Pov Selene:
I look at the city around , it was empty, a city that was built over 800 years ago and the capital of an empire that conquered this entire planet, but this city, like all the main cities on this planet, is empty, with no signs of battles, no bodies, no sign that there were ever people here other than cleaning the city.
"Mother, why did you co here?" (Elizabeth)
"To rember what we are fighting for." ()
"Gods are not above Mortals to rule or anything like that, you more than anyone know that, we serve to guide people, these sa people are important, we choose to guide, teach and be there when these people need it most." ()
"But even Gods are not omnipotent, sotis we need to rember that..." ()
I walk through this city, everything was clean, organized and yet it was a desolate silence, this place was so busy a few days ago, but in just one night it beca like this.
I walked until I arrived in front of a temple, the only place destroyed in this entire city, a Temple where I was one of the worshiped deities.
"This was not the only place, everything happened very quickly, we had no ti to react" (Elizabeth)
"The Ascendants are always like this, I saw through my echoes in many universes how they fight, their wars and campaigns of conquest are won before they even begin, they are massive projects that take a long ti to prepare, but regardless of where they are, the Ascendants hate the Gods." ()
"The question is not what they did here, but rather, why did they do it now?" ()
"Are they preparing for sothing? But with that number of missing people, would it be a war?" (Elizabeth)
"No, that would be unlikely, but I wouldn't completely rule out the idea." ()
"I want you to get ready, along with your sisters, stay in Okan and prepare the ritual, we'll only have one chance." ()
"We need Zenos for the Ritual." (Elizabeth)
"He'll be here in ti and that's if he's not the cause of this sudden movent." ()
"Do you think he's coming back? That fast?" (Elizabeth)
I don't need to look at my daughter and see her face, I know what she's thinking, the way Zenos' Divine statues were being affected by whatever happened to him outside of here, as well as other unknown factors, the chance of him being back would be slim.
But in my mind I think differently, I rember everything about him from the mont he was born as my son, I also rember the one who was the original owner of his na.
"(He'll be here...)" ()
"With his bad luck, there's no chance he won't get involved in sothing this big." ()
He still doesn't understand that his bad luck has always been a sign of destiny, not sothing that is predestined, but rather the result of his decisions, the worst and the best outco are always separated by a thinner line than anyone would like to accept.
"I'll let everyone know, his daughter is the one responsible for the ritual, I'll go to Irina now." (Elizabeth)
"< Divine Blood Magic: Bloodline Portal >" (Elizabeth)
I feel her opening a portal wherever she goes, so when she leaves, I turn to the corner where soone who was waiting for their turn appears before .
"You're late." ()
"I didn't expect to be called by you, not now." (Davoth)
"This is the best ti to revisit what you promised." ()
--------------------
Pov Alice:
I was kneeling in front of Zenos' statue as I do every morning, behind were hundreds of Priests, each of them praying to their respective Gods.
"Alice, you need to co with ." (Ragnar)
"Wait, I..." ()
"We don't have ti!" (Ragnar)
"..." ()
Ragnar appears next to , then he grabs my shoulder saying a few words before pulling by the shoulder straight out of the Communal Temple, spreading his wings then, he takes us flying out of Okan.
The other Familiars and Heralds of Zenos were already here, they were all looking at a planet changing its position along with all the natural raw energy flow of this star system, it was like watching an Eclipse forming.
"What do you want to show ?" ()
"Don't just look at this Eclipse, look around, you'll notice it even better than us, use your Sacred power." (Zaya)
"..." ()
I did what Zaya said, I make my Sacred Power circulate within , then I concentrate it on my Aura and eyes, increasing my perception.
It was at that mont that my eyes wandered, I saw in the distance stars being covered by asteroids, planets, Moons and even monsters as if thousands of Eclipses were happening at the sa ti.
An Eclipse is the result of a point of view, it is about sothing taking the lead over sothing else in an act of eclipsing that thing, to contemplate an Eclipse you need to be in the correct point of view with the Sun and a Moon being the best examples as well as representatives of this term.
An Eclipse is already rare, having several is abnormal, but contemplating so many Eclipses in a single position is another level, this can only be a warning, a resonance with the one who represents these Eclipses, he is close, he is back.
My body trembled as my mind raced through the possibility that Zenos had returned. I didn't need to say anything to the others. My reaction was enough to confirm what must have already been on their minds.
"When will that damned master return!?" (Layla)
"Actually, we don't even know where he'll return from..." (Nix)
"We need to prepare to receive him." (Haku)
"Let everyone know, get ready for battle." (Cinthia)
With that, Cinthia was the first to disappear back into Okan. Everyone else voiced their opinions, so with concern on their expressions and others with anxious smiles on their faces. Then, everyone imdiately began to act.
In the end, only I was left outside with Okan.
"Holy cow, why does everyone think there's going to be a battle?" (Okan)
"If there's such a big commotion, then the Ascendants will also notice, and we know they're after him." ()
"There's going to be a big battle, we have to be ready." ()
Saying that, I nod to Okan, before returning to his body, I also need to prepare the Priests as well as warn his Wives.

Pov Zenos:
I was floating near the opening of Freya's Tree where the thick natural energy flowed, a strong gust of that power passed through , almost massaging my Soul.
From within that place a woman erged, her beauty was spectacular, her body was slender, her long hair looked like strands of the starry sky itself, her two pairs of eyes were black with a bright green iris with a triangle as a pupil, it was like seeing a large green sun in the middle of space with a pyramid on its surface.
Her clothes were green leaves with black details forming a dress that went down to her feet, on her back wings that seed to be made of translucent leaves in a dark green color, her ears were longer than those of an Elf and seed much more flexible than those of a normal Elf.
Her skin was grayish, but what caught the most attention about her was the vertical eye on her forehead, when she appeared it was closed and looked like just a thin line surrounded by tattoo-like markings that looked like tree branches that covered her forehead, these tattoo-like markings were also black.
When her third eye opened, I realized it was twice the size of her other eyes. I also realized that this eye was just an iris with 7 super thin rings in different colors inside, separated into layers. It was as if her third eye was a portal to another place with imnse depth.
Her Aura was literally out of this world, as if her Aura was the sa type as that of the planets, a purely natural Aura, and the energy emanating from her body was the sa raw energy that flows through the universe. It was incredible to be in her presence. I could feel the Essences flowing through her and through her without being contained, without actually being part of her.
Looking closer, I could even see so scales that have a wood texture on her wrists and part of her arms. Her figure had completely changed from what it was before.
"Welco, Luci." (Freya)
"Luci... I'm Luci..." (Luci)
Her expressionless face turns to Freya as soon as she hears her voice, but when she hears her na she doesn't seem to understand for a brief second before her three eyes close, she repeats the na a few tis and her Aura becos more and more centered, acquiring familiar traits that it had before.
When she opens her eyes again, the third eye remains closed and she turns to for a brief second before focusing again on Freya who walks a few more steps opening her arms in a sincere smile.
Luci hesitates for only a brief mont before embracing Freya lovingly and gently, then they separate as all of Tarzor seems to vibrate with bursts of power from the Familiar reality passing through .
"It seems that the Family reunion will have to wait until next ti." ()
