In the beginning, there was nothing; only an empty void. The six Gods saw this and became lonely. They decided to create a home for themselves, a place where they could live. And so the world was created. Oren, the Goddess of Light, and Nero, the God of Darkness, watched over the world, each ruling for an equal period of time. Palo, the Goddess of Earth, created land for them to walk on, and Lao, the Goddess of Water, created oceans, rivers, and lakes to provide it with nourishment. Inix, the God of Fire, watched over the lands and cared for them along with Kalix, the God of Lightning. Then Nero and Oren created man and women and animals to share the land with and live peacefully.

One day, Nero became jealous of Oren, and conspired with Kalix to overthrow her and rule alone. A great war was fought between the Gods, destroying lands and breaking them into pieces, but after the final battle, Oren was victorious over Nero. As punishment, Kalix was imprisoned in the sky, and Nero was trapped in a crystal and sent deep into the earth.

After thousands of years, however, the crystal resurfaced, and the people found it. They examined it from afar, but when they reached out for it, the God of Darkness struck and moved into their minds, taking control of their beings. He could control them and their every action from inside the crystal. Thus began the Second Divine War.

Oren knew that the only way they could combat Nero was to become crystals themselves and bestow their power among the rest of humanity. The people took that power and fought against Nero to defeat him once again. His crystal was put away and guarded so that no one else would be affected by his spirit.

From that day on, the Crystals of the Gods were used to protect the world from the evil that lingered after the Second Divine War. They built armies dedicated to the Gods, and even learned to control Nero’s power to help them fight. Still, the God of Darkness sought revenge, and waited for the day he could escape and fight once again. And so our story begins, here on the eve of disaster…
