Gods’ prophecy.
Before the time was recorded, even before the daylight was named like that. Gods had their own place of living and anything that disturbed them would follow destruction. The prophecy said:
“Water and ground may find their balance, but if a disturbance is caused, they will fight for territory and destruction will be unstoppable.”
The prophecy passed generation to generation, letting know the children that they can never underestimate the power of water and ground. Several totems where made to let them know the power each god possessed. And so, with the pass of years, this prophecy vanished from the minds of people.
One day, a group of people decided to wake up the God of water to start a revolution, and so, to win space and to let the cities drowned and start a new world. The representative of the God of Water woke up and stood beside the group that were looking for him. It was a big white shark and his presence intimidate the group to continue in their task, some even decided to turn down the mission and go away. But the leader, he stood up and talked with the shark.
We want the God of Water to take our wish, his wish, to turn this world fully into water and create a new one. Come with us.
The shark only saw how they were crazy of power, and decided to talk: The God isn’t how you think; he will destroy everything in his sight, even you.
And with that, he went away.
The group didn’t cared of his words, and with that, they woke up the God of Water with a song lost in time, with an old totem and their wish.
The God woke up and with that, the waves started crushing the land, the storms started to gather all around the oceans and coasts. A new form of destruction was created.
It was no long until the creatures on land stared to scream, to run and to be afraid of every step they make. A tragic faith had strike them. A short time passed until an old bear, remembered the legends of that town. And so, he decided to wake up the God of Ground. He went with a totem that was given to him when he was just a baby by his owner. He stood up with his paws and sang the song lost in time:
Young and graceful
The fathers and kids of our generation
Let the skies be the guardian
Let the water be the healer
Let the ground be the protector
Thy lives are in their possession.
The God stood up and destroyed everything in his sight, even the creatures in his site. No one knew the prophecy, the problems it would cause. And so, the Gods fought for territory, a new world was created, with no one who could presence it.
