*TW* legend of the elixir

Dark truth of the Elixir

A very long, long time ago, back when witches, sorcerers, angels, devils, vampires, werewolves and all sorts of creatures, and where magic still exists. All of them lived in peace, minding their own business.

However, one day, the Lord of evilness got bored and had enough of doing either nothing or the same thing over and over. So, the Lord ordered all the evil creatures to create something, something so powerful that would destroy all good creatures, destroy everything good, because only evils deserve to exist. The witches, sorcerers, devils, vampires, and all other evil creatures started to work on creating that 'something powerful'. Tests after tests, recipes after recipes, potions after potions, curses, and spells. Still nothing. Eventually, they started to give up. Slowly, one by one, they started leaving the project, and went on their own, more and more as time passed by as the Lord got more impatient and decided to set a time limit. Which is to produce it by the end of this year and started implementing the law to behead those who fail to at least produce something.

One of the witches in particular, more evil, insane, disturbing, disgusting, and gruesome than Satan himself. She started experimenting in twisted ways. She wanted to kill Satan and take over, becoming lord herself.
Everyday and night she went out in search of pregnant ladies, which she would then pull out their fingernails one by one with great force and place them in a container. And use her demotic claws to stretch open the women's uterus and pull the fetus out. Or kipnap fresh born babies from the hospitals, and infrants from inattentive or distracted parents.
And Every night she would also transformed herself into a innocent and vulnerable old lady who is in trouble and bait help as she needed to find someone with a pure soul.

For she has created a ritual.

Which needed a pure soul, and to sacrifice 100 lives of fetus, fresh born babies and infrants. For they are the symbol of youth.

The ritual has to be performed in a certain way such that there has to be 30 fetus and 50 fresh born babiesamd 20 infrants. It needs only start preparing at midnight. 12am.
Then she has to stab all 50 fresh born babies in the heart. Put containers below them while letting all of them bleed out to death, collecting all their blood in separate containers. Which after, she'll have to dissect all the 100 hearts and brains out.

She then threw all 20 infants into a big pot of boiling water, watch it slowly get burnt alive and cooked to death while collecting all their cries and screams in the now so called 'soup'.
After which, she used the pure soul which she collected and add all  mother's bloody fingernails. Take a piece of each of the 100 raw brains, with a bowl of the 'soup' and a drop of blood from each of the babies into a pot and start casting a spell, while chanting demonic phrases, and curses.

The pot starts vibrating bit by bit, then starts shaking violently. A potion was in progress, the whole room suddenly had huge gust of winds even though it was indoors. Everything started flying, all the ritual papers, spell books, voodoo dolls, all the bloody dissected parts of what was left of all the 100 fetus, babies and infants started glowing red and then came a low deep humming sound. Then a force or some sort grabbed the witch by her neck and held her high. She couldn't see anything there, and before she knew it, she was killed in an instant.

That was the side effects of the ritual which she didn't know, but by the time she had found out, it was already too late. The moment the invisible force made her neck snap, beheading her, the ritual was complete. The last requirement of the ritual was to have the soul and spiris of the one that casted it. The witches soul and spirit was sucked into the pot. And now lay her lifeless body on the ground...an empty shell, and her head hanging above the pot.
But the as soon as the wicthes soul and spirit was dissolved, the potion started bubbling and reduced itself slowly, transforming into an elixir.
Everything else in the pot was starting to disappear, till its completely gone. All that's left was the elixir.

It is the elixir of immortality, the greatest power of all. In fact, the most powerful. One would never age, never needing food or sleep etc. Never get hurt again, even if they do, they will regenerate and nothing will ever kill them. Not even feeling pain, and living for eternity, even when the world is gone, they will still be there, floating around. And since it also had the witch's soul and spirit, you would also take her energy, and possess her powers.

However, since the ritual and everything was created and done by the witch and now that she is gone, there is nobody to take the elixir.
It disappeared and went into hiding and it still has the witches spirit guarding it.
Soon after a few months, when satan ordered to kill the witch as he did with others who failed to produce something. But when other evil creatures realise the witch was missing, they went in search of her. Thinking that maybe the witch ran away knowing that the lord is on a hunt for those who failed to create something.

Those evil creatures travelled all around the underworld and finally found her secret hiding spot. But when they finally reached, a pungent foul smell of rotting flesh hits them. They ignored and budged in only to find her rotting lifeless body covered in a pool of dried blood.
Dust with insects and parasites all over, sucking every last bit of flesh and blood out of her. They looked up to what seemed to be her head, but is just flesh rotting away on her skull, hung above the pot. One of the eyes missing, her mouth opened wide as if trying to scream, and her neck with strangled marks. Her body was surrounded by what seemed like leftover dead bodies of babies, blood stains all over the place, and slimy liquid everywhere.
They were all in shock, started gossiping, then laughing menacingly, mocking the witch for her carelessness and stupidity. But curiosity got the best of them as they all wondered what was the witch trying to create that had cost her her life. Did she really sacrificed herself just to make something powerful and otherworldly for the lord? Such a loyal servent to the lord indeed.

The evil creatures decided to search the room. One by one, they was reading all the spell books, curses, and rituals. Hoping to find something, and that's when one of them noticed something about the dead babies. And realized all their hearts and brains were missing. They tallyed the descriptions with each and every spell, curse and rituals and soon they found out about the ritual. 

This caused a stir, the greed for such a great power took over, the evil creatures began fighting each other, wanting the elixir for themselves. This caused a huge commotion, which soon made satan find out about it too. The lord demanded to know the truth and everything else. He decided to kill all those who lied and is unfaithful or unloyal to him. He sent out a message to all, promising that whoever finds the elixir and gives it to satan first, will get a huge power boost, and become the new lord. He claimed that he was planning to retire anyways, and wanted to someone worthy to be the new lord.

This is how the elixir of immortality got discovered, hence a legend was created and rumours about it began to spread, reaching far and wide. Such that other universes and realms have heard about it. All, or at least almost everyone started searching, and searching, risking their lives, traveling across realms, universes. Facing enemies, invisible dark forces out there, hidden, going beneath then being a creature that doesn't belong to any of the realms or universes, dangerous paths, crossing poisonous rivers, just to find the elixir of immortality...

Few thousands of centuries have passed, the world has evolved, those realms started disappearing one by one without reason, those creatures in them started fading to ashes. Universes started dying, together with everyone and everything else in them, magic has slowly disappeared into present day. Where now it is just left with just the human realm. Or so everyone thought.
But there was still a few angels and devils, and some vampires and werewolves left, all hiding, far away from humans as they are slowly going extinct. Even though present day, most humans don't believe in real magic, and supernaturals, most of them have all heard about the legend, as it has been passed down from generations to generations.

Little did they know that the elixir of immortality still exists and it has been hiding in their realm all this time...
