So my sky au
Ranting time
Its like a successor au. The trials of prophecy are how a skykid is chosen for each realm to be taught by the current elder. Every generation has different abilities with light. As the skykid grows up, they eventually lose the ability to fly and can take off their cape.
I have the valley apprentices designed but it might change later on because its a little too simple for me
Before the twins there was only one valley elder but because the realm is used to having both of them, Samekh decided to choose two skykids (after some convincing of the other elders)
Skykids wear similar outfits to their mentors during their apprenticeship but when they’ve grown up they have the option to change their outfit but must stick with it after they choose what they want. They cant change again.
A skykid is chosen every 100 years (cuz yes) and trained for as long as needed since everyone learns differently. But there is a set date for when the elders pass their status on. If one skykid isnt ready by then, the date is pushed back for about 2 weeks.
To fit in with my journey samekh hc, the skykid the last elder chose backed down just weeks before the ceremony and there wasnt enough time to choose another. Because Samekh was already being trained to be a priest when they fell, they took their place, only being needed to be taught about the light, the realms and their responsibility as elder.
And since skykids didnt exist for a period of time, the elders were made by megabird before everything went wrong. The elders post-game have been there for far more years than they shouldve because of megabird giving up on the ancestors. (Samekh shows up before this being trained alongside daleth, ayin, teth, tsadi and lamed) They had started losing hope waiting for so long until the first star fell and more and more skykids showed up. Sir Prophecy and his prophets were recruited to test a chosen group and the best of the best were chosen as apprentices.
Its still a little in progress but i have a solid idea of where i want this to go. I probably wont make a fanfic since i have one im working on rn. So instead cuz i like sharing things i love, you can ask the apprentices and elders stuff, kinda like an askblog. All elders are open and only the valley apprentices are open rn. Art wont be in every answer cuz im lazy and currently packing. ^^
