Cycle of Gods
Prologue
The world is controlled by multiple different gods. Eight major ones and many different minor ones. All of them are part of the cycle that keeps the world running normally. Each God works together with another to keep the cycle perfectly balanced.
However, incidents do occur where one or two gods go against the cycle. On most occasions it's for the better, on rare occasions it's for the worse. Take Pompeii for example, Ruin the major God of destruction, decided to force the minor God under both him and Death to erupt Mount Vesuvius. The result was disastrous for all the gods. The cycle was disrupted for years after that, it was terribly hard for the gods to catch up with what they had lost.
A few decades after that incident, the major gods decided that it was necessary for meetings to be held to keep track of the cycle and to better prevent incidents like that from happening again. The minor gods, who serve under the major ones, were only brought into the meetings if the topic involved them, or if they had vital information they needed to pass on.
Now about the cycle itself, it begins with Origin, the major God of creation, she creates the base of everything before passing it over to either Life or Divinity.Â
Life then takes the base and gives it, well she gives it life before passing it to Divinity.
Divinity takes the base or living thing and gives it beauty and special features before passing it to Philosophy.
Philosophy takes the base or living thing and gives it either a scientific explanation, or a mind of its own before passing it into a life of its own.
Down the line a living thing will encounter both Pacifism and Discord in its life, both gods working both with and against each other to “help” it.
At the end of the line a living thing would encounter Death, who will either be the cause or a factor in its demise.Â
For a nonliving thing it would encounter Ruin, who will destroy it in whatever way he deems practical.
Then the entire cycle goes back to Origin and the process starts all over again.
Within the cycle the minor gods play roles as well but with there being so many, they are placed under a major God to help with a specific part of the cycle. Often minor gods are used unfairly by the major gods, being forced to use their powers in a way they don’t wish too. Â
