Chereads / Deadric GOD of the Abyss / Chapter 7 - Abe-run

Chapter 7 - Abe-run

Hidden in the miasma of time and space, a beautiful realm full of magic prospered, inside this realm resided multiple races

Some advanced and mighty like dragons, titans and high elves

Some smart and tenacious like humans, dwarves, goblins and orcs

These races all called their home realm Abe-run

But this realm had other creatures ruling over all else the gods they presided over the weak races and protected the realm

Over the years, churches erected from different places all over the realm to worship these gods.

The gods in the eyes of some races were the greatest of all beings made to be worshiped and praised

In the eyes of some other races, the gods were only powerful pests feeding on the fate of the creatures of Abe-run to grow more mighty.

The old gods were created by the realm of Abe-run to preside over the elements of the realm

Abe-run gave the authority to the old gods over the elements by giving them priesthoods like the priesthood of darkness or the priesthood of the sky and many more

The old gods were as numerous as the elements, but some powerful creatures decided to band together to kill the old gods and become the new gods

Stealing their priesthoods to ascend into godhood, feeding on the fate and worship provided by the races of the realm to grow stronger

They built small pocket dimensions where they lived, every god built a god domain a dimension where he stored the faith of his worshipers and their souls after death, faith became his Devine power and souls became his soldiers shaped into his liking.

The Gods had wars against each other for faith and for priesthoods they grew weary of each other and distanced themselves from one another, with the conflict between gods came the conflict between mortals

Every race kept to itself unless they worshiped the same god, most humans and some titans worshiped Meredith goddess of light and healing wish made the relation between them more warm

Others like elves and dragons banded together because of their hate to the new gods only worshiping the old god mother tree of nature and magic

Some creatures like orcs and goblins worshiped different gods all the time like gods of darkness, tyranny and death

Dwarves on the other hand stayed in their underground city's and worshiped the gods of forging, fire and might this god was special as he was the son of an old god and a dwarf that fell in love he inherited his father's priesthood after his father fell in the god wars.

Lesser races were races that branched and degenerated over time because of different reasons, like the lizard men that originated from the dragon men, or the Green goblins that originated from the goblins

Most lesser races are too primitive to live with the other races, so they were banished to different part of Abe-Run

Unbeknownst to all this realm's residents, the realm was about to usher in a new era.
