(Temporary) Prologue - Acheros
The creatures of this world never learn. Was it our fault? No! we created this world to signify the unity of us gods. From the plants, water, and creatures that made up the world of Acheros. The goal was to make a world where all life lived in harmony. This was done to show that the gods are able to create a flourishing world together. Yet the worst possible scenario happened. War, within a millennium into their existence. Each creature vied for control over Acheros. They wanted to enslave all other creatures, they wanted to establish their dominance over the other inhabitants. Forgetting that they had been created by us gods to be equal. The war between the so-called "Races" continued till around two centuries into the war.
The Giants used their ingenuity and created a device that could overthrow the standstill. When they used the created weapon, they have failed to realize how destructive it could be. They had succeeded and annihilated the Dragon Race and a portion of the other races including themselves. The weapon was so destructive that it created a hole in the planet that they lived in. Luckily for the inhabitants the world had been held by the magic of creation. Due to the destruction that the Giants had done, the magic of creation could not repair the world and therefore could not fill in the gap that the planet now possesses.
The destruction incensed us, Gods, therefore putting a curse on the Giants. We removed their gift of Strength, thus shrinking them closer to the ground. Unable to reach the sky, and unable to look down on others. As the magic of creation was exposed to the world an anomaly was created. "Golems" sprung to life, but unlike the other races who were created with the idea of no purpose other than living in harmony. The Golems seem to have been created to balance and watch the world. Another millennium has passed, and another war broke out. We grew weary of this destruction if war and destruction is what the inhabitants want, then that is what they shall receive.
The portals of Death and misery are created from the hole of the world. Making sure that what comes out seeks nothing more than the annihilation of its inhabitants. Not every god agreed with the new creation, those who resist are a minority. The Gods who resisted hatched a plan, the creatures must pass the trials and gain the gift of the gods. They shall be the final beacon of light this world shall receive. but even if they receive the gifts. It is not a guarantee that they will succeed.
