Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ampolitor" data-source="post: 2132480" data-attributes="member: 11758">part 1 of the age of dreamsThe Age of Dreams  The Gods loved the Skyrmir and for many ages they enjoyed watching them as they patrolled the world. The Gods however as vain as they are wanted more. They wanted to be worshipped and praised, the Skyrmir like the Avenar did not understand this, they just did as they were told. This was very important to the Gods so once again they decided to create more creatures. This time they would love and worship the gods and pay them great tributes. The Gods sent for the gem and the Skyrmir brought it to them. The skyrmir watched as the Gods created the Tuatha De Aden (or the Tuatha as some of the scrolls refer to them) meaning the “people of Aden”.     They created the Elves first wo wander and tend the animals and the forests. They were people of beauty and deep culture. Then they created the dwarves, the tenders of the hills and mountains. They were given the gifts of the forge, and of the art of molding the earth and stone. After the dwarves the Gods created the Barrowmen or ground folk, as they are also known. They were to keep the records of all the great things that the Gods did, the keepers of the most sacred knowledge.   Then the Gods created the humans who were given the gift of free reign of their destiny, to do as they will but they were cursed with short lives.      The Tuatha were placed in separate areas of the world where they flourished and began their own civilizations. They built great temples and statues in honor of the gods. This pleased them very much, all of the Gods except for Belephor. He watched the Tuatha as they lived their pitiful lives praying and building. They were weak and pathetic, a virus upon the world. This made him angry, especially when they prayed for things. How dare those weak creatures ask the gods for anything, they were not worthy in his eyes.  He roamed the streets of the heavens thinking to himself, ignoring the other Gods and Avenar as he passed them bye. He watched the darkness from the outerwall, he peered into the blackness as he has always done but this time it looked back.   Belephor stared into the nothingness as it whispered to him; it told him that he was a mighty warrior stronger than the rest. This was nothing new to him, he knew that he should lead the gods, take the Gem and prove that he was the strongest. It was he that defeated Atioch, and he that saved the Gem. The gods owed him everything and they give him nothing. Why should he even protect them, he thought to himself that he could rule it all, the gods and the Djinn. He left the wall and walked back to his hall where he went back to his throne and schemed as his soul spiraled further into darkness.</blockquote>
