Ever since she was a child, Ye Jiao was treated as a trash in Chen Kingdom. Suffered from countless beating and humiliation, Ye Jiao endured the harsh life without able to do anything. Only a rare few of them cared for her and gave her warmth in the harsh world. But the Heaven didn’t give her any chance to live peacefully. It took the little things she had and pushed her into the bottom abyss. Filled with despair and sadness, she had to hide and bid her time for a lot of people wished for her death. “I have lost everything; you can’t take anything else from me. But I too will gain much more in my path as Eon Energy Master, I’ll not give up and someday, I’ll reach the peak.” Her small arm picked up the white lily flower and gripped it tighter with determination flashed in her eyes. Trash? Her small lips smiled in a tinged of mockery. Even if everyone around her wished to kill her, she would never give up. She will show them who the real trash is and become the greatest genius in the world! Even if the entire world is against her, she would not cower. She will reach the peak.

Attending the Spark Ceremony is mandatory for all Scintilla citizens when they turn twenty. With spark ignition at an all-time low of five percent, it must be closely monitored and controlled. Join the newly ignited charges of S.W.O.R.D. Academy as they try to tame their awakened air, earth, fire, or water spark. Will they achieve glorious balance with their spark? Or will the feral, awakened beast eat them for dinner and everyone else for dessert? A/N: This is a plot-driven story (7 POVs, something for everyone) with some slow burn romance(s). It doesn't blaze dead bang at the beginning for most of the characters. That fire has to be stoked. It's silly more than serious, adventure more than mystery.

The universe was a vast, empty, dark, and uncaring place. Then life happened, and the universe was changed forever. Only a teeny-tiny bit, but definitely different. Then again, the universe changes a teeny-tiny bit every second of every day. For instance, if someone were to get off the couch and randomly drink a glass of milk? Bam! One less glass of milk in the universe. Changed forever. Well, excluding any time-travel shenanigans, but anyone who puts a big old hole in the time-space continuum just to un-drink a glass of milk should really reevaluate their priorities. Unless, of course, they were attempting to prevent some massive catastrophe vis-a-vis said glass of milk. Such a scenario is by no means impossible, as one should never underestimate the importance of calcium. Another important tip for any life forms out there is to keep things in perspective. Some look at the vastness of creation in relation to themselves and go, Man, this sucks!' These people really need to narrow their focus. Sure, they will never affect anything happening on the other end of the galaxy, but so what? That's way the heck over there, where it doesn't matter. Therefore, in order to maintain a healthy mindset, it is important to narrow one's perspective to the things and people that affect them, and that they can affect in turn. But what happens if one is an unfathomable cosmic being from beyond the veil of reality? What happens when such an existence is capable of influencing entire swathes of the universe just by its presence? A creature such as Magh'rathlak the Observer? That particular entity is only about average as far as reality-warping creatures from the dawn of time go, so its influence over the fabric of reality is rather limited. And it still struggles to keep things in perspective. That, among other things, is why it decided to narrow its worldview a bit by compressing the maddening vastness of its being into a single corporeal form. Magh'rathlak had never tried such a feat, but that wasn't about to stop it. After all, how hard could being human possibly be?
