The members of the Yuy clan came from a long line of hunters. Each one trained in swordsman and gunman ship. They had learned to make bombs, bullets, and tools to use at very young ages. They were the best hunters their was to offer, each generation learning from the last, passing on knowledge to the next, and each generation was sought out to eliminate the most troublesome nuisances from vast empires and petty kings.
The children never learned to be children. They never knew how to run through the fields with other children, with no care in the world. They never felt the warm sun on their cheeks during a midday afternoon. Instead they traveled with the elders, learning the trade of the hunters. The clan was devoted to their work and prided themselves that they were the best and would ensure that their children was as great as them.
Daiki was the former leader of the clan. His greater grandfather had been the first hunter within the family, passing on his trade to each of his sons. And after seven generations, his great-grandson, Daiki, had taken lead of the hunters.
Daiki was a solemn face man with dark brown hair and amber eyes. At the age of twenty-five he had taken leadership, and with his clan of kin, they traveled about the kingdoms, slaying monsters and wooing women.
Daiki took a bride, Caritia, from the western mountains. She was a small, petite woman with midnight hair and dark blue eyes. She traveled with Daiki wherever he went, refusing to stay in any of the villages they passed. However she lived a cursed fate.
When she was eighteen she gave birth to their son, Heero, named for his grandfather, Jiro. But one fateful night, as she lay resting in the village after the birth, the dragon they had been chasing came crashing through the village.
They had been hunting a dragon known as Katsu. Katsu was a deadly breed of wyverns known as Epifanio, the manifestation. They were the hardest to hunt, the hardest to find as they were just like us. Every month they would transform into humans, walking amongst them before the New Moon came and then they would retreat into the darkness.
As Katsu ran recklessly through the small village, crashing into houses, Caritia used her body to shelter her son from the falling debris. She never felt the splintered wood run through her shoulder as she cradled her new born, an unusually quite babe in a deadly time like this.
When Daiki had returned to the village, Katsu was gone, the houses no longer standing. He tore at the debris frantically. He unearthed Caritia and his son from the rumble. His wife was dying but the son still lived. He vowed then that he would not rest in life or death until he had destroyed every wyvern in the land.
He took his wife’s body to the Shea Mountains where he placed her in glass, decorating her with lilies and pearls.
Shea was the resting place of the hunters. No body that was laid to rest would ever be touched by time. They were preserved, their beauty never-ending, their body never becoming one with the Earth they were made from. They were placed on pedestals, on the highest mountain, in reach of the Gods where they would watch over the dead. It’s ironic to say that in these mountains where were the dragons Epifanio were born.

Thirteen years had passed and Daiki had found the wyvern that had killed his wife. Many of the clan had passed on since then and Heero had grown since then, and followed his forefathers as a hunter.
It had been a long endless journey when they found Katsu. Near the Shea Mountains, Daiki had finally killed Katsu. He had avenged his wife, but he still couldn’t rest. He had injured himself, poison was rapidly spreading throughout his body.
As Heero held his dying father, he made the same vow Daiki did thirteen years ago. He wouldn’t rest till the last of the wyverns were slain. Katsu’s brother still lived, one they had called Shinigami, one that Heero would slay to avenge his father and mother’s death.
And on that night, he placed his father inside a glass box next to his mother, decorating Daiki with roses and diamonds.

Heero traveled to Anumireh. When Heero turned sixteen, he, his half brother Trowa, and the priest known as Wufei departed from the Elvin city as hunters.

After Caritia had died, Daiki sought comfort in another woman’s arms. When Heero was barely a year, an elf woman, Charna, gave birth to Trowa. Heero had spent three years with Trowa before departing with their father. They returned whenever they passed through.
After Daiki had died, Heero came to Anumireh to mourn his father with his brother. A priest from the land of Ariella. He had offered his services and a place to stay before he found his reason to leave. He was welcomed graciously into the Elvin land and allowed to stay as long as he had wished. When Heero came he had offered to lay the spirit to rest for the boys, hoping to be of some help.
On one cold day in Autumn, Heero left the city. Trowa had felt trapped within the city walls. He bid his mother goodbye, leaving with Heero to find a place where he felt he belonged.

Whenever a child is born that is fathered by a priest from Ariella, the child, if a boy, is to be taken to the ethereal land and raised there as a priest. The child would never know his mother, and his father would only be a name, a mystery to him for a man could never lay claim to a child.
Wufei was raised as a priest and a warrior, a custom that had been around for thousands of years.
When Wufei turned fifteen, he was sent out of the temples as all men from Ariella are. He was to travel the lands until he had found his purpose in life, his one lesson the Divine Gods would grant him.
Wufei traveled to Anumireh where he met a mysterious elf with emerald green eyes, known as Trowa. He offered his services and served a as a priest for those. He worked as a doctor, taking care of the sick and providing the care that was needed. He exorcising demons in the city and neighboring ones. However he never found his true place there.
When Trowa’s brother came to the city and left, he went with the two brothers, hoping to find his purpose on their journey as hunters for he felt drawn to the two.

After his brother death, Duo had felt alone in the world. He and his brother Solo, known as Katsu to the human world, were the last of their kind, hunted down to the very end. He knew the hunters would come for him next, but when he could not tell.
He traveled to Kelandra, a Place of the Gods. There he could find peace till he was ready to face the outside world.
Kelandra was the holiest of places. It was hidden from the world, it’s only entrance through a stone circle, the right words, and the Key from the Gods. It was here where Duo was always welcomed and could stay in his human form, unbound and free from the Moon.
When he had arrived in Kelandra, he found his friend, the High Priestess Lucrezia, in labor.
Lucrezia was a beautiful woman, with dark brown eyes and midnight blue hair. She had met Duo and his brother years ago when she had journeyed to see her sister, Relena in the marriage to the King Treize. Duo and Solo had since then been visitors to Kelandra and often helped the High Priestess when she had requested it.
Lucrezia gave birth that day to a girl. One Duo would always watch after. It wasn’t for the verity that she was the daughter of his good friend, but when the child was born and Duo held her in his arms, she did not cry for her mother but looked at Duo with her large green eyes. In the small newborn, he found Solo, and he bound his life to her, vowing to protect her till she passed on into the spirit world.
The child would always be small, and for this she was given the name of a past fairy queen known as Caelia.
Duo watched her as she grew. He raised her as his sister. She was a special child to him. She was shyer than other of the young priestess and would often ask Duo to stay for her lessons. He’d often take her to the outside world. He taught her how to ward off predators with simple smells and charms they didn‘t like. He taught her to ride a horse, to swim in the rivers and to speak his ancient tongue. But the greatest thing he ever did for her was to let her fly. When she had first told him she was afraid of heights, Duo had taught her to climb trees, to jump off of high places and allow him to catch her. When she had overcame it, he allowed her to climb upon his back when he had transformed and flew her up into the midnight sky.
When Caelia was ten, Lucrezia asked Duo to take her to Vashti, there she would continue her training as future priestess by an old Druid known as Calhoun and would aid her cousin, Quatre, who would soon be High King. As future High Priestess she was to become counsel with the King and keep him in oath to the Gods and Kelandra.
Duo had found work at Vashti so he could remain closer to Caelia and watch her. He worked as a stable hand and consort for Caelia and the old Druid who was her father.
Calhoun, when Duo had met him, was in his sixties, and was shocked a man of this age could sire a child. However the man couldn’t allow himself the satisfaction that his manhood had fathered such beauty. It was against the Gods for a man to lay claim to a child without the permission of the mother.
Duo had watched as the child grew from a small shy child into a young bright woman who would soon be priestess. It saddened Duo to know that he would watch her grow older with time, to see her age and pass on, while he would remain unchanged.
