Spirit Shards: The Story.

Many years ago in a small galaxy, planets were being formed by the gods. They weaved their magic, creating their perfect worlds from nothing. The gods would rule over their respective planets, creating their ideal worlds in their image and then they’d command their people as they liked.

One planet in particular; Fides Humus, is where this story will focus. Fides Humus was created by two gods, Acerbus The God of Darkness and Aduro The God of Light. The two gods worked together, creating the only planet out of all the gods that was able to sustain life. Acerbus created night and Aduro created day. The planet was beautiful, magical forests, beautiful unique animals, rivers and seas, everything needed to hold the life of Man.
Finally the two Gods knew their planet was ready for humans.

Aduro wanted to create humans with freewill, she wanted to watch them move about their lives and live in peace. Acerbus on the other hand wanted humans to be used for war, to battle the other gods and take over their planets. The two could not agree and it tore a rift between their once inseparable bond.
They started to fight and in the end Acerbus stole half of Fides Humus casting it into complete darkness. He created a tree of life which would drop seeds on the first day of every month, the seeds would merge into the soil and from them man would grow. Only males would be born from the seeds as Acerbus had no use for females. They would rise from the ground for the sole purpose of serving their God of Darkness in war.
Aduro was left with the other side, complete daylight for every hour of the day. She created humans with her magic, giving them the abilities to reproduce with one another, and do whatever it is they wanted in life.
In between these two sides was one large strip of twilight.

The two Gods lived as enemies on the same planet for Thousands of years; they’d start the odd war over fickle things but nothing as big as what was to come, these smaller wars would cause a few natural disasters per year. Eventually the population of their people started to grow and ultimately contact between Aduro’s people and Acebus’s people became more constant.

One day a young lady from the side of light met in the strip of twilight with a warrior from the side of darkness. They had fallen in love and prayed to their Gods to let them be together. This enraged Arcebus and he damned both humans to death, killing them on the spot without any hesitation. Aduro was not happy, only she was allowed to decide the fate of her creations, that was the agreement between them both, and thus the biggest war of the Gods began.

The war lasted 100 years, God against God and the Humans from the Light against the Humans from the Dark. As the fight went on, the twilight strip began to crack but it was left unnoticed. Over the years the crack would get bigger and bigger and eventually all the pressure resulted in explosions from within the Planet, separating the light from the dark completely.
The gods stopped fighting as they watched their creation destroy itself because of them, they both rushed to their respective sides, trying with all their might to push the pieces together. If the planets didn’t survive, they too would die as they had merged their spirits within to give the planet life.

As the Gods pushed against their side of the planet, their physical beings started to fuse with Fides Humus. They were eventually consumed by it, creating two new worlds. A planet of darkness and a planet of light but not before 8 magical shards exploded from their forms, landing on the planets and burring themselves each in a secret location.
Earth, Fire, Water, Thunder, Air, Light, Dark and Energy.

---

500 years have passed since the event and the humans on both the light and dark planets have lived on without their Gods. Praying to their respective statues every day hoping that one day Acerbus and Aduro will come back to them.
The light Planet, which was renamed to Relucesco was blessed with the power of Magic and the Dark Planet, renamed Umbra was blessed with the power of warriors.
The Relucescians lived in peace, their planet flourished with the power of steam, they created kingdoms and villages and everyone lives as they pleased.

The men of Umbra on the other hand used the power of their Life tree, creating things from the cells of their planet, everything was connected, they made lighting from illuminating cells, houses and transport but they were not as advanced as the Relucescians. They did however manage to genetically engineer the life tree to create females... although it was rare that the tree would produce a female seed.

Each year on the 200th day, the anniversary of their Gods death, everyone from both Relucesco and Umbra would gather around their shrines for the festival of the Gods. They would bring offerings, play music and celebrate what their Gods had given them.
This year was different though, as 5 people from Relucesco and 5 people from Umbra would become the chosen ones, the ones to go on an amazing journey to find the Shards of the Gods.

They just didn’t know it yet.

Well you can be creative with the races, I'm leaving it open so people can have fun with their characters but because umbra is a planet of darkness the races would be more sinister like.

But for instance if you want some ideas: humans, orcs, trolls, halflings, dark elves (they're rare magic users), pixies. I'll allow genetically altered creatures (someone tampered with their DNA while in their seed or something) so yeah :D just go nuts, as long as it fits the planets theme.
