Chapter 4 by TheDespaxas TheDespaxas

Tomes of knowledge :

Tome 1 : the Pantheon.

In this world Gods are not a matter of opinion, the fact that they exist and who they are is not a point of discussion as they have an habit to remind people themselves.

Here are the gods of the Pantheon in order of ascendancy:

Oord the eternal: most ancient God of the universe, he is the God of time without whom no other could exist.

The Nameless: this goddess is nearly as old as Oord and his concubine. She is the endless void of space and the goddess of ****.

Born from Oord and the Nameless.

Keldar the radiant: God if the sun and often considered the God of goodness and honor. He created the humans. Keldrin crystals are drops of his blood fallen on earth after being wounded by his son Malak.

Gaia the mother earth: earth incarnate, wife of Keldar (and his sister). She is the goddess of life. She created the elves.

Born of Keldar and Gaia.

Kaz the creator : this God sculpted the mountains and continents, he is the God of craftsmen and Chief amongst all of the dwarves whom he created.

Livia the red: goddess of love, health and fertility. Her priestess wear less and less as they gain in rank, they matriarch staying naked bar a few amulets pierced unto her skin. She is jealous of the beauty of her twin sister Castia and can't bear her getting more attention.

Castia the virgin : goddess of purity, virginity, chastity. Twin sister of Livia whom she considers a slut. Her priestess wear white robes that cover every part of their body and travel to purify and cleanse people and land of dark magic. Castia herself is always depicted naked like her sister and often washing herself, it finds its source in a story in which Livia stole her sister's clothes while she was bathing and told Malak where she was.

Malak the fallen : God of chaos. Youngest son of Keldar and Gaia, this young God was touched at birth by the Nameless. His mind, brilliant but twisted made him invent numerous creatures, Orc, trolls, goblins, lizard folks, lycans and even made some humans and elves worship him only to change their minds and body. In a twist of fate his affection fell on Castia who sworn to never be with man or god, after Livia's jealousy pushed him toward her naked sister he declared his flame and tried to kiss her. Her cries of help where heard by Keldar who interviened. In the fight Malak wounded Keldar whose blood fell on earth, each drop forming a Keldrin crystal. Gaia cursed and banished her son for what he did and cursed all his creations. He retreated to the void only to come roam on Earth every few centuries to have fun and sometimes sire offsprings.

Born of Malak and the Nameless

Zalaxis the twisted : goddess of insanity, mother of monsters and demons. After seeing Malak be rejected and entering in conflict with the other gods, The Nameless usually neutral in such matters decided to intervene to her her favorite among the gods. She promised Malak a partner would could be whoever he want her to be. He accepted and ended in bed with his own grandmother, who birthed Zalaxis. At the same time his daughter and aunt, she also became his wife. True to the promise the Nameless had made she was a shapeshifter, able to assume any shape or identity. The one that would soon be known as the mother of monsters began to create beings, twisted or mixed together from the creation of the other gods. When the mortals started to hunt them down and kill them she went to see her mother, who seeing her tears allowed her to keep their souls in the afterlife. She then used them to breed with the spirits of chaos of her husband to create demons of shapes limited only by her insane imagination.
