Ellenári was magnificent. It was three times as big as any human castle, and twice as magnificent. The leaders from each of the six tribes communed her and met with their king, The Lord of Order.
Drake, the last king of Ellúndari was a peaceful ruler. He took into consideration each of the six elements' concerns, and made perfect decisions to please all of them. When it came time for his wife, Ellena, a beautiful warrior from Aureas, to give birth, she gave birth to twin boys. The first time any Lord of Order has had two children in recorded history.
The first twin, Drakath, was the one Drake favored the most, as he would grow up to be the next Lord of Order. Darika, the second twin, was favored by Ellena, who saw that both of the twins were great young men.
Drakath was always fun, and happy, and was noble of heart. Darika was a downer, and rarely was made happy. He believed that if he couldn't have what he wanted, no one should.
When their father died at their age of 17, they didn't know what to do. Drakath was crowned the Lord of Order, and celebrations were held all over Ellúdari. Thousands came to celebrate his coronation, but he only truly wanted to see his brother.
Darika had gone to the Outlands, beyond any of the six realms, in his rage over not becoming the Lord of Order. He spent years learning the art of the dark magic, and quickly lost himself to the Chaos of the Outlands. With complete control over Chaos itself, he named him the Chaos Lord.
Many years after, when Drakath had almost forgotten about his twin, he heard news that chaos was spreading across the land. The Ellúdarians blamed Drakath for this, said that he was not worthy of being the Lord of Order. Little did they know.
When Drakath finally found Darika, he had turned a cave into his underground layer. Drakath confronted his twin, and they had an amazing duel. Darika lost, Drakath locked him away in that awful cave, the seal only to be opened by legendary warriors of each of the elements.
These warriors, The Chosen Ones, would come thousands of years from now. They would be the guardians of the seal, it only being opened if they each activate the seal together.
But Darika placed a curse on the prophecy of the Chosen Ones. He changed it so The Chosen Ones would be told that the seal keeping him locked away is weakening, and they would need to to close it together. They would fight through countless enemies, and would be faced with three trials before they could "strengthen the seal." Drakath did not know this, and disappeared from this realm, thinking it would be in the hands of The Chosen Ones.

Fast forward about five hundred years, and the events that the Prophecy foretold have begun to happen. The Prophecy:
When fire rains on the desert sands;
And a raging storm tears across the lands;
Six warriors from Ellúndari
Must arrive at Ellenári.
When an endless winter braves the clouds;
And night has settled across the crowds;
Six warriors from Ellúdari
Must arrive at Ellenári.
When thundering rains have awoken the dead;
And kept children from their bed;
Six warriors from Ellúndari
Must arrive at Ellenári.
~~~~~~~~~
The tribes have become furious. Clouds of ash and fire have begun to cover the land of Saxíns; a unrelentling winter has settled across the skies of Aureas; and storms of rain and blood have been relentless over the land of Nox.
The Saxans blamed the Ingesians for causing their volcanoes to erupt towards Saxíns; The Ignesiàns are furious that they were accused of such crimes. The Aureans, normally peaceful, are angry at their age-old rival, the Noctans, for causing a never-ending winter. The Noctans are accusing the Oceanians of causing this bloodied rain to terrorize their land; the Oceanians say they would not abuse their powers to stoop so low. All of the five tribes are blaming the Tempans for the terrible twisters and storms that are raging across all of Ellúndari. The nomads are furious about this accusation, and have begun to throw threats to the others.
The high council of Ellenári knew these events would pass, and had been waiting for the signs that The Chosen Ones had arrived. After waiting ten long, plagued years, the finally found The Chosen Ones. They sent each of them a letter telling them to come to Ellenári, as the fate of Ellúndari depended on it.
