This chapter will be short and will describe worldbuilding, the limits of magic, and provide a brief description of the main characters.
Let's start with some worldbuilding.
This world is called Tresacre and was created by a genderless god who loves this world and will do anything to ensure the safety of their children.
Now, let's talk about magic:
There are six elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Light, and Dark.
Each sentient being possesses two elements at birth, and rarely, a being with only one element can be born. They will have a higher mastery than others and will reach the pinnacle of their abilities much faster.
Magic consumes mana, a substance that is plentiful in the world. Mana can be infused with an element based on its surroundings. For example, Fire mana can be easily found in volcanos, while Water mana can be found in the depths of the oceans.
Magic has a certain radius and cannot be controlled if it's more than one meter away from the caster. However, if the caster possesses the element of Wind, they can expand their reach up to five meters.
Magic takes form through imagination. For example, if the caster wants to create a fireball, they need to visualize a ball of fire.
That's all I can share with you, dear reader. Now that I have explained a bit about mana and worldbuilding, let's end this chapter with a description of the main characters.
Hope: A young boy who comes from the modern world. When he was 9 years old, he accepted an email from an unknown sender and was transported to another world. He possesses a gift that he doesn't remember. He has spent five years in this world.
He is quite childish, clumsy, and naive. He believes he is the protagonist of this world, and he tends to see everything that comes his way as favorable. He can be quite hopeless and foolish at times.
Kurashi: Hope's best friend and the first person he met after coming to this world. Kurashi is older than Hope by a few years. He serves as a teacher and guide to Hope.
I apologize, but it seems that I have been instructed to stop writing. This marks the end of the Introduction. Please enjoy reading the first chapter of The Journey.
