Aishi's four elements were earth, fire, water, and wind.
Large numbers of elemental creatures were born because of these four elements. Mages also pursued their own path of magic based on these four elements.
Aishi wasn't the only one who believed that the four elements formed the foundation of this world. Back on Earth, there were similar views.
As for the ancient philosophers who pursued the truth of the world, they investigated and extended the essence of earth, fire, water, and wind. In their relatively mainstream point of view, the four elements of earth, fire, water, and wind actually represented solids, liquids, gases, and plasma. Together, they formed the world.
Or, conversely, any part of the world could be classified into one of these four categories.
Perhaps it was a necessity, or perhaps it was just a coincidence, but Ansorenne's First Born, Titan, was also divided into four major elements: mountain, fire, sea, and thunder.
Titan, in the language of the Titan, meant "as tough as a rock". The Titan who loved the earth used this name to refer to themselves.
According to the narrator, the mountain Titan was probably the most gentle of all the Titan. At the same time, this was also the faction that the volcano Titan Finnstrand was in.
"… I thought you were in the fire faction. After all, you and your kingdom are filled with the aura of fire. "
"No, little one, I was indeed in the midst of fire and lava. But in the end, I discovered that there were some differences between me and them. They, how should I put it, were far too 'boiling' … So, I'm now lying underneath them."
"As far as I know, the Aishi's Titan aren't so different from you."
"Those distant brothers are different from us. What they returned, we've always had …"
Those familiar with Aishi history would know that as the First Born of Aishi, the Titan were probably the earliest creation of the Aishi. They were born to protect and repair this world.
As the creators and protectors of this world, the Aishi even gave them the authority to control some of the world's laws … But reality proved that a good craftsman wasn't a good bureaucrat. This was especially true for the Titans, who were far too crude and direct in their thinking. This was practically a disaster for weaker species.
For example, when the earth was in a drought, the Titan who controlled rainstorms would make it rain. But to the Titans, this rain was only used to nourish the earth, but to the weak mortal life forms, it was a great flood with the nature of genocide.
And when the Titans changed the shape of the mountains and adjusted their daily work areas and pet residences, they could cause mortal villages to fall into a bottomless abyss.
"The Titan's enormous body allowed him to see more than what most mortal species could see. Without sufficient senses and vision, how could he be a qualified manager?"
At that time, an ancient human sage had pointed out the natural authority of these gigantic lifeforms as managers.
The Titans' vision and position were far, far too far away from being managed. They were no longer in the realm of management.
After a series of problems occurred, the Titan finally returned their authority to their mother.
And their mother, the Aishi, created the Gods, a job class that specialized in carrying out the world's authority … Of course, this went a bit overboard, but that wasn't the content of this book.
Ansorenne's situation was somewhat different. Not only were the Four Elemental Planes undivided, this was also a world without Gods.
It was precisely because of the fact that there were no Gods that all ambitious individuals in Eich came here in droves. However, there was a small problem here. If there were no Gods in this world, then who would be in control of the world's laws?
What happened next was only natural.
Just like the immemorial Aishi, Ansorenne's Titan still held authority. But due to their natural disadvantages in certain areas, they weren't qualified managers. All of Ansorenne's natural laws were actually quite problematic.
There would be no harm without comparison. When the Aishi's bloodline brothers showed them the truth about their homeworld, no matter how arrogant the Titan were, they knew that they didn't do a good job.
At the very least, the magical mist that covered everything and took away all light was an undeniable fact.
The foundational reason for the magical mist's formation was the incredibly dense Elemental Tide. And if the Elemental Tide wanted to divert the Elemental Tide, then creating four Elemental Gods and dividing the Elemental Planes would be just like using four artificial lakes to divert the Elemental Rivers away from the most dangerous areas. Theoretically speaking, this was a completely feasible plan.
At the very least, most of the Titan leaders had already decided on what to do after repeated discussions.
That's right, it was the Titan leaders, not the Titan leaders. The Titan of this plane had long since split into four major factions.
The Titans of Mountain, Fire, Sea, and Thunder. These were the four major elements of Eich. Each of them held the power and authority of this world. And, this power and authority constantly affected the Titans, causing them to be different from the other Titans of Eich.
Just like how the four major Elemental Gods were hostile to each other, certain elements were naturally hostile to each other. This caused their societies to be embroiled in civil wars for a long period of time.
Rorschach definitely didn't know how long the civil war lasted or how it ended. But what he did know was that the unlucky Titan sealed underground before him was probably the loser of that civil war.
"In that case, the Titan from the mine should be a member of the thunder Titan faction … Perhaps the entire wasteland belongs to the thunder Titan faction. But why would the mountain Titan faction be sealed under a volcano …?"
Unfortunately, Rorschach was unable to obtain an answer.
After giving Rorschach a bunch of things, the Titan leader fell silent. No matter how Rorschach asked, he was unable to obtain an answer.
But at the very least, Rorschach now knew what he needed to do.
