After all of that happened in eternity, there was a massive war that was happening between the tela forces and the Way finders in the far east. War raged like a bush fire and both side had considerably wins and losses however this war would last for a long time. At the beginning only ordinary soldiers die however as war went on captain of high cultivation began to die.
The battlefield was filled with a stench of blood and dead bodies and the scene was eerie and there was a waste of weapons and inscription talisman weapons. There was signs of a massive destruction and the wild spirit beasts fled for their lives, therefore the massive mountain range was pretty empty leaving few terrifying sovereign based spirit beasts.
The two warring factions ceased for a moment to regroup and prepare to battle while treating their injured comrades. Now in the camp of the human beings, Path finders held an urgent meeting, in the far corner of the HQ top official of the Path finders called Reges and elders conveyed the meeting. Reges were on par with inner court elders of the finders but were inferior to Paramount elders but still were present. A Paramount elder said in a deep voice " I shall not waste everyone time with the unnecessary stuff but I will go to the main purpose of this meeting, I believe that everyone has heard the Tela empire has an heir now and they are on the central plains celebrating for his birth and also naming." The room was dead silence and the atmosphere was heavy but still he went on " these beasts have oppressed us and taken many of our brethren as slaves and even some are treated worse than animals therefore I and senior brother William have come up with an idea to cut off the empire horn while it is at the highest" " What do mean senior chi" everyone asked with puzzled expressions apart from Senior William.
Chi smiled and said " kill the royal bloodline and capture the newborn prince." " Hiss! Hiss!" many could not help but gasp sharply. In simple terms, destroy the current central power and putting the next in line in bondage, this was too crazy because every being knew that Tela were rulers of the world or known in other terms the vitae realm. This was the highest treason and this would lead to massive turbulence in the realm.
But seriously, who could blame them for this conspiracy as they were threated by their own cousin race Tela. In the ancient times these two were in good terms and would help each other, it was during the great conquest of the realm things began to turn for the worst. Both tela and human had 100 stellamounds rulers each who were apex of this realm, during that conquest that the both races initiated the battle to unify the realm, Tela stellamounds became many around 300 surpassing the humans and thus like the saying goes " winner is the king and loser is the bandit" thus became the situation.
In those days after decline of humanity, mystic creatures rose against the then mighty Tela and were known the levans. Who had a strong physique and a terrifying bloodline, they were at the top of the myriad races. As such they were proud beings and could not submit like other races to the Tela whether by diplomacy or by brute strength. They wrecked and caused havoc in the realm without caring what the rulers would say.
They conquered and recapture half the realm and theirs rules were relative good compared to Tela. " Strong takes all" that was their prime rule, every creature was happy while Tela prime rule was " Honor the Tela bloodline and you shall be raised to the top"
A massive battle arose that lasted 500 years and devastated the realm for centuries later. Tela won but they paid a lot for the victory, more than half stellamounds were either killed or injured. They were forced to retreat to recover for 5000 years while levans sharply declined and hid themselves in the forbidden grounds.
At that time was an era of Great peace rest where no great wars rose from various factions. Humanity rose again and ruled the realm and during their reign diplomacy was the order of the day and fiends were destroyed and various sects that advocated the old rules. one thing that never changed is that storm is looming in the horizons and every factions knew this.
Tela began to make their move and first sent a delegate to the humans for peace talks but that was the true intentions at all. Humans being the kind hearted sent out a squad that included royal court elders and fifth prince. The meeting went as planned but at the end of it Tela attacked and captured the squad but killing all their guards and declared that man should surrender their power and reigns of power or else they will met with force of tela.
Man did not listen but used their then tech to tap power of cosmos to fight Tela, it was a child's play for Tela to defeat man since the captured squad were brutal slain and their heads sent to the humans capital as warning shot. This enraged the king and the entire race, factions and sects came together both friends and foes alike under the banner of destroy Tela for good.
Warships were deployed in the Battle of central plains, many join in the war but lastly were defeated. But not in battle, as many would have it since princess consort cheated on the royal crown prince by allowing the golden eyed Tela squad in the city and even the palace. Royal bloodline was destroyed and the capital went in flames as man did not cultivate then, sorrowful cries were held and blood was flowing like a river. streets were filled with corpses either burnt or beheaded.
Having lost center of power and chain of command, the human army turned back fleeing like stray dogs but were caught at the middle and were killed. Thus Tela became the new rulers and subjected every race to slavery till today.
An inner elder recalled all this since the tale passed from mouth to mouth and even scrolls from generation to the next thus the two related race had a deep feud. No one dared to speak and then Senior William spoke " let's continue with the plan and no one is to leak it for that everyone must swear with their essence blood and chi as witness and also with heaven dao involve that no one will betray the course"
The next moment all of them took an oath called heaven thunder oath, the sky rumbled and thunder was heard clapping 81 times establishing the oath. Such occasion was rare and marked a very important oath even Tela knew this and the Telan army was alert.
Later that night 15 figures sneaked out of HQ and even the range and were heading to central plains with one purpose and aim. They muttered to themselves " hit the iron while it is hot, they deserve what is coming for them and it is about time for them to taste their own medicine" Their eyes were bloodshot and were covered with endless hate and anger.
Now in the 25 great forbidden grounds of the realm, for a long time the grounds were silence and tranquilly but for the last 3 centuries that Tela came into their very peak state, there has been a lot of movement and the ancient levans beasts were about to rise. Dragon race were rising in the north opposing the Tela and many other races wanted freedom.
The prime forbidden grounds, a mighty army was lining together in the sky in a formation and above them elders were chatting happily. The strange thing about them was they had dragon forms but were thicker and bolder, their heads were like saber tooth lions and had two heads. The most prominent of them were their ink-like eyes that had outline of goldish. These were levans. One of the elder said " it better work so that we may have our revenge against those dammed Tela" Others merely nodded and they went on with their conversions.
