In The Beginning
The Goddesses knew a disaster was coming. The council of Olympus rulers already had a plan in motion. The nonagon was more than just wise. They could already foresee every lifeâs beginning and end before it starts. But their path of sight has become blocked in the year 5080.
A fierce war is approaching, but after that, there is only darkness. The emptiness gave them dread. They knew something was irrefutably wrong. So they informed their generals of what was to come.
âOn this day, the first demigod will be born. As half-human, half God, he will be the most powerful of us all. Driven and empowered by his human emotions, he will be one of many saviors. In 1000 years, a battle will be fought for the sake of the Earth, then ultimately, the universe. Every species, planet, and reality will be wiped out if they fail. It will be up to them to save themselves and their kin. Over these 1000 years, we will create the strongest member of each species to fight him.â The Goddess of Earth announced.
âWho, my liege?â Asked one of the generals.
âThe only other powerful enough to commence such an act.â That was all they could say for now. But the generals knew who they referred to. And if the Goddesses commended it, they would follow. All they could do now was wait and watch as the demigod was born from a virginal woman.
The woman was confused when she woke up to find she was already a few months pregnant. The child was born on the 3rd day of her surprise pregnancy. Her human body, unable to handle the power emitted from the being, died giving birth.
And just like that, a child of Godly descent was born on Earth. Its cries created earthquakes felt across the globe. Volcanic eruptions came from volcanoes that were thought to be inactive. The amount of death and destruction that wreaked havoc that day is still told 1000 years later. Passed down by the few lucky enough to survive it, generation after generation would know that day as âDies Exitii.â
The Day of Destruction.
Yet the one born that day would be the savior of all their future descendants. He who is only pure light. But his power was too unstable. So the savior was brought to Olympus before its cries could split the Earth in two.
Meanwhile, in a dark corner that essentially didnât exist anywhere known to any man or being, a powerful, yet greedy dark God that lurks in the shadows could only laugh at the birth of the savior.
âThey think this child can stop me.â Lucifer scoffed, watching the child as its cries destroyed the very planet it was meant to save. âI will create my own champion.â He promised into the dark.
He knew the Olympian nonagon would see and try to spoil his plans. Thatâs why he would be having his own spawn. One that was just as powerful to use against the demigod. The battle between the two half-human Gods would destroy most of the world for him. He could burn the rest with his other children. His bloodthirsty creatures of the night and the forgotten souls of the demons he commands.
After 500 years, he successfully created his demigod. The child was born half-human, half-dark God. Only one human woman could withstand the darkness creeping into her soul long enough to give birth before dying. Because only by corrupting something truly good could he create something purely evil.
Little did she know that she gave birth to the destroyer of worlds. Later known as âTenebris One." The dark one.
But over the next 500 years, six more saviors were born. Each of them represents one of the first species. A vampire, werewolf, banshee, shapeshifter, mage, and human. They would need to learn each otherâs strengths and weaknesses to become stronger. Strong enough to save the world. The entire universe. Or they would all perish with it.
