The History Behind The Boundless

So, we have finally started making new posts! Here is what we have so far to help you all understand The Boundless. A lot of it is similar to what it was before, but there is new stuff, so read and let us know what you think! Thanks!


One hundred and fifty years before the book takes place Kalvarax, the Gell of the Gaskor race, was sent to take his species to a distant planet so that they could live in peace. The planet, known as Rellgora, was small fertile and was ideal for the Gaskor race. They created a city on the surface of Rellgora’s largest lake and began to receive the Elements from Kalvarax. The Elements they received (Water, Wind, Earth, Fire) were considered a gift, and Kalvarax shared his knowledge of the Elements with his people. However in their fiftieth year, there was a disastrous incident that plagued the minds of the Gaskors for years to come. Kalvarax vanished without a trace and with him the source of the Element of Fire. With their sun gone, the Gaskor race lived in darkness for a hundred years and grew accustomed to the lack of light.

Because Kalvarax failed to report his works to the High Council of the Gods he was dubbed a heretic. Due to this outrageous betrayal the High Council sought to bring him to Justice and correct him of his mistakes.
So on the hundred and fiftieth year, the High Council sent three other Gell to find the missing Kalvarax. Together the three were able to find the isolated world of Rellgora that Kalvarax had made his home, only to discover that he had been missing for over a hundred years. So the three Gell settled on Kalvarax's planet to search for him, re-bestowing the Element of Fire upon Kalvarax's calm Gaskor race.

And so the story of The Boundless begins. Each of the three Gell spends their days endlessly searching for the missing Kalvarax. Only then can Justice be seen.

Introduction To A Book

The Boundless is a book idea that my cousin, Kit, and I came up with recently. This blog will be used as a window to look into the world of The Boundless. To give a brief description, The Boundless is a book in which demi-gods known as Gell are commissioned to go to a secluded world to learn to direct their race closer to harmony. The Gell are observed and regulated by the Judgment of the High Council of the Gods.
