The Extinct People of Balance: Harmonizers pt3
ok- uh- lmao. when i started making these lore drops, i did not realize i would have so much to write down so HERES PART THREE????
recap, part one i talked about where harmonizers came from what the lost realm is what is in the lost realm how the lost realm fell
recap, part two i talked about what harmonizers are specifically their physical traits, both human like and non-human like the abilities/powers of harmonizers the two factions of harmonizers
if you haven't read the first two parts, i recommend looking at them bc ill reference a lot of stuff in this part.
again, if you have any questions or comments about the lore send me asks, reblog the post, or comment on it!
also, mild tw for this part? ninjago spoilers maybe? mentions of suicide (only kinda)
Social Construct of Harmonizers
As I mentioned in part two, Harmonizers have two factions that look different and have different powers, the lords and ladies of Peace or Chaos. Now based on their names, you may think there is consistent conflict between them like there is for Oni and Dragons.
But nope! Lords and Ladies of Peace and Chaos live in harmony, they don't fight each other and there's rarely conflict because of the mutual respect the factions have for each other. They live in the same cities in the same towns, and no one cares which faction you belong to, everyone's a Humanizer.
In fact, they can even have kids together. Yep, a lord or lady of peace or chaos can have a baby with the opposite gender of the same or a different faction!
How do kids work?
Ok so, for an example, if a Lady (female) of Chaos has a baby with a Lord (male) of Peace, the baby would either be a lord or lady of ONE of the factions. It is nearly impossible for the two factions to merge because it means merging the Essences of Peace and Chaos too.
What happens instead is depending on the ancestors, the child can have a greater chance to fall into one faction versus the other. Its really just dependent on genetics.
The child can also have the faction appearances of the non-human traits (like the eyes) but have the other characteristics from the other faction (like white hair versus black hair).
For example, a child born from both factions could look mostly like a Person of Peace but actually be part of the People of Chaos because of their powers.
Bringing up the fact of offspring leads into the idea of how relationships work for Harmonizers.
Soul Locks
So, for Harmonizers, there is this thing called a Soul Lock. It's basically kinda like a mating bond if your one of those fantasy book readers, or imprinting for those familiar with twilight lmao. I just decided to call it a Soul Lock bc I think it sounds cooler.
Harmonizers only have one partner, they cannot love another person after they find their soulmate as their soul locks onto their soulmates and they become eternally bonded to that person. They could try to be with other people before their soul becomes locked, but often times it doesn't work out.
Fate is set for Harmonizers so that, as long as nothing drastic like death happens, soulmates will always find one another. Usually, a Harmonizer can find their soulmates and become Soul Locked as early as 16 years old, but it's rare.
Once a Harmonizer's soul becomes locked, they are unable, literally, to feel romantic feelings towards another person. They could still thing, "damn that person's attractive" but they couldn't feel anything romantic towards that other person.
This also means soulmates are literally born for one another, they are made to be together based on personality and physical appearances.
It's another reason why Harmonizers never have conflict between factions, because everyone knows it's not worth fighting over love when everyone gets one.
A Soul Lock also means that if a partner dies before the other, the one left living will feel empty as literally part of their soul leaves when their lover dies. This often time means the remaining lover will sometimes follow their lover into the afterlife.
Sometimes, remaining partners will stay if there are children involved or if there's a family member in need, but otherwise, most times partners only last around 3 months after their lover dies.
As for Hanna and Fuwa, who are Humanizers and have non-Humanizer lovers, this still works. Hanna is Soul Locked to Lloyd and Fuwa was Soul Locked to her lover too.
It's awkward, but Fuwa's lover was also Soul Locked to Fuwa. The awkwardness is because of Hanna and Lloyd, it's a bit different for them. I'll explain why in the post where I finally disclose my Lloyd Au headcanons lol.
Tradition and Rituals
So before I discuss this part, I have to explain how aging for Harmonizers works.
They can live to be upwards of 4500 years old, some living as far as 5000 if their lucky. They reach adulthood at the age of 18, at the same time their body's aging process dramatically slows.
Meaning, for the first 18 years of a Harmonizer's life, they age as a human would. But once they reach 18, they will look very young for hundreds of years.
Because of this, they have different things that happen during their life. This part allows for kids to grow up with stability and for adults to live peacefully.
The first one is the Faction Discovery Ceremony.
This ceremony happens when a Harmonizer turns 5 years old and as the name states, this ceremony is how Harmonizers determine which of the two factions a child will be a part of.
Before the ceremony, Harmonizer's will not have any of the skin markings or horn shapes which align with a specific faction. Instead, their horns will be straight and their skin clear of markings. Their eyes are also normal with the whites being white and pupils being black.
During the ceremony, the horns will take their shape and their skin will produce the markings which align with their faction. Also during the ceremony, the children involved will be able to access their faction's essence for the first time.
The second is the Royalty Council.
This happens when Harmonizers turn 18, or become adults. By this point in a Harmonizer's life, they have discovered which faction they are apart of, they might've found their Soulmates, and they have a fairly good handle on their powers.
Thus, this ceremony happens to determine who will be the new leaders of The Lost Realm and in turn, the Harmonizers. This ceremony happens once every thousand years, but that isn't that long for the Harmonizers. The leadership of the Lost Realm is called the King and Queen of Serenity.
In the ceremony will be any and all Harmonizers who are 18 years old. They come from the entire Lost Realm to the capital city where the royal family is based. It ends up being a two week long celebration of the transition of power to new leaders.
The first week is mostly goodbyes to the current royal family, including any children involved. Then, at the end of the first week is the Rise. The Rise is a night during the Royalty Council where two people, usually a lord and a lady (though same gendered leadership has happened) will have a new marking appear on their shoulder.
This marking is what determines who will be the next leaders. The marking would fade from the current King and Queen and appear on the new people. The marking is a fancy yin yang.
Usually, the people chosen are those from both factions. For example, a new king could be a Lord of Chaos and in turn, the new queen would be a Lady of Peace. These people are, most of the time, soulmates as well.
The ceremony concludes with the remaining time celebrating the new royal couple.
The third tradition/ritual is Donning of Motherhood
Harmonizers are a species who basically worship mothers, during a pregnancy, the entire community works together to support the pregnant lady in anyway she needs. During birth, the mother is loved and supported, and those who have it use their powers to ease the pain of childbirth.
Once the baby is born, the father and parents of the child then plan whats called the Donning of Motherhood, which is basically a ceremony which welcomes in the new Harmonizer and acknowledges the hard work of the mother.
Usually, this ceremony happens a week to 3 months after a baby is born, all depending on how the mother is feeling. Also during this ceremony, the baby will have his or her horns begin sprouting from their scalp and their nails turn black.
This is needed because baby Harmonizers are born without horns to help the mother during birth. The black nails is just because why not lol.
Is government real?
Ignoring the silliness of the question, the Harmonizers also have a form of government. Though, it is mostly just a stand alone thing for travelers. Travelers because The Lost Realm was open for other realms to access and other people/species to visit.
Because of those coming and going, there were laws and things like that. The way that their government is a little odd because it's random. They don't vote, magic chooses the leadership of The Lost Realm.
No one knows why the realm does this for the Harmonizers, all they know is that it helps keep the realm stable.
The royals are called the King and Queen of Serenity, as I mentioned before. The Royal Council Ceremony happens every 1000 years, so each King and Queen gets a reign of 1000 years. You may be thinking this is a long time, but, it's not. Time moves differently in The Lost Realm so it feels more like 50 years for them.
The King and Queen, as I also mentioned, are soulmates. So, while king and queen, they could have children. The Donning of Motherhood ceremony for royal children is of course much bigger than others as the entire realm celebrates the birth of a royal child rather than just a community.
This child will be born with the same symbol of royalty as their parents have, and the symbol will fade during a Royalty Council ceremony.
Discord
So, I've briefly mentioned how Discord, or the Power of Discord has only ever existed in two Harmonizers, they being Fuwa and Hanna. Just as a note, Hanna is Fuwa's descendant.
As I've also mentioned before, the combination of both essences is the Power of Discord, which has only every been used by Fuwa and Hanna. I explain more about the characteristics of the Power of Discord in part 2.
Similarly, they are also the only two instances of the factions merging. Hanna and Fuwa carry the traits of both factions. Like I said in part 2, most Harmonizer's looks resonate with the faction they belong too. But because Hanna and Fuwa are part of both factions but also not in a way, they have completely different characteristics.
Eyes Hanna and Fuwa have metallic silver irises as the Power of Discord is represented by metallic silver. They also have white pupils, and the whites of their eyes are black.
Horns Hanna and Fuwa have 2 "sets" of horns, one set is a darker gray and is more physically like the horns of People of Chaos. They have another set thats pure white and are more like the antlers seen with People of Peace.
Hair Hanna and Fuwa have the natural mix of black and white hair. The two colors are usually always a perfect balance. I'll explain why I said usually in the next part.
Skin Markings Hanna and Fuwa also have traits of skin markings from both factions. For them, they are the color of the People of Chaos but the size and shape of markings seen with People of Peace.
Something else important about the Power of Discord, is why it happened. Thus, story time. This happens before the Lost Realm fell btw.
The Invaders were full force in their attacks on the Harmonizers, the stress they were under also put the Realm under stress. Because of this, for an unknown reason, a random couple who lived fairly close to an active war zone gave birth to a baby girl. The couple was a Lord of Peace and a Lady of Chaos. The baby girl was completely different to the norms of the world. She had silver eyes and during the Donning of Motherhood ceremony, she grew 2 sets of horns off the bat. Similarly, during the Faction Discovery Ceremony, she didn't fit into either faction, but she also fit into both. This child was Fuwa, the first user of the Power of Discord as she named it later. The royal family were given visions, they told them that the Realm created Fuwa and her abilities to stop the invaders. Which, she did. On her 18th birthday, Fuwa joined the loosing fight against the invaders. Because of being in battle, Fuwa was clueless that she would become the next Queen of Serenity. The same battle, her soulmate died before she had the chance to meet him. By the age of 25, the majority of the realm Fuwa lived in was dead, both her people, and the Realm's magic in general. Thus, she had to make a big decision, one that made her kill the entirety of her species, and destroy the Realm she called home.
So, the Power of Discord was created by the magic of The Lost Realm to try and stop the invaders. The power did in the end, but it also meant that Fuwa was the last living Harmonizer in the now 16 realms.
Fuwa traveled around the other realms until she landed at the Realm of Oni and Dragon where she met the First Spinjitzu Master. With Fuwa's help, the FSM was able to leave his realm and go to Ninjago. In Ninjago, Fuwa helped the FSM defeat Wojira and solidify the magic of the realm using the Realm Essence left from The Lost Realm.
In my AU, the reason why Ninjago is split between the land of Ninjago and the Dark Island, and why it looks like a yin-yang is because of the essence of The Lost Realm, it created balance and in the end also made it so that the FSM couldn't have what he wanted, a realm without any darkness.
Fuwa would end up becoming Soul Locked to a human male, a user of Magic which allowed him to live a long time. They had a baby girl together. Before her death, Fuwa had visions about Hanna and the threats she would face (I'll explain more on that in the next part).
Because of what her visions said, Fuwa created three artifacts which allowed her to split the Power of Discord into four things, the artifacts, and the genetics of Fuwa's daughter. However, the power which resided in her daughter would be locked, unable to be used or extracted until the bloodline reached Hanna.
This also meant all of the traits of Harmonizers also went dormant but consistently passed down from parent to child. Hanna would end up being the first person in thousands of years to both use the Power of Discord, and be the first Harmonizer seen since Fuwa's death.
Because the power was locked, unable to be used, it grew in power. For comparison, Fuwa's power would be the equivalent to Firstborne's (the FSM's mother?? or the leader of all dragons ) or the Omega (The FSM's father??? or the leader of all oni). Whereas Hanna's power would be equivalent to a Source Dragons (DRAGONS RISING MENTION OMG) or all three of the Oni Warlords Hatred, Deception, and Vengeance (The warlords power, not the masks).
So, obviously, I still have a shit ton of stuff to explain. But, everything about Harmonizers and The Lost Realm specifically has been explained (for the most part). I really thought this was going to be the last part but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i need a nap or smth bro what the flip.
