Chapter 43 - 40: Family (1/2)
In the dark space, not far from the atmosphere of planet Eflore, space cracked in a certain place and seemed to be collapsing on itself when two figures suddenly appeared side by side. The man was handsome beyond words while the woman carried a sense of elegance and ethereal beauty. These were none other then Ysion and Vuris.
”Father?” Vuris seemed confused towards the sudden teleportation and turned left and right her eyes finally stopping on the blue pearl of a planet bellow them.
”My child, first choose the birth place of your race.”
Her eyes lit up and darted across the whole planet seemingly scanning it before they finally rested on a certain location east of the Dragon continent. Between the Dragon continent and the Obuin continent was a large ocean that separated the two continents, it was in the middle of this place that Vuris the Goddess of Water has chosen her race to be born. She turned to look at her father expectantly with shining eyes like a child finding a new toy. He smiled at her and patted her head making her blush, before he teleported both of them back to his throne room.
There was no one else in the giant room when they suddenly appeared. He slowly climbed the stairs to his seat before sitting down, Vuris however was waiting by the foot of the stairs once he sat down she bowed to which he just waved at her to stand up.
”Now then, shall we get started?” He asked grinning at her. Looking at him Vuris felt her heart jumping in excitement, it was time she was finally going to get her own race! One to worship her!
”Yes father!”
***********
The pair started their work, Vuris describing her preferences and how she would like her race to be, while Ysion followed her wishes occasionally giving her advice on what would be better changed.
It did not take long before the progenitors of the race appeared floating in the throne room, one male the other female, they had light blue skin and long wild green hair, webbed hands instead of normal ones, a fish's tail, and eyes that burn like red-hot coals. Behind their pinkish-grey lips lay two rows of sharp teeth to help them tear their prey apart. The woman stood at 2 meters tall while the male was 3 meters.
Vuris looked at them smiling and slowly walked closer, when she was near them she gently touched their cheeks her eyes turning red as tears threatened to fall down.
”They are beautiful, my children...”
”What would you like to name them?” Asked Ysion smiling gently at her.
”They are my children the children of water, So their names will be the Children of the sea, he shall be Oceanus and she Ariel the progenitors of the Children of the Sea.” She replied while gently looking at the floating bodies that had their eyes closed.
Ysion nodded at her and spoke ”Children of the Sea it is then, before sending them down however let's call your siblings,”
Vuris clearly more then excited replied ”Yes, father allow me to call them!” She then then send a mental msg to her siblings informing them of the summons of their father, Xulene, Kizdall, Urnera and Zodohr however were unreachable as they were still in the gate.
It did not take long before the knocking sound came from the giant doors, Ysion waved his hands and the doors opened with a loud creaking noise soon followed by the figures of Ovva, Fydur, Zuhnir and Kieyr.
They walked steadily while shooting a curious glance at the strange humanoid bodies floating next to Vuris. Once they reached the foot of the throne they all simultaneously bowed and spoke in unison.
”Greetings Father!”
Ysion gave a small nod acknowledging their greeting before speaking ”Rise my children, I know you are wondering as to why I have summoned you here today but first let's call the others out shall we? everyone needs to be present for this occasion.” He smiled to which everyone but Vuris seemed confused but dared not speak. He then quickly drew a strange symbol in the air before the air in the room began to rumble and a portal appeared behind the gods.
