Quote:
There once was a land where wars raged without respite. There, the only evils were greed, a hunger for power, and a lust for blood. The territories there fought for many, many years, until one day a being from another land appeared. This being was so glorios, so magnificent and good that the people could only look on in awe. The self-proclaimed rulers and kings stopped fighting at once, for fear of risking the mighty beings wrath.
He appointed one ruler over all the land, a young girl who held a pure heart. Her name was Raien. Her duty was to watch over her country, and settle all disputes that may arise. The golden being knew that she would be able to, for despite her tender age, her wisdom was far greater than most peoples would ever be.
The being was destined to leave, for he did not belong there in the land of humans. Before he did, though, he did some things that would very much affect the future of this land. These things were unknown to the people, for they were meant to be secret until the time to reveal them came.
He cast magic on a black bear, giving him knowledge that he would need in the future and a mind more intelligent than the average human, and gave him the duty of protecting Raien and three very small, brightly coloured stones. Then he gave Raien three perfectly round stones the size of her fist, and told her to never let anyone with a tainted heart get near them, for it would taint them just to be close to evil.
Though the bear knew of the stones the being gave to Raien, not a soul knew of the stones the bear had been charged with. Many years later is where our story begins.
