Chapter 1 - Chapter One (1)The Awakening

It's a radiant Sunday, with clear skies and the breeze has a slight chill, offering blips of reprieve From the blazing sun. But much higher above this azure blanket of our home Cracks begin to web across our solar system And ten (10) planets resonate with an air light while barely perceptible voices seem to weakly cry out - " Awaken! that which are chosen for a time such as this". Meanwhile, ten (10) unsuspecting teenagers are all swept away mysteriously to a white void, Where they can barely hear the voices calling out. They all see and recognize each other from college, but no one seems to be able to communicate with the others. The more they walk towards each other, The further apart they become, cementing the reality of this void in its truest sense. Distance, Time, Sound, Nothing seems to exist besides vast white emptiness all around. Finally, Sçoryn notices a still yet an anxious, commanding yet familiar voice " Be still look within without searching for you are the answer". And suddenly overcome with struck with an epiphany he understands everything but nothing at the same time. Its like when the word is at the tip of your tongue, but just won't come out. Immediately he sits and begins to meditate, focusing within himself causing the surroundings react in tandem, out of thin air 10 figures appear that only he seems to notice. " Welcome, breath of my body who has found a new star from which to shine, who's gravitas shall keep the family from scattering into eternal ruin". " What!?, are you talking to me?" Sçoryn Blurts out while unconsciously walking backwards. " Yes, Sun, the time unfortunately has arrived, where what was final is now ended, and the undone must be redone. The journey ahead is long but fear not because you will guide us all the transcendence, Farewell for no rest of my body, remember, you are always with you". Just like that Sçoryn is back at his table outside his home with his cuppa, soaking up some sun as he does every morning. " Did that religious happen?" He messages all his friends who he saw there, but no one seems to know what he's talking about. They all tease him and say he's daydreaming again, lost in a world of his own, making, oblivious to the difference between fantasy and reality. So with that, he brushes it off and write it off to not having fully woken up as yet. After finishing his morning ritual, he heads inside to take a shower and after undressing notices a strange chain around his neck. To his surprise, however, the chain seems real yet illusionary, he can clearly feel the cold steel gently resting on his chest, but it's completely unable to grab or even touch the chain. Stranger still the spherical pendant appears to be gently emanating, a warm, intoxicating glow while seemingly rotating at an incredible speed following a gentle hum. Helpless to investigate further he goes about his day just like any other, all the while feeling this weird, gentle pull towards something he can't explain. Now that the day is through, he snuggles into bed, wondering if this entirety has all just been a dream as he drifts off to sleep. To his shock, he finds himself back in that expensive void but this time with some weird kid right in front of him.
