Ascension of the Nephilim

The Ancient God Soter, who was a Being that Was, was among the first enemies that End had to defeat. For in the Code of Soter, the power of light would pierce through oblivion itself! Many powers of End would never reach its finality had Soter lived.

Yet the God known as the Morning Star had once again flashed its light on the world. It was as thin as a ray, but the implications made everyone nervous.

The gods and fallen who had betrayed the last of the living Ancient Gods all began to panic. While those that remained among the Ancient Gods rejoiced and sought the source of Soter.

Daradiel saw the light and could not help but weep.

"That light...! It's back! The Morning Star is back!"

Yet in the mystery of this surging power, the Light had not appeared in any location.

As the Temple was inside Middle, the surge of light that was invisible to most human eyes was hidden and didn't leak out into the Planes World.

Everyone could only sense it, but not know where it would be.

The powers rippled out and far out in the future, End and the rest sensed it.

"That light? How could it be? How could that light be kept hidden and I only know of it now?" End was confused.

He was at the End. He had read the history that Histerion would write. He had known the things that Lanthanou had damned to oblivion. He should have known, that sometime in history, the light would return. But it was only now that he learned of it.

"Somethings wrong. How can I have not known..." End frowned.

He had seen things from the beginning and had known of true history. This meant that he already had preparations for everything that would arise to threaten him. People that would have threatened him, events and countermeasures that would be made, had already been set by End.

But here was a Light that appeared outside of History. History was changing once more.

"What did you do, Beginning? How did you hide this?" End pondered.

Lanthanou was watching at the side and could tell that his recent actions might have led to this!

"What did I... forget!" Lanthanou raged. In all of history, he has never before met circumstances where his power would be something that will thwart the preparations of End!

"Prepare a force that will counter whatever it is that the returning light has made. Look for people with tremendous capabilities in the light. Arrange the future to kill them at the opportune time. I cannot do it alone anymore. I will have to focus my attention on resolving the branching possibilities." End gave his orders.

Everyone around him was amazed.

"Lord End... What if I just kill these problematic infants from the start?" Destiny asked.

"No. Such destiny will kill these people, but Beginning will act more cautiously at their deaths and create more champions and hide them. This will also disrupt history. Let these people live and rise. But since we know who they are, we kill them right before they make any crucial contribution. Our goal is to make sure that history is not changed drastically to what we know it will be." End began to explain the plans he has followed.

"Thora. Watch over all of creating and find these people of power."

"What of the True Neutrals?"

"We have to best ignore them. They do not understand this battle or what it will lead to. The plans I have set to deceive them into service remain unchanged! The future remains steadfast to what this. Knowing what the End does not mean that you act on it immediately. You have to wait for the opportune time to end that destiny. Are we clear?" End asked.

"We understand, Lord End." Everyone bowed.

Both Beginning and End's forces all sensed the power and were working on their ways to find it.

"Find it! According to Wisdom, the Nephilim have been born! This being is something we prepared but it has been forgotten! As for us, we prepare our forces! Use your powers to reach the present and stop whatever plans End has made! In desperation, all those borne of the Light will be targeted from now on and Destiny will be against them!" Beginning instructed.

"I shall combat that fool! Our goal is to hide the Nephilim even more! We are to use our powers and call superbly strong cultivators! With our power raising these champions, they won't suspect the Nephilim among them! The Nephilim have to be dwarfed by the champions we raise! But if he has defeated Lanthanou, he will definitely surpass all your champions!" Fate smiled.

"Go! We battle to the Present and prepare for the war of Middle!" Beginning instructed.

As the two groups made their plans and counterplans, hidden in mystery was Kyros, exploring the Nephilim Sealing Fortress.

"So the Nephilim and his armies will be sealed in this... We are also True Neutrals now thanks to the purging of Brimstone..." Kyros assessed.

"This place... is amazing!" Branze arrived.

"Indeed it is! But what else can it do beyond the provisions of these things?" Mezal asked.

"I noticed that my Champion level gear has also improved. It's now a Commander-grade weapon! The change must have surely added more incredible benefits!" Aron was excited to know.

"Alright. Since you are all so impatient... Let's see the full capabilities of the Fortress. I seem to have gained the power to make people see the stats on my command. I'll let the core team see it..."

Kyros then willed the display to appear before the Steele family, the Coven, and the Emberdons.

Everyone was amazed as they read it.

"Bring one member of the Coven in the Enlightenment Chamber. The rest are to be sent to the Hospital. It seems that that is what they need to grow stronger." Kyros quickly ordered.

His clones and the wraiths moved and brought the members of the Coven in with Martha being the first to be sent inside the Enlightenment Chamber.

"Explain to us what all your abilities imply and what you plan to do." Branze asked.

"The biggest benefit is the fact that the Library of Light is now the Library of the Light and Shade. With this, I plan to create... a dark army! If we want to be forgotten, we are to be an army of darkness! Our enemies should never remember that we hold the power of light!" Kyros smiled.
