The sounds of feet slowly coming up up a stairwell, a cloak flittering behind, with prayers mumbled with each step. Coming up against a fork in the road, the figure turns right, seeing a dimly-lit room. They walk inside, seeing the small child curled up on their mat with some of the younger children. A soft giggle leaves them as they go to put out the candle that was lighting the room. Doing so, they leave the room, not noticing the young child getting up to follow them. As they got to a secluded area of the monastery, they started to pray and praise one of the main gods and goddesses of the lands.

A joyous sound in their voice led the young child to them. Each step towards the room was met with pain; burning, searing pain. As if something or someone did not want them to walk into this room. A yelp from them got the attention of the room's occupant, turning around to see the small child attempt to enter. Raising their arms in a way to tell them no, it didn't translate over well. The child keeps on persisting, with glowing burns starting to show themselves. It's painful to watch, but the figure can't stop them, not when they are so determined to get into the room and fight to do so.

But the glowing burns do not resemble burns, the resemble... a circular object, like that of an orb. As soon as they finally step in, they give a blood curdling shriek, pain making it much worse than it looked. A voice resounds after the shrieking end, a gentle yet commanding one, telling the child to lay down. Three lines are said out as they foretold.

"The white prophet will be born.

A shield will guide.

A time of war will begin."

Promptly such, the room shows what the world will become if worse comes to worse. And yet, it pertains to everything happening today, everything from the beginning to the end. With a shaken body, they nod, understanding what they saw. Everything was coming by so fast that they couldn't react to the sounds of follow clergymen running towards them.

The last thing the child sees before passing out is the glow upon their hand and what seemed to be long, hair that never seemed to end.

Our world hangs on a string everyday, but we do not see it. Some are granted the ability to see it, and sometimes, are given a chance to create a new fate.

Perhaps the gods are on their side, maybe luck rides with them. But we do envy those who change rather than try to do so ourselves.

Well, if you were given a chance to change everything; resolve uanessacry conflicts, end corruption in royalty, and give the world a better look in the eyes of all the gods of this realm, but all at a cost of your life.

Would you do it? Or would you try to escape your fate?

I know my answer.

So uh, Hiya! I haven't written anything on here in such a long time. I know the story part is incredibly short, but it's kind of an introduction to Divine Lost, and it's world. Chapters will be longer, I promise. I plan on having this be an SYOC, so information pertaining to each continent is listed above, along with a form if you're interested. Please either PM me or leave your form in a review!

I have a lot planned for this, including new classes for some of the regions. You'll see them in due time.

Thank you for reading what little was written as a pre-cursor!
