LAND: Long ago, before any mortals came about, the islands were all one. Basically, only winged gods lived among it. All sections of the island were sorted by the basic elements. (Water, Fire, Earth, Air) and all thrived well. One day, the land split into many fractures, and many of the gods were lost to time. There were roughly 40 survivors of the land splitting, and 22 of those survivors were chosen to rule over the remaining gods. With that, a few of the gods chose their lands to rule over. Then, once the mortals were created, the gods moved up into the sky, watching over their beloved mortals. The remaining 18 gods are lost to time, unknown by the mortals.

Cause of Solar Eclipse: When the siblings Lunakros and Solarion were young, their mother was the one to move both the Sun and the moon. Every four or so years, their mother would create an eclipse just for her children. After the division of the earth, their mother did not survive. After becoming the new guardians of the Sun and moon, they do the same to honor their mother.

Cause of Lunar Eclipse: It is said that this is done to mourn those who had died in battle, hence the reddish orange. True, but it is also in hopes to capture the attention of her beloved mortals, Nuri and Munkir, in hopes they understand her message of: "I miss you."

Cause of Northern Lights: Northern lights are caused by Vento, Goddess of the Arts, and Solarion, God of the Sun. Every few years, when Lunakros brings the violet moon, Vento takes strands of the Sun, recolors them, and paints across the sky as a way of showing mortals their love for them by creating a beautiful display.

Origin of Nymphs: Nymphs were created by Aureo, a demigod king (Son of a god and mortal queen) who had love for all land and sea. He created the nymphs as caretakers for all forms of land, and maintain peace in nature as much as possible.

Origin of Mentalians: Mentalians originate from both Atakiri, the goddess of war (Hence weapon attachment) AND Myntera,(Hence jewelry attachment) goddess of wealth. Which involved the art of tying a soul to a certain object. They originally created these beings as servants, caretakers or soldiers in battle. Eventually, Myntera made the decision to allow mortals to have the luxury of Mentalians, and let them live a life they choose.
