The Demon Story Part 1

''Tarold wakes up in his locker after spending the weekend in there after Butch stuffed him in there. He gets help from a teacher who gets him out and he then sees the cool kid gang who are talking about their weekend. After Mike sees Tarold and bullies him, Tarold meets with Charlie, one of his only friends, and complains to him about how much Butch oppresses him. Charlie’s other friend Wilbur, who likes to mock Tarold about Butch, then comes and makes fun of how Tarold spend the weekend in his locker.''

''Tarold then walks to first period class, and sits through a painful class of Butch’s annoying delinquency. Butch bullies Tarold after the class, increasing Tarold’s anger. Once lunch comes, Tarold, Charlie, and Wilbur sit down at the table, but then Butch comes and starts bullying them and telling them to move. Tarold, however, holds his ground for long enough so that Moose to come over and protect Tarold from Butch’s wrath. Butch gets angry, but walks away and Tarold thanks Moose for his protection.''

''    After school, Tarold and his friends start to walk home, but Butch and his gang get in their way with the intention to beat them up since Moose won’t help them again. Tarold decides to stand up to Butch and they start to walk at each other, but then two portals open up behind each group. Tarold’s group gets sucked into a portal with a forest and giant mushrooms, while Butch’s gang gets sucked into a portal with volcanoes and ash.''

''    Tarold and his friends are baffled at what is going on or where they are and come to the conclusion based on the strange surroundings that they are on another world. They start to walk so that they will find materials to survive in the wild.''

''    Eventually they come across a weird purple squirrel with a star on its tail which Tarold likes. The squirrel then leads them to a strange village where there is some sort of festival going on. What is even more strange is how the people there have light blue skin and long, pointy ears and one of the performers makes blue light come out of his hands.''

''    Wilbur starts cheering and draws attention to himself and his friends and one man, the village chief named Marinof, asks them who they are and where they’re from. Eventually he leads them to his private quarters to help clear their misconceptions. They ask him many questions and he tells them what they need to know.''

''    They are on the world of Hancinia where instead of humans there are elves, different types of elves, in fact. The different elves live in tribes in different parts of the world and are known for their own reasons and have different abilities. They are the star elves, who live in Starecant, and there are also the iron elves, the dusk elves, and the wind elves. The star elves are known for researching science, the iron elves for their impressive technology, the dusk elves for wanting to make bonds with animals, and the wind elves for exploring the world to its farthest reaches.''

''    Every living thing, including Tarold and his friends, is capable of using a type of energy called delharia and each elf tribe uses its own type of delharia. Star elves use blue delharia, the delharia of discovery, to sharpen their reflexes and mental capabilities, iron elves use red delharia, the delharia of ingenuity, to increase their strength, dusk elves use yellow delharia, the delharia of bonds, to bond with others, and wind elves use green delharia, the delharia of wonder, to become very agile and quick. Each type of delharia has its own potential in combat and other subjects, too, such as the creation of objects known as instruments which are fueled by delharia.''

''    He also says that there is a fifth elf tribe, one that was cut off from the others for starting a war in the past. They are known for their large defenses and use of black delharia, the delharia of endurance, to increase their physical defense. They used to live in the mountains, but were driven into caves after the war and since became the cave elves.''

''    With all of this new information, Tarold asks how he can get home to Earth. Marinof says that he cannot for now since lately portals have been opening up at random places and times and one of them was the one Tarold and his friends came through. They won’t be able to go anywhere until the portals can be controlled. Marinof believes it is the cave elves who are opening the portals and causing problems and he tells them that they will have to go to their territory to find out what they are doing and stop it in order to get home.''

''    Tarold understands and says he will do just that. Marinof gives them special orbs called delharite which he explains are used by elves who are still training their delharia skills to maintain and stabilize their use of it. He also tells his son Larwin to go with them on their adventure to teach them more and guide them. With their new supplies, delharite, and newly discovered knowledge, they leave the village and head to the capital of Starecant named Maijing to seek more help there from the major chief, the leader of Starecant, under Marinof’s advise.''

''    On the way there, they encounter two ogres who Tarold, Charlie, and Wilbur are helpless against, leaving Larwin to kill them on his own. The three of them are amazed by his skill and wish they could do that kind of stuff, too.''

''    Along the way, Larwin explains how despite him being a star elf, he uses green delharia, like the wind elves, and how he always felt more like a wind elf than a star elf, being more interested in exploration than science. He was bullied in school and thought of as a disappointment by his own father.''

''    Eventually they come across a lake and Larwin makes a boat out of delharia to go over it. This is when an ogre boat comes to them, seeking vengeance for their fallen brothers, and starts to board their ship. In this dire situation is when Tarold and his friends manage to unlock their Delharia and beat the ogres again. They discover that Charlie uses blue delharia, Wilbur uses red delharia, and Tarold uses white delharia.''

''    Larwin is amazed by Tarold’s and explains that white delharia is a very rare type of delharia, the rarest kind, in fact. He says that the only other known person to have this delharia was a man named Selenthad. Selenthad lived thousands of years ago and helped his people to drive back the dark demons from the caves who sought to kill the elves and conquer the overworld. Selenthad was legendary for his actions and was able to achieve them purely through his use of white delharia, the delharia of light. The light was amazingly effective at opposing the darkness of the demons and the elves won the war because of him. As one of the only people with white delharia left, he was the elves’ last hope.''

''    Before this, there were no individual elf tribes and only one tribe of proto elves which all lived together. The people with white delharia were hunted and killed because they were deemed inferior for a lack of obvious ability potential. Since then, white delharia was never seen in an individual again and Larwin and Tarold wondered what it means that he of all people has it.''

    After this, they came out of the lake, walked some more, and finally arrived at Maijing.
