Chapter 2 - The paths

In the world of Lowesia, a place born in between balance itself, resides living creatures. Beasts, spirits, Maecha and Lowesians.

In this world yhere are two kinds of Lowesian namely; the Inbrings and the Hosts.

The inbrings are the people who come from earth having died with no place to belong and end up on Lowesia.

Their appearances on Lowesia are scarce ranging from one percent per century to zero point zero zero zero three percent per after century.

A hundred years?! Yes and so this would raise many questions like do Lowesians age differently? Do they have children? Do they have cultures? What paths do they take if so? And if this is a place of arrival after death is there a death after?

And yes, Lowesians do age just much slower in a century which called an olid in their perception of it. Like say a new born Lowesian can grow in a century and be called 20 olidian meaning their in their practical '20s' for that time.

Meaning that they can grow to be centuries and centuries old. Which also answers the question about reproduction in which the answer is a 'yes' they do reproduce. But not so often. In a quarter olid (25 years), The number if children produced can be numbered to about only a million until after the next three quarters of the olid is finished.

And so this brings us to answer the next question about their cultures. Do they share a single culture world wide?

No, in Lowesia there are about three continents. Apexia, Xeemus and Fortclovus.

The Apexia content which is largest spanning at a land area of over 42 million square kilometres which has given it many advantages like being located in almost all geographical climate zones,but stretches from the north to the south pole of Lowesia and is referred to as 'The Eye of Lowesia' as once every 2 olids Lowesia rotates in its axis and impossiblely yet simply turns sideways which does change its seasons but also causes the catalyst event known as the great vision which will be looked onto later on.

Xeemus which is second largest spanning at a land area of over 20.88 million square kilometres which is located in the worst climate regions of Lowesia.

And Fortclovus which is the smallest continent among three spanning at a land area of over 16 million square kilometres byt having at advantage jn being located in the most advantageous climate regional zone of Lowesia.

Xeemus is largest populated continent with over 230 million Lowesians living there. Fortclovus is the second most populated with a population of over 130million Lowesians living over there. And lastly and most surprisingly Apexia with the lowest population count of over 2 million Lowesians living there and what's even more discerning about it its that the population living there is reduces more and more per every three quarters olids.

In the world of Lowesia, there are six tribes that originate from 2 ethnic groupd namely; the Oklards and the Hearthe ethnic groups.

Lowesians from the Oklard ethnic group are characterised to be to mostly be tall, slim, white, peach and brown skinned with dark or brown hair. Their main hairstyle is in the form of smooth short, long, curled or flowy hair. And the three tribes that branch off from it are the: Namute, Shoshwa and Fortclovia tribes which will be looked much further into as the story progresses.

And from the Hearthe ethnic group the Lowesian are often characterised to be fairly tall or short. Have dark, chocolate or earth skin. Their hair colors are white, blond and dark hair. Their hair styles are locs, dreads and buzz cuts. And the three tribes that branch off from the ethnic group are the: Kakera, Osho and Chigwe tribes.

What makes them unique are the abilities that they possess with each different tribe and clan alike which will be looked onto as we go further into the story.

In this case in order to inherit those abilities one must become an Emolit which is taken through the path of Embroidery.

This leads us to topic of where all this began.

The paths.

Which are categorised into two namely; the normality and Embroidery paths.

The normality path is the path one takes when a Lowesian chooses to live a normal life and act as a kind of 'support' as they call it in Lowesia.

The second and least taken path is the embroidery path. Which is taken by those who wish to spend their lives in arts of martial activities and so on. Hence they undergo a ritual which is called The Rite Of Chord Bondage. Which is said to give one the abilities to bond with one of the two Lowesian Deities. Namely;

Grox and Ryid the Deities of Emo-craft.
