he Chronicles of Madenu: Creation of Orelius [Original Story] This story is a newly created story based on medieval legends and wars and some Warcraft story elements, but much more fantastic than the legends.. Have fun reading NOTE: This story must be understood from the introduction to the last chapter of "Creation of Orelius" Next Part is "The Middle Ages" This is not a story that children will fuly understand, only for adults and teens can this story be undrstood easily. You can also read the almost complete story in The Helper Forums  Essay Introduction Long ago, tens of thousands of long ages from today, the Three Gods of Creation created a mystical planet in the outer rim of the Garnth Galaxy, the third largest galaxy in the whole universe. The planet is 8 times more larger than our earth. There the gods created three vast and mystical continents separated from vast oceans far deeper than the deepest parts of our Earth. There were huge mountains, vast open plains to wage war and the gods also created deep forests home to more than a hundred thousand species of animals in it. They also created a select few creatures wiser than humans, but stronger than any human living in the planet. The humans lived in another continent while the mystic creatures lived in another continent that is the largest of the three. The continent of Arctica was the smallest but the most desolate and the coldest of all the continents, located in the planet' s polar caps. Then the gods' last creation was the kingdoms of each race, whether good or evil, for the gods know that if the races had no kingdom to live with, their kind will be crushed easily by their enemies. The gods gave each race gifts and power and freedom, except knowledge. Then the gods finally gave a strong commandment to each race that exsists: "Each race shall never worship the rival gods of the Three Gods of Creation". For if they worship those gods, the world will be torn apart by chaos by the Seven Gods of Evil. The gods abandoned the planet and named it at last planet Orelius. Then the gods went away from the galaxy in peace to tend for other galaxies. Before the gods named the planet, they named the three continents by size: Largest - Lithonosis Second Largest - Ethnosia Smallest - Arctica Each race tinkers to explore their lands. But one race had the power to expand their kingdoms the quickest and can develop knowledge, and can learn faster than humans. They were the Lithonosians, a race of powerful creatures that can be as skillful as humans and can make even fare more advanced technology for use in battles. Lithonosians are ant-like creatures with four hands and two large feet to show their finesse in the Lithonosian arts of war given by one of the three gods. Lithonosians often stand and seldom walk like our ants. They are very crafty and can even create hollow cities called Lithocities, cities built inside a huge mountain with an enter/exit gate at the base of the mountain. Also they can build their largest cities called Lithokingdoms or cities build on the surface of a mountain. They were the Lithonosians' greatest cities and assets. Lithonosis is the most mountainous continent of Orelius and also containing the widest grass plains and the tallest mountains. There was no war between the races... until 5 ages or 22,000 years later since creation. The races the Gods created are not equally created, for each race must have unique capabilities and powers, also with advantages and weaknesses to be much more unique than others. Lithonosians - A crafty race that looks like Ant-Humanoids that can fight with up to four melee weapons with four arms for destructive power. Lithonosians depend on the high landforms and most especially Forests for their life, economy and even their religion as lithonosians. Lithonius, the second God of Creation and god of Land, created mainly Lithonosians and Lithonius is the wisest god of all the three. Lithonosians are nature-friendly creatures. They can reach up to 9 feet in height and almost a huge amount of strength in their body. Lithonosians are immune to almost all magic, making them more powerful. They are very creative and can also have a lifespan of 125,000 years, making them the race that has the second longest lifespan, with the Arachides as the first. Emperors rule their race and Emperors are so powerful that he can rule and control all Lithonosian-touched objects like territories, countries and even a whole continent. Lithonosians advance quickly in technology, quicker than the rest. Arachides - A strong race with a body structure that of a spider only it has a Scorpion tail as the gods created. They are very strong and it takes 5 Lithonosians to take one Arachide down and kill it. Arachides build "Tunnel Chambers" as their cities and they build Colonies as their Capital Base. Arachides are severly powerful and can produce more quickly than Lithonosian women. Unlike lithonosians where they give birth instantly Arachides lay eggs and nurture it until maturity. Arachides also have 2 hands. One for the sword and one for the Tower Shield. Arachides are less crafty than lithonisians and slowly advance in technology. Arachides are ruled by leaders called Doomlords which have the capability to live more than 1 million years and can even rule the whole of Orelius. The race excels in also spinning webs that destroy their enemies. An arachide can live as long as 223,500 years, making it the longest lifespan of all races. Humans - A common race but seldom makes war with other races. Humans are quite fragile and are useless against the mighty Lithonosians or Arachides. Humans live in cities in the continent of Ethnosia, a more peaceful continent covered in vast plains and wide rivers. Humans also are divided into factions. The Snowwarrior faction is a group of human soldiers in the colder parts of Ethnosia. The Ethnosian Vanguard are the humans that build cities to defend central Ethnosia where there are only plains and lacking mountains, which gives more field of view. Humans are vigilant and keep guard of their territory. Their rivals are the Tuphenites just east of ethnosia. Humans cannot use magic in the first ages. Humans can live up to 200 years, the shortest of all lifespans of other races. Humans can reach heights of only 4-6 feet in height. Tuphenites - The only race that has the ability to fly. Like Arachides, Tuphenites lay eggs and nurture them to maturity. Tuphenites are crafty but not as crafty as lithonosians. Tuphenites live in the west of Ethnosia but moved to the eastern side due to powerful winds that can blow them off. They build cities called Tuphenite Caverns inside mountains or beneath plains. Since then, the Tuphenites began disturbing the humans. Tuphenites attack in the air but they are very vulnerable to land and can be easily killed by snipers. Tuphenites live only up to 600 years. They fly fast but their weight is light. Their height only reaches up to 5 feet but their wingspan can reach up to 9 feet which makes them fly up to an altitude of 8,000 feet, making their powerful air-raids inevitable. Barnothides - A race like a standing beetle. They can talk like humans and can even build smaller lithocities. Barnothides are masters of imitation since they imitate to succeed. The Arachides finally made the Barnothides as their powerful ally in the first war of Orelius. They are the greatest enemy of the Elves and also the fastest to produce, making a female produce up to 34 barnothides a month. But they live only up to 250 years and are very fragile than humans. They only have a height of 4-4.5 feet and only depend on basic weapons of their allies to win a war. Elves - Wise creatures not too powerful but they can use magic. Elves excel in using bows and arrows and often live in top of trees to prevent grievous wars. They seldom wage war until their army is complete. Elves live in the southern tip of Ethnosia, called Manowood, a dense forest with a thick canopy and a lot of elves. Elves use only common magic such as Ice or Fire, since the gods only limited the use of magic to each race. Only wizards use all kinds of magic. They never waged war with the Arachides until in the 9532th age of Orelius. Elves are not that crafty but they are the closest allies of the Lithonosians, for elves cannot easily be corrupted by evil. Elves stand as tall as 6 feet in height and most elves are women. They can live up to 22,000 years of lifespan, 7 times much shorter than lithonosian lifespan. Dwarves - A race of strong dwarven people and miners. They are masters of mining and are more independent than Arachides, but not more than the lithonosians. Dwarves only excel in mining and melee battles. They often wield axes or halberds used for short battles that last up to 3 days. Dwarves live only up to 400 years. Dwarves help the Humans and Elves often and they help for the offense against the Tuphenites which fly to raid their cities. Dwarves can reach heights up to 3-4 feet in height. These races the Gods created are not equally created as said above. These races now have something in common after thousands of ages.... War. Chapter 1: The First Rebellion and the First War The Lithonosian's capital city of Piocese was the largest known city in the 5th age to the middle ages. The lithonosians used it as their home base and their greatest asset for war. Piocese even has a Lithocity at the base of the mountain where all of their resources were processed to many weapons or their food, like a miscellaneous factory. The eastern summit is Piocese's location. Then the Lithonosians created the 1st Legion to secure their kingdom and expand it. Expansion of their kingdom was long and hard. And one day in the month of April as their summer, they decided that they should have a ruler for their race. Their rulers are called Emperors since their land was too large to maintain. Thrak'Feroth was their first emperor. He is a business-minded lithonosian with government skills. After 2 years the Emperor added a Prince and a Royal Guard for the Royal Family to build up. Prince Heliloth was the first with the Emperor's cousin Corelli as the First Royal Guard in lithonosian history. After a few years there was an unknown strife between the lithonosians and a mystic race, called the Arachides, the first enemy of the lithonosians. The Arachides just made a new territorial kingdom just west of Lithonosis. Arachides are like Spiders with Scorpion tails for better and contagious defense. Arachides started building territories just 5 years ago. This is now considered as the first Rebellion between races. The Doomlord Entanious worshipped the Gods of Evil, the greatest enemy of the Gods of Creation. Entanious was the most evil of all creatures until the middle ages took place. Entanious then made a master army that even the Gods of Creation did not foresaw before the birth of Orelius. The master army crushed many of the lithonosian cities under Emperor Thrak'Feroth. But there was one army that they cannot crush, the 1st lithonosian Legion. The legion prepared for the arrival of Entanious' army. The legion now waged the very first war in Orelius' history. "So, the Arachides are our first enemy" said the emperor. "We shall not lose this war. Defeat is a nightmare that haunts us tomorrow, so do not falter. The gods have given us the power to wage war and to make victory. We will not lose the chance to win this war". The Emperor's words toughened the hearts of a thousand lithonosian soldiers, increasing determination to achieve victory. Most lithonosians were still faint hearted but ready for the battle. After a few hours of preparation, in the horizon comes the Arachides and Entanious itself. The lithonosians were afraid of Entanious and his large army of Arachides, each bearing impalers, halberds and tough shields made of adamant and steel. "Heliloth, my son, you must help the lithonosians to win this war. Fight in the battlefield. I sense your will is strong" said the emperor. These words made Prince Heliloth come towards the central flank of the legion. The legion only had 100,150 troops and the arachides had almost the same number which is 100,000. Then in the midst of the plains the Lithonosians and Arachides clashed towards war. Hours of sword-clashing, bow-firing, cannon-shooting things decreased the soldiers of each army one by one. Until the arachide army only had 1000 troops, Entanious ordered a retreat to his Arachides. "Retreat, this invasion was a faliure. You time will come lithonosians, After a few years you will experience the full power of Evil itself." With a few troops Entanious fled and came back to his territories. The Emperor got worried after the war but still victurious. The Emperor realized that Entanious' words was indeed true. The greatest battle of the ancient ages is about to begin.... ---------------------------------------- This story deserves to being understood by readers, I've worked on this story from start to finish...

OK: Continues  Chapter 2: The New Order Thrak'Feroth, having seen the aftermath of the first war, established more and more territories towards the west, east and even in the northern regions, except in the Far West of lithonosis. The emperor then created and established a new order of the lithonosians called the Prime Council. Ruled by Supreme Ministers, the crafty lithonisian type, the Prime Council is a testament to the neverending development of the lithonosian race. As the more progress the lithonosians make, the more enemies and the more allies they make. The Arachides, now returned from years of idleness caused by the loss of Entanious' battle in the first war. The Prime Council is commonly called 'The New Order' in these ancient times of the sixth age. The Council's objective is to watch over the lithonosians. They can even wage war with the Emperor's command. The city of Piocese itself was the place where the Council Palace can stand. Piocese became a gothic, bustling metropolis after thousands of years since the First War. Menedil was the name of the Supreme Minister of the Prime Council. Crafty but kind, he always is busy and does prefer to be in groups to maintain the council. Suddenly, in a meeting the Emperor Thrak'Feroth joinedthe meeting, and after, made a conversation to Menedil personally. "You are wise, and always you never let yourself down." said Thrak'Feroth, now at the age of twenty-one thousand years old. "But, always remember that being a Supreme Minister requires patience and knowledge. Know what I said after you were hailed as a minister. "Leaders must not be arrogant. Their arrogance will be their undoing." Menedil carefully listened to him one time in the night, when people are about to sleep. The winds blew coldly over Piocese's stone skyscrapers and halls made of olden stone. For a while, Menedil thinks of new but good plans to overthrow Entanious in a brutal way. The next morning, outside the halls of the Council Palace, Menedil met the Emperor once again in the palace courtyard. "He's making negotiations again. I wonder what he's up to", himself saying. "Exploration is what we lack now." the emperor said in front of fifteen men and the Royal Guard himself. "We must search for the other continent just beyond the Far West. I will give you five years to make the best equipment possible in assisting your journey towards the continent of Ethnosia and within that five years all of you will be trained as explorers" "Ethnosia, strange, but I knew about that continent rumoured to have wide plains and long beaches off it's coasts. It is also where some unknown races live and dwell." said a man in front of the emperor. The New Order goes farther and farther with every year and age that passes. Until at one time where it's progress came to a halt due -------------------- The story goes further w/ evry chapter. It gets more interesting. Read the rest of the chapters.. |
