Deva: The Beginning by adrinaxsh
29 parts Complete Mature
Deva: The Beginning In a universe on the brink of collapse, Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva-beings of unimaginable power-escape the destruction of their dying world and cross into a new, untouched reality. But they are not gods-not yet. Armed with the raw, untamed fire of creation, they seize this new universe as their own, shaping it to their will. This is their dominion, and they will stop at nothing to ensure their rule is absolute. In this universe, they fashion humans-not as equals, but as tools, servants meant to fuel their insatiable hunger for control. But the fire that gifted them their power burns with its own purpose, and as they mold the world in their image, they begin to learn that ambition comes with a dangerous price. Deva: The Beginning is a tale of primal power, lust, and the relentless pursuit of dominion. It is the story of beings who ascend from mere survival to become gods in a world that bends to their every desire-where ambition, sex, and control intertwine in a dance of creation and destruction. Yet the fire they control is as wild as the gods themselves, and its consequences will come crashing down on them all. This is not a tale of benevolent gods-this is a story of raw desire, unchecked ambition, and a universe that trembles under the weight of those who seek to control it. As the gods indulge in their newfound power, the fire watches silently, waiting for the moment when it will demand its price. For those who crave stories of power, sensuality, and a universe born from ambition, Deva: The Beginning promises a journey into the darker sides of creation-where gods are made, and worlds are torn apart.
