Prologue
The True Eternal 100,000,000,000 Years Ago
It is time.
Good.
Let us do this.
The True Eternal waited. He pictured the world as he would make it. He wanted a variety of different landscapes; hills, valleys, oceans, mountains, etc. He wanted this world to be perfect. Not like the last time. Never again like the last time.
He had realized that to make a perfect world, there must be something that is not perfect. He could not make this himself. The Evil had to be himself. He would split himself into to forms; life and death. For the world to become perfect it would not take long. 100,000,000,020 years, he had decided. Then, the two halves of him would collide in battle. What would happen in the fight, he did not know. Perfect was part of prospective. If Death will win, he decided, it would be because more people joined the Evil and decided it was perfect in their prospective.
Then, he felt it. It could not be scientifically explained. He did not feel the molecules split apart within him. It just happened. One of his eyes morphed into another shape, and then turned red. His other eye also morphed, and then turned blue.
The red eyed demon would be Death, and the blue eyed angle would be Life. Life walked over to the Prophets Scroll. He read it and when he had a concept of what the world was to be as the True Eternal planned, he created Man. He gave the ones that were the most and least pure-hearted Elemental Powers. It was finished.
Death watched as his other half created the universe. He looked upon the species he had created. The people started out as small embryos. When they were about to hatch into real people, he grabbed a few he thought reflected his very image. When they came out, it looked as if they were a lifeless corpse, and indeed, that is what Death can do. He called to them, and they came. Death chuckled. This would be easier than he thought.
He would need a bodyguard; someone who had real talent, but did not ask questions. That someone would be called a Shadow, he decided. He would need people who used plain old brute force, but with a touch of magic, he could do anything. He picked a few that came out of the womb cursed. They came with fever, tuberculosis, and still life. He implanted a new soul into them. The soul had one desire; make everyone feel the pain it had felt for so long. They would be Corrupters.
Next in line was an organization that would do whatever he pleased, since Life had already thought of this and made his own. At first, he thought he would call them Sin, but then he decided, if the organization represented Death, it should be called Death. He would make the leader a person whom is almost just like Death. The person would be totally immortal. The only thing that could stop him would be if his organization leader lost in the Battle of Time. |
