1. The Origin of Beast Taming
Long ago, before human civilizations rose, Elyndor was ruled by Primordial Beasts — immense, almost divine creatures that shaped the land:
Mountains rose from their claws
Rivers flowed from their breath
Storms raged at their whim
Humans and elves were weak and preyed upon by these creatures.
The first tamers arose by forming contracts with weaker beasts, learning to control and coexist with them.
Key Inventions:
Soul Contracts: Link between tamer and beast; trust strengthens power
Evolution Sight (lost skill): Rare bloodline ability that could see hidden evolution paths
Beast Cores: Crystallized energy of beasts used for power, evolution, and artifacts
2. Races of Elyndor

3. Ancient Wars
The Beast Wars (500 years ago): Humans and elves fought alongside tameable beasts to claim territory
Legendary tamers emerged; Volt ancestors rose to prominence
Many beasts were lost or sealed after the war, giving rise to modern scarcity
Some war-era relics still exist, granting hidden power to tamers
4. Volt Bloodline History
The Volt family mastered lightning beasts and ocular evolution arts
Lost Evolution Sight for 200 years after a rebellion by a rogue Volt ancestor
Maintains political control in Arclight Dominion
Keeps rare evolution artifacts and secret knowledge
Some branches value strength, others caution — internal conflict
5. Beast Types and Ecosystems

Elemental Beasts: Fire, Ice, Storm, Earth, Water
Spirit Beasts: Forest, desert, or water spirits
Cursed / Shadow Beasts: Found in Umbravale, often hidden
Rare Variants: Trish Beast lineage; small or weak beasts that can become powerful
6. Evolution Mechanics
Early tamers thought evolution was random
Ancient texts revealed materials + bond + environmental triggers
Evolution Sight allowed Volt heirs to see every branch, including hidden and forbidden paths
Some evolutions require soul resonance, or emotional breakthroughs
