PHASE ONE
365Please respect copyright.PENANA36vMzg5BDR
Staring at the revolving worlds beneath them, the council of gods at the helm of affairs at Godsland waited patiently for the order of the grand god, who was none else than Ormius. The other deities seated around him, Pheltar, Caltera and Versura, each with a whip representing, their authority. This was one of the times when the grand decision made by gods was passed and its effects were always devastating. With the flick of a finger, they were able to throw countless realms into chaos, making the heavens tremble under their might for centuries. But the statement was clear, "they were able to", but no longer could, why ?
365Please respect copyright.PENANAoNUtAJColL
"That bastard Secregard !" Ormius roared, his voice sending the heavens of Godsland trembling with lightning and thunder.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAnrbXMeDQ9J
"How many more paradigms and paradoxes could that bastard have created before his demise ?" Ormius tightened his grip on his whip.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAZSZki81gzH
"You can't tell", said Versura, "we keep coming after one or another as the day passes by, you just can't tell."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAsIDS887IfU
"Our immortality is at stake here", said Pheltar, unlike Ormius, he was calm when making his statements, "do you think Secregard is still alive ?"
365Please respect copyright.PENANAG5jYKBdA3r
"I'm doubtful about that", Caltera replied the question, "he must have died, only his creations are what are left behind."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAlvQa7uLhXN
"His troublesome creations are the things giving us headaches right now", Ormius growled, "there has to be a way to evade all these things."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAd01kgMmLom
"Evade", Pheltar sighed, "we've spent millenniums doing this again and again, times without number, yet not even one of the books of creation, not even one of the twelve runes of chaos, not even one of the quills or elements of creation have been found. And one would wonder if they had been destroyed along with Secregard."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAWcC7a8p8Ac
"I don't believe that to be true", Ormius denied, "Secregard had fallen, yes, but the keys of creation still exist and we must find it, our immortality is at stake, we cannot watch ourselves die without doing anything, then all we had laboured and plotted for will come to an end, with no one to rule the universe of Hayra, how will existence maintain its order ?"
365Please respect copyright.PENANA4EidTHTpYq
Maintain its order ? Pheltar grinned, a universe which would only be ruled by an egotistical moron and power crazed fool like you. Pheltar wouldn't want to be a creation in such a universe, not under this tyrant. The realms had now become a battlefield in the search of one thing, the very thing that could help them regain their lost immortality, what they had spent millenniums without being able to acquire, all because of a verdict passed out by a dying god. Pheltar had now begun doubting, if Secregard was this powerful that even after his downfall, the universe was still under his control, then how was it possible for him to have been killed by a measly Ormius.
365Please respect copyright.PENANA2TTj7egWQR
"The truth will reveal itself one day", Pheltar concluded, "But if Secregard is still alive", he said to the other gods, "then we are in for serious trouble."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAqVYX0koGn4
Ormius slammed his empty fist on the arm of his throne. Secregard alive ? And he was hiding, why would he be hiding if he was alive - that only meant one thing, he was just nursing his wounds to strike back when the stakes of him winning were higher. That scheming snake !
365Please respect copyright.PENANAINsjk7eKEo
"Indeed", Caltera mused, "if Secregard is alive but hiding, the chances of him coming back are high and we all know Secregard."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAr6huPl7iOf
For once after all these millenniums, that chill ran down Ormius' spine, that savage beast of a god. It was as a result of the Balances backing him that he was able to defeat Secregard, if not, he would have been thrown into inexistence.
365Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZRk3TRYRd
"The Hedrons must be obtained", Ormius concluded, "we can't waste another moment."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAdkRqq4rmtv
"The harvest is about to begin", Caltera giggled.

That expanse of galaxies peacefully followed its pathway of celestial existence. What other thing did it believe would be able to alter its state apart from the gods of Godsland - they had begun their harvest.
365Please respect copyright.PENANApaiLHesk28
The trail of galaxies went insane, their trajectories bending and their cores shattering, this was a phase they knew they couldn't avoid. The creatures within the realm, moaned and begged in agony and tears to the higher order who's only goal was total immortality, "their goal was to lead a life where they would never die, how ambitious of them, at the same time, it showed just how cruel they were.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAkwOsKpPJDf
The plains froze, their stillness as rigid as ice and like a hammer striking glass, the realms shattered, exploding into a floating mass of flames and the creatures of the lower realms ? Who were they to resist such a transition of existence, to the creation it was their life, but to the gods, they were simply refining the elements of creation into better uses, one that would benefit them even more, so what was the agony about ? When they were only serving their purpose as creatures.

Staring at the dangling thread floating before them at the centre of the hall of the grand gods of Godsland. Their eyes only showed one thing, dissatisfaction.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAwStGeR907j
"Just a thread of existence", Pheltar sighed, "how disappointing."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAhU8TNG8rV2
"And we can't start another harvest ..."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAPdf4LEvjer
"A new moon !", Versura was interrupted by Ormius growls, "how can we wait till we get a new moon ?"
365Please respect copyright.PENANAKzdcmXJMxF
"That are really hard to obtain", Caltera revealed, "and with the rise of Secregard's paradoxes, it is really disappointing for us to harvest just a thread after everything we have gone through just to get one."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAJdHpqDBP3u
"But there is nothing we can do about it", said Versura.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAbZC5nbBQBg
"Nothing !" That rage of thunder accompanied Ormius' growl.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAWHj8dnLbsz
"We must be patient", said Versura.
365Please respect copyright.PENANA7IC7CRBoTY
"But how long can we be patient ?" Asked Pheltar.

Within these plains, that figure stood at the edge of the cliff, a whip in hand and donning that embroidered cloak, he stared far into the horizons.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAHXpqQ9UAdj
"This could just be perfect"
365Please respect copyright.PENANAbCiF4R7y4y
Taking a leap from the edge of the cliff without any thought, he sailed all the way down, deep into the dense fog at the foot of the high mountains scattered across this realm, it didn't matter how reckless his actions were, because in order for one to be able to dominate the universe of Hayra, ONE HAD TO BE RECKLESS ENOUGH, SO RECKLESS THAT ONE COULD GAMBLE THE ENTIRE WORLD FOR A SLIVER OF POWER - IF IT WAS WORTH IT.
365Please respect copyright.PENANALiEN5p8J6l
Taking calm strides as he walked the winding pathways created by the rocky foot of the mountains, he made his way through the endless bends, taking turns which he seemed to have been aware of before hand, he made his way so easily through the dense fog as though his vision wasn't even obscured by it.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAtdgmjdp1mZ
"Handling the fogs of this domain wouldn't have been this easy", he smiled, "hadn't it been for that"
365Please respect copyright.PENANALEe4VkaHIH
Placing his hand into his pocket, he brought out a compass who's pin was constantly rotating to the right as though it was a clock.
365Please respect copyright.PENANA6hImqNwY8d
"Once it goes the opposite way, it means that I've walked onto the wrong path", he smiled, "the massacre was worth it"
365Please respect copyright.PENANAj3uCznPUH1
Taking a final turn, he found himself standing at the bank of a lake which stretched far into the horizons.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAW40wLyvp60
"It's still called a lake regardless of its size", he sighed, "it doesn't matter anyway", walking into its depths, "I'll still go in even though it were the gates of hell."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAx0zmDfOKEs
Immersing himself into the waves of the lake, he slowly sank into its depths, his presence fading into an entirely different world.

Walking down that hallway, her whip in hand and her golden hair fluttering as they were plucked by the fingers of the wind. She was a graceful gazelle who's beauty and godly presence set the heavens ablaze in its unending thirst for perfection.
365Please respect copyright.PENANA5NXzLScK6T
"It's this thirst for perfection, this same greed", she said, "that has made the gods of Godsland, go berserk, in their quest for power. What a shame", Versura sighed, "that their wish may not be granted"
365Please respect copyright.PENANAz8cVc70ZCc
Walking into that orchard, with flowers making pillars, wreathing flowing fabrics radiating and adorning the suns at the peak of the sky, it was noon.
365Please respect copyright.PENANACcqkarGUGZ
"High noon at these abyssal depths", She sat on her throne of flowers, "conjuring realms and worlds which are all bound to perish", she played with her whip, "how should I say this ? The faction I support isn't what it actually is and who knows what that tyrant has in mind. This isn't the first time he has deceived the heavens and I don't think this will be the last either. I'm just lucky to know of his dark schemes and plots, fooling the heavens and the order of creation isn't child's play, devouring generation after generation of gods, how brutal, I wouldn't want to be amongst the unfortunate ones in this war."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAgiRR7tf3Tt
Lifting her whip to the air, Versura summoned.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAyHuTtDv7gF
"Rise my lady", she ordered, a fountain of water rose from the foundations of the earth, it's glistening blue tinged with green sculpted the form of a woman who's red rubied eyes shone of both innocence and mischief.
365Please respect copyright.PENANA4uBhl4p6LE
"My lady", the phantom said taking a bow, her watery hair falling forwards, "you summoned me."
365Please respect copyright.PENANApWk0TxwhLo
"Treachery", Versura called her name, "the grand pillar of Godsland will be needing Godsland's third key of chaos. You must find it before the others do."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAyLZKrHqiED
"Wasn't it sealed milady ?"
365Please respect copyright.PENANAYx1gfzcn0h
"It was", Versura replied, "but not anymore."
365Please respect copyright.PENANAlzFL0Fm5jy
Treachery's liquid form scattered as she seeped her way through the pores of the earth.
365Please respect copyright.PENANAsehOhvVhXe
"Make sure you find it little one", Versura said stroking her whip, "because time has since been out of our hands."
