"How much longer must we wait before we remove that damn royal family!" A old man sat in a chair with a crooked cane resting against the side of the chair.
"You know we can't just up and slaughter them all, their roots run deep and if we do so we'll face the anger of their whole populace." Red was resting against the wall hidden in the shadows, he scanned the whole room making sure everything was in sight.
"Then do you propose to do?" Not one to back down the old man shouted in annoyance while standing up with his cane.
"Enough old man, just sit down and keep quite!" Aldwin had enough of their antics and shut them both up, he released his aura that caused everyone to feel terrified.
"This meeting is over, it has come to my attention that none of you has come up with any good ideas, in one week we shall meet again to plan the downfall of The Gold Kingdom." Aldwin stood up with a look of annoyance and left the hall, June following closely behind him.
. . .
"There was no need for you to lose your temper you know." June looked worryingly at Aldwin, his aura was swirling around him in chaotic patterns.
"Oh, that little stunt, I just couldn't stand listening to their bickering any longer, so I may have overreacted on purpose!" As if to prove his point his aura retreated instantly and a sly grin appeared on his face.
"Oh your good, if you didn't act out I may have died of boredom!" With a laugh the two of them reached their destination, a beautiful garden of flowers. Tiny balls of light danced around the leaves of the flowers, giving the garden a picturesque scene.
Tiny little creatures with wings flew around and made little homes in the small tress dotted around the garden. The magic in the garden was pure and refreshing allowing those who studied the arcane arts to practice in peace.
"This place truly is the most beautiful garden, don't you think?" June looked towards Aldwin but he wasn't there.
"Where did you go?" June looked around but could spot him, she left the garden thinking he must have took a different turn without her knowing.
. . .
Aldwin stood in the same garden as June but instead of June standing besides him, a man with weird clothing stood before him. The strangest thing about him was the fact that it was hard to see his face. The only thing you could see was his eyes, they sparkled like the stars in the night sky and even looked like they moved.
"Welcome, there is a lot to talk about and you don't got much time." The man turned around and started walking deeper into the garden.
"Who are you?" Aldwin followed but didn't feel any sense of hostility from the man.
"Those questions I can answer, but it's better not to, I'm here to correct a mistake of yours." The man's tone sounded annoyed, very.
"What mistake, I have done nothing wrong!" Without a second to think Aldwin instantly denied the man's claims.
"Oh...but you have, you see...your God never wanted to be known to this world, he is supposed to be a secret, but you have exposed him to mortals!" The surroundings changed, like an illusion spell the very garden around them ripped apart leaving behind a galaxy of stars.
"..." Aldwin was visibly stunned speechless, his mortal brian did the best to process his situation.
"But...your actions aren't unrepairable...how would you like to become a [God]?" The man's words caused his thoughts to freeze before totally going berserk.
"This shall be a blessing...and a curse." With a wave of his hand space restored itself and they once again stood in the palace garden.
"You shall become my [God] of war, you shall age at a slower pace which will stop once you become a full-fledged deity." As his voice faded they seemed to echo with great power leaving Aldwin standing there in the palace garden completely frozen.
[Do to your actions you have crossed the boundaries or mortal limits, no longer are you a mortal but much more, you are a Demigod!]

James once again stood before his [Core] overlooking the while of his [Domain].
"Bell I know your there, what is it you want?" Bell appeared right besides James but looking directly into the [Core].
"The way you want about it could cause some issues with religion from now on..." She looked worried, her gaze somewhere off in the distance.
While turning Aldwin into a Demigod I disconnected myself from my 'religion', now all of those who used my name as power have lost said power.
"Yes it may, but I rather that then my assistance being known." I may have been a bit too harsh as a pained expression appeared on her face.
"Look, let's put these events behind us...I got a new idea that seems fun to try!" With a sigh, I turned to face her, a childish grin on my face.
"I want to speed up the world a bit more, maybe get Aldwin up here already, that way we can move on to step two, we only got about a couple of days before we're thrown into The Realm." Bell seemed to visibly relax as she focused her gaze on Lori-el.
"I think it's time to bridge the connection between Tholara and Lori-el!" I couldn't help my excitement from leaking.
"My realm isn't ready yet!" Bell on the other hand looked scared for some reason.
"What do you mean bell?"
"...my [Domain] is still unstable James, it could harm Lori-el..."
