“What do you think an artist is? An imbecile who only has eyes, if he is a painter, or ears if he is a musician, or a lyre in every chamber of his heart if he is a poet, or even, if he is a boxer, just his muscles? Far from it: at the same time he is also a political being, constantly aware of the heartbreaking, passionate, or delightful things that happen in the world, shaping himself completely in their image. How could it be possible to feel no interest in other people, and with a cool indifference to detach yourself from the very life which they bring to you so abundantly? No, painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war.”

The town is home to us differents, people who posses unearthly and inhuman abilities. These people are the Elementals, gifted with the power to control one out of the four elements. Of these elements, there is fire, water, air, and earth.

It used to simply be fire against water and air against earth- now, it has infected the courts every way around. And it’s only getting worse as time goes by. Every year, there is what we like to call a Masquerade Celebration that lasts for a month. This custom was started in order to try and break down the barriers between each court. Decorations cover the town to expand the festive mood. During this time, any Elemental younger than 17 is sent to stay with a relative out of town since this is the age they begin learning to control their powers. A mask is required while out in the town during this month. It has become known for the couples created- in fact, most teen Elementals’ parents met during their Masquerade Celebration. Each division of the Elementals also has both one guy and one girl Elder. These Elders are the people who have been chosen as a means of peaceful communication between the divisions. Occasionally, there will be a relationship between the two Elders, but it doesn’t happen often. It has never been known to happen between two Elders in different courts. No one is quite sure how it is done, but when an Elemental becomes an Elder, somehow the aging process slows down. The eight current Elders are hundreds of years old by now, giving them time to have practiced becoming stoic and indifferent to the dramas surrounding the Elementals’ courts. It is mandatory for at least one Elder from every division to attend the Masquerade Celebration, though most of the time their attitude toward it is indifferent. ...more
