Chapter 1 - where's the solution

A forest completely burned, with no trace of life, until a huge, black-haired man with dark, black eyes emerged from the fog. He wore imposing black armor and a black robe, and a huge, black sword, as black as coal, hung on his back. He opened his black eyes, which were like an abyss, and said in a low, frowning voice charged with hatred, "I am coming, you devil."

**5000 years before**

Humanity faced a perilous situation that could lead to its end, as the mother phoenix, Phaedon, laid her egg on Earth—an egg she lays only once every billion years, for humanity knows what that means: utter destruction. Humanity turned to their last refuge, the symbol of resolve, the great white tiger *khaszan*. He was persuaded by their pleas and gathered the will of all that was, is, and will be, by order of the three sacred spirits, and offered it to newborn twins: *sin_mith*, with white hair and golden eyes, and his twin sister, *rin_feth*, with black hair and violet eyes.

The twins grew up working together: Sin, with his pure and kind heart, and Ren, with his ruthless nature. Days passed until the time came for the twins to embark on their journey towards the phoenix egg...!

Anyway, the twins started and along the way they met many people, learned about all the races on Earth, saw the evil ones and the good ones, and saw people living and others dying.

Before reaching their goal, on a cold, snowy night, the brothers sat by the fire, chatting normally, until Ren suddenly stood up and asked Sin sharply: "What do you think of the phoenix's fate?"

Sin with a hint of confusion: "what do you mean his fate , it's just throw him out off Earth"

Ren : "but...his flames it's going to reach us even if we... throw him away - right..? "

Sin : "yeah but it's the best way possible,do you have any ideas that's better..... twin?!.."

Rin with a smirk : "I mean yeah what about... Kill him..."

A deathly silence fell over the place. The twins exchanged glances.

Between Sin's shock and Ren's murderous coldness, the brothers' desires clashed, and a battle ensued that lasted for two days and nights, ending... To be honest, the legends and books don't mention the outcome, but it's certain the mission was successful. However, the brothers vanished without a trace, having gone to a deserted island where they married and gave birth to a lineage with unique and different abilities called the Ceres. Their descendants lived in isolation.
