Dear (insert name)
My name is Nicholas Flammel. If you are reading this letter, then two things have happened: I am dead and the Dark Ones are close to being set free from their eternal prison. If the Dark Ones get free, then all you know will cease to exist. I do not have much time so I will explain as best as I can.
The Dark Ones weren't always known as the name they have now. They were once called The Elders and they were many. The Elders were a race of ancient and powerful beings. They once ruled the world long before humans existed. However, before them was an even older race known as The Ones Who Came before or The Ancients. The Ancients and The Elders fought a long and bloodly war to claim the earth. Eventually, 13 Elders that outclassed the rest of their kind known as the Great Elders, rose up and sealed the queen of the Ancients along with her five generals. With that, the Elders claimed the earth and times became peaceful.
However, that peace started to crumble when one of the 13 Great Elders created the first humans. Some Elders were infuriated and wanted to put them down or used as slaves. Even some of the Great Elders felt this way. They saw the potential that they held and were fearful of being overthrown by the humans. Other Elders defended the humans. Eventually war broke out, dividing the Elders amongst each other. The ones who wanted to enslave or destroy the humans were then labeled the Dark Ones. The Elders who fought for humanity sealed away some of the Dark Ones in another dimension. Others fled, bidding in thier own dimension or somewhere in earth. The Elders stepped down, letting the humans pave their own path, giving them a little help along the way.
Now the seal that holds the Dark Ones away from earth is weakening thanks to the ones known as Immortals. Immortals are beings who've had the aura awakened by an Elder, Dark Elder or other means. For example, king Author was a man who awakened his aura by freeing Excalibur which had magical properties. A woman who's name I won't mention awaken her aura by bathing in the fountain of youth. Aura is the life force of every creature. Every aura has a color and no two auras are the same. Everyone has it but if you can awaken it you can do incredible things. From magic and spells to running faster than a bullet. Though, aura can burn fairly quickly, it can also be trained like stamina. If your aura burns out, you die. More accurately, you burst into flames.
The Dark Elders have reached out to some humans, promising them riches, power, immortality and a spot in their new world once the reclaim it. Those humans blindly follow the Dark Elders. They are weakening the seal and looking for a way to break it completely. They must be stopped.
I am an Immortal, awakened by one of the Elders. There are others like me who wise to stop the corrupted Immortals from freeing the Dark Elders. There are very little of use and that is why we need you. You are a part of an long forgetten prophecy. You are a child of legend. You have one of the purest and rarest of auras. Pure darkness. pure Light. Pure Gold. Pure silver.
You along with the other children of legend must find a way to stop the corrupted Immortals and others who wish to free the Dark Ones. You first become Awakened. I have left you a instructions on how to get to an Elder who fights for humanity. He will Awaken you. Be warned. The awakening is a dangerous and wonderful process. Anything could happen. If you aren't strong enough to handle it, you will die.
One last thing...forget all that you know. Myths are real. Creatures, monsters. All of that is real. This is not the only world out there. There are things hidden from human eyes. But once you set foot in this new world, there is no going back. I will not force you to save the world. It is your decision.
