verios and steal the secrets of immortality. As the spell is activated, Verios's curse placed on his body and his Tsuki blood are mixed his true form taking the effect's of the immortality curse into itself mutating his bodies structure to hold more of his true form his body altering to hold his true form without the full moon. With the jolt of power, the seal on his memories releases and remembers fully about the War of gods and that Alexander and the other gods did to his people...and Marawen and Arwen. His magics swirl around him harming his physical form making him spin out. (A emotional Tsuki can lose themselves much like a beserkers rage, but a spin out acts as a channel of the worlds energy and the Tsuki is the funnel letting them use high destructive spells but at the cost of losing ones mind and never coming back from the spin, becoming a mindless beast.) He quickly destroys the Temple of Light moving on towards the lands devouring the souls of the small realm built by Alexander is meant to act as a holding cell for Shiju till they could absorb his powers. As the realm crumble Alyth takes refuge back in Earth realm, Shiju close behind her.

The realm had changed becoming older, the 153 years Shiju had been gone has been more than 497 years since his last arrival on this world. Peace had been obtained and the Cathedral of Light had become the center bastion of power. Humans had become more advanced and gathered the use of elemental magic, as well as mastered divine art and necromancy magic. Elves had become all but non existent, staying together in forested area's...but the world was far from perfect. The Cathedral had it's hands in any and everything, becoming corrupt even up to there head priestess, the hand of Alexander. This only added to Shiju's disgust of what this place had turned into. With Alyth hiding in the Cathedral of Light and Shiju unable to break there defenses, his rage won over, going to the furthest most regions of Fal'ia, breaking the seal with his new found power. With the seal down the Deamons were able to finally enter Earth realm, and Shiju used the advantage to head further into the Deamons Realm to talk to there Lord Lucifer himself. The battling in the realm never stopped but Shiju pressed further and further until he found his audience with the Deamon lord. In a brash boost, Shiju threatened to kill the Demon Lord if he did not help destroy the Cathedral. Lucifer, finding his courage and boost amusing, agreed to help Shiju and gave him the sister weapon to the demonic sword he held in his hand, Delis the Blood Drinker. Shiju took the sword unaware of what it would do to him. As he exited the Realm the swords power and demonic taint drew on Solstus's presence, and when it did, Solstus took over. In control of the power of Shiju's spin out, he waged all out war with the race, the Cathedral was quickly taken over by the Deamon army and broke into the final walls of the temple. Solstus did the rest, murdering what was left of the priest and there warriors. The reincanation of Leo's (Shiju's friend from prelude) was the last knight of the cathedral to protect Alyth. Solstus and Leo's battled fought for quite some time before Leo's fell in defeat to the possessed Shiju, he then turning to Alyth. As she fell to her knees in defeat, Shiju found enough of his strength to pull himself out of the spin out and his control. The damage was done though, Earth had fallen to the Deamon race. With guilt, pain, and agony over what happened and the loss of his closest friend, he turned away destroying Delis, and leaving Alyth there in the Cathedral of Light alive. He disappearing into the Parness Forest Chronos finding him leading him away into Haminaioshi's realm.

SAGA 3 INFORMATION-
Saga 3 starts with the events following Saga 2, Shiju has retreated into Parness avoiding contact with anyone else afraid of what might happen if Solstus takes over once more. Chronos leads him to Haminaioshi who was waiting in the deepest parts of Parness. She leads him towards a ancient gate that has been unused and hidden inside the large forest for hundreds of years unknown even to the elves. With her power she reactivates the gate guiding it's magics of space and time to lead to her private retreat, The Forgotten Plains. This area thriving with life would be Shiju's new life till such a time that he could control the Deamon lord that was inside of him.

Years and years went by, Shiju spending his time building a large keep for himself going over it piece by piece, using raw materials that were rich and abundant in this realm to add on to the giant structure, years of failures finally turning into skill's he becoming quite familiar with Stonework, Building, Bricklayer, Concrete, Cladding(putting one material over the other as a layer for things like weather), Flooring(wood and marble), Framing, Glazing(making glass with heating up sand.), Heating, Metal Working, Landscaping, Insulation(mostly with hay or wooden powder.), Carpentry, Joinery(fitting cuts and joints in wood.), Masonry (with clay), Plastering (using unheated lime stone and lime), Stone-masonry, Drainage, and even managing to create a working Plumbing system for water using gravity and water pressure. (Don't ask how I know about all these things LOL, I really wanted to build my own house at one point of my life. ) He spent a lot of time on his free time from building on the keep doing blacksmithing the trade coming naturally to him for some reason. Years passed as he kept himself busy building this large keep, complete with it's own garden and walls. He continued this for years also, Until he realized one day....he was done, there was little more to add to this home he built for himself. With the 38 years it took to build this place he finally began his training once more in the Shadowrealm and also to expel the Deamon Lord Solstus from his soul. With his training in the Shadowrealm he pushed further into it's depths, getting closer to the throne of Death and running into a creature that Hybrid had warned him about, a Doppelganger. These creatures took the shape of the person they were looking at, and his abilities, only perfecting them, A impossible enemy to kill. It attacked Shiju without warning holding a strange blade in it's hands it screaming and glowing green as it swung it at him. Shiju defending himself both unable to land a blow on the other till Shiju started getting tired after two days of constant fighting. The more he fought the more futile it became and it all clicked, this wasn't a creature....It was the realm itself projecting the part of him that was most dominate in this realm. With this knowledge, he was able to overcome the doppelganger by accepting it inside of himself, and becoming one with both side's oh himself, light, dark, yin, and yang. With this he left the Shadowrealm picking up the strange blade from deaths realm naming it Shadowlight after his experience there. After year's of training and honing his skills, he found a way to suppress the Deamons powers inside of himself able to calm his emotional state enough to confront the Deamon in a higher plain of being. Once there Shiju finally faces off against Solstus, the battle waking up lost memories of a confrontation long ago in Celestial at it's fall. As Shiju remembers, he becomes enraged disturbing his carefully planned ritual to destroy Solstus once and for all. Solstus escapes as his plans backfire the Deamon finally strong enough to take on his form once more leaving Shiju's body and disappearing into the gate back to Earth realm.

Solstus's return did not go unnoticed by the Deamons there, finding him quickly and taking him to meet his long forgotten brother, Lucifer. Lucifer explained to him the situation and that the Deamon forces controlled most of the island Fal'ia, and that they were still at war with the mainland. Solstus then told him about the surviving Tsuki hidden inside Parness forest and offered to help his brother out if he would agree on a offensive against Haminaioshi's last born, Lucifer quickly agreed. With the two sons of Demthirios back together things on Earth realm went from bad, to worse. Deamons were now hording the captured citizens of Fal'ia into guarded walls that were built around the capitols of Fal'ia. From here the Deamon race outlawed any and all races to step foot outside of these walls, doing so would be instant execution. They then turned there attention towards the sacred forest of Parness and Lucifer called upon the service of the most skilled assassin he had in his midst.

While the Deamons were busy trying to gather the races into the North, South, East, and West capitals. The elves of Parness led by Mina Silverspear, a high elf commander of Parness. Led a expedition team to see just how the red armored Deamon got into the forest and where he came from. They quickly found the gate that led to the Forgotten Plains and Mina wasted no time setting up a attack force to enter the gateway, thinking that this may be what was causing the Deamon forces to enter there world. With a handful of soldiers they entered the Forgotten plains confused when they got there, the area lush, and green, nothing like what they expected the Deamons home to be like. Mina and her soldiers continued on looking for some signs of life till they spotted the large keep in the distance. She ordered her men to follow behind her as she approached the gates of the walls of the keep. As she opened the door Shiju sat on the large fountain in the middle of the garden here looking down at the water, sensing there approach as soon as they entered his realm. He kept his sword sheathed as Mina began to taunt him calling him a demon she finally getting him to look over at her when she mentioned the cathedral of light and if he was the cause of it's downfall. He stood saying nothing walking up to the young elf and her army, stopping just short of her blades reach looking at her only nodding. With Mina's fiery determination she attacked him after he nodded, her soldiers staying put behind her watching the dual take place. Shiju managed to avoid her attacks never drawing the cursed blade from it's sheath until she tired herself out. He stood in front of her breathing evenly as she struggled to catch her breath, Mina giving him a look that she hoped would kill him just by looking at her. Frustrated that he would not fight back she ordered her men to attack, but as soon as she spoke the words, Shiju used his wind magic to blow the soldiers out the front gate and onto there backs outside, Mina included. She continued to vent her anger Shiju closing the main gate in her face walking back to the gardens fountain looking into the water, Mina refusing to leave until Shiju lied dead at her feet. Mina tried all through the day to hit Shiju, but to no avail, her soldiers sitting outside the gate sitting down making jokes and enjoying watching there commander so fired up. He thought to himself quite a few time's to just let her end him, but knew that it would not lift the curse if he willingly gave his life. As the sun set Mina finally dropped to her knees of exhaustion, Shiju looking over at her from the fountain tossing her a filled pouch of water. This show of kindness only confused her more as she watched him disappear behind the doorway of the keep, her soldiers and herself heading back to Parness in defeat, she looking back at the keep one last time before stepping through the Gate. After the incident, Mina came back once more, but of a less violent nature. She finally got him speaking and after that, the two of them spent a lot of time conversing about his history and what was forgotten that Shiju knew about Earths past, they spent many days talking in the large sitting room from that day on. As the day's went on Mina started asking Shiju about returning to Earth realm, to try and help with what the Deamons destroyed, but he would always fall silent and say nothing in response, Mina finally gave up on the subject and returned home one night, only to be greeted by the assassin that was sent by Lucifer, Shinie.

He had fallen into the realm of the Deamons when Shiju and himself had been torn from the realms, and Shinie was more than willing to settle things with Shiju and get back to a more...hospitable world. With Mina captured he baited Shiju into his trap, leading him into Earth realm into the forest of Parness setting up countless traps and explosives in the tree's tying Mina to a tress in the middle of it all. With Mina's life in danger he picked up his two swords, walking right into the traps laid by Shinie, but Shinie had no idea how powerful and unstable Shiju had become in there time they had not seen each other. Shiju's traps did little against Shiju's time magic and strategies, he reaching Mina quickly pulling her to safety turning right back around to deal with Shinie. As Shinie taunted Shiju he was struck down in a blink of the eye, with Crimson Light Shiju thrusting the blade into his chest he opening a rift behind Shinie kicking him and the sword into it back towards the Deamon realm taking Mina back to her village in Parness. Shinie's life was barely saved only thanks to Lucifer who gave him one more chance, giving him the Crimson Katana and showing him how to use it's most devastating power. Shinie and Shiju meet again, this time in the middle of the Forgotten plains. Shinie quickly using the power of the sword to activate it's demonic power, causing hell fire and lava to erupt from the ground, Tornado's from the sky, and Earthquakes erupting from all over the Forgotten Plains, destroying the lands beautiful landscape. Shiju, manages to finally strike him down fleeing towards the Earth realm portal, leaving Shinie's lifeless body in the burning remains of his once home barely making it in time before the realm gate collapsing on itself, knocking Shiju unconscious from the force of the push he rolling into Earth realm hitting a tree laying there motionless.

With the Forgotten Plains in ruin, Shiju wakes up to see that he was bandaged up and a young human female mixing some herbs together to help the multiple cuts and bruises on his body. Her name is Sakura, a young female Kunoichi and last of her clan. With her clan gone she roamed the land trying to keep out of sight and find a way off the Deamon infested island. Her luck though ran out and she came to the forest hearing it was the safest area from the Deamon invasion right now. Shiju could not shake the feeling that he knew this girl from somewhere, but let the thought slip his mind as they made there way back to Parness city, deep inside the forest. Once there they met up with Mina and the others of her forces, Shiju explained the situation and that he had no choice but to stay in the forest. The Elders agreed that he could stay for a short time giving Shiju enough time to gather himself once more around the humans. With each passing moment in Sakura's company Shiju began to feel something stir, and it was then on the new moon that he realized who she was. Arwen had survived and had been living among the humans all this time. He could hardly believe it was her or believe it himself, All of the memories he had of her seemed nothing more than a dream yet here she stood, in the flesh. When Arwen heard the story the following night after the new moon and her change, thought he was nuts, but gave him a chance to prove it. Shiju then unlocked the dormant part of her awakening her, her memories flooding back of what happen and of her sister. Although she was awaken the long years spent on Earth and the loss of her sister changed her, she was no longer the cheerful person she once was, she wanted nothing to do with her Tsuki heritage and blamed the goddess for there suffering, and despised the fact that Shiju was still helping her. This led to a lot of arguments between the two and a rift in the closeness they once shared. With Arwen awake and battle looming over head Shiju finally decided to do what was right and rectify his mistakes, Arwens arrival giving him a sign that there was something over the horizon after all. As the two returned to Mina she had figured out a weakness in the Deamons formations around Parness and was going to attack the fortifications around Dulas, a small border town at the edge of Parness forest. Shiju then gave his word that he would see this through to the end and set off with Mina to Dulas, Arwen following for now. Thus they set off for war once again.

Dulas was taken over successfully with little casualties, the villagers and travelers stuck there agreeing to help Mina's army. It was here that Shiju learned that Arwen's sister, Marawen was still alive and inside of Arwens body, two souls in one body. Shiju was uncertain if he could do anything to bring her back into her own form as of this time but his thought's were interrupted by a counter offensive by the Deamon army, he deciding that he would think of this when he had more time. The armies slowly made there way West riding off of Morale and victory over the Deamon race, thanks to the help of Arwen and Shiju. As the West city Forherald fell back into Ally control, they moved southward. To the southern capital Elondial. It was here that they met the group of priestesses and the next Tsuki, Luna Starsplitter. Luna was not one of the original Tsuki, but the child of Leo's and Ember part of the clan of Mizu (water) elves to the east. It wasn't until after the Deamons were cleared from this region that Shiju awoken young Luna, she starting her long road of training from Shiju and Arwen. Shiju glad to at least have his best friends child in his care. As they pressed on they eventually ended up at the gates to the Eastern realm a week long war breaking out to take control of the area and press further in to the capital of the East, Saphrina. As the dust cleared they won the day taking heavy losses from the fortified gates of the East but able to last as the Mizu revolted inside there walls, taking down the last of the Deamon forces of the East. With the West, South, and East parts of the island done, All that was left was to march into the mountainous and twisting paths through Deaths Valley. Through the brief rasped of time before the last push, Shiju was able to come up with a plan to Mars, he would use what power he had to pull Mar's lifeless body from time and bring it back to this time, right after the event's of her death happen so as to not break the time loop. With Mar's body back in her possession Arwen and Mars started the process of reverting her soul back to her own body after her body was healed. For the first time in hundreds of years, Mars and Arwen were able to look at each other once more, this allowing Arwen to soften up once more. With Mars and Arwen safe, Haminaioshi finally told Shiju the last bit of information she kept from him, and the love that the three of them shared. She then returned his memories and feelings for the girls back to him, confident he could handle the weight of them once more. With both at his side again, he moved onward to the army once more, to close the Deamon seal once and for all. The only entrance way to the Northern regions the home of the Deamon forces and location of there realm gate. After a long grueling fight fight through Deaths Valley, the army reached the entrance way to the North. Fighting for weeks until finally the Deamons started giving way. With the Deamon army in chaos and his brother too fearful to step out of his realm, Solstus readied for battle targeting Shiju right away. The two had there final battle once more Solstus power growing from being so close to his realm, Shiju losing ground to the powerful Deamon that had been possessing him all these years. It was at this moment that Shiju lost control of himself, fearing he might not be able to protect them again from this monster, he spun out. Losing all control of himself turning into a mindless powerful channel of magic. With the constant flow of magic and no more fear, he finally bested the Deamon Solstus , sending him to the realm of the dead, where he belonged. The war was finally over... but Shiju was still out of control.

With Shiju spun out, he couldn't tell the difference between friend or foe, striking at anyways. Arwen and Mars forced to hold him back from the humans. Until they came. Zenatasha and her follower Emily...A master at controlling others emotions took full control of Shiju through his emotional rage, turning him against the sisters leaving them in the dirt before Mina's broken army. With a final smirk of satisfaction at her plans, Zenatasha and her followers left....taking Shiju with them but forgetting Shadowlight.

SAGA 4 INFORMATION-
The event's of saga 4 happen directly after Shiju is taken after a brief interlude. In this time Arwen, Marawen, and Luna Devise a plan to get Shiju out of Zenatasha's hands. Planning to travel to the main land and Zenatasha's floating fortress.

Shiju's disappearance weighs heavily on the girls, Arwen becoming agitated and angry with Shiju for letting himself become captured. Marawen having problems of her own, trying to find her self once more in her own body and dealing with Arwens mood swings. Luna only kept training, holding onto Shiju's sword Shadowlight, trying to devise a plan to get Shiju back while the two twins sulked about. It wasn't till Arois came to tell them she located Shiju that they finally started moving once more. With there destination set to the Main land, they set out in search of this floating fortress that was constantly on the move.

Arwen's mood got no better as they got closer to the mainland she hiding her shame of not being able to help him with her anger with him, Marawen the only one that saw this. Luna gathered her two closest friends, Kairi and Lilian to travel with her. Both were former priestesses of light a long with Luna, and had powers of there own. Kairi was more of a big sister to Luna than a friend, scolding her when she did something stupid, she only showing her caring side around Lilian and Luna. Lilian was born into the role of High Elven priestess from the day one, she showed remarkable talent in wielding light magic and was very kind, acting like a mother to Luna sometimes. With Luna and her friends mixed up with each other and Arwen's promise to look after Luna, Arwen had no choice but to tag a long on this trip.

Upon arrival they were met with a sight they did not expect, the port town of Murian had been burned to ashes. As Arwen and Luna investigated further they realized that they were not alone,a young girl stepped forward to greet them. Sakurai, a master of manipulating the dead and manipulation magic stared at them with blank shadowed eyes. She was only nine and already was a force to be reckoned with, one of Zenatasha's elite Nine. She swarmed the girls with a army of undead villagers using her powers to play havoc on the untrained minds of Luna, Kairi, and Lilian. With the three of them down Arwen stepped in making short work of the undead until Sakurai threw at her the undead children. Arwen froze in her tracks unable to strike down the children, even if they were already dead. With a smug smile Sakurai struck at Arwen when her guard was down, her undead throwing her into a wall. Marawen stepped in saving the group with a well aimed arrow to Sakurai's right hand, disrupting the child's incantations. With a warning to them Sakurai faded from there sight and the undead fell motionless around them, lifeless.

With there rough start and Arwen recovering the group went on the defensive hiding in the forest for now staying out of sight from Zenatasha's countless soldiers. The battles continued time and time again, Mars, Luna, Kairi, and Lilian struggling to keep them at bay to give Arwen a moments peace to rest, but it was all in vain. Ryuki Darkstar found them, the elemental master and unparalleled swordsman in Zenatasha's elite nine. She struck with a force the girls had never seen before, dealing with Luna, Lilian, Mars, and Kairi at the same time. The battle moving to a standoff, Ryuki only buying time for her companion Miyuki the Reaver. A direct disciple of Death, Miyuki wielded a large scythe and was an excellent assassin. Miyuki found Arwen quickly, she resting inside a cave in the forest. As Miyuki struck though Arwen vanished using one of her cloans to trick Miyuki. She used this diversion to strike at Miyuki from behind, landing a glazed blow on Miyuki that would have been fatal if not for her living cloak. The material acted as a life form, becoming solid as steel and able to change it's form into large spikes that stretched forth. Arwen was injured badly by the cloak and went on the defensive, able to hold her off long enough for the others to deal with Ryuki making her withdraw from battle. With Miyuki surrounded, she followed behind Ryuki planning there next attack. Arwen was saved, and her injuries had only become worse.

With Arwen recovering, but able to walk now at least. They carried on further into the main land. Each and every small village they came a crossed was burnt to the ground. None of them able to understand what was going on here until they finally reached the capital city Istalia. There they found that the city was in a state of civil war, and Zenatasha was only gaining from the humans warring among themselves, she pulling the strings behind the many wars that broke out. Why was she doing all of this, and on top of that taking Shiju as well? None of them had a answer. It was then that Mars spotted Zenatasha's flying fortress, thus the five set out together to finally put an end to this, or so they thought.

Among arrival Shijumaru was waiting for them as they landed, fully dressed still in his armor. The smell of burnt flesh and magical energies fresh around him. The torrent of magic from being spun so long burning into his skin. It was here that Arwen, Marawen, Luna, Kairi, and Lilian met the rest of the Elite Nine in battle. Ryuki-The Elemental Swordsman, Oko - The Fanned Wind Dancer, Miyuki - The Reaver, Emily - The Seducer, Aina - The Waterfall, Sakurai - The Undead Dancer, Tsubaki - Lightnings Blade, Sakura - Zenatasha's Right Hand, Uriah - Volcano Fist. The five girls struggled against the Elite 9 that fought, Emily keeping Shiju close at her side, Shiju only watching as the girls were being overwhelmed. With him only watching and Arwens anger already she charged Shiju determined to either wake him up or kill him in the process. but was stopped short by Zenatasha's warriors.
With the girls all but defeated Luna, Arwen, and Mars, were able to get one final shot in together hitting the smug Uriah in the chest with a powerful force of compressed Time, Space, and Gravity magic. The blast caught Uriah completely off guard, it destroying her completely by Space magic creating small rifts in the fabric of time and space a crossed her body splicing her in sections, Gravity magic compressing her remains, and time magic speeding up her aging process turning her remains into dust. With Uriah gone, Arwen, Mars, Luna, Kairi, and Lilian fled the floating fortress. With the remaining eight hot on there tail.

They chased them endlessly, Oko being the first to catch up hot on Luna's tail. Arwen and Mars setting a clever trap for Oko up ahead, Mar's porting ahead aiming her bow infusing all of her gravity magic into the arrow, giving it the force of thousands of pounds behind it's draw. Oko quickly caught up to Luna she leaping down out of the air into the forest quickly, carrying Kairi and Lilian in her arms. As Oko followed she was met by Arwens boot to her face, sending Oko spiraling out of her flight, Arwen jumping on her planting one of her black powder bombs directly in her kimono. It exploding sending her skin into a fit of burning and itching. Giving Arwen enough time to blow her into the air with a massive telepathic push and right into Mars arrow which obliterated her on impact.
Thus the fall of Oko.

With the loss of Oko, the elite got smarter about there tactics. Ryuki burning the entire forest down, forcing them into Aina's attack, a massive wave of water from the large river behind her washing them back towards Tsubaki. Tsubaki released a wall of lightning from above electrifying the entire forest making the five girls run for cover outside of the trees. Marawen combated Tsubaki keeping her at bay as the others ran for it. Tsubaki a tough foe wounding Mars quite a few times, but in the end was over taken by Mar's strategies and tactics. The others ran straight into there trap. Aina and Ryuki waiting on them to come out, they charged them Arwen and Luna making quick work of Aina, but Ryuki striking at the girls Lilian and Kairi knocking them unconscious and into Miyuki's hands.

Miyuki threatened to kill Kairi and Lily if they did not comply. Arwen and Luna lowering there weapons reluctantly as Emily and Shiju appeared behind them. Shiju holding Marawen in his grasp holding her by her hair dragging her a long with him. The site enraged Arwen she forsaking Kairi and Lilian running to her sisters side. Emily releasing Shiju's restraints, forcing him on Arwen. The two battled for what seemed to last forever, but in the end Arwen failed she getting thrown from Shiju's final attack he about to strike her down, but Arwens what would be final words shook him from Emily's control, enough to make him stagger back he starting to break free of her emotional restraints he not able to distinguish who was friend or foe attacking Miyuki Ryuki and Emily. The three withdrawing leaving the five girls to deal with him. As he went to attack Arwen again she grabbed him holding onto him tightly the magical energies in his body starting to burn her, she not caring holding onto him. Until he slowly started calming down, his injuries making him black out, the armor scalding hot to the touch. Arwen removing every part of it, not caring about the burns on her hands.

With Shiju back in there hands and resting, Arwen, Mars, and Luna. Went to finally confront Zenatasha one last time and find out why she had done this. They broke into the keep fighting the elite once more, Sakura facing off against Marawen, Ryuki against Luna, and Miyuki against Arwen. Luna somehow find a way to best Ryuki, wielding Shadowlight for the first time to strike the girl down, thus ending Ryuki. Marawen and Sakura fought magic with magic, each throwing constant waves of energy at the other, but in the end Marawens logic one out again defeating Sakura and moving on to Zenatasha. Arwen and Miyuki fought tirelessly, each not giving an inch. The battle lasting for hours Lasting until Zenatasha, Marawen, and Luna finished there conversation. The two of them finally stopped fighting each with distaste for the other, but with Zenatasha explaining her actions, Mars realized that she wasn't an enemy and was only preparing for things to come...Alexander had lost his mind, and his people were suffering. Death was on the rise, and was about to over shadow Alexander and take his power. If successful, there realm would become part of the Shadowrealm forever.

With this new knowledge Haminaioshi sent for Shiju once more.
