The gatekeepers that whisper to the world beyond!
~Conjuring of Giratina~There was an unforgettable moment.It was a time when the world would unravel.As if it was a fabric coming apart at the seams.Tree and root would become paper thin and take to the winds.Earth and mountain would crumble into sand and sail away.The mystics and psychics would gather on the mountains.In a collective in the far east, they would focus their power.On two shining stones with a holy light they huddled around.Focusing their energy, they channeled, but actually prayed for a miracle.It was then the stones sunk into a pool of darkness.The opening was an inky blackness not fluid and unworldly.From it emerged a curvaceous form with red eyes and cloaked in black.Her form emerging as her reflection was something malevolent and monstrous.With her arms spread, she would send a Godly, but tainted, energy.The world around the mystics would weave back together and hold true.The pool vanished and so did the being’s way home.The people desired to know their savior, but there was no name.The mystics would give her pity. They would give her shelter.Even more importantly, a name of her own.
~History~
With the creation of Xerneas, the world continued to unravel. Matter and material of Ransei began to disintegrate, reacting to the imbalance the Divine Creator had made out of carelessness and desperation. The energy from Fairy-type’s creation had made Ransei unstable and was beginning from the highest mountain where the two villages where ghost mediums and psychic seers would live in solitude. When threatened with the lack of existence as the disintegration took hold of people, the members of the clans from the two villages would find two sacred stones that they found that were shining and glittering with energy.
Unknowingly, they had indeed found the plates of the Creator that had fallen to Ransei during the battle with Black Dragon. They chanted and channeled, hoping they could harness the energy by pouring their own into it, but in reality they had instead attracted an otherworldly Pokemon that came into existence created through the amalgamation of spiritual, psychic, and divine energy to make something alien: Giratina. With her creation and the scripture of the plates giving her a human form, she would use her distorted energy to create a balance and seal a second world on the side of the current full of distortion and ruin to spare the one she would live in.
Due to nameless Giratina’s interference and saving the people, they have learned to use their own energy and arts to sync with their Pokemon. Those of the encampment known as the Mitama Highlands often are blessed to actually be able to communicate and understand Pokemon fluidly due to their abilities making them one of the few Kingdoms able to effectively talk to them. A lot of their arts revolve around this concept as they are even able to channel their psychic energies in order to confuse others easily. Their spirituality usually makes it so they heavily respect the shrines within the highlands and the departed. This is due to their heroine thought to be from the afterlife.
~Culture~
The culture of the combined encampments is something that almost seems unworldly. Although there are high walls, busy streets, and even the occasional warlord; the style and appearance of the warriors and civilians of the village is mostly exotic. They wear light fabrics and garbs as most in the village are priestesses or mediums. There are even medium as the village shows a high preference for those who believe in not only the divine but also respects the spirituality of the world. The villagers speak of a “balance'' and being knowledgeable about the laws of the universe that governs mind and matter. Due to this, they are characterized as a village of seers and rulers of fortune.
The people of this particular Kingdom often act as seers and mages which develop supernatural abilities. There is belief that this is due to the exposure to the Reverse World when Giratina was summoned a long time ago. The divine between life and death, and so was the plain of thought between individuals, including human and Pokemon. Individuals are able to understand their Pokemon more clearly making them one of the few special Kingdoms able to interpret actual speech with Pokemon.
