The Legend of the Golden Weapons:
In the most ancient times, when the world was just being created and the elements had not yet obeyed the laws of nature, the First Golden Master from Clan Seiken forged six powerful weapons, each embodying one of the primary elements. These weapons were entrusted to the Six Great Clans to protect the world from chaos, which threatened to emerge from the depths of dark forces.
There are Seven Great Clans, but only six of them received a Golden Weapon. The last clan, Clan Seiken, was given a different role—to be the guardian of balance, as its power did not require the form of a weapon.
Clan Kaiyen, embodying fire, received the Flaming Katana. This katana, with its blazing blade, not only ignites flames but also warns of approaching danger with its powerful waves of fire. In the hands of a true master of fire, this weapon can absorb flames and amplify them to immeasurable levels.
Clan Terran, connected to the earth, received the Scythe of Earthquakes—a massive scythe capable of causing earthquakes. Its strikes shake the land itself, and the weapon can tear through rock and soil, granting its wielder strength comparable only to the raw power of mountains.
Clan Mizugami, masters of water, received the Trident of the Depths. This trident does more than control water—it can summon tsunamis, call forth rain, and even allow its wielder to breathe underwater while manipulating currents at will.
Clan Raiji, bonded with lightning, received the Storm Blade. Every strike of this sword is accompanied by devastating lightning that tears through the sky and ground alike. This weapon is one of speed and power, capable of delivering blows as mighty as the roar of thunder.
Clan Yukiseyu, rulers of ice, received the Crystal of Frost. This magical crystal can freeze anything in its path. Its power extends over vast areas, freezing rivers, oceans, and sometimes even the air itself.
Clan Hirao, embodying wind, received the Blade of the Winds. Its blade is as light as air yet sharp enough to cut through the strongest metals. This sword grants its wielder control over the winds, allowing them to summon storms, create tornadoes, and even lift themselves into the sky. In the hands of a true master of wind, its strongest strike can unleash hurricanes that destroy everything in their path.
After each clan received its weapon, the younger son of the First Golden Master, consumed by darkness, sought to gather all the Golden Weapons to subjugate the world. His elder brother challenged him, and after an intense battle, he managed to defeat him.
Realizing the danger, the First Golden Master hid the Golden Weapons, leaving no trace of their whereabouts—except for a scroll containing clues, which he entrusted to his elder son. This scroll would help him find elemental masters from each clan to save the world when darkness rose again.
