《The Night the Sky Mourned》1001 Sacred Tales: Era of the Exalted
Advertisement
With the soul of the Asura god destroyed, all their ranks weakened so much as to be insignificant to the armies of men. The day was won, but the price was heavy. 7 Saints, the pinnacles of humanity, the beacons of hope, gave their immortal souls to seal that power. And so it was that men evaded the jaws of desolation once more by the skin of their teeth. But as surely as the sun rises and sets each day, the sea of chaos does not sleep easy for long. New Ashuran were born, albeit significantly weaker than their predecessors. Their corruption would grow out of control if left alone. Men needed new champions if they were to keep this new world they had fought so hard to acquire. Thus they turned to their prayers to the gods once more, and once more they were answered.
While the world was full of cultivators, many of whom would someday become gods themselves, none had the true spark of divinity necessary to push the hoards of Asura back, only to keep them at bay. New lands were forbidden to men by their own lack of power. Until the fateful day that the gods saw fit to grant artifacts. It was not known at the time, but each artifact would serve as a mark of honor to the saints who had held back the tide of destruction before them. These burdens of great power would only ever show themselves in the 7 sacred archetypes: The Sword, The Spear, The Dragoon, The Caster, The Berserker, The Ruler, The Archer.
Despite their cultivation stages being the same as their peers, they were simply… more than others. They grew stronger, understood more, fought harder. They took up their burdens and cultivated with the knowledge that they were the new defenders of men. The last light in the darkness. In time, every land and nation knew of them and worshiped their achievements. It was then that these, the pillars, of humanity would become known as the Exalted.

Anton is a great-grandfather. He is living quite a happy life, despite his advanced age and declining health… until a group of cultivator bandits moves into the area. The nearby guardians of the area, the Order of Ninety-Nine Stars, are unable to track them down as they continue to ravage nearby towns. During one desperate winter Anton is out on a hunt when his family- his entire village- is killed or taken as slaves by the bandits. He lacks the strength to fight them, and he wasn’t even present for their arrival to die with his loved ones. At the pit of his despair, he wonders if he ever had any chance to change things. What could he even do? He cannot even pull his best bow, and his eyesight is failing. If he had been a cultivator… perhaps there might have been a chance, but he was decades- perhaps even most of his life- too late. Notes on cultivation levels: There are five general stages of cultivation, though the fifth is extremely rare. Each cultivation style might have their own name for the stages. 1. Body Tempering 2. Spirit Building/ occasionally System Creation (Ninety-Nine Stars) 3. Constellation Formation (Ninety-Nine Stars) 4. Life Transformation/Galaxy Construction (Ninety-Nine Stars) 5. Ascension Cover picture courtesy of gej302.
