Chapter 6 - Alliance

Keles then proceeds to show a projection of the two creatures she created, one of the creatures was a beautiful woman but with a large and eerie mouth filled with teeth, and the long, protruding tongue bore a resemblance to the legendary beings known for their haunting wails " A banshee"

The other creature in the projection is a pale looking male with with teeth that sticks out and ears that look like an elf, a vampire? Looking at one of the most popular undead creatures in my old life, I can't help but wonder how different this one will be with a god's blood flowing in it, how different and unique its traits and abilities would be. The divine essence flowing within it could potentially amplify its powers and grant it extraordinary capabilities beyond what is traditionally associated with vampires.

" I will be taking my leave first since this meeting is nearing its ending" Keles said with a dark swirly portal opening behind her, not waiting for anyone to say anything she disappeared with the portal closing too.

" Just as she said this meeting is nearing its ending, Nana is in a deep sleep and no one has any idea when she will awaken. I implore you to start immediately with your development" Crepuscular said standing up from his seat.

"One last thing Nana wanted to inform both of you is, Mating between gods is not prohibited but the time it takes for a new god to be born, isn't the most profitable compared to the advancement that would have been made when waiting for the birth"

A flaming portal opened in front of him, " The next gathering will be when Nana awakens, Take care till then brothers and sister" he stepped into the portal after saying that.

"There is no need for me to be here still with everyone leaving, Jaus also stood up ready to leave but he then stopped and looked at me "There may be matters of mine that will require your assistance soon brother, I will contact you when the time comes"

Wanting to ask what the matter was, he disappeared with the water like portal closing behind him.

Looking at Mahu who was also confused by what happened, I shook my head with a smile on my face, standing up from my seat " I will also be taking my leave sister, we both have a lot to think of and do at the same time"

With a slight concentration, a portal connecting to my domain opened in front of me. I was about to step into it when I heard Mahu say " Can I take a little bit of your time, twin?

Looking back in confusion and seeing her serious face, I thought for a bit before closing the portal and going back to my seat.

" You have my full attention"

" What do you think of our siblings" she asked

I subconsciously wanted to say that there was nothing to think about them since this is the first time we are all meeting but she should know this too and still asked this question.

" Powerful and there is a power that connects to them that makes them get a bit stronger every second" I said to her after thinking for a while.

" It seems you also felt it, my instinct tells me that it has something to do with their creation"

" yea , i also came to the conclusion but that has nothing to do with you wanting to talk to me"

"It does actually, I want to form some kind of alliance between us both"

Not waiting for me to say anything she continued " They have given us a considerable distance brother, and the distance can only be shortened with a cooperation between us both"

Hearing her mention an alliance, I was happy hearing it because it has always been on the back of my mind how to breach the gap between my three older siblings.

The year gap they have on us both made them a lot stronger than us but what can she offer that can make this alliance stronger. I know well enough that I have nothing to offer her.

" I am in line with the alliance, but what can we both offer each other that will keep this alliance strong"

She looked happy with me accepting the offer " I am not sure yet but i have a feeling that my divinity for motherhood will help us both a lot"

" Motherhood? I asked in confusion yet at the same time something I was unable to grasp at the moment crossed my mind.

" Yes and if it works the way I think, then your divinity for nature will be a great combination" Mahu said, seemingly confident the more she talked.

" It sounds good but all this has to be tested to be proved true, we both need some time alone to get used to our divinities and have an understanding on how it works before seeing how it can both help us"

With that said, I stood up and walked into the portal connecting to my realm.

Back in my domain, the animals that were evolving had already awakened and were experimenting with their newfound abilities.

Two particular creatures caught my attention. The first was a bird surrounded by a vibrant green glow, darting back and forth with incredible speed. Its agility and swiftness were mesmerizing to watch.

The second creature was a green-scaled snake with wings, seemingly perplexed by its newfound appendages. It twisted and turned, trying to catch a glimpse of what was behind it, as if still adjusting to its own transformation

Walking to the center of the domain where my altar is, I took a seat on the step and motioned for the two creatures to approach me. As they drew near I could feel their panic and confusion, probably because they didn't understand why they were being pulled towards a giant uncontrollably.

With the two animals now closer, I could now take a closer look at them but the snake is quite feisty because it spat out a stream of purple colored light from its mouth. Intrigued by this display, I decided to let the light hit me, curious to witness its effect.

When the light touched my skin, I could feel it trying to affect me but to no effort. However, in that process, I gained a deeper understanding of its properties. The light had a unique affinity for vitality, seeking to draw out and harness the life force within its area of effect.

I let the snake go after understanding its new abilities, now my attention is back to the snow white bird. I don't know much about bird species to identify which one it is but it looks good.

Concentrating on the green glow that occasionally flashes on its feathers,it became apparent that its abilities were tied to the element of wind. The occasional flashes of green indicated a connection to the air and its properties. It seemed that the bird's evolution had granted it special powers and heightened control over the wind.

Now down observing the two creatures, I focused my attention on my domain. I couldn't help but appreciate the harmonious balance that permeated the vibrant landscape.

The expanse, slightly larger than a football field, was teeming with life. Towering trees stretched their branches towards the sky, forming a lush canopy that provided shelter to the creatures below. The air was filled with the melodious chirping of birds, and the gentle rustling of leaves created a soothing symphony of nature.

There is a pristine source of water nourishing the vegetation and serving as a lifeline for the creatures that called this place home. One notable aspect of my domain was the least amount of predatory animals allowing a diverse array of non predatory animals to thrive without the constant threat of predation. This created an atmosphere of tranquillity and allowed for a unique balance within the ecosystem.

Within the serene expanse of my domain, a diverse array of creatures found their place in the harmonious ecosystem. Among them, I noticed a dog-sized hare gracefully hopping across the grassy meadows, its soft fur blending with the earthy tones of its surroundings. It moved with agility and speed.

Gazelles with shiny furs dotted the landscape, their elegant forms bounding across the open spaces. Their slender bodies and long, nimble legs allowed them to traverse the terrain effortlessly.

A mountain goat perched upon a rocky outcrop, it's sure-footed nature allowing it to navigate even the steepest cliffs with ease.

Slithering through the undergrowth, snakes of various sizes and patterns moved with sinuous grace. Their streamlined bodies allowed them to traverse the domain silently, while their forked tongues tasted the air, sensing the world around them. They played an integral role in maintaining the delicate balance of the ecosystem, keeping populations of smaller creatures in check.

Birds of different species filled the air with their enchanting melodies and colorful plumage. They soared through the sky, their wings carrying them effortlessly from tree branch to tree branch.

Amidst the natural wonders,a few luminescent flies danced in the air, their delicate wings glimmering with a soft, ethereal light. They served as gentle beacons in the twilight hours, casting a subtle glow that added a touch of magic to the surroundings.
