The gods of Terra

Untitled Part 1

Chapter one- Birth of a god

On a stormy night in the year 1335 the first-born god came into existence. This was frowned upon by the other gods because his mother had no husband. This child was born from the affair of two gods, Autto, god of darkness, and Straya, goddess of death. A mistake took place when Autto cheated on his wife, Nina the goddess of the sun, and Straya was to bear his child. Before this child was even born he was looked down upon and hated, though he did nothing wrong. This child's name would be Portos the god of the moon, for he will become a god of the night. So, he was born in the safety of his mother's territory far away from the other gods that would want to hurt him. Fate though would be kind to the boy for little did he know a few day later a goddess was born. And this girl would be the only light that he ever received in his life. Her name was Eloise, daughter of the god of love Frec and the goddess of liberty, Ussa. These two children meet by accident when Frec came to talk to Straya about a territory dispute between two other gods, and Frec thought it would be nice for her daughter to meet someone close to her age.

"Eloise, I have someone I'd like you to meet, but when you meet him don't mention anything about his daddy okay." Frec told Eloise.

"Yes daddy, but who is it? I've met all your other friends. Who else is there to meet?" Replies Eloise.

"He's your age sweetie. He was born a few days before you. He's eight just like you." Explains Frec.

"But daddy boys are icky, that's what mommy tells me. She says the only reason she puts up with you is because you look nice." Says Eloise.

"Well remind me when I get home to talk to your mother about this situation. Oh, look sweetie here he comes, remember what I said to you." Frec says irritably.

Coming through the door is an eight-year-old boy dressed in black clothing, he had black hair and eyes that could make you believe you were falling endlessly into a hole. He was a handsome young boy like all other gods. And he held a sadder look about him as he was guided through the door by his mother Straya, who has the worst language of the god. But for goddesses she was beautiful, she had glossy black hair and tan complexion, her eyes were a beautiful foggy gray color. She was the goddess who welcomed the dead to their resting place for a temporary time, until Zhong the god of life gave them a new life.

"Portos look this girl in the eyes and be a gentleman or I'm gonna kick ya in the ass again. Like how hard is to look a pretty girl in the face with a damn smile occasionally." Yelled Straya. Portos did exactly what his mother told him instantly, but he didn't smile. When he looked up he saw a pretty girl like his mother said. She had hair was blonde like the sandy beach with eyes that were a warm reddish color. She was pale like her mother and father, but she seemed to have a sparkle about her. And standing next to her was a good-looking man, he was slender with blonde hair with blue eyes. He had a funny smile on his face when Portos looked at him.

"So, this is the infamous Portos I heard so much about from your mother. Exactly what I would expect from such a beautiful mother." Said Frec.

"Flattery will get you nowhere here Frec, let's start the discussion. Portos take Eloise and show her around but make sure you keep an eye on her you know how dangerous this place can be." Warned Straya.

"Yea sure, I'll keep an eye on the princess." Snorted Portos. Straya turned around and cracked Portos in the back of the head.

"That's what you get ya damn brat. Do as I say or next time it will be harder." Yelled Straya.
