Chapter 0 - Prologue
Prologue
There are mysterious races in the world whose true nature has yet to be revealed. The race known as the Chosen Clan can be considered one of these enigmatic races.
‘Clonne.’
In an ancient language, this translates to “those loved by nature.”
Their appearance is not significantly different from that of humans. The most prominent features are their exceptionally tall stature and consistently beautiful appearance.
They were particularly sensitive to changes in the weather. They conversed with plants and animals and could communicate with spirits without the need for contracts.
They were also renowned as great healers and apothecaries, possessing extraordinary abilities to create rare elixirs and easily heal critically ill patients.
Unfortunately, their whereabouts are now completely unknown. Only occasional records of their existence appear in ancient texts.
Whether they wished to keep the reasons for their disappearance hidden, or if they became extinct, is still unknown. As a result, the existence of the Clonne remains a contested topic among scholars.
