Ch.1 Ethereal

The fiery sun gently arose above the tall trees and litters of marble and wood cities, starting the new boisterous day on the mortal Earth. While higher than the clouds stood tall buildings colored white as snow, they towered over the glowing ground made of the the fluffy clouds. Light glowing figures walked around while some flew with massive, grand feathered wings. The city sat high upon the clouds, it would be impossible for any mortal to reach without being brought up by one of the gods, which was illegal without permission.

The place, itself was ethereal and so were the residents. Everything there was some sort of dream, it was a place no one could imagine without feasting their eyes upon it themselves.

Amongst the godly beings was a surprisingly tall, green hooded figure unlike the others. His hood hid most of his facial features other than his light brunette hair. Instead of a having a glow like the other gods he gave off darkness or a feeling of dread. The others avoided him as they spoke to their own companions. This deity was called Dream by the mortals, despite his name sounding cheerful, he was the god of The Underworld. However, he was not frowned upon for that, The Underworld was something that was needed for a world to thrive afterall, where else would souls of the departed go. The other gods only had a dislike towards him because of a few of his unjustified actions. Gods didnt have many morals, however they had certain laws that he had happened to break.

The god came to the home of the gods, Olympus quite often. It was much easier for him to watch over mortals from that elevated of a place. He found it more eventful than sitting around in the underworld all day. Dream had little to no empathy towards most people or mortals, he often smiled and laughed watching brutal wars, famine, and death from the lavish heavens.

He had walked directly to the far lands of the clouds also known as the end of Olympus. He gently sat down, his legs dangled off the fluffy side as he watched the foolish mortals, a bored expression on his face. Sadly for him, it was an uneventful day on the Earth.

He sighed quietly to himself as he put his elbow against his thigh and his head agaisnt his cold palm. He was unbothered from the icey touch from his palm, in fact he was always cold due to living in the Underworld. The Underworld was quite cold compared to mosg places for the gods. Many of the people who inhabited it have gotten used to it though.

A bird flew directly below the cloud he sat on, he quickly zapped it pit of the sky, smiling as it fell to its death.
Dream was highly apathetic, meaning he got unintrested in almost everything in a matter of minutes. This happened to be one of those times. Thus, thats why he took out his boredom on innocent creatures. he also liked to take it out on peaceful mortals. Thus, he decided he would mess with some of the mortals for today.

He stared directly at one of the children playing in the feild, and snapped his fingers. The child fell to the hard ground and passed out. The other now distressed mortals rushed to the child's side as they started panicking.

Dream now pleasantly appeased, smiled gently, sat up and walked away from the ledge of the cloud and back to the city of the gods.
