The Old Litany

[...] They stood together under the same flag
Who never saw the light of day
For guide their destinies those who embroidered shield.
Among the brave of Arkâlia,
As the story of all was
The pure blood of men running through his veins
Flower Jade  Wield
And so
that is Shadows banished [...]

Excerpt from the Litany of the Jade Flower.

Much of this epic fantasy saga story knot is weaves through quotations and interpretations of mythical and historical texts which raise many of the prophecies, legends and keys necessary to understand Jade Flower as a whole.

The Litany of the Old Jade Flower.

The Litany of Jade Flower (gives its name to the sagais) perhaps is the most decisive text to serve as the basis for all others and therefore the piece with which everything becomes movement. This is an old text in verse, a great poem, lost for the most part (not preserved original surviving pieces are alleged elf fragmentary copies which doubts its authenticity), author unknown and whose writing is lost in the roots of time.The Litany speaks of the first cosmogony, so that the genesis of the first Gods is the mythical age, the creation of the world and battles between different factions of deities to Prince Kaos exile after being defeated by humans with help Jade Flower, a powerful weapon created by the Gods Light for that purpose. Itself, is nothing more than an ancient mythological tale that tells the origin of the world, which was taken home by the cultures that subsequently inherit the earth. His main point is more mysterious in the decisive action that gives humans the world in those early days, a secondary race would take long time to find its preeminence in the political and cultural (possible human origin of the text?). Its remoteness in time and its many shades of this text would something classic and owner of an attraction and special consideration to be the basis for most of later traditions.
