WHAT IS COLSENTIA?


Colsentia represents a realm recognized by both the Stelciar and Phosray species as the "dimensional overlap between time and space." The origin and naming of this world, Colsentia, remain uncertain. However, as soon as a Stelciar enters its tenth life, it gains awareness of this existence. Essentially, Colsentia is a parallel dimension existing within the ordinary world. It remains invisible and intangible to Earth's inhabitants, perceivable solely by those possessing a sixth sense. These individuals have attributed various names to Colsentia, such as spirit dimensions, apparitions, and divine entities.

Differences Between Stelciar and Phosray 


While Stelciars remain unseen by Earthlings, Phosrays are a species widely recognized among humans. Similar to familiar animals, Phosrays are regarded as a newfound species discovered within the ocean. Their humanoid features have led humanity to refrain from hunting or breeding them for consumption. Instead, Phosrays are safeguarded under global wildlife regulations, with the belief that harming them contradicts the principles of compassion. Unfortunately, despite these protective measures, illegal trade of Phosrays still persists in certain regions through underground markets.

 

Earthlings Who See the Soul


Stelciars and Voids are both ethereal entities. For the most part, they elude the perception of Earthlings, though there are exceptions. Instances include when a Void holds considerable strength or during a lunar eclipse. People identifying as psychic, mediumistic, or those possessing a sixth sense might catch sight of a Void. Occasionally, even individuals without these special abilities could briefly glimpse a Void passing by. Those who've encountered Voids previously might develop the capacity to "see" things that evade normal sight, enabling them to perceive Stelciars as well. Despite this, the opportunity for such powers to manifest remains restricted, with less than 1% of humans being able to attain them.

Void - The Light Eaters 


Voids are formidable predators existing within the realm of Colsentia. They pose as the ultimate adversaries for both Stelciars and Phosrays, occasionally impacting humans as well.Voids materialize as amorphous, shadowy substances. They usually initiate as minor entities but can amalgamate into larger clusters of matter over time, heightening their danger. Their remarkable trait lies in their ability to morph into a person's deepest fears. Generally unseen by human eyes, a Void can intensify to a visible form if it has absorbed enough light, becoming potent enough to harm humans.Nonetheless, Voids are not fixated on flesh and blood; their interest lies in "light," encompassing hope, benevolence, and strong resolve. Lacking this light, as it fades upon separation from a Stelciar, Voids persist as vengeful spirits, resistant to tranquility, and unwilling to descend into the ocean's depths. Their pursuit revolves around the chase for light—be it firelight, electrical illumination, radiance from Phosrays or Stelciars, or even emanations from energized humans.Key Targets for Voids:

  • Energies of Goodwill
  • The determination within Phosray's radiance
  • Flames of Hope

This fixation drives Voids to pursue Phosrays, sometimes mistaking electricity for light. On occasion, their misguided consumption of electronic devices inadvertently triggers short circuits, shocks, or power outages among humans. 

WHY DO VOID AND STELCIAR FIGHT?


Stelciars undertake the responsibility of tending to departed souls, while Phosrays emerge from the remnants of determination and hope left behind by those souls. Consequently, Stelciars adopt the roles of guardians for serene spirits and defenders of Phosrays—an utter contrast to the malevolent Voids, whose intent is to consume any light, including that of Phosrays. This compelling dynamic compels Stelciars to proactively safeguard the young Phosrays due to their awareness of this threat.
