The next morning, an elf asks his friends to proceed to the throne room where they would meet King Filanwin. The room was very simple and there were no plants. There were only two thrones carved out of solid white rock and it was full of details and carvings. In the room were King Filanwin and Queen Yhirllien, sitting on their thrones, and Elwin was standing beside his mother. Elwin had his cloak and hood covering his face, with a brown shirt and brown pants with mudded metal boots that went up to his knees. The king wore dark robes and a mantle of very fine materials. His hair was golden and his eyes were very dark blue. The Queen wore transparent white silk robes and her beauty was very impressive, her hair was silver, like that of the elven princess. The king looked haughtily at the three friends who bowed on one of their knees. Hilbert, still on his knees, introduces himself.
"It is a pleasure to be before Your Majesty! I'm Hilbert Ygdrazz White and these are my companions, Gödel and Matilda Troderitch!" says Hilbert calmly and then gets up, followed by his friends. "I need information about an ancient legend and about someone named Arkhatov."
"Those eyes." the king looked deeply into the prince's eyes. "They are your family's inheritance. The blood of one who was once a dear son of Gaia runs through your veins." says the king, still looking at him with an air of superiority. Friends are surprised by these words.
"I'm sorry for my ignorance, but I don't know what you're talking about, Your Majesty!" says Hilbert puzzled by the kings' glare.
"This tale was not recorded by humans. Only orality carried and distorted it through time! The time has come to know about the truth. I hope that after that you will accept your destiny. Everything I am going to tell you dates from ages ago and were not accounted by human calendars. I know that doubt consumes you. I can feel it in your heart. All of this is related to those who persecute you, including Arkhatov! I ask you to pay attention to what I am going to talk about, as it is a very long tale!" says the elven king. Everyone listened attentively as the king continued to speak.
"The gods themselves told these stories to my grandfather hundreds of millennia ago. I was small when I met the face of the gods." says the king crossing his arms and continues. "This universe was completely empty, only a large amount of matter and energy was accumulated in a central point. The universe was not yet conscious, until the first thought arose, Life." The king pauses and opens his eyes wide. "At that moment, the entire energy flow and the accumulated matter spread throughout the universe. From that thought was born Gaia the goddess of creation. She toured the static universe shaping galaxies and planets using celestial matter and energy. The universe was still dark and lifeless. Gaia sighed with sadness and from that sigh the god Ignis Helius arose, creating all the gases that exist in the universe. Gaia wanted the universe to be less dark and from the warmth of her heart the god Ignis Pyro was born. Pyro used his celestial flame to create the stars with the elements Helius gathered. These gods helped Gaia shape the universe, they were rivals and allies. From the first light of Pyro that touched the celestial body of Gaia, shadows emerged. Gaia's shadow became conscious. Nocthanath is the goddess of night and death, and she accompanies the passage of the living to the various dimensions of the dead in its three different forms. The goddess's creation was perfect, but she felt that the planets were very vast and empty. From her tears came all the liquids in its various states and this matter created consciousness by becoming the god Famthos. This god permeated his mother's planets with various liquids. The joining of the celestial elements began to shape the planets, but something was not right and the worlds were still lifeless. Gaia thought that the planets should contain a core that could carefully retain all the other elements clustered by her children, so that life could manage to sustain itself. That thought spawned Atmos the god of the earth element and all metals. The conditions were ideal for all life in the universe to be configured. Life was gradually emerging, but it was different from his children, the other gods. So Gaia decides to create beings that resemble her and her children." the king pauses. Hilbert and Matilda were watching the king while Gödel looked lost.
