Back in Ysion's universe, the heavenly realm was busy as Gods and angels could be seen flying around everywhere in a hurry. Ever since their God left, the entire realms were on the edge as this was the first time since the creation of the universe that their God has left everything completely within their hands.
Inside Zodohr's palace, was a giant hall. In the middle of the said hall was a round table with seats for every one of the main Gods plus one seat for Ovva whose status was not any lesser than theirs.
"Where are the others?" Asked Zodohr as he glanced around the table, Xulene, Urnera, Fydur, and Vuris were missing, Kyzdall's seat was also empty as he accompanied Ysion.
"Let's wait a bit longer brother, you do know how busy Xulene, Urnera, and Fydur are they have to keep the entire mortal plane in check, and Vuris, well she is still too occupied with guiding her race." Calmly replied Zuhnir.
"En, they should be here soon." Nodded Kieyr in agreement.
A little while later the sound of the door to the main hall opening and the weary figures of Xulene, Urnera, and Fydur made their way inside and sat themselves down. They each had a tired expression and did not mutter a word since they arrived.
Before anyone could say anything, the door swung open once more, the cheerful figure of Vuris trotted inside humming happily.
"I apologize for being late, I hope I didn't make you all wait too long." She said while smiling.
"It doesn't matter sister; we all know you are occupied with guiding your mortals." Replied Zodohr with a shake of his head.
"Yes, speaking of which how is that going along?" Asked Zuhnir, curiosity ever so evident in his eyes.
Hearing her brother's question, Vuris eyes beamed as she replied. "Oh, you have no idea! They are so smart! They have been pro-"
"Ahem!" Came the loud cough of Urnera, her eyes tired but annoyed.
"This is not the reason for our gathering today." She flatly said.
"Ah- I apologize, I got too excited." Blushed Vuris as she replied.
"Hmph." Harrumphed Urnera as she looked away.
"*Cough* Shall we get started with the meeting?" Quickly spoke Zodohr in an attempt to dispel the awkwardness.
To that everyone voiced their agreement, Kieyr was the first to start his report.
"The situation in my realm is not looking good, I have been losing a few souls again!" His voice calm yet carrying a visible hint of anger.
"Again?!" Groaned Zodohr. Xulene, Urnera, and Fydur wore a complicated expression on their faces after hearing what Kiyer had said.
"Do you think it's related to that person?" Asked Vuris, she could feel her back turn cold as she remembered the fight her father had against that monster.
"No, I don't think it's related to that." Replied Kieyr while shaking his head.
"What makes you think so? You sound sure that it isn't." Puzzledly asked Zuhnir.
"Yes, because this time I know where the souls have disappeared to."
"Where?"
Before he could reply, Xulene jumped to answer. "The mortal plane."
Hearing her reply, Kiyer turned to look at her with a shocked expression,
"How do you know that?"
Zodohr, Zuhnir, and Vuris quietly watched the ordeal in curiosity.
Looking back at Urnera and Fydur, they all nodded before she turned to face her siblings and taking a deep breath before speaking.
"The Ereviel Kingdom in the mortal plane has fallen."
Confused Vuris was the one to ask, "The Ereviel Kingdom?"
"It's a small human kingdom that used to be situated next to a forest, it's inhabitants were my followers." Replied Xulene, her heart ached as she remembered what had happened.
"Xulene you are not making any sense." Flatly said Zuhnir.
"A while ago, a simple farmer woman lost her child in that forest, losing her child had caused her to become blinded by rage as she blamed us…blamed father for not saving him…"
"I still don't understand what's strange? Countless of mortals die every day, and countless choose not to believe in us, curse us, how is this woman any different?" Coldly asked Zodohr.
"I am not exactly sure myself, but she-she changed."
"How?" Nervously asked Kiyer, he did not like where this was going.
"She unlocked something that shouldn't exist, something that father himself forbade. Death magic…"
Hearing that a thick silence descended on the room, Kiyer was the first to recover as he asked.
"A-are you sure?"
"Absolutely." Affirmed Xulene, Urnera, and Fydur nodding next to her. They were the ones responsible for the mortal plane something as big as this would not go unnoticed by them.
"So, she has been using the souls from my Kiyer's plane to resurrect the dead." Said Zuhnir.
"What do we do?" Nervously asked Vuris.
"It's obvious, isn't it? We strike down the damned heretic!" Angrily shouted Zodohr as he struck the table with his palm.
"Don't be too rash brother, remember father's orders." Replied Fydur, as he tried to calm his brother.
"Fydur is right, father ordered us to not take action unless the situation absolutely calls for it." Nodded Urnera.
Grumbling Zodhor spoke, "So we leave it until It gets out of hand again?"
"It's only one small kingdom that's been lost." Added Zuhnir.
Vuris that had been quiet spoke up "She was able to successfully resurrect the dead?" She asked finding such thing hard to believe.
"No, what she brought out was not living beings, she summoned abnormalities, monsters that retained none of their human characteristics from when they were alive." Replied Xulene, Fydur next to her waved his hand as a ball of wind started spinning in the middle of the table, soon it's inside started to change as the gods were able to see the mortal plane bellow and the former ruined kingdom.
"What in the name of heavens is that?!" Shouted Zodohr, the 'monsters' the death mage has summoned were the decayed bodies and skeletons of the dead, they were reanimated using souls from Kiyer's realm yet they retained none of their former intelligence and seemed to blindly follow the orders of their summoner. The most worrying thing however was their numbers, they were huge.
