A long time ago, when God still was
in the process of creating the Earth, he ran into a problem. God realized that
as long as Adam and Eve began to conceive, the world could not hold an infinite
number of his creations. To solve this problem, God took a piece of the night
sky and carved it into a child. Then, he took a piece of the sunrise, and then
carved a child into it. He named the first child Death, and the second he named
Life. Life, being full of light and joy, was set free to roam the Earth and the
heavens. Death, however, was given a set of rules. Death may only kill:
·
To put someone out of intense pain or misery
·
Their soul has become completely dark
·
Their scroll says that it is their time to die
A scroll room was given to Death as
well. It contained a new scroll every time another person came to exist. The
scroll had the exact time and date a person was to cease to exist. Death spent
his time reading the scrolls and guiding souls to the Underworld. So while Life
roamed the world shining light into the dark aspects of life, Death worked.
Death guided souls to their final resting place without fail. But one day,
Death found himself reluctant to detach one particular soul. The girl who he
could not bring himself to take was named Arriana. He took her, body and soul,
to the Underworld.
Life, who was supposed to grant
Arriana’s mother a child, could not. The balance had been thrown off. Furious,
Life ran to the Underworld. God stopped him. God reminded Life that if Death
attempted any other contact with a mortal other than guiding their soul,
Death’s power would flee him. Life ran even faster to save his brother, but it
was too late. When Life found the couple, Arriana was the new Death, and the
original Death was reduced to ashes.
Life vowed then and there to never
fall in love with a mortal, he did not want to turn to ashes like his brother.
But Arriana became the new Death. But there was another problem. Arriana still
had a mortal’s heart. During her years doing Death’s work, she fell in love, and
then was turned to ashes. Her love fell in love, and then turned to ashes. And
so forth.
In the meanwhile, many new forces
were created. The quadruplets; Summer, Winter, Spring, and Autumn. The forces
of nature; Wind, Tsunami, Tornado, Earthquake, and Hurricane, etc. They lived
in the immortal realm. Occasionally, an immortal will visit the mortal realm
and wreak havoc. The world has been going on like this for centuries….
