Godenzonen - sons of the gods

Godenzonen- sons of the gods (Episode 3)

When rogue angels led by an angel called Malaeel stole fruit from Ari in Eden, it was their intention to spawn a terrible new creation. Mortals who by eating Ari's fruit transformed into 'the undying', would be an abomination before the heavens, an anomaly that would surely displease even the Most High.

This was the joy of the rogue angels, to cause a stir in Heaven at the abomination that had been created upon the earth. They were greatly disappointed however, that their actions were merely ignored by the King of Heaven, so that the thing they thought they had created to be a displeasure to Him became instead a constant provocation and mockery unto them.

Ari's stolen fruit was delivered by Malaleel and his cohorts to the black king of Omira as blacks were already by merit, the leading race of humans upon the earth at the time. The black king who first received Ari's fruit was King Sochi, son of Aimar.

When Malaeel gave him the precious fruit, King Sochi had his reservations about the fallen angel's intentions. He did not trust Malaleel neither did he believe that eternal life was an angel's to give. Were they themselves (the angels) not imbued with eternal life? How much had that helped them; because to King Sochi they were at best eternal fugitives in their present situation.

King Sochi was already well-worn in years by the time Malaeel's offer came to him and he chose not to eat of the fruit of Ari because he was content to die at his appointed time. He did not think it loss to rebuff Immortality because he did not think highly of the life which he had lived even though he lived most of his life as a king.

He told Malaeel in his own words: "I see myself as I am sure much of the world sees me: a mass murderer under whose command a multitude of lives have been destroyed and their possessions pillaged as spoil. I do not believe that striving to live forever would do either myself or the earth much good. I think when it is my time to join my fathers, it should be allowed to proceed without restraint."

Although King Sochi utterly refused to eat the fruit of Ari, he allowed his son and heir- Meze, to eat of the fruit of the tree of life. It meant Meze, a black Prince, became the first of the undying, mortals who death could not claim their souls anymore, hence had become immortals. He was the progenitor of Na'ari upon the earth and from him, a new race of supernatural beings begun to exist upon the earth.

King Sochi's reason for allowing his son Meze eat the fruit of Ari in his place was because he trusted Meze to carry the responsibility that would come with being King of Omira forever. King Sochi had implicit faith in his son, who he saw as a much better version of himself. Meze was not his first son but he had proven himself in the contest to become his heir, a tradition the blacks of Omira called 'the press of princes'

Meze in his father's eyes, was a wise prince who could clearly discern right from wrong and possessed both temperament and courage to rule over a vast kingdom that was ever expanding, such as Omira. King Sochi also had great respect for the wisdom of Meze's mother Zorona. Of all his wives, she was the one most imbued by the heavens with the gift of wisdom and he had little doubt that she would be a prized asset as an advisor to their son.

Besides all of this though, King Sochi was no fool. He understood that Malaeel was determined to do that which he set out to accomplish and if the royal family of the blacks completely rejected the rogue angel's offer... then he would take the fruit of life elsewhere and give it to some other persons, maybe even a non-black. Such an action would surely have dire consequences on King Sochi's progeny in particular and the blacks of Omira in general.

With Prince Meze becoming Na'ari, King Sochi's house could at least have a significant role in whatever script would unfold upon the earth following the emergence of the undying. It was as King Sochi learnt from his own father before him, King Aimar:

"A king must be at the forefront of any good or evil happening in his kingdom. Whenever the King becomes a bystander in the affairs of his own kingdom, his claim to the throne will soon be put up for discussion by usurpers ."

Thus it was with the King's explicit consent that Prince Meze ate of the fruit of Ari to become the First of Na'ari, the undying. After the Prince ate of the fruit, he gave his own mother Queen Zorona to eat of the fruit of Ari. It was Queen Zorona who first suggested to Prince Meze that it would be prudent for him to secretly plant seed of the tree of life and nurture it into his own Ari tree.

The Prince did not even know if this could be done as no one had ever tried to grow any of the Supernatural trees found in Eden anywhere else on the earth. Of course there was the constraint that no one had been in possession of such precious seed which would even make it possible to plant such a tree in the first place.

Meze genuinely feared the consequences of planting the seed of Ari without knowing for certain what it could grow into, so against the counsel of his mother, he broached the topic with Malaeel the next time they spoke.

Meze feared that if the tree of life was planted outside of Eden, it could become a source of death rather than life and his fears were confirmed by Malaeel who warned strongly against planting the seed of Ari without first recreating the conditions of the garden of Eden. The fruit of such a tree planted in ordinary earth using the seed of Ari could be death and uncontrollable disaster.

Thus Meze understood from Malaeel's warnings that Ari's planting anywhere outside Eden was a recipe for disaster. From the Red book however, I gleaned something different about the planting of this supernatural tree. Doing this was not as impossible as it seemed. There was a way and it was known to Malaeel, but he hid it.

For King Sochi, in a short passage of time, from when the rogue angel Malaeel first came close to his family bearing with him the gift of immortality, the king fell ill and it was onto death. The head of the Dibias, who were the guild of doctors, told the king to put his affairs in order as he would soon be dining with his fathers, an euphemism to mean his death was imminent.

Seeing King Sochi within the clutches of death's grip, Malaeel tried once again to convince him to eat of the fruit of the tree of life which is called Ari. The rogue angel drew Sochi's attention to how young and beautiful Queen Zorona was looking since she ate of the fruit of Ari given her by her son.

Malaeel tried to use this instance of Queen Zorona's regeneration to convince King Sochi to eat of the fruit of Ari as he yet desired for King Sochi to be the king of Na'ari but the dying king staunchly refused.

"My ancestors, the kings of Omira before me, they were fighting men, great black warriors who never turned back from a challenge. If death is the challenge, I will not turn back from meeting it. After it must have dissipated its energies, I will conquer it because I am confident that it cannot completely destroy all of me... I shall remain and what remains of me shall not just be immortal, it shall be free.
It is freedom that I truly desire, not just immortality for the sake of it. To be free, I must face this last challenge with death and I must face it without fear. The one who is without fear, triumphs."

These two- man and angel, shared several conversations in King Sochi's last days as Malaeel was an ever present by his side. The rogue angel even helped alleviate the pain the King should have suffered as death's embrace drew nearer. The words, the secrets, that these two shared in the entirety of the conversations between them, they are all recorded in the Red book.
