Chapter 1
The Nepteous Village (1/1/1990)
Far beyond the known lands, there was a forgotten place called Nepteous Village, where everything — houses, roads, even the wells — was made of dust. The air was dry, and the people were poor and weak. They had no king, no leader, and no hope. Yet, among them lived a boy named Camelio, only eight years old, but stronger than anyone else because of his endless training. Every morning, he lifted heavy stones and ran across the dusty fields until his feet bled.
One silent night, Camelio was sleeping when loud, disturbing voices echoed through the village. He woke up, tired and annoyed, and stepped outside to see what was happening. The wind was cold, and the moon was red. Suddenly, a dark portal appeared in front of him — swirling like smoke and lightning. Before he could run, it pulled him in.
Camelio screamed as he fell through the endless void. Then, in the middle of the darkness, he saw a glowing staff floating in the air. It shone with five colors — blue, red, brown, white, and black — each representing a power: Water, Fire, Rock, Wind, and Gloom. When Camelio grabbed it, the staff filled him with strength.
He returned to Nepteous Village, and everything changed. The dust turned into gold, the wells overflowed with clean water, and the people became strong. Inside the portal, Camelio found mountains of diamonds and treasures. The village became rich and powerful.
But power never lasts forever. When the staff’s energy faded, the portal reopened — this time, it swallowed the entire village. The people screamed as they were dragged into a dark prison made of obsidian, where no light could enter. Nepteous Village was gone, trapped forever in the shadows of its own greed.
