The Sette Risonanze

When the world was still young there stands a paradise that gods and humans co-exist together through worship and wishes. The gods had made their duty to guide, teach, protect humanity from dangerous phantasmal beast that sees humanity as their meal in exchange for their faith, belief, and worship to empower them. Though there were many deities, only 8 stood out amongst the rest their names were:

Sultra the god of the sun, light, fire, and destruction.

Dreniva, the goddess of the moon, darkness, ice, and stars.

They ruled supreme over other deities for many years and as time went on slowly one by one each dividing began to fade until they all disappeared leaving humanity defenseless due to humanities advancement.

Gods and goddess depends on humanity to depend on them to live but as the humans slowly advance they became independent. However the gods didn't stop them from advancing despite they needed humanities belief worship to live.

The deities were very compassionate towards humanity so they could not have the heart to stop them for the gods believe humanity advance to defend for themselves.

Not long when the deities vanished reality and the world itself came unbalanced as it slowly started crumble and break until life became it new target. Humanity had tried and searched an answer to find a way heal their paradise as they were hunted by beast that fed on them as do so but none were able achieve it.

Until one day a strange man came and announced that he will choose 7 human that had the strongest soul aspects to lead and guide us to give our paradise balance that would last for 30 years, but after the next 30 years there must be another to take their place for another 30 years.

The humans were skeptical at first but they are desperate to the point that no longer care if they sacrifice 7 souls for 30 years for others. When the 7 strongest souls step forward they obtain a power that was within their souls and with this power they performed miracles that were similar to the gods. This power was known as soul aspects of monarchy.

Together they named as the Sette Risonanze were placed on the thrones made by the rest of humanity to show their gratitude and loyalty until their reign ended.

That was the start of the 1st reign 1st year January 1st of a new paradise called Jaden.

With the power they had unlock the 7 ruler shared this power to the rest of humanity to help them as they ruled. Not long factions began to rise it caused them to divide. And began to categorize themselves as: the King, Crown, Scepter, Cloak, Rings, Sword, the Shield.

Due to this, they 6 rulers sought the strongest Shield for order and stability amongst the people they rule but the Shield replied to them that he had no position to do so because other than the Shields they belong to them to rule. They cannot also give them they forces for an attack against the beast that threatens humanity but protection.

The Sette Risonanze blame amongst themselves for this calamity which brought no end till the Shield had enough ended the argument by announcing that he will let the Shields to enforce the law and brought order on all civilization but in exchange the other will do the Shield's duties.

The others agreed and were very satisfied with this arrangement.

With that decision the Shield lead his people to give the every aspects users discipline to maintain, laws to follow, punishment to wrong, and attention to watch the peace.
