The world was saved by the Elemental Masters of the past, especially the Elemental Master of Light.

Now, it is up to Luke Allard, the present day Light to recreate his ancestor's legend and defeat the Malevolent One with his four childhood friends. They are the new heroes. They will find and dispose of the fragments of the Malevolent One before he reabsorb them by any means necessary. Either by sealing; or killing.

But what of the Malevolent One's fragments? With their own unique personalities and backstories, none of them wants to die.

How will they find their place in a world that sees them as a threat? If they could even survive the Malevolent Ones brutality.

This story follows four characters with their own struggles and burdens as they try to defeat the villain who hurt them.

A story of persecution and growth
