One of the soldiers saw Nathan wandering the castle where he approached and informed that Meira and Ranathia accompanied a mysterious woman toward one of the guest rooms. He told him to follow him and he'd regroup him with the girls. "You probably know by now that six continents make up the world of Gaea, but you don't know is all those continents at time were part of an enormous landmass called Elia. Elia was the large continent that the Avernia Empire used to rule over where Xhosa was at the helm of it all. He ruled almost the entire Elian continent meaning the entire world except a strip of land known as Ehtolia. Ehtolia is located on the southern tip of the Holyoke continent. Ehtolia is still owned by no nation. The land is protected by a sandstorm that prevents outsiders from entering it. Anyway, Ehtolia is where the deities decided to descend upon man and aid them in the fight against the tyranny of the Harken and its ruler Xhosa. The deities temporarily took refuge in the land of Ehtolia known to many as the Blessed Promised Land. These deities gave birth to children who would later become Elian Crusaders. When it looked like the Avernian Army had defeated all of its adversaries and only the Phaedrians were the ones still with the power to put up a fight, that is when several men and women rose up and brandished ancient weapons that were crafted by the deities and give to their holy blood or children to use. There was Saint Idris Guardia who is the son of Emerlink. He wielded the Spear of Salvation known as Daesleurph. The next was Angelian Elyria Eden who founded the Kingdom of Eden. She wielded the powerful Tome of Apostles known as the Ephemeris Luminaire. She bared the holy blood of Eternia Goddess of Miracle. Then there was the Hero of Chaos Flambard Cimmeria who brandished the Shattering Horizon Halberd Catastrophia blessed by the God of Power Arcturus. He was an Arkadian who migrated from another world to Gaea like quite a few of the other Elian Crusaders. The Holy Knight of Elia known as Aurelian Zeustzius who brandished the Blade of Light otherwise known as the famous Holy Sword Meleitling. Aurelian's holy blood was that of the Goddess of Mortal Universe Destruction Euphoria. The sword had another form which you will learn about in time. A Dragonite Elian by the name of Mehetabel Ereseal brandished the Magic Destroying Wing Blade known as Ragnadaim. It is sometimes nicknamed the Gemini Blade. He bared the holy blood of Agnevastra Goddess of Alteration. Loshan Lumina was an Angelian who formed the Kingdom of Lumina. He wielded another powerful magic tome called Rias Provaine or the Tome of the Divine Flame. Sometimes known as the Book of the Sacred Flame. He bared the holy blood of Xaliana Goddess of Connection. Azrael of the Four Winds formed the Sacred Dragonia Dynasty who was also a Dragonite like his brother Flambard. Azrael Dragonia wielded the El Gladius Kaze or the Sword of Wind. He was the holy blood of Fujin who is the Goddess of the Wind. The next two Elian Crusaders were a pair of sisters by the name of Thali and Myra Aventhosai. Thali was the holy blood of Stellvia the Goddess of Space-Time and Myra was the holy blood of Xiashakue the Goddess of Truth. Thali brandished the Sword of the Seventh Seal Broniac also known as the Emblem of Apocalypse and her sister used the Orbs of Elan Gossamer Facula which means The Eternal Truth. Another of the ancient weapons created was the one Stralia blessed known as the Berserker Band or now known as Mistaleyn. Stralia is the Goddess of Adversity and the person who wielded that weapon was Abimelech Levantaike who later formed the United Emirates of Avarona. He was a famous Nekrian who looked a lot like a wolverine. The one who wielded the Scepter of Elysia Elaire Vastral was a man by the name of Galdaris Danasta.

The holy blood of the God of Destiny Altair was an Arkadian man by the name of Reishin Primavalthera. He wielded the holy weapon known as Ewigeskyn otherwise known as the Spear of the Blessed Eternals. The next weapon was a rune which was extremely dangerous and only those with enough wisdom could ever control it. It was known as the Sacria Versya Tristania Vashuna wielded that chaotic weapon of destruction which was the holy blood of the God of Eternal Decay Kreosus. It is said that only Rudorians could wield the Sacria Versya and the Vashuna family were a group of Rudorians who lived in Xiria. The next of the holy blood was a man named Lucent'phelias Xanathare who wielded the Sword of Elan the famous Vale Loess who was the holy blood of Elan Goddess of Magic. Another that bared holy blood which was a famous alchemist by the name of Luciferias Atharva. He was a Mahzok and the original founder of the magic known as Atharva.

The Primordial Sword of Avalon known as the Sword of Absolute Power Asture Promusa was wielded by Savraj Zamora. He was the holy blood of the almighty Goddess of All-Creation Sigma. It is often that sword is called the Sword of Sigma or The All Destroyer Sword. The last time the Elian Crusaders appeared was the last time that sword has ever been seen. It has other nicknames such as The All Gathering Sword of Eternal Power. Reynburne Leibrandt wielded the Sky Sword Arcadia. He was the Elian Crusader of the Goddess of the Sky Andromeda. The Sword of Quintessence Celesna was wielded by Desiserius Zarcarias who was the holy blood of the mysterious goddess Aira known as the Goddess of the Reverse World.

These thirty Elian Crusaders blessed with holy weapons rose up against Xhosa and used their powers granted to them to destroy Xhosa. After Xhosa's defeat, six of them formed the six most powerful nations at that time. The others formed smaller nations, become wanders or drifters or served the other rulers." Was the last of Siia's words as she took a while to pause from a long winded explanation. She didn't expect it to take her that long to explain how many Elian Crusaders existed, but they probably didn't know there were thirty of them. Not all the gods and goddesses were accounted for. Just the ones that took part in the Ehtolian Miracle. "WOW!" Meira exclaimed when she heard about how many Elian Crusaders there were. She was surprised that there was so many. If that many holy weapons existed then that means there were a lot of weapons out there unaccounted for. Meira had no idea that so many holy weapons existed on Gaea. It was absolutely amazing to think that many actually were created.
