The Legend of Karost

Welcome To Hell

Vampires and werewolves have always been a common threat amongst the human race. Unfortunately for them, the humans evolved and bred rapidly, causing them to over populate and spread their species all over the world, destroying nature's beauty.

After the humans killed most of these magical creatures, the rare few that survived went into hiding. As their species spent thousands of years reproducing and keeping themselves from going extinct, they developed the ability to blend in with the humans and live peacefully among them.

Unfortunately, they had to disguise themselves, control their powers, and the worst of all was it was forbidden to fall in love with a human. The creatures who broke any of these rules, especially the third one, were sentenced to death in order to protect their kind.

Every spring, they held the biggest challenge of the year. All creatures who turn 16 are to face a series of challenges depending of their species and rank in order to prove their worthiness of being in their society. Those who fail these challenges, are either banished from their territory or sentenced to death.

These challenges are held on an island that no human has ever been to before. The island was split into four classes. The first class is the magic class. This class is the smartest of all classes. They are fairies, witches, wizards, etc.

The second class is the predator class. They are zombies, vampires, aliens, ect. They are the most dangerous class since they can manipulate humans and blend into them better than any other creature.

The third class is the changing class. They are the strongest class. They have the ability to shift between human and animal. Most only have one theriotype or kintype. Those who have two are honored with the alpha rank. It is rare for anyone to have more than two. Those who do are legendary and considered Gods or Goddesses.

The last class is the beast class. This class is the bravest class. They are ogres, giants, trolls, ect. This class is made up of all creatures who are far from human. They are very brave, but not very smart. All four classes are special in their own unique ways.

The mystical blue ocean surrounded each ship with an endless view of water. Many of the young onboard the ships were confused, bored, and even seasick. No one knew how much longer it would be before the large wooden vessels would stop rocking back and forth, dancing with the oceans small ripples.

A stern voice echoed throughout the thick humid air, loud enough for the neighboring ships to hear. The man to whom the voice belonged to stood on the peak of the main mast where everyone could see him. "Straight up ahead, there is a portal that leads to the island where all of you young creatures will be competing! The portal is strong and only allows creatures like us inside! Any and all humans who try to enter through this portal will be disintegrated immediately!"

He pauses for a second as he looks around at all the horrified faces. He clears his throat calmly before continuing. "Do not stick any body parts outside of the ships walls while going through the portal! Although it can not kill us 'non humans', it can severely damage your young fragile bodies!"

All the young creatures look around the ocean bewildered as they did not see anything but water for miles. Suddenly, without any warning, a strong force surrounded all the ships and living organisms onboard. The force of the portal was enough to make some of the creatures feel sick or even fall unconscious.

It wasn't long before all ships were successfully through the portal. on the other side, creatures were gasping in disbelief of the new world around them. The water was clear and you could see millions of colorful fish and plants underneath the oceans surface. The sky was like looking faintly out into the galaxy. Every colour swirled together beautifully like the perfect painting.
