《The Apex》Something Extra
Advertisement
Not a chapter. This was supposed to be the original synopsis, but got scrapped since I felt it was too long. Read if you want; it doesn't really affect anything and is more like an overview to the previous chapters if anything.
/////////
In the world known as Aerethin, where monsters and all manners of abominations roamed free, there existed an empire by the name of Imperia. This empire was renown throughout the land as being the greatest bastion of mankind that ever existed. It had riches and strength beyond comparison and guaranteed the peace and prosperity of humanity. At the apex of this mighty empire was a man known to all as Emperor Cyrus Alabast Imperia. Being the founder of the empire and a man of great power and charisma, he had everything man could ever desire. Fame, wealth, and unimaginable strength to dominate even the most vicious of creatures, he had it all. It was he who used his bottomless talent to unite humanity against the abominations of nature and it was he who still stood to safeguard the empire against any and all threats, becoming a hero and a bulwark that continues to protect mankind against any future threats.
But alas, nothing lasts forever, and even this man in all his glory could not withstand the test of time. As he laid on his deathbed, all his thoughts culminated into worry about the future of his beloved empire. Whether it will continue to prosper under his legacy or not was something he may never find out. And so, with such thoughts, the mighty ruler passed away.
His worries were proven true as his empire crumbled and segmented in the absence of his guidance, breaking apart completely. Internal strife and corruption ran rampant and the once prosperous empire of Imperia shattered and became no more.
As the millenniums passed even the name and legacy of this empire faded, becoming nothing more than a mere myth. It was at this time, hundreds of thousands of years after the fall, that an earth-rending quake erupted all across the world of Aerethin, bringing catastrophes wherever it hit. At the epicenter of this great calamity laid an ancient and forgotten tomb.

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
