Episode 4: The Rise of a Forgotten Foe

Episode 4: The Rise of a Forgotten Foe

For a thousand years, the gods have ruled from Eternis, watching over the mortal realm. But peace is never eternal.

One night, a great disturbance shakes the heavens. The sky above Eternis cracks with an ominous rift, and a forgotten presence awakens from the void—a being once sealed away by the gods of old.

A monstrous figure draped in shadows steps through the rift, his very presence warping reality. His voice is like a thousand echoes at once:

"You thought time had erased me... but I have returned."

The gods immediately recognize him—not as a rival god, but something worse. He is a being of pure destruction, a remnant of the Primordial War, when gods first battled forces beyond comprehension. A being that should have remained buried in eternal slumber.

The Battle of Eternis Begins

Kael hurls his lightning spear, but the enemy catches it midair, crushing it with one hand.

Seraphina summons an ocean’s worth of water, turning it into a massive tidal wave—but the being walks through it unharmed, its form dissolving and reforming like living shadow.

Darius strikes with all his might, shaking the very land, but the foe barely flinches.

As the gods struggle, Orin steps forward, gripping his ancient sword. His blade hums with power, carrying the will of the fallen god who wielded it before him. But as he charges in, the entity smirks and whispers:

"You are not the first to raise that blade against me. The last one… fell before me like dust."

Orin hesitates for just a moment. Doubt seeps into his mind. If the previous wielder of his sword—a god powerful enough to be remembered—was defeated, what chance does he have?

The moment of hesitation costs him. The entity lashes out, striking Orin across the chest and sending him crashing into the golden steps of Eternis.

Elyra’s Desperate Gamble

Seeing Orin injured, Elyra rages. She summons a storm unlike any before, winds and lightning merging into a spiraling tempest. She refuses to let history repeat itself.

The battle continues to rage, but the gods realize something terrifying—this enemy is not just powerful. He is growing stronger. Every attack, every strike, every moment of conflict feeds him, making him more unstoppable.

If they continue fighting, they will lose.

A Fateful Decision

The gods have no choice—they must seal him away once more. But the last time this was done, it took the combined power of the old gods, and now only a handful remain.

Elyra, Orin, Kael, Seraphina, and Darius gather their strength, channeling their divine energy into a forbidden ritual—one that could either save them or doom them all.

As the ritual begins, the entity laughs, his voice shaking the very fabric of reality:

"You cannot stop what is coming. This world will belong to the forgotten. The gods will FALL."

And then—everything turns to light.

To be continued…
