A Tale of the End

In the End the universe was dying and it was just taking its last few breaths. The three eternals walked the realm, watching the last of the mortals clinging to final hope jumping from dying planet to dying planet. Danann the Goddess of Chaos, Ceannladir the God of Death, and Gramail the God of Time came together. Danann looked upon the races of mortals and saw their will to live and was impressed. She spoke to her brothers asking what they could do. Ceannladir stood quite staring among the last stars. Gramail looked at his brother and sister and finally spoke. "Brother, Sister, long have we walked this universe and long have we held to the creed that we shall not physically interfere with the mortals." Ceannladir slowly turned around and looked at Danann and frowned. "I have waited too long death will come to this universe. What would you have us do? I will have this universe." Danann bites her lip and looks at them both "let the universe die. These mortals have a strong will survive. Why can we not save them for the next universe?" Ceannladir looked over his shoulder lost in thought, Gramail nods slowly. "Yes but how? How do we save these mortals? We cannot intervene it is our oath." Ceannladir chuckles "who says we need interfere? Find the strongest of each race, and let's grant them divinity they will not be bound by our oath. Then once this universe is dead we will not be bound by it either. We can help create a world for these stragglers. Then watch over them till the next universe." Danann smiles and ran to hug her brother kissing his cheek "You have never let me down." Gramail chuckles and says "How shall we give them divinity? I have no mortal coil neither do you Danann and Ceannladir yours is enough to make them run away in fright" Ceannladir smiles "then we shall see how much they want to live."

Passed on by the Gods

Introduction

Xias was a world unlike any before. Xias was created, its system unlike any before, with two stars a smaller one "Mota" and a larger one "Lios". The gods came together to create Xmas. Xias in Human terms was a Dyson Sphere. It surrounded the smaller star and orbited the bigger one. Around the inner star the gods had built a floating astral palace that at any time covered half of the sun creating a day and night cycle on the inside and gave the inside its own atmosphere. The outside of Xias had its own atmosphere too letting life grow both on the inside and the outside. Xias had two moons the bigger moon "Risch" held the umbral palace of the gods. The smaller moon "Dne" held the resting place of the gods, a mausoleum to let the gods rest in peace. The outside held many oceans while the inside held more forests and jungles.

There were passages between the inner and outer called the great thoroughfares.

There were 26 gods in the beginning but Death, being the trickster he was, he gave them the power and made it so that after a certain amount of time he would be called to bring death to the gods. After their death a new god was chosen to take their place

The thirteen races were wary of each other at first but soon came to terms with their new living arrangements. The races are as follows:
