Excerpt: Changing Times

When When the dust had finally settled, and the sun had risen over the earth visible once more, the planet was decimated. Only about half of the planet’s population had survived and they had survived only to find themselves changing from day to day nearly from hour to hour. Unusual eye pigmentation and hair colors and combinations of all different kinds had sprung up. Afraid of this changing of themselves, the people reverted back to their basic primal instincts and so when faced with the instinctive response of fight or flight; they found themselves able to change. Their bodies shifting back easily back and forth from human to animal, and the world erupted into chaos. The people feared themselves as well as others, and they feared for the future until He came. His name has been lost over the generations but it is remembered that he was able to change into a dragon. And it was He Who Was A Dragon who brought the people back, from the brink of madness and restored order to the Planet. With Him as their leader the people began to rebuild their civilization. Four others saw the need to protect and so became guardians of Him. Coming from the four old divisions of the world they brought a sense of acceptance to the people and they became advisors and friends of Him. And with these five new leaders, from every corner of the world, the world again found that it was able to achieve a state of peace and anewed history. His reign began, at the restarting of time, in the year one and lasted for two hundred and fifteen years, ending with his death at two hundred and fifty years of having walked this earth. During his reign the world remained at peace and was full of prosperity and continued to flourish till now.
