"Ah, I see you're up son. We have much to talk about." His father said with a smile. "Hon, are you feeling alright," his mother asked. "I told you already Lisa that the boy just fine," His father told his mother. "Can't I baby him just a little now that he got his blessing." She said in a knowing tone.

"Yes, about that. Son, please stay still." Kaden father said as he reached his hand over placing it on Kaden's head. "Sorry if that hurt a bit but without knowing your personal chant recovering this book would be quite hard." His father said. "Chad, do you have to be so ruff, you know that's part of his soul you just forcefully removed," Lisa said as she glared at her husband.

The bickering of his parents went over Kaden's head as for the moment his father hand had touched his head. Kaden felt pain and dizziness a lot like the other day but not as severe. He could not hear nor did he see what his father had removed. His mother was quick to act as she placed a cup of water in his hands. Holding it steady for him she ordered him to "Drink".

The water went down smooth and it helped him to clear his head. He took a couple more sips before he turned his attention to his parents. Both of whom had big grins on their face as if Christmas had come early. It was still a week away Kaden thought to himself.

"Son, we are so proud of you right now. Look see this book its called a Grimoire and it's yours." His father said as he handed Kaden back his bronze book. "Go ahead and open it to the first page," his mother encouraged.

The little bronze book was as plain looking as it was the other day. It no longer held any special glow. The lack of a t.i.tle on the cover made Kaden think it was a journal. Kaden nodded his head for a second before turning the page to the first page of his Grimoire. To his surprise, it held a picture of himself along with some contact information.

"See son the first page is the binding page. It was deemed that after the second world war that all Grimoire would need this page added. That was a b.l.o.o.d.y war and almost an end to our house. Your grandfather fought as a Highborn in that war and he like many other Highborns lost his book in the fight. After that tragic event the Elder Counsel that rules over us Highborns changed the Grimoire law. They include that intro page in hopes that the books could be returned to their owners." His father explained.

On the first page of is grimoire, it read:

"Turn the page to see your blessing," Lisa said and Chad nodded. Kaden was confused but figured his parents would tell him the detail of what was going on once all the excitement calm down. He did as his mom had asked and turn the page. On the Top of the second page in bold print read:

"Stars of Destiny hmm, dad has a book about that. I'll be right back" Said Chad and with a s.h.i.+mmer of light, he was gone from his seat. "Always the overexcited one," Kaden mother Lisa said as she shook her head. "Anyways son, don't mind your father he will be back soon. I'm sure you have a lot of question but do not worry we are here for you" She added then gave her son a pat on his head.

"A lot of question is the understatement of the year." Kaden huff under his breath. His mother giggled at his expense and before she could retort Kaden father pop back in the room with a large thick book that was t.i.tled The Collect Lore of the 108 Stars of Destiny.

"This book is probably the best for what your Grimoire is focused on. Dad wrote it a long time ago when he toured China." Chad mused before handing it to Kaden. "Its what gave me my love for Chinese culture and one of the reasons I was so attracted to your mother. Its probably because of her family line that you are blessed with an Asian mythos." Chad added before being smacked on the head by his wife.

"Yes, well I think now there no more arguments about sending Kaden to my grandmother now is there, honey," Lisa said with an innocent smile that sent s.h.i.+vers down both Kaden and Chads spines. "Before all that Mom, Dad can you both please tell me what on earth going on." Kaden pleaded and subconsciously pushed the thought of having to spend time with that dictator of a woman out of his mind. "I think its best for your father to explain. I'll go now and make us some breakfast I'm sure your hungry." Lisa stated as she stood up to make her way to the kitchen.

"Well, the world that you know is way more complicated then what you have to be taught." Chad paused a moment to make sure he had Kaden undivided attention. "You see this universe is way more complex then you can think. I guess the easiest for you to understand is that we live in a multiverse full with infinite possibilities. All these other planes for a better word start from a single point. Here," Chad pointed to the ground. "In the Prime Universe. It's here we Highborn prefer to live even if the Lowborns are slowly destroying this planet we continue on in our lives not interfering in their affairs. Earth is after all just one small dot in a vast ocean full of life. Though our family and many others prefer earth to other places. It is after all our home planet."

Chen held up his hand to stop Kaden from interrupting him. "As to why we distinguish between us and them and as to why we never bother to tell you about this til now. Well, not everybody can awaken to be a Highborn even if he was born between two Highborn parents. Your mother and I just wish for you to have a normal life if the gift chose to pa.s.s you by. Binding a Grimoire is what we call the gift. Grimoires are as old as time itself and its a Highborns job to keep the prime universe in balance and to govern the infinite planes of existence." He then waved his hand and a large platinum colored book pop into existence.

"This is my grimoire Ljosalfheim, it connects the realm Álfheimr and it's of the Norse Mythos. I'm able to summon elemental spirits beside powerful Light Elves to fight by my side. It also has many different spells that I have master over the years that grant me different powers." Chad explained.

"Fire is my blood, running thru its course Eldr I summon thy. " Chad chanted and a small flame shot out the palm of his hand. He closed his hand into a fist and the flame disappeared. "It's one of the first chants I learn in school," Chad said with a smile. "That was so cool, dad will I be able to do that too," Kaden said excited for the first time since he woke up.

"Haha, I'm sure you will learn something similar to its effect but we are of different mythos so your chants will be very different from mine," Chad told his son. "Grimoire follow different mythos. Like mine is from the Norse G.o.ds. Your mother's Grimoire is from Chinese Lore like yours. Hers is base on the journey to the west and she is able to summon Sun Wukong beside many other beings from the Jade Palace. But I digress. Back to the main topic Grimoires each have a name and by knowing its name your able to unlock its full potential. You see each Grimoire is a Key that unlocks a Door do different realities and its powers represent those places. With my grimoire, I can go to the elven realm and your mother with hers can go to the Jade Palace. We are able to contract the beings that reside there to be our partners."

Chad pause to make sure Kaden was still paying attention. To Chad's pause, Kaden nodded indicated he was listening. "You can say I'm the overseer of Álfheimr. Not its king or any anything like that just a hidden guardian that preserve its survival. Once you graduate for Edensburg the school me and your mother went to you will gain access to your own realm. For now, just read your grandfather book to better understand your grimoire. Everything else will be explained when you start school." Chad said and started to stand up.

"Dad, "Kaden spoke up and grab his father hand. "I do have one question though. What age will the students be in this new school?" Kaden asked. "Haha, it's a Highschool son so what age do you think the others will be. You have another year before you can even enter it. That's why your mom said we will be sending you to her Grandma.

Grandma Mia, the thought sent s.h.i.+vers down both Chad and Kadens backs. Somewhere in an ancient Chinese mansion on the Himalayas Mountain Range, a young looking beauty sneezed. "Wonder who thinking about me," she pondered before going back to the stew that was slowly cooking on the hearth.
