Things that happen and the beings that are a part of them.
The truth
There is a malevolent force keeping the consciousness, and the true forms of the beings of Earth suppressed. The malevolent force does this by using various ‘angels’ that are positioned at the twelve vile vortices located around the globe. These ‘angels’ are not what the various religious books depict as angels. These are biomechanical genetic constructs that exude a wavelength of energy, known as the veil, in order to keep consciousness and the truth hidden from the beings of Earth.
These ‘angels’ are pawns within the shadow government that is controlled by the malevolent force.
The malevolent force was aware that some of the plant life on Earth was counteracting its suppression, so it began to genetically modify and destroy the original strains of these plants. Plants like marijuana, psilocybin mushrooms, sassafras, and even coca plants (there are more than only these plant varieties) had strains that were somewhat naturally bioluminescent and kept beings in touch with the mystic energies and gave power to elemental beings. These original plant strains were thought to be removed from the planet, though some of these plants have managed to stay hidden from those who would destroy them.
What’s happening
Awakenings have been occurring and a small group of these beings is hunting these “angels” in order to liberate every species of being on Earth. With these awakenings taking place, many of the being’s true forms are coming to the surface. Nura and Mustafa have been aiding some of these beings to awaken.
When Nura and Moost bring a being into awakening they place a wavelength of their own, similar to the veil, over the newly awakened being in order to protect and hide them from the malevolent force. This wavelength is also transmitted from one being to another, as long as the original awakened beings are awakened through Nura and Moost.
How it happens
There are a few different ways for awakening to happen, one way is for an unawakened being to interact with awakened beings. However if the awakened beings were brought into this state through Nura and Moost, it takes three or more of said awakened beings to interact with unawakened beings for this to take place. This is because of the transmissible wavelength that Nura and Moost have placed on the beings they brought to this consciousness.
This method of awakening doesn’t always bring a being into their full potential, and often these newly awakened beings don’t immediately come into any elemental abilities.
Another way is for an unawakened being to consume one of the original plant strains. This is the method Nura and Moost use to bring a being into an awakening, and this method will bring the being into its full potential of elemental abilities. If a being consumes one of these plant strains, it will awaken and have elemental powers. If the newly awakened being isn’t interacting with or isn’t anywhere near either Nura and Moost, or near one of the other beings awakened through Nura and Moost, they will not have the protection of the wavelength and there is a potential for the malevolent force to find them and send its forces to eliminate them. However, the protective wavelength can be transmitted to these beings if they come into contact with and interact with another being who already has the protective wavelength.
Self-actualization is the last way an awakening can happen, though it doesn’t happen very often. Through self-actualization, the newly awakened being has more potential to come into their elemental abilities, and if a being is already awakened through interactions with other beings, they too can self-actualize themselves into elemental powers. The downside of self-actualization is that the newly awakened being doesn’t have the benefit of the protective wavelength, and is more likely to be hunted down by the shadow government.
If this type of awakened being interacts with anyone else they can cause an awakening simply by themselves, due to not having the protective wavelength.
The trip
When an awakening happens to the extent of a being coming into their elemental ability, the being is brought into the psychedelic realm. This is a realm that exists within all beings and can be accessed either through self-actualization or by consuming an original plant strain.
When Nura and Moost bring a being into awakening, they usually guide the being through the first part of their trip.
The being enters a sort of catatonic state that they are guided through, and can seem to last a lengthy period of time to the being, yet in reality only lasts about fifteen minutes.
When a being consumes one of the original plant strains on their own, they enter a similar catatonic state that can last for an even shorter period of time than if they were to be guided. This time frame can vary depending on how much the being is willing to explore, and can be even longer than if guided. Most often it doesn’t last longer than a minute or two.
When a being self-actualizes they don’t really go into a catatonic state when entering the psychedelic realm. It’s almost as if they can see the psychedelic realm overlapping with the physical realm where they exist. This can be incredibly difficult for the being as they have to figure out things as they see them occur within their own reality.
If the self actualised being takes time to meditate and sort out what they are seeing, they can make their way through the transformation much easier by navigating the psychedelic realm in a calm an relaxed way.
There’s a downside
Awakenings aren’t always met in a welcoming way, some beings can’t handle the reality and lose their minds. They refuse to believe what they are seeing and most often will try to kill those who brought them to this awakening. These beings have been named the “closed mind controlled” (CMC) by Nura and Moost. If these beings aren’t dealt with, meaning shown how to accept the truth, or killed, often they are eventually found by the shadow government and enlisted into their ranks.
Self actualised beings are not among the cmc.
I will post more on this particular part of the subject in the future as I post more chapters relevant to this.
Other inhabitants
The animal life is no different. Mystic creatures were cross-bred with each other as well as with non-mystic creatures in order to breed out the mysticism. These cross breedings brought forth many new animals, examples of this are house cats, various dogs, and various birds. However, there are species where cross-breeding failed. Animals that have echolocation abilities and animals that have electroreception abilities are examples of this. In these cases where cross-breeding was impossible, the force of the veil increased in order to keep the full mystic energy suppressed.
When awakening happens to an animal, the size of the animal may or may not change a great deal. The big differences that occur are the mystic traits, things like the number of limbs and eyes, or even elemental abilities. Animals are more susceptible to awakenings than other beings due to the varying consciousness levels since animals can sense things that regular people can’t.
Animals can reach an awakening from interacting with fewer awakened beings.
For each animal, there is a humanoid version that exists, and for much of the aquatic life, the veil forced an evolution onto these humanoid beings in order for them to adapt to living and breathing on land. However, it is quite often, though not always, that these aquatic beings are more susceptible to breathing problems like pleurisy or are afflicted with asthma.
Once awakened, these aquatic beings find that their gills are functional and that they can breathe underwater as well.
The elements
There are seven main elements, air, earth, fire, water, light, darkness (light and darkness are two sides of the same coin and as a result, they have similar varieties with similar abilities), and chi/prana. There is another element that came into existence as a result of ‘man-made’ design, the tech/technology element. Each element has various categories to them as well, the following are examples of such categories.
Air elemental varieties- tropical storm, sand storm, tornado/twister, vapour/gas, smoke, microburst
Earth elemental varieties- flora and fauna, rock and gem, metals and elements, tectonic, medicinal/herbal, mycelium/mycetozoan, magnetic
Fire elemental varieties- inferno, lava, compression/explosion, lightning, ignition/spark
Water elemental varieties- tsunami, ice, surge, geyser, gush/flow
Light elemental varieties- divine/intense light, healer/reincarnation, electromagnetic spectral (radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma), gravity, time, strobe, mind, sound
Darkness elemental varieties- void/intense darkness, healer/reincarnation, electromagnetic spectral, gravity, time, anti-strobe, mind, sound
Chi/prana elementals are beings that are the pinnacle of physical ability (strength, speed, agility), and they are also able to see, feel, and control the energy that flows around them (telekinesis and a bit of clairvoyance) to a certain degree. Since chi/prana flows through everything in existence, these elementals can have some of each element within them. Though certain traits may stand out more than others. However, the various elements are not as strong within the chi elementals as the elements are within the elementals of each specific element.
The chi/prana elementals can really only use the other elements as a means of defence, their physical abilities and chi are what they use for offence.
Tech elementals are a result of “man-made” design, however, they are able to harness the universal spark that is similar to chi/prana. Similar to the chi/prana elementals, tech elementals have some of each element within them, and certain elements are more prominent.
Differing from the chi/prana elemental, the tech elemental most often is not at the peak of physical prowess and does not control the energy around them. Their physical strength will depend on the type of species they have awakened to be. The elements are stronger within the tech elementals than within the chi/prana elementals. The catch to this is that the tech elemental has to infuse the element into the technologies that they create, rather than controlling the element directly.
They are also able to use these elements for offence.
The tech and chi elementals can have an element that is more prominent than others.
How elemental combinations make various elementals
Each category within each element can also be a bit of a combination of elements, with one of the elements being dominant. A geyser elemental has both the elements of water and fire, yet is a water elemental. A lava elemental has the elements of fire and earth, with the element of fire being dominant. A lightning elemental is a combination of fire, earth, air, and water, with the dominant element being fire.
Each elemental has the potential to perform some similar abilities as others of the same element to varying degrees, most often this is the passive abilities. For example, each type of air elemental has the ability to fly, each fire elemental can cook food in their own hands, each earth elemental can talk to animals, and each water elemental can control the direction of the flow of water in order to push a boat in a certain direction.
Elementals can combine their abilities with other elementals to create different spells/attacks, even with elementals of different elements. The effects are numerous.
Casting physics
On a side note, when sorcery is being used, the landscape and objects can be affected to various extents, however, it all depends on where the focus is directed. For example, the landscape/buildings/objects/other beings will not be drastically affected by the spell/attack when the focus is directed at an enemy.
They can be blown/soaked/burnt/pushed/struck, however, the effect will only be minor. They can receive a more drastic effect when the being casting the spell/attack isn’t as focused on their enemy. Of course, if the elemental focuses their casting at the landscape/buildings/objects/other beings they will be directly affected, damaged, or even destroyed.
