The Delnor people were once the greatest civilization on Earth, ruling their empire called Dellavein (after their queen) and serving the one true God, Elëázar. Dellavien was established (2300 BC) forty-eight years after the Great Deluge (2348 BC). The catastrophic event where water had broken forth from the depths of the Earth and flooded the entire world. All those who dwelled on the Earth after the Great Deluge, had descended from a single family who survived the flood. A man and his wife, and his three sons and their wives and children. The family multiplied vastly and from them came all the nations on Earth, including the Delnor people, named after their patriarch, Delnor who was a child on the ark. 

The world became frozen in a partial ice age after the flood waters receded back into the Earth, for the water had cooled the Earth. The ice disguised that the land had broken apart from the flood. The Great Deluge had split apart the supercontinent, cracking it into the tectonic plates, when the fountains of the deep had broken forth from inside the Earth to flood the surface. No one anticipated what was to come next, or that the land would soon start to drift and tear apart into separate continents. While Delnor himself ruled as the first king of his people, competing empires rose to power, such as Egypt (2294 BC) and Babylon (2231 BC) were established and with their forming cultures came the idea of new gods, whom the Delnor called the morrs. These morrs were demonic spirits opposing Elëázar, aiming to divert humanity's loyalty. At this time the Delnor stayed faithful to Elëázar, and Elëázar blessed them with the Delnor Senses (senses going beyond the five that every human is born with. Some Delnor could now talk to animals, whereas others could dream the future, and there were even some who could persuade someone to do or feel anything). These supernatural senses were given to help them resist the temptation of magic, which the morr’s offered as an incitement for humans to worship them instead of the Elëázar. The Delnor knew Elëázar was the Maker who had created the Earth, which they called Terra, and all of mankind. To keep distance from the morrs, the Delnor relinquished much land to Babylon and Egypt and relocated to the North, an area now known as Europe. Today’s Europe was known by the name of the Delnor’s empire then, it was called The Lands of Dellavein. However, Europe was far grander in size in those days, having more physical land than the continent existing today.

Time passed and King Delnor passed his throne to his son, King Strightus of Delnor. King Strightus was not like his father, he did not love the Maker and he led the people to forget their God and integrated morrs into their belief system, for he desired magic. King Strightus made the morr Mortifer, the most powerful demon, his favorite god. 

While King Strightus reigned, the ice began to melt as the Earth started to thaw out in the year 2070 BC. Without the ice, the land was no longer held together as one mass. The cracks in Terra began to reveal themselves and the Lands of Dellavein began to tear apart over the next seventy years. King Strightus feared losing his land and his morr-god Mortifer could do nothing to help him stop the lands from separating. When the king lost entire continent-size chunks of his empire, as they drifted across the sea or fell into it, he realized he had no choice but to beseech the Maker, the god of his ancestors, the one who was powerful enough to flood the world he made and save those who worshiped Him. So King Strightus called on Elëázar by name and said if Elëázar would preserve his lands then he would serve only Elëázar as his god. Elëázar answered and said he would save The Lands of Dellavien, but not to earn the current king’s insincere worship, but for His father's sake, and for those of his people who had continued to worship Him faithfully despite King Strightus teaching them about the morrs. For many of the Delnor people held to the old ways and worshiped the Maker still as the one true God. The Maker then told the king he would preserve the Lands of Dellavien by placing them into a new dimension, into a second world (which the Maker said would be called Evynlore). A place where the land would remain in its current formation. 

The Maker had one requirement for the king to follow, and that was that the new world would be a world without magic or morrs. If the king broke this covenant, Elëázar warned, it would bring about the distraction of both worlds. The king agreed to the covenant, but soon King Strightus realized he would not be satisfied being separated from his gods, the morrs, for without them he would lose his magic and he had become a mighty sorcerer.

King Strightus had no children yet, but devised a plan on how to trick the Maker so that magic could come with him into Evynlore. He went to Mortifer and asked him for a cup full of his blood, so that he may drink it and become part morr. Mortifer, understanding his whole plan, agreed and gave him the blood he asked for. King Strightus drank, swearing himself bound to Mortifer and his blood. He then conceived a child with his wife so that the child would be born with the ability of magic, for morr DNA would run in its veins. Mortifer had told the king this ability would only carry over to his first born, and only that child would be able to create portals between the worlds to allow the morrs into Evynlore.

The time came to go to Evynlore, for the Maker told them the new world was ready. Elëázar had not only made a new world for them but also built a great city called Jebel and filled it with all the provisions the Delnor people would need to start their new lives in prosperity, for they were many. But before he called them to gather together he appeared before the king and queen as a person made of starlight, and he spoke.

He told the king he knew the evil he and Mortifer committed, and that he had polluted his first born child with the DNA of a morr. Queen Telleah was faint with fear when hearing that her husband had orchestrated such deception, broke his oath to the Maker, and done both without her knowledge. The Maker told the king the child would be born before they went to Evynlore and the child must remain here on Earth, for if the child came to Evynlore it would cause the eventual end of the worlds, and the imedaint end of the child’s life for it was now bound to whichever world Mortifer dwelled in. He added, and if the king accomplished his plan of allowing morrs into Evynlore through the child’s cursed blood it would bring about his own early death. Then Elëázar left.

Telleah went into labor early the next morning. She did not tell her husband for now she feared him, and to her surprise she gave birth to twins. She told her maidservant to track which was the elder, but after both were cleaned and she had rested the maid admitted she had mixed both boys up and no longer knew which child was the first born. Telleah looked at her children anxiously, and after a long moment chose one. She told the maid to take the child which she with her motherly glance believed was the first born, and to give it to a family who wanted it but would care for it. She told the maid they must not know it was a prince and no one, especially the king, should know that she gave birth to twins. When Telleah told her maid the world’s fate rested on the secret the maid obeyed and kept silent.

Then all the Delnor people, along with King Strightus, Telleah and their son Shadden made themselves ready to go to the new world. For Mortifer had pointed out to the king that Elëázar must be lying for why would he worry the king would secede bringing morrs into Evynlore through the child’s blood if the child was to die immediately upon entering Evynlore? Telleah secretly hoped in her heart she had chosen the right child so that both may live, she feared Elëázar’s warning, even if she did not follow Him as her god. She knew he was more powerful than the morrs.

They came to a large cave where Elëázar had temporarily connected the worlds so that the people could walk through to Evynlore. When Telleah carried her baby through the cave and into the light she was happy to see that he lived and had not died. She was unsure if that was because Elëázar had lied or if she had chosen the right child, but she was glad either way.

By the time he was five Telleah feared him and started to wonder if he was the first born because of how evil he was for a child. Shadden grew and was stronger, taller, and soon found to be invincible to other men, and demanded the throne from his grandfather at the age of thirty-five (1965 BC). When King Strightus refused to give up his throne, Shadden killed King Strightus with a knife and made himself king. And so King Strightus died as the Maker warned. King Strightus was three-hundred and nineteen years old. King Shadden then married a woman named Neara, and had his own children. His first born was a son, and he named him Natheteron (born 1598 BC), and then he had a daughter named Lahtaynia (1593BC), and a second son named Gesemeron (1585BC), and lastly a second daughter named Sohkatôa (1579BC). It soon became clear that his first born, Natheteron, possessed the qualities of a demi-morrs blood. No one could kill him and he healed from any scratch. Shadden’s other children did not. Clearly the DNA was still passable but only the first born. 

Although Shadden was unkillable he began to feel sick so he summoned his mother and asked her what she knew about the strange illness that increasingly took his vitality away, and she told him what the Maker had warned and what his father’s plan had been for him and why he gave him cursed blood. Shadden was exhilarated to hear he could tare portals in the fabric between the worlds, and by the next day Telleah had to look on the dark shadow which was Mortifer, whom Shadden had let into Evynlore and allowed to possess his body. Telleah then decided she would return to Earth and look for her other son. When Shadden heard of this he allowed her to go.

What Telleah discovered was a very ill man who looked identical to Shadden, but had been named Etharan. She confided in him the truth when she realized both her sons had inherited the morr’s blood for they were both the first of her womb. She called on four of the morrs who could supernaturally communicate with Mortifer and begged them to tell her son Shadden of his brother and that he needed to be refilled with Mortifer’s magic once a year, so that he would not die now that both were four hundred and fifty years old, the curse was kicking in.

Shadden listened and decided to make a portal to allow his brother to be refilled with the magic, but he would not allow his brother into Evynlore since his brother had the DNA ability to kill him and could even be the older and rightful heir. Over the years as the continents on Earth continued to shift, Shadden had to make new portals in different parts of Evynlore to try to find his mother and brother and track where their land mass had moved to in the other dimension, for although Evynlore was its own world they worlds shared coordinates for they were exact copies at one point in time.

Through these other portals the other four morrs who Telleah told Evynlore about went there. Their names are: Lehkeidah, Acoosh, Sardum, Nicell and Freece. Magic was given again to the Delnor by these morrs. Eventually Shadden died but the fate of the worlds had been set into play because of King Strightus’s great sin.

Natheteron took the throne and King Delnor, who was very old but still alive, approached his great grandson and told him of the Maker and that Elëázar could free him of his cursed blood, that he did not need to be evil like his father and serve the morrs. Natheteron listened and was a very loved king by all of Evynlore. Natheteron felt that the world needed to be split between him and his siblings and his siblings children so that it could better be ruled. Because he felt the older generation deserved a larger authority, the world was split into four kingdom realms, and they were called the High kings and Queens, which their oldest first borns would inherit to rule. The other children would be given delegation of  smaller kingdom provinces within the realms to rule. Thus twelve kingdoms in total were made. 

There would’ve been fourteen kingdoms but the two eldest children of King Natheteron’s sister Sohkatôa died before the land delegation was completed, as dividing the lands took one hundred years. It was due to her eldest son that the delegation was becoming a war. Jaiphus wanted all of Evynlore and was willing to side with the morrs and wage a war against Natheteron and all his family. When Seaphus learned his brother planned on killing their mother, he challenged his brother to a duel and struck him down, ending his life and the threat on their mother’s life.

Seaphus was sad to do this and pondered how Evynlore would continue on with morrs and magic let loose in it, corrupting the hearts of men. He knew the prophecy of the world's end that Natheteron had shared about the portals and Shadden blood, and so Seaphus, a devoted follower of the Maker, sought to prevent this disaster and called upon the Maker for a solution. 

Elëázar sent Seaphus a dream of the future, through his given Delnor Sense, showing him what would happen in his lifetime and all the way to the end of Evynlore’s timeline. The Maker sent one of his angelic servants, a strong Malakh named Mydar, to appear before Seaphus in the dream and explain the prophecy to him. Mydar revealed to Seaphus how the evil that King Strightus and Shadden had let into the world would be fixed by a descendant of theirs in the distant future. There would come a child who would bring peace and freedom from the curse. Mydar told Seaphus to write the prophecy down when he woke, for the prophecy would bring hope to all generations. Through the chosen descendant Evynlore would be led back to serving the Maker, magic would be cast out, the morrs bound in the abyss, and a time of peace would come unto the world. So Seaphus wrote the prophecy on twelve scrolls, recording all he had seen through the eyes of a sparrow who flew throughout the elds of time.

This is where book one picks up the story, as Seaphus sits in a little cabin in the woods writing the prophecy of the twelve scrolls, knowing the work of his quill will be his last toil in this life for the he saw the Maker in person and so the Maker told him after the prophecy was written he must come to the Kingdom of Empyrean for no one who sees the Maker’s glory may remain in the lands of mortals.
