Chapter Text
In worlds where a variety of Spirits, Demons, and mythical beings and creatures.
Floating Continents. Planes that constantly have snow covering the land throughout the year( cold but the view of the night sky is most beautiful compared to everywhere else) and lastly the vast Green lands where the Faes and Bird Races favours because of the giant trees to live in or on, and for the variety of herbs and wild animals and creatures that inhabits the jungles and forests.
After a century of war full of needless death that made no difference neither good for either side.
a war caused by power hungry greedy Ancients*, Ancients who no longer live. due to assassinations, death during battle or just plain illness caused by stress and old age.
finally 3 noble families from each of the three realms. by forming what will be known as 'The Trinity' that ended 'The Century-old Chaos' created by the Ancients.
Once the war ended, Real work began. The Trinity clans returned to their respective Realms to establish the new rule and rebuild. years of planning and strategizing between the three clans to make sure the future of the land will continue to prosper and NEVER deteriorate ever again.
Due to their efforts, the realms have accepted them to be their respective rulers, the old castles left by the Ancients were repaired with the help of people.
The Floating Legion planes is ruled by the Drake Clan, a Race of dragon shifting creatures, there are a variety of different types of Drakes, from Physically Talented, such as strong wings to fly quick and stealthy, thick-skinned or being able to shoot the sharp spikes on their bodies, and then there are the Elemental Drakes, as stated these drakes are born with an element for example, Firedrakes are able to breathe fire, in exchange their bodies looks like the embodiment of Fire itself, it goes with lava, ice, water, air, metal and many more.
the floating Legion Planes inhabits, cyclopes, bird races and nymphs, muses and more.
The Frozen Crystal Empire is now ruled by The Vampire and Werewolf clan, the vampire clan took over the Frozen Empire since none of them is really bothered by the harsh climate and isolation. but no one can deny the night sky view and wonderful view. everyone is welcome to live in the Realm anyone who is comfortable with the bloodsuckers. not only do vampires have their super speed super strength and long life spans.
this Realm is home to Yetis, gnomes, gremlins, and Phoenixes that resides at the topmost isolated part of the mountains, where no one can disturb their daily resurrections.
what most people don't realize is that Vampires and Werewolves are the only remnants of the human race most of the humans couldn't survive amongst the harsh reality brought by the century-long war, most died, but some decided to turn, into either vampires or werewolves.
Vampires also practice magic, potions and collect tomes and books, and known to be very good friends with the Faes, Dwarves, cyclopes and harpies. in the name of knowledge
Werewolves were created through an illegal human transmutation made by a mad alchemist and his witch wife, using their own daughter and the neighbour friend she made a test subject.
they made a mistake by involving their neighbour's son which attracted unwanted attention from the head of the Vampire clan. The Mad couple was beheaded by the Vampire Lord right then and there with his bare hands, took off his coat wrapped the kids and adopted them.
Vampire scholars read through the couple's Experiment notes and learned of the lycanthropy Disease, an incurable disease created through a chain of Forbidden alchemy and Black magic.
now after the war, more things have been learned about the Lycans, they also have lengthened life spans, the disease can be spread through a bite under the full moon, their animalistic instincts now werewolves are known to fight alongside Vampires and has evolved to instinctively offer their undying loyalty to the vampire king due to the two original werewolves.
And lastly the Green Lands. the land of the Faes, Dwarves, Elves and Tengu.
The Tengu Clan ruled over the Green after the war, which causes the people of the green. to them the Tengus were descendent of gods, and brings good luck and being their ruler is considered a huge blessing.
None of the Tengus Agreed nor disagreed to their assumptions, but merely took it to their advantage and give the people the benefit of the doubt, to maintain the peace.
that doesn't mean that Tengus are weak, really they are a very powerful Race. one of the few Creatures that was created by an actual god. to punish those who misuse power for fame and position, as well as vain and arrogant warriors and samurais. hence why the Tengu clan proposed The Alliance to the two other most powerful clan who are well versed with the same morals as the Tengus.
The Drakes and The Vampires.. and luck would have it they also shared the same thoughts and feelings about the war and the idiots tripping over themselves trying to win a position they do not deserve. EVER.
their only regret was that they didn't do it sooner, that way the loses Creon suffered wouldn't have been as great.
the Green lands is a bountiful land with fertile land so healthy to trees are big enough to hollow out the inside and make a home out of them enough to make 4 homes all the way to the trunks that fit 5 people family and still be spacious.
the greenery has attracted many famous healers and herbalists to hunt for supplies or even to move here to make their own garden of medical plants and herbs. And not to mention for Farming
aside from the greenery, there were also the animals that inhabit the forest, jungles and mountains. it was a good game and good food.
the green lands are the wealthiest out of the three Realms since most of the food comes from the fertile farmlands of the Green.
it has been 50 years since the rebuilding began for the new era, everything has grown more stable the people were no longer suffering as much as before and only continue to prosper with growing resources, no territorial restrictions or random army or bandit raids.
everything was moving for the better.
though everyone still suffers the loss of the fox spirits. The Kitsune Race. the only Race that went Extinct.
Kitsune is another Race created by a god called 'Inari-kami'.
Kitsunes are immortal creatures that value freedom over everything, though it takes Kitsune's more than 100 years to learn how to shift into human form, even when they have a hard time maintaining it.
God-like powers are bestowed upon them and the more tails they have means they hold more wisdom and more power as well as their age. before they went extinct there was only one Nine-Tailed Fox in existence, Kurama.
it was a great shock to Creon when the news and the smell of sweet tantalizing smell of blood spread to those who are near 'the Hidden planes', The Kitsune's sanctuary.
no one could walk in the hidden plane other than Kitsunes the fog that surrounds the plane was created by Kurama himself if someone who is not a kitsune walks into the fog only ends up walking back.
the kitsune were meant to be part of the Alliance but it was too late by the time the fairy messenger came back bawling her little eyes out explaining how Kurama himself annihilated the whole race himself, before the nine tailed fox killed himself he explained how one of the young kitsune 's star ball was taken and he was ordered to steal Kurama's starball and ordered to kill all the Kitsunes in the land.
After the war, all the Alliance could hope for is that they managed to avenge all of them.
Midnight black eyes scans said lands with calculating, eyes full of authority and confidence.
Sasuke Uchiha, Second son of the Main Tengu FAmily, 187 y/o Tengu prince, one of the legendary Generals of the Trinity that led the last battle to victory, bringing home the heads of the chaotic simpletons that brought chaos to the now peaceful land.
"... aside from the foreseen bountiful crops for the next 5 years, half of the green land has burned down, the Floating planes have crumbled to the ground, the Frozen crystal Empire has melted and I'm pregnant with your 30th clutch, Sasuke-koi."
the nonchalance of the red-haired glasses wearing assistant voice as if she was offering some tea and cookies.
"WHAT THE FUCK?!", I whipped my head towards her floating figure next to me, where we float in mid-air.
she lifts her equally red eyes as his hair, from where it was previously looking down at the notes she was holding. Raising a delicately shaped brow at me looking very unimpressed.
"do I have your attention now, Sasuke?", her voice laced with rich sarcasm. as she crossed her arms.
"really Sasuke, you were out of it for the past 30 minutes, not listening and you just now heard me... and I said way more ridiculous shit, I was almost sad you missed all of it.''
giving the redhead my nastiest death glare which only got ignored like nothing.
"why the need to report about the development of the Green, when I can practically feel it singing colourfully ". 'but for some reason, something feels too ... well '
doing another take on the vast scenery below the, his eyes swept towards the farmlands using his superior sight, he appreciated the excellent work the farmers have put on the crops for the past few decades, though this year, looking specifically at a farmer that just pulled out a potato plant to behold a bunch of oversized potatoes that were was too big for a plant that small.
"..seems like it's really true", still keeping his dark eyes as the farmer holding the oversized potatoes looked stunned at them, the raven grunts in agreement.
with a wave of his dark raven wings, he flew down the farmland just beside the patch the farmer just finished packing the potatoes in a crate full of more oversized potatoes, with further examination it seems that there were more full crates on a cart that are probably on their way to the be delivered. the crates were full of many different oversized vegetables.
"Great General! oh my! what brings us this honour, my lord? Karin-Sama?", the Farmer man finished his packing of the potatoes and proceeds to wipe his dirt covered hands.
Sasuke gives a quick eye contact with the redhead next to him indicating to keep a close eye on anything suspicious.
watching the farmer make his way towards them. Sasuke gives the hardworking man a nod as a greeting.
everyone in all Three realms knows of the Young Uchiha's stoic cold character. but after the war everyone was shocked at the news and display of the raven's ferocity and passion during battle saving lives and protecting everyone, making sure battles are far away from villages, and if it were not possible he makes sure the people are evacuated to a safe place where they can take refuge.
The people saw The Uchiha warrior as someone who will protect anyone or anything, no one was expendable. it didn't matter if they were missing both legs and an arm if they were breathing, he will save them.
after the war when the Realms were established by The Trinity, Everyone who was saved by The Uchiha decided to dedicate their services to help The Green to prosper to show their gratitude to The Tengu Uchiha Clan.
50 years later after the war, they have learned more of the hidden soft caring heart that the second Uchiha son hides. when he would go ride his horse to visit the villages, some days he would fly around along with the survey team that fly across The Green.
Ever since the incident with the Cursed couple that created the Lycanthropy Disease, The Legion has established The Order,
The Order is a council created so Magic will never be Misused Again. Each Realm has a Head Representative who specializes in any type of magic, witchcraft, Alchemy, Shaman, Mystic, and Scholar. It is also The Order's job to protect The Oracle. obviously, everyone needs the Oracle safe but it is The Order that ensures it happens.
Lately, it has come to the attention of the member's of the Order that resides in The Green, that the crops of a certain part of the Realm have been too Generous. Research and samples of the land's soil have been conducted and examined, and it showed no special properties, and this raised a few red flags that brought the protective Uchiha into action himself.
The Green Lands has always been naturally fertile, there was no need to disrupt the peace of Nature, The Green has always taken pride in that. now there may be an unknown looming in the realm.
at that moment Sasuke is currently investigating that matter. the past few days have drawn to a blank and the raven's frustration is growing double with every day he receives nothing.
checking over the man before him, a lower class Tengu citizen of The Green. he showed no sign of magic or behaviour of an Alchemist. Alchemists and Witches tend to be more fidgety and kept to themselves when handling a force against nature, Tsunade an Ancient Fae, The Green's head Magician probably one of the best, for mastering Witchcraft, Alchemy, Shaman Rituals and as well as the Healing Arts that only the Fae species are blessed with, she is also the Head Scholar so she is known to hold information many don't know of and to top all that she is one out of 3 people who The Oracle speaks to or take over when The Oracle needs to speak personally . it was the only Possession act that is permitted for the safety of The Oracle.
New Recruits are who has no connection to Mana* or Chakra* are taught how to identify signs that it is being used or misused. such as dead patches of grass, sudden drops of temperature, whispering coming from the wind and many more.
the past few days none of the signs was identified that connects to the unusual crop growths.
Sasuke is starting to believe that The land is just getting more fertile.
"Good day, Farmer-san!", Karin greets. "we, see your crops has been abundant as of this year?".
"Oh yes! it has been, it has been quite noticeable the past months during harvest day, the potatoes grew fast and generous, it is quite alarming! but also quite a blessing&.
the Farmer's reaction to Karin's double incentive question draws Sasuke's attention to the man's choice of words. 'blessing'.
"Blessing?", one word that holds a million questions.
Sasuke has had enough of Lurking about and decided to just go head on.
"it has come to my attention that your crops have been to quite amazing, but our Magicians and Scholars a found nothing notably different about the soil that covers your lands, Farmer&, Sasuke crosses his arms against his chest maintaining is different mask on, putting a bit of pressure on the lower Tengu before him. "and this concerns me .. greatly"
Karin elbows the dark haired man and hissed his name for being rash. as of yet, they have not a single bit of evidence that gives them the right to ask such accusing questions.
"well, that is very true my lord, since neither I or the rest of my family hold no affinity to magic and so on, this is quite a predicament.", the Farmer good-naturedly laughed, scratching his head feeling at loss. " My family and I like to believe, a god is smiling down on us and blessed us"
The raven Immediately felt ashamed for his unjustified snarkiness, as he listens to the good nature response he received from the farmer.
he immediately bowed down and apologized to the good farmer, in which the farmer frantically tried to stop his actions waving his hands but unable to touch the bowing general for his hands are still quite dirty from the harvest.
Karin only giggles happily at the display.
the rest of the evening the farmer's Wife walked out to call for her husband when she caught sight of the Great General and the Red Hawk helping said husband with the harvesting. and putting away crates.
this caused the wife to throw her hot ladle at her husbands face for making not only the General help with his work but also Lieutenant Karin, Karin is known in battle as the Red Hawk, she displayed her skills as an excellent Archer targeting target from kilometres away and always hits with a bullseye, not only in her heightened senses has help in battle numerous times and saved many lives, Sasuke will be forever grateful because without her he would've not have saved half as many people he did. using her senses to safely evacuate villages with the help of the Red Hawk.
the wife ended up inviting both of them for Supper, hearing the invitation, Sasuke was alarmed at how fast the time has passed. But accepted the offer of food. but not as loud as Karin, the glutton that she is she practically flew into the quaint cottage following the delicious smell of butter and potato.
"my lord please have more soup they are all freshly harvested today.. as you may have noticed.", Amu the Farmer Wife has finished grilling her husband for allowing the young master to help in the field along with the lieutenant because Karin explained how Farm Work was soothing to them compared to training and battle.
"mmmmmhhhhhh, Sasuke this food tastes amazing, Fresh vegetables are awesome! MORE", Sasuke sends a behave yourself to his companion, which was shooed away when the redhead squealed like a pig when his 5th serving came. it was like she plans on eating the whole harvest!
"it's fine Sasuke-sama like we said, the harvest this whole year has been generous so we have too much food stored this way they won't go to waste." Kazu noticing the look Sasuke is sending the redhead, Kazu decided to Assure the General good-heartedly.
"I was all thanks to Nawu-chan right, mama?", Iki, the 2-year-old daughter holding a bunny doll was apparently listening to their conversation.
since they were just a family of three, Sasuke wondered who this Nawu-chan and how does he have to do with the crops?
Sasuke makes eye contact with Karin, years of going into battle with Karin and the rest of his squad they have learned to communicate by just looks and other ways.
in this case, Sasuke is telling Karin to Ask the little Girl of this 'Nawu-chan'.
Karin receives this and she bounces from her seat and faces the little girl eating next to her. looking very enthusiastic.
"ooohh, Who is 'Nawu-chan, Iki-chan?", karin send the little girl a mega-watt smile for added sweetness, Sasuke can't help but scoff which was the closest to a chuckle the raven could muster. hard to believe the bafoon before him, has killed hundreds of people before.
"Nooo~, ish Naaa~~ wruu-chan!", the little girl seems to be annoyed for saying her friend's name wrong. her parents could only chuckle at their little girl's endearing behaviour, even Sasuke could not help but smirk a little. the kid was cute with her simple green apple dress with a white ribbon bow on the chest, strawberry blonde hair in pigtails while holding a stuffed bunny with a matching white bow tie clearly her favourite doll, probably her only one.
Karin makes a puzzled face and tries again. luckily she got it right. Sasuke would hate it if this dragged on.
"Na. Ru? -chan?"
"yes!", the little girl giggle happily, "Nawu-chan, is my friend"
And therein lies the magic phrase. in Creon, it has been a scary word, when children claim a new FRiend that no one knows of, usually, these ' Friends' could be entities that seek revenge or simply mischief.
but the Aura Crystals spread Across the land has not sent a warning to Tsunade about any wandering Entities, nor does any portals have opened. so it couldn't be that.
Sasuke moves his gaze to the couple but nothing indicates any red flags, just two people happily married with a beautiful daughter.
this Naru-chan maybe the root of all this Mystery, the thing is does the farmer know?
"Naru-chan is your friend? where does he live ?"
"Nawu-chan wives somewhere ouwside."
well, that's unsettling.
"when did you meet, Naru-chan?", karin asks not missing a beat.
"Dada found Nawu-chan sleeping ona cawbage."
this time Sasuke and Karin looked at the farmer with raised brows at how much this conversation was getting out of control and weird.
Kazu could only laugh at their reaction good-naturedly. And decided to put them out of their misery.
"it was during the start of the year in winter when I was about to go out and harvest the cabbages, as I got close to the patch I noticed come thing out of place, something orange almost red, at first I thought my cabbages were on fire until I found this fox unconscious and freezing to death.
it was curled into a ball breathing shallow breaths so I took it inside the house wrapped the little mite in warm blankets, it took to use a week of caring for the little guy, when one day when he got better enough he left leaving us with his blankets wrapped in a mountain of rare berries, berries that could only be found from 'The Planes'."
"The Planes!?", the impossibility of the story shocked the raven and the hawk. " it takes a Day an a half to fly up to the Floating Planes by AirShip!?"
"yes. it took us a couple of harvests when it took 30 days to fully grow our tomato crops and bared fruit in a week., we brushed it of the first time it happened and claimed we probably have a perfect summer, during those days we had regular visits from the fox, sometime he would play with Iki, or just some days the would be a bag full of berries, fruits ... the most we have gotten was a whole dead boar and a little sachet of rare herbs when Iki caught a disease that could only be healed with that herb."
at this point of the wild storytelling, gears were turning in their guests' minds things were adding up and things were also confusing the two warriors.
"Nawu-chan says he wove us so he gives us stuwf" the toddler who was quiet for a while, absently playing with her bunny suddenly spoke up again, apparently still paying attention.
karin returns to Iki. " Iki-chan, Do you know how Naru-chan is making your dada's crops big?".
Iki giggles at Karin like the redhead sounded silly, which the redhead felt like when she got laughed at.
Sasuke turns around covering his mouth with his hand to conceal a laugh with a cough, Karin noticed this and sent daggers at the raven.
that is until Iki spoke again.
"Nawu-chan can't do that!" this time Iki turned her head towards Sasuke to explain the next part.
"Nawu-chan said , Inawi-kami is helping Dada."
