“The Darkness was the greatest225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8jv6nau8Q
evil humanity had ever faced. If she is released once again, I fear225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2KhgG3rc0
for us all.”
-Unknown
None remembered the beginning of the world, not225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMi1leIZso
even the Deities who formed it. Everything had taken on a form of its own and225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTzxJtUCwX
many believed the Deities to be myths and legends without fully understanding225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQfJeNbUbq
how much they still impacted the world around them. The Deities roamed freely225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuhKjEQajN
interacting with their creations making sure to keep their memories alive even225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDNX6Ynhfd
if it’s only in their stories.
None of them loved humanity more than Imitae, the Lord225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tBhCbkVm5
of the Light, husband to Veyar and the grandfather to humanity. He shunned his225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZb68FAOPQ
powers and walked freely among them, helping them with their problems, healing225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGN9tF3FJw
their ales and listening to their stories about his family. So, he didn’t think225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98MANAuBTl
twice about helping someone who needed it. He followed a beggar to their home225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc78UG6mMZ
because his family had fallen ill. Once there he was hit upside the head and225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbokinHH2Va
knocked unconscious. He felt himself being dragged on the ground then down a225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37P4sfuEjF
flight of stairs into the cold, dank darkness.
When he woke up again, he found himself in a dungeon225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmix8FQinlw
chained to a wall. Water dripped down from the ceiling onto his pounding head.225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDiXd3X9F0
The room was damp and smelled of mildew. Rats skittered in the corner fighting225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9zx3qJYP6
over a bone from the last person who died here. One walked over towards him225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6xDRyBo2B
trying to take a bite, but he lashed out with his foot sending it flying into225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP9MfeJeLO
the wall where it lay still. Not willing to leave fresh meat lying around, the225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMfoDfc9X9
rats tore into their friend leaving Imitae trying not to vomit. His granddaughter’s225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsVNCIPMZq
creations were disgusting.
He tried to use his powers to free himself, but they were always just out of reach. No225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHR7Mn5d7gs
matter how much he tried, no matter how much he struggled, the powers he225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTV0r82ziJ
controlled refused to answer him. So, he sat there, his hands held above his225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTlCg7eH4p
head with rope with nothing to eat or drink. He wasn’t sure how long he had225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91sArH6ylq
been down there, time had lost all meaning to him eons ago, but it was the225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWllQ6bmUi
boredom that threatened to make him go insane. Just when he thought he was225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfqoSpQyiV
about to break, he heard the door on the other side of the room open.
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9czK2Ur1nD
Two men walked into the room. One of them was dressed in a long black robe with the hood pulled down low covering their face. In his hand was a thick, leather-bound book. The spine was cracked, the words were in a language that had been spoken for thousands of years. He recognized the book as the Darknomicon, the book his daughter had written that explained her cursed powers. This person was an acolyte of hers, he didn’t know how they escaped into the present day, they were supposed to have been hunted to extinction. However, it was the second man that garnered his attention the most.
This man wore a long white vest, but no shirt underneath to show off the muscles he obviously225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYDIsgA8tV
spent a lot of time on. He wore loose fitting pants, but no shoes on his feet.225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSF6ynEERVq
His head was shaved bald while his light hazel eyes gleamed in the low light. There were no weapons that he could see, but225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡug4dmsbQvD
based on his physique and the dangerous aura he exuded likely kept any would-be225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qaST3LlWt
attacks away.
As he walked closer, the pressure surrounding the captured god grew heavy. He could sense his daughter’s vile power coursing225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlwLZfcQGJ
through his veins, but unlike most, it didn’t show on his skin, but covering225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT5aRBjMc4
the body in black spots thickening their blood until it turned to mud. No, the225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5r09y4tUg
only indication was his scent and the darkness swirling under the skin.
“This is him?” The man turned to the acolyte who hastily nodded their head. The man’s225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXk0W8nNuc
heavy brown eyes studied him for a long time. It was hard to read this human’s225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYD9f8o4Ihq
face, but the warning bells in his head kept ringing. This man was dangerous,225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpS8Q6dMLql
he should be killed before he brings doom upon them all. But he was useless225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunovpgv0UU
currently, so there was nothing he could do.
“What is it you want from me?” Imitae found his voice, but it came out in a low225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8x1Yll2Ljn
whisper. It was dry and cracked, he hadn’t had any water in ages. Not very225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZPL0qjpMu
dignified for a God, but dignity was in short supply these days for him. Anger225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XBRFwnYSM
flashed in the man’s eyes. He strode over, grabbed Imitae’s platinum blonde225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9zMlGbivV
hair, so blonde it was almost white, and yanked his head back to stare his225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V9dvl2EcV
captor in the eye.
“You speak when you are spoke too, Imitae.” His voice came out like a hiss. “This is my225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYS36zEvfbH
domain, not yours.”
“Be careful who you speak too, mortal.” Imitae shot back. “You are nothing in my eyes,225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2ssZQzFQZ
just an insect who hasn’t learn their place.” The man reached back and225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6yrLea39J
punched the god in the face. He was surprised when his head smashed backwards225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmD2HXJgK7
against the wall he was tied too. He tasted blood which was something he never225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2OM8PB4vx
thought possible. He spat the golden liquid into his hand and just stared.
“You have no powers here.” The man grinned. “You are completely at my mercy.”
“What is it you want from me then?” Imitae asked. He was roughly shoved back to the ground225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4FtWH0YLJ
before the man stalked away.
“I need to find the Ma’akti, and you’re going to help me.” The man smiled. Imitae looked up225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsdgnv48mZ
at him confused. The Ma’akti were the chosen of the Deities, why would this man225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42WmjBe6tb
want them?
“Do you wish to be one yourself?” Imitae asked. “If you free me, I will give you, my225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8lGyXqRz0
blessing.”
“What do I need with your power when I already have it?” He laughed. A small ball of light225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqFESa8NPU
flashed in his open palm as he grinned at Imitae. “No, I need you for225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJGqQaaiV8
another reason, one you don’t need to know about. You!” He snapped at the225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpbeYlSceR
acolyte. “Get what you need from him, but make sure you keep him alive. We225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM23cRlzgJ
will need him.”
“Yes Lord Whitesun.” The man bowed his head. “Your wish will be my command.” Imitae225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4R7P2dTmN
watched with dismay as the man left the room, leaving him at the mercy of his225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxNSttuiqK
enemy.
The acolyte placed the book down on the ground. As he stalked closer to the God, he removed225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHy5Dx3an9
a wicked looking, curved dagger from the inside of his sleeve. “Those225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCelN6pk2CI
chains holding you down are made from part of a meteorite and quenched in the225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoxzIMc93x
water of light blessed by Humjir. They seal your power’s making you mortal. But225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLCb1r1zPK
don’t worry Imitae, this will only hurt a lot.” He placed the dagger on the225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeqxZyhOav
God’s skin. “Tell me where the Ma’akti Unna’tun is.”
“No.” Imitae stuck out his chin in defiance. The acolyte didn’t ask again. With a large225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO24aTVh9Uo
smile, he started to cut.
For the first time in the God’s long life, he screamed.
