Prologue: A Tale before a Story

 

In a time long forgotten, when the world was still young, where the sons of god walked on the same ground as the sons of men, peace ensued the land and all lived in equal bliss.

 

The land was fertile; the waters, abundant of life. Work was no work and life was lived in complete harmony, a paradise.

 

Time moved its course and the sons of god saw the beauty of mortal women. And thus, they married the daughters of men. The union of which had brought offsprings, creatures known as Nephilims. Half god, half human, the Nephilims became the first rulers of the human civilization.

 

As a gift, their fathers gave them the knowledge between right and wrong. It was to aid them in proper governance of the arising realm of might and prosperity, a new heaven on Earth.

 

But that did not happen.

 

Hope as the gods may, the outcome was far from what could have been ideal.

 

This intellect has fueled the Nephilims’ egos. As half-gods, elite beings, named rulers who shall inherit the Earth, they deemed themselves invincible, superior to all other beings. They started to crave for more—as if paradise wasn’t enough.

 

The Nephilims’ desire blossomed to what soon became greed. Some pursued more strength; some, more wealth; some, delved into more knowledge; and some, more conquest, more people, more land under their command.

 

The idea of arising atop the top has driven their insatiability further. It has become a competition. A battle to superiority. As virtue was set aside, sin was born.

 

Life has never been the same anymore.

 

Doubt emerged between the Nephilims. Families were broken and trust became scarce. The whole was split in to parts, and thus, the earth was divided.

Chapter 6: There's a lot of questions and the story is done, uggh, what happened to Jiwoong? I was hoping for Taeyeon to witnesses Jiwoong assaulting Miyoung in the great temple and Taeyeon fighting his brother but i didn't expect to see Miyoung hanged, but she passed out, out of energy from labor so definitely it was Jiwoong who tied her to make it look suicide... Uggh, lot of questions but not enough answers... But this story is well written, nice nice, it screamed a continuation needed!! Kekeke
