NOVPUBPov Irius:
"Tell me again, why are we doing this?" (I)
"Because it’s a child." (Irina)
"You say that, I don’t know if it’s a child." (I)
"We saw her and you know, she’s only probably 8 years old, at most she’s around 10 years old." (Irina)
"But why must we do all this to save her?" (I)
"Because she’s a child!" (Irina)
"For the love of our Father, Irina!" (I)
"She killed her parents and younger brother, then cut up their bodies and devoured them for days, then used their bones to perform a Demonic Ritual turning the bones and Souls into a weapon!" (I)
"I don’t care about appearances, that’s not a child!!" (I)
I was on top of a metal building looking at a fortress almost good enough to hold a Demigod and it was built by mortals, I can’t even imagine how much money and effort went into this, let alone what it took to create it such a prison.
The entire city is focused on magical technology, the same can be seen all over the world, this place, as incredible as it is, revealed the best and worst of what people can do using creativity.
The Temple that my sister and I created here is being treated as a crime, that’s why it is hidden, but the number of believers we find here is frightening, none of them have a pleasant story of being pushed to the limit before they feel the existence of our Father.
"I’m almost sure she’s possessed or maybe something was controlling her..." (Irina)
"You’re not being sincere, you just want to help her because she’s a child, but if we go in there and I find out that she really is evil, I’m going to kill her, there’s no return for that kind of evil." (I)
"Not to mention that by doing this, we will be discovered anyway and will face even more resistance from the governments of this world." (I)
"We could just..." (Irina)
RRRROOOOOAAAARRRRE!!!!
"..." (me/Irina)
"DAMN YOU!!! ZENOS!!!!!"
Deep within our Souls a roar could be heard, this Roar seemed extremely distant and yet easily identifiable, it was different and yet very familiar, my bloodline began to pulse, the Holy Power felt like a boiling volcano and my Blood Core had increased twice in power.
"(He woke up!)" (I)
"Sister!" (I)
"Yes, he woke up, our Father woke up!" (Irina)
My surprise and hers didn’t last long before we focused back on the fortress, that scream was full of Divine Power, not only that but it seemed to be from a child’s voice, from a little girl, the Aura was so powerful that it destroyed the barriers while the voice exploded full of murderous intent.
"What did I say?" (Irina)
"Okay, I admit I was right this time, but how do we deal with her?" (I)
"I have a way, but you won’t like it and I hope she doesn’t realize until it’s too late." (Irina)
"I’m going to regret this, aren’t I?" (I)
"Probably...almost certainly." (Irina)
"Let’s get this over with." (I)
Sigh

Pov Zenos:
While walking around the city, I was using my Aura and power of nature to blend in with the environment itself, which in this place was very simple because it belonged to me, so no one was able to feel my presence or even see me, until the space it was being distorted by me so as not to bump into anyone, Hades following my lead as we entered the city.
The streets of the city were busy, I see the Android people, I see the Demons, the Elves, I saw everyone even the Fairies and Spirits who, even though they didn’t know about me, were still able to notice something looking with joy at the surroundings as if looking for something by instinct.
"(The Fairies and Spirits became more sensitive to my presence.)" (I)
"(They were born and raised here, they also worship you for being the master of their Queens.)" (Hades)
With this kind of relaxed conversation, we crossed the entire city where people talk with fervor and joy about the same event that everyone experienced, they heard a Roar that vibrated in their Souls causing abilities to awaken or evolve as well as varying increases in status for each one.
"(Was this caused by me?)" (I)
"(Yes, your roar shook my Soul completely and I am a Herald in your name, imagine for those inside this place?)" (Hades)
"(It should be similar to receiving a lesser blessing.)" (Hades)
"..." (I)
With that I went with Hades to the large government building in the middle of the city, I didn’t want to go to the mansion yet, as there wouldn’t be anyone there to welcome me, so it was the same as not going home.
We entered the building and went to the room where Nira was, to my surprise she no longer had any human features, on her back were black wings and her raven was sitting on the back of the chair where she was, her black hair and eyes were dark at the same time To the point of being strange, her skin even paler than before seemed almost completely white like snow, it was like looking at a doll.
"Damn Zenos, always leaving everything to me and still sneaking into the office!" (Nira)
"How did you notice me?" (I)
"No one else would sneak in here, just you and Nicole, I’m sure she’s very far away and you... well, I just heard a very clear roar and as soon as you entered I felt a fluctuation in my blood." (Nira)
"Sorry to show up like that, let’s just use the room next door." (Hades)
"Feel free, I’m glad to see you well, Master Zenos or should I call you God Zenos?" (Nira)
"Only Zenos will do, I don’t much care being a God now." (I)
"I figured that would be it." (Nira)
Saying this, she snaps her fingers and a wall on the side transforms into an image of the door we passed, inside it was just a wooden door, full of colorful plants overlooking the city, a table with some chairs and a tea set.
It was clear that this was her place to relax, I never knew about this place, but I also didn’t spend much time here.
I felt like Hades did the same thing trying to serve tea before I waved my hand and stopped him, I wanted him to get straight to the point.
"I have a lot of catching up to do, a lot of things you said before are still on my mind." (I)
"I’m sure you do, but where should I start?" (Hades)
"How about the Star Path you mentioned earlier? What is that?" (I)
"You must remember that during your sleep there was always a space full of stars through which a crystal path opened, correct?" (Hades)
"Yes, this place has been forming since my first evolutions and somehow its meaning has changed along the way." (I)
"Before it was a representation of my determination to create a new path like my feet if there wasn’t one where I was walking, it was just a mental image." (I)
"But little by little it started to influence others around me, when I became a Demigod it was like this place became accessible to everyone during my dreams." (I)
"Yes, but now this is a real place that we as Heralds can enter directly, we can interact with anyone who is their worshiper or has traces of their doctrine." (Hades)
"What doctrine? I’ve never had anything like it." (I)
"We can talk about this in sequence, but as I was saying, the star path connects all your worshipers to you, Lady Elizabeth said it is called an Incarnation of the Divine Will, a place of connection between the Gods and their Devotees, the form depends on the God and in your case that was the form it took." (Hades)
"I think I understand, but we can delve deeper into this later." (I)
"Just to take the burden off my conscience, did anything big happen while you were gone?" (I)
"A Divine war began, the God Selene and some other Gods started a war against the God Baldr or that’s what they say, the truth is that this war started with him..." (Hades)
"Wait! Wait! Wait, what do you mean a war?" (I)
"A Divine War, the two Main Gods have not acted yet, they are apprehensive due to some other factors, but their loyal Gods are commanding powerful troops, but in the end everyone is guarding their main forces for an opportunity, if this continues it will last for years." (Hades)
"I wake up only to be met with this!? A damn Divine War!!??" (I)
"What did all this... wait..." (I)
"..." (Hades)
"It can’t be... I won’t deny that I went against him many times, but I don’t think it escalated to the level of starting a war, not anytime soon at least..." (I)
I even wanted to go to war against the Church of Light, but I thought I would have time to prepare, maybe even start at the front carrying out a major attack, but I didn’t imagine waking up already being in the middle of a war.
"Did anyone on our side get hurt?" (I)
"Yes, Magnus was seriously injured 2 times and hundreds of Dungeon people died." (Hades)
"..." (I)
"It looks like this conversation will need to be more detailed and lengthy than I thought, let’s start at the beginning." (I)
It seems like I have a lot to know, not to mention I still have to discover myself as a God, I have to go see Tarzor at some point as well as go to the Communal Temple, I can feel the Gods looking at me from their statues there, they know that I woke up.
