The Forbidden War
The Akashic Library
Sitting in the middle of countless books and documents Akasha sat cross-legged while looking at the book in front of him. He had been here for 30 minutes already, and he has been looking at everything that related to Kalpa. He learned about every race their weaknesses and even their deepest secrets. When he first learned of Kalpa's races he wondered why there weren't any phoenixes.
It turns out that Kalpa never birthed any. Normally ever planet would be dominated by one race and would only have a few minor races. When Kalpa was first created it was much different than the others. Usually, it takes epochs before a planet to gain some form of sentience. This is what made Kalpa special, this planet was born with sentience. Although it couldn't talk or communicate at all really, it was still able to operate on more than pure instinct.
Every planet will eventually experience rebirth. This is the normal cycle of all celestial bodies whether it happens naturally or due to external influences. The only way a planet can break free of this is for them to have strong inhabitants. This is why celestial bodies cultivate a 'Give and Take' method. Meaning they give the opportunity for its inhabitants to become powerful which in turns makes the planet stronger.
Kalpa is a planet much older than anyone truly realizes. This planet was once a supreme world that existed for many epochs. Even after so much time this planet still couldn't escape its destruction. There was once a war that took place on Ancient Kalpa that caused its destruction. During this war there was hundreds of races. Powerless to change the outcome Ancient Kalpa was destroyed and eventually was born again.
The difference is that it retained a sliver of its consciousness. This was an anomaly amongst any Celestial body because after they face destruction then its consciousness is supposed to be destroyed too, that would allow a new one to form. Because Ancient Kalpa retained some of its sentience it was born with an absurd amount of energy.
Upon rebirth it made one final action before falling into a long slumber. Instead of making one ruling race, it recreated every race it could remember that participated in the war. Something that had never been done before.
After Akasha learned all of this he was shocked to say the least.
"To think I would learn all of this, simply because I wanted to see a phoenix. But this is truly interesting.... maybe I should wake up that sleeping consciousness" He said before focusing on the book in front of him again. The book was titled
'The Forbidden War.'
"Hmm, although I have read about the wars that happened years after Kalpa's creation. They all seemed rather minor, this seems much darker though." He said be for touching the book. When he did his mind was flooded with 80,000 years of information.
80,000 years ago, during was the beginning of the worst war Kalpa has experienced since its rebirth. During this time the inhabitants were finally moving towards peace and building structure. The top races were the exact same as they were today except there were Titans here too!
The titans were a race known for their massive size and barbaric traits. These people were battle crazed even more so that some Dragons. Titans looked similar to Humans aside from the fact they were naturally bigger, and some grew to be hundreds of meters. With their innate strength and adaptive capabilities similar to humans albeit much weaker they were one of the strongest races.
While the rest of Kalpa were moving towards peace and prosperity the Titans had just discovered a massive secret. Deep within the Titans homeland were some Heritage Trials. These trials served the purpose of purifying the Titan bloodline through battles. This has been a sort of tradition for many epochs.
Although this has been around for many years there had never been anyone to completely purify their bloodline. Well, that was until the previous King of The Titans completed this process. While the rest of the world was uniting the Titan King was in the midst of uncovering something that would change the course of their race forever.
The King of Titans spent a thousand years of battling withing the trials. After he completed the last trial his bloodline purity reached 100%. His size increased from 300 meters to a towering 600 meters. He was absolutely massive!
Thrilled in the new power he was experience he failed to notice a badge that was floating in the air. Unknowingly the badge started to shine and then a man formed. When the King of Titans finally noticed what was happening, he was shocked to see the man that was now sitting on a throne in front of him was even bigger than he was.
Seeing this he immediately knelt, no matter, in Titan culture size symbolized strength. The bigger a titan was then the more powerful they would be. When he saw the man sitting on throne he knelt out of respect.
Seeing this the figure was pleased. He nodded his head and then spoke.
"My descendant how are you?"
"D-descendant?" The king of Titans asked as he raised from his kneeling position.
"Yes, I am the First Titan to be born in the World of Kalpa. What you're seeing now is just a fragment of my consciousness."
Hearing this the King of Titans knelt once again.
"Greetings Ancestor!"
"Haha, no need for such formalities. I set up these trials specifically for this occasion. I've waited eons for one of my descendants to be worthy enough to uphold this mission of mine."
"A mission? Ancestor not to be rude, but I have no knowledge about any mission." The Titan King said
"Well, that's because you're the only person to ever make it this far. Tell me, what's your name child?" The Ancestor asked
"G-Galdorn" The King stuttered as he was still shocked about all of this. Being the current King of Titans, he knew that'd he would be the first to completely purify the bloodline. He thought gaining strength would be all there was to it so, him learning about some mission was a real shocker.
"Galdorn. What I am about to tell you is one of the darkest secrets of Kalpa. No one must know of this, and you must find a way to carry out your mission with discretion!" The ancestor said while analyzing Galdorn's reactions.
Hearing this Galdorn nodded his head and prepared himself for what was to come. He refused to show weakness in front of the ancestor.
'IM A TITAN IF THERE'S ANY PROBLEM, I WILL SETTLE IT HEAD ON!"
See this the Ancestor spoke out again
"Good. Now, there a couple things I must tell you. For starters I am not dead, and I have never died in the first place. During the second era of Kalpa all the top powerhouses had a big war. In that war pretty much all the leaders to the major races died. There were two others who survived besides me, but they are no longer around either." He took a moment to allow Galdorn to digest this information.
"A-ancestor if you're not dead then what happened to you?" It has been at least 2 epochs since the first few eras and learning that the first of your kind was still alive was something he couldn't grasp in a mere moment, so he asked the most logical question that came to mind.
[A/N: 1 epoch - Tens of millions of years.]
"After the war I recuperated and cultivated my strength along with the other two leaders. Once we reached a certain point, we decided to leave Kalpa. Before we left, I set these trials up for a much different purpose. I initially set this up in order to meet the one who had enough potential to become my personal disciple. But that all changed when we entered the vast expanse of space....
